Perle 10G Media Converter module Installation Guide
2
Overview
This document contains instructions necessary for the installation
and operation of the Perle 10G Media Converter modules that are
used in conjunction with a Perle Media Converter chassis. Each
module contains two pluggable transceiver ports that permit
connections of SFP+ fiber, XFP fiber and copper modules. The C
model modules are the unmanaged modules and the CM models
are the managed modules. For information on the management
options of the CM modules refer to the Perle MCR-MGT User’s
Guide that came with your Perle Management Module. The Cx-
10G modules support low power transceivers, whereas the Cx-
10G-XTSH and Cx-10G-XTXH support high power (power level 4)
transceivers. The high power modules take two slots within a Perle
Media Converter chassis. All combination of modules within the
chassis cannot exceed the chassis power input consumption. The
full power consumption for Perle Media Converter chassis can be
found on the Perle website.
Note: The Cx-10G media converter modules can be populated
with two 1G fiber/copper modules to operate at 1G. However with
1G modules the Cx-10G does not support the Loopback Auto
Detect feature.
