maximum segment length can be determined by 
measuring the segment attenuation and comparing it 
to the worst case budget. 

 

Fiber Optic Segment Attenuation

 

At an 850-nm wavelength, the segment attenuation 
can be no more than the following:

13.0 dB for 50/125

Operating Environment

 

Operating Range:

 5˚ to 40˚C (41˚ to 104˚F)

Heat Output:

 17 Btu/hr

Humidity Range:

 5 to 95% (non-condensing)

Safety

 

Designed in accordance with UL1950, CSA 22.2 
No. 950, and EN 60950.

 

Emissions

 

Meets the requirements of EN 55022 Class A; FCC 
Part 15, Class A; and VCCI, Class I emission limits.

 

Immunity

 

Meets the requirements of EN 50082-1, including 
Electrostatic Discharge (IEC 801-2), Radiated 
Susceptibility (IEC 801-3), and Electric Fast Transient 
(IEC 801-4).

 

Note

 

: It is the responsibility of the person who sells the 

system to which the TPFOT-2 adapter will be a part to 
ensure that the total system meets allowed limits of 
conducted and radiated emissions.

 

INSTALLATION

 

Unpack the TPFOT-2 adapter and verify that the 
following items were received.

One TPFOT-2 10BASE-T to 10BASE-FL/FOIRL       

Extended Media Adapter

One wall mount transformer with power cord

One 1.5-inch x 3-inch Velcro strip

Two 6-inch tie wraps

Two cable mounts

 

Mounting the TPFOT-2 Adapter

 

Use the adhesive backed Velcro strips to attach the 
TPFOT-2 adapter to a convenient mounting surface.

 

Connecting and Applying Power

 

Caution: 

 

Do not use a power cord/converter other 

than the one shipped with the TPFOT-2 adapter. Not 
all converters supply the same voltage and current. 
Using the wrong converter can damage the adapter.

 

The TPFOT-2 adapter has an ac-to-dc converter. 
Connect the TPFOT-2 adapter to an appropriate ac 
power source. The TPFOT-2 LANVIEW PWR indicator 
should light, indicating that the TPFOT-2 adapter is 
receiving power and is ready for operation. 

 

Attaching the Fiber Optic Cables

 

Connect one fiber optic cable from the TPFOT-2 TX 
port to the Ethernet device RX port. Connect another 
fiber optic cable from the TPFOT-2 RX port to the 
Ethernet device TX port.

 

Attaching a Twisted Pair Cable

 

The TPFOT-2 adapter has a switch to select either a 
crossover (X) or straight-through (=) pin configuration 
for the RJ45 port. When attaching a twisted pair cable, 
check the pin configuration of the RJ45 crossover 
connector on the device to be connected. Make sure 
that the twisted pair TX and RX signal pairs connect 
as follows:

 

Cable Strain Relief

 

Secure the data cables and the power cord to reduce 
the possibility of network interruption. The TPFOT-2 
comes with adhesive backed mounting brackets and 
tie wraps for securing the TPFOT-2 cables.

 

Note:

 

 The TPFOT-2 power source is to be certified 

for use in the country of installation with a standard 
(SELV) output of 12 Vdc, and capable of providing a 
minimum output of 800 mA (connector polarity: cen-
ter pin positive, sleeve negative). The output connec-
tor is to be compatible with TOTAL POWER or 
MORFOR RJ-01-E connectors.
