McLIMs include one RJ45 connector for the twisted pair port and one pair of fiber
connectors (or one small form factor fiber connector) for the fiber port. McLIMs are
also available in single-strand fiber versions which include one SC fiber connector.
Each McLIM requires one slot in a MediaConverter chassis.
About McGigabit
McGigabit is a Gigabit Ethernet module which provides a single-conversion between
1000Base-SX (multi-mode) or LX (single-mode) fiber and 1000Base-T copper.
McGigabit offers plug-and-play operation, and always operates at Full-Duplex.
McGigabit modules include one RJ45 connector for the twisted pair port and one pair
of SC fiber connectors. Single-strand single-mode fiber versions are also available.
Each McGigabit requires one slot in a MediaConverter chassis.
This manual refers to McPIM, McLIM and McGigabit modules as "Media Conversion
Modules" except where differences require indication.
Configuring Media Conversion Modules
Before installing, you can configure McPIMs and McLIMs for a variety of features (see
diagrams/chart for specifics). McLIM TP-TX/FX and McGigabit have plug-and-play
operation and require no configuration. The illustrations on the following page show
the location of the configuration jumpers and switches on the various Media
Conversion Modules.
