OVERVIEW
Thank you for choosing the 1000 Base Gigabit Ethernet Media
Converter, The Converter introduced here provides one channel
media conversion between 1000BASE-T, 1000BASE-SX/LX and
1000BASE-SX/LX through mini-GBIC (WGT-705A only).
About Media Converter
Media Converter utilizes a network technology specified by IEEE
802.3ab and IEEE 802.3z 1000BASE- T/FX standards.
About Link Pass Through
When LLCF is enabled, the ports do not transmit a link signal
until they receive a link signal from the opposite port. Link loss is
"carried forward" to the managed switch or hub that is sending the
link. LLCF can be used for either the copper or fiber ports.
When LLR is enabled, the fiber port's transmitter shuts down if
its receiver fails to detect a valid receive link. If one of the optical
conductors is bad, the card with LLR enabled will return a no link
condition to its link partner. LLR is used to detect link problems
only on the fiber port.
