5. Network Application
This segment provides an example of an industrial Ethernet media converter application
(Figure 5.1).
6. Trouble Shooting
Always verify the right power cord or adapter is being used. Never use a power supply or
adapter with a non-compliant DC output voltage or it will burn the equipment.
Select the proper UTP or STP cable in order to construct the network. Use an unshielded
twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100Ω Category
5e for 10/100/1000Mbps. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does
not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
Diagnosing LED Indicators: To assist in identifying problems, the media converter can be
easily monitored with the LED indicators which help to identity if any problems exist.
o
Please refer to the LED Indicators section for LED light indication.
If the power indicator LED does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, the user
may have a problem with the power cord. Check for loose power connections, power losses
or surges at the power outlet.
o
Please contact Antaira for technical support service, if the problem still cannot
be resolved.
If the industrial media converter LED indicators are normal and the connected cables are
correct but the packets still cannot transmit, please check the system’s Ethernet devices’
configuration or status.
