FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the media converter fails, isolate and correct the failure by determining the
answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
Is the Power LED on the media converter illuminated?
1.
NO
•
Is the media converter inserted properly into the chassis?
•
Is the power cord properly installed in the chassis and at the
external power source?
•
Does the external power source provide power?
•
Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312.
YES
•
Proceed to step 2.
2.
Is the SDC (Signal Detect/Copper) LED illuminated?
NO
•
Check UTP cables for proper connection.
•
Contact Technical Support at (800) 260-1312.
YES
•
Proceed to step 3.
3.
Is the SDF (Signal Detect/Fiber) LED illuminated?
NO
•
Check fiber cables for proper connection.
•
Verify that TX and RX cables on media converter are connected to
RX and TX ports, respectively, on the other 100BASE-FX device.
•
