6. Installing the Converter
Note: The Media Converter is hot-swappable.
⇒
Wear a grounding device for electrostatic discharge
For as a standalone unit:
4 5 6
⇒
Verify the AC-DC adapter conforms to your country
AC power requirement and insert the power plug
For as a slide-in unit:
⇒
Verify the media converter is the right model and conforms
to the chassis slot. The Media Converter and Rack are built
to match in dimensions, DC jack, DC receptacle and power
safety
⇒
5VDC power jack on converter back, and
carefully slide in and plug to 19" rack +5VDC power
receptacle
Attach the single fiber cable. Install 1310nm and
1550nm models at the ends of single fiber cable.
Fiber
Port
Default: AUTO. The "Fiber Mode" must be set to
"FORCE"
when you intend to connect
a pair of
GE-C351, or GE-C351 to GM-C351
via fiber
optic cable at both ends of a fiber connection.
Attach TP Cat. 5 cable to TP port.

The 1000 TP port supports AUTO MDI-X sensing
(e.g. either MDI-X or MDI-II).

8. DC Jack and AC-DC Power Adapter
The DC jack's central post is 2.5mm wide; it conforms to the
DC receptacle (2.5mm) on the 19-inch Converter Rack slot.
Keep the AC-DC adapter as spare parts when Media Converter
is installed in a 19-inch Media Converter Rack.
Warning:
⎯
The "Fiber Mode" must be set to
"FORCE"
when you
intend to connect
a pair of GM-C351, or GM-C351 to
GE-C351
via fiber optic cable at both ends of a fiber
connection. It does not work if "Fiber Mode" is set to
"AUTO" in this connection.
⎯
For
other/different model converter fiber connection
,
both local and remote fiber mode must be set to
an
identical mode
("AUTO or FORCE")
according to their
operation/configuration.
Refer to the corresponding
device/converter's Technical Manual for proper setting.
