Troubles shooting
Verify that the right power cord/adapter (DC 48V) is being used, please do not use a
power adapter with DC output voltage higher than 48V, or it will burn the converter.
Select the proper UTP/STP cable to construct your network. Please check that the
right cable is being used. Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair
(STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100
Ω
Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for 10Mbps
connections, 100
Ω
Category 5 cable for 100Mbps connections, or 100
Ω
Category
5e/above cable for 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 through panel indicators, which describe common problems
users may encounter and where users can find possible solutions.
If the power indicator does not light up when the power cord is plugged in, users
may have a problem with the power cord. Check for loose power connections,
power losses or surges at power outlet. If you still cannot resolve the problem,
contact the local dealer for assistance.
If the Industrial Media Converter LED indicators are normal and the connected
cables are correct but the packets still do not transmit. Please check your system’s
Ethernet devices’ configuration or status.
