Ethernet Fiber Wiring Guidelines
Depending on the model these industrial Ethernet switches may include one, two or four
fiber optic ports. All 100 Mbps fiber ports are available with dual SC or ST multimode style
connectors. Refer to the technical specifications for details.
All 1000 Mbps fiber ports are provided as SFP (small form pluggable). These accept plug-in
fiber transceivers that have an LC style connector. They are available with either multimode
or singlemode transceivers. Refer to the technical specifications for details.
For each fiber port there is a transmit (TX) and receive (RX) signal. When making your
fiber optic connections, make sure that the transmit (TX) port of the switch connects to the
receive (RX) port of the other device, and the receive (RX) port of the switch connects to the
transmit (TX) port of the other device.
Use standard fiber optic wiring techniques (not covered by this manual) to make your
connections. The corresponding ACT/LNK LED will be ON solid or flashing when you
have made a proper connection.
