Installation
1. Mounting
Mount the media converter to flat surface of DIN35. All
the necessary holders are included.
2. Connect supply
According to the pictures bellow, connect power supply in
the range 10-60VDC or 10-30VAC. When supplying the
terminal device with PoE/PoE+ it is necessary to supply
the media converter with the voltage in the range 48-
57VDC. Connection of supply is indicated by LED PWR
switching on.
3. Grounding of overvoltage protections
To ensure proper functioning of overvoltage protections
we recommend their grounding through supply terminal
GNF(PE). When grounding please follow these rules:
- grounding resistance must be up to 10Ω.
- the length of the wire to the earth point must be
kept as short as possible.
4. Insert optical module
Any SFP module complying with MSA requirements
(agreement of SFP modules manufacturers) can be
inserted into the SFP slot. For modules with duplex
transmission over one fiber (wavelength multiplex) we
must ensure that the optical modules are connected
correctly to each other. That means that e.g. for WDM
modules METEL we can interconnect W4 with W5. We
can’t interconnect W4 with W4 or W5 with W5.
Signal LED
LINK/ACT
– Blinking indicates activity on FO.
PoE Status
– Blinking indicates detection and
classification of terminal device. If the LED is on,
terminal device is supplied from PoE (only for switched
on PoE supply in a version with PoE).
1000-X
– If the LED is on it indicates speed 1000Mb/s, if
it’s off the speed is 100Mb/s.
PWR/ALARM
– Constant light indicates power supply.
If the LED is blinking the device is in Alarm state. UTP or
FO failure.
DIP switch functions description
1 – POE Enable/Disable (PoE Only) On/Off
– Switch to
position On to switch on the PoE supply on Gigabit
Ethernet port.
2 – JUMBO Packet On/Off
– Switch to position On to
enable JUMBO packets support of up to 10240
bytes size.
3 – UTP Link Check On/Off
– Activate / deactivate
monitoring of activity on Gigabit Ethernet port.
4 – FIBER Link Check On/Off
– Activate / deactivate
monitoring of activity on optical port.
5 – FAR END FAULT Check On/Off
Activation/deactivation of
FAR END FAULT Check
function.
Both media converters METEL – the function can be
used only with UTP Link* or FIBER Link* and speed
100 and 1000Mbps.
Media converter METEL connected to a media
converter/switch of another manufacturer – the
function can be used only with UTP Link* or FIBER
Link* and speed 100Mbps. At speed 1000Mbps only
function LINK PATH THROUGH is applied.
* it’s not possible to watch both ports
simultaneously
6 – SPEED 100/1000 (User)
– When using other SFP
modules than we supply it is necessary to set the
speed the module is working at.
ON
- speed 100Mbps
OFF
- speed 1000Mbps.
Note2:
When using our supplied SFP modules no
manual speed settings are needed and the device
automatically detects the speed.
Note3: With every change on a DIP switch the
device must be switched off/on in order for the
changes to be applied.
