This User Manual describes the functions of
the
DFCS
XGT+ Rev 1.
Product Overview
The
DFCS
XGT+ is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet media converter with one 10GBASE-T RJ-45 port
and one pluggable transceiver port that provides copper-to-fiber and copper-to-copper media
conversion. Copper-to-fiber conversion is achieved with XFP or SFP+ fiber transceivers.
Copper-to-copper conversion is achieved with a CX4 XFP transceiver.
The XGT+ supports high-power (power level 4) XFP transceivers, and the latest generation
of wavelength tunable DWDM XFP transceivers.

SW1 - P1 LOOPBACK “P1-LB”
When this DIP-switch is in the DOWN position (factory default), port P1 loopback is disabled.
When this DIP-switch is in the UP “P1-LB” position, loopback is enabled on port P1. When
enabled, all data received on port P1 is transmitted out port P1 and the connection between
port P1 and port P2 is interrupted.
NOTE: For the XFP model, simultaneous loopback of port P1 and port P2 requires the XFP
transceiver to support lineside loopback capability.
