Link Lost Forwarding (DIP-Switch 1): When LLF is enabled, it will allow a copper port link failure to
be reported to the SFP side and also allow an SFP link failure to be reported to the copper side.
Therefore, a link loss forward feature is provided in both copper and SFP ports.
Pure Converter mode (DIP-Switch 2): When pure converter mode is enabled (on), the media
converter operates with the minimum latency. The transmission flow does not wait until the entire
frame is ready, but instead it forwards the received data immediately after the data has been
received. (The RJ45 port should be forced at 1000M in this application). When DIP-Switch is in
Switch Converter mode (off), the media converter will function the same as a Switch in store-and-
forward mode.
Note: a) Please don’t change the DIP-switch settings when the copper or SFP port is transmitting
or receiving data. It may cause some data error.
b) Please power off then power on when you change the DIP-switch settings.
