This product is intended to be mounted to a
well-grounded mounting surface such as a metal
panel.
FAULT: The two middle contacts of the
6-contact terminal block connector are
used to detect both power faults and port
faults. The two wires attached to the Fault
contacts form an open circuit when:
1. The Media Converter has lost power
from one of the DC power inputs.
2. One of the ports for which the
corresponding PORT ALARM Dip
Switch is set to ON is not properly
connected.
If neither of these two conditions occurs,
the Fault circuit will be closed.
The
STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive DC
wires into the V-/V+ terminals.
STEP 2: To keep the DC wires from pulling
loose, use a small flat-blade screwdriver to
tighten the wire-clamp screws on the front
of the terminal block connector.
STEP 3: Insert the plastic terminal block
connector prongs into the terminal block
receptor, which is located on the Media
Converter's top panel.
