Page 3: Installation
The default DIP switch settings (all switches in the UP position) and jumper settings will work for most installations.. The following steps are used to configure the Perle Fast Ethernet Media Converter Module: 1. Set the Auto-MDIX jumper (optional). - Page 4 Auto-Config Jumper (CM-100 only) The Auto-Config jumper (J6) is located just below the Auto-MDIX jumper (see above). Refer to the diagram below for labelling. This jumper only applies to CM-100 modules. Strapping pins 1 and 2 of the jumper will set the module in SW mode and strapping pins 2 and 3 will set it in Auto Config mode.

Page 5: Dip Switches
DIP Switches DIP Switch Settings Auto Negotiation (Switch 1) Switch Mode Position Up (default) Auto Down Auto: In this mode of operation the Media Converter Module will negotiate Ethernet parameters on the copper connection. This will ensure the most optimal connection parameters will be in effect. If the copper link partner does not support Auto negotiation, the C-100 and CM-100 will default to 100 Mbps and Half Duplex mode. - Page 6 Link Mode (Switch 2) Switch Mode Position Up (default) Link Pass-Through Mode Down Standard Mode Link Pass-Through: In this mode, the link state on one connection is directly reflected through the Media Converter Module to the other connection. If link is lost on one of the connections, then the other link will be brought down.
- Page 7 If the Media Converter has been set to Link Pass-Through mode, the effect will be the same as FEF, since the link loss on the fiber receiver will bring down the copper link, which will in turn cause the transmit fiber link to be brought down.
- Page 8 Unused (Switch 4) Pause (Switch 5) Switch Mode Position Up (default) Enabled Down Disabled Enabled: When Auto Negotiation has been set to Auto (SW 1), the Media Converter Module will use this setting for its Ethernet parameter negotiation on the copper connection. Disable: The Media Converter Module will not negotiate support for the Pause feature.

Page 9: Installing Or Replacing Media Converter Modules
Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the Module(s) and/or chassis. The Perle Media Converter Modules can be installed in any available slot and in any order within the MCR Chassis. Installing or Replacing a Media Converter Module 1. - Page 10 7. Remove the dust cap from the fiber connector and connect the fiber and copper cables. Removing Media Convert Modules 1. Loosen the captive retainer screw on the front of the Media Converter Module and gently pull the module out. 2.

Page 11: Installing The Copper Cable
Installing the Copper Cable Locate 100Base-TX compliant copper cables with male, RJ- 45 connectors installed at both ends. Connect the RJ-45 cable between the Perle Media Converter Module and the device. Note: The Perle Media Converter Module supports Auto-MDIX, therefore a straight-through or cross over Ethernet cable may be used. -
Page 12: Operation
Operation Status LED The Perle Fast Ethernet Media Converter modules have three single color status LEDs located on the face plate of the module. PWR - Power/Test On: Power is on, module operating normally. Blinking slowly: the module is in loopback mode. -
Page 13: Other Features
Other Features Auto-MDIX: Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface) detects the signalling on the 100BASE-T interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection. Error Recovery: In certain configurations, and under specific conditions where the Media Converter Module brings down a link to convey status, there is potential for a deadlock. -
Page 14: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting General Ensure the module is correctly seated to the backplane in the MCR Chassis. The PWR LED should be on solid. Ensure both devices on either end of the fiber are compatible. If using a simplex fiber connection, ensure that you have both an Upstream (U) and Downstream (D) Media Converter. - Page 15 Method 2: The fiber connection can also be verified by configuring the remote Media Converter for loopback mode. The LKF LEDs on both Media Converters should be lit. Data should pass through the local converter, over the fiber connection to the remote Media Converter.
