C/E-PSW-SX-01

Connecting Twisted-Pair Copper Cable to UTP/STP
Connector (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX)

Ensure that the correct cable type is installed to support the highest speed
and mode of operation to be selected. Though Category 3 cable is
adequate for the 10BASE-T installation, Category 5 cable is strongly
recommended, since Category 3 cable can NOT be used for 100BASE-TX.

10BASE-T AND THE ETHERNET COLLISION DOMAIN

Refer to the 5-Segment Rule (page 6) before installing half-duplex
10BASE-T cable.

Installing full-duplex twisted-pair cable avoids collision domain
considerations; distances remain 

100 meters. 

100BASE-TX AND THE FAST ETHERNET COLLISION DOMAIN

Refer to the 512-Bit Rule (page 7) before installing half-duplex
100BASE-TX cable.

Installing full-duplex twisted-pair cable avoids collision domain
considerations; distances remain 

100 meters. 

NOTE: A Fast Ethernet collision domain can have ONLY ONE
CLASS I repeater OR TWO CLASS II repeaters.

INSTALLING CABLE
To install 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX cable:

1. Locate or build 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX cables:

803.2 (10BASE-T) or 803.2u (100BASE-TX) compliant (page

11)

with Straight-through or Crossover RJ-45 cable/connectors as

required for site installation (page 7)

with RJ-45 plug connectors installed at both cable ends.

2. Connect RJ-45 plug connector at one end of 10BASE-T or

100BASE-TX cable to bridging media converter RJ-45 jack
connector.

3. Connect RJ-45 plug connector at other end of 10BASE-T or

100BASE-TX cable to RJ-45 jack connector on network device.

Installing Slide-In-Module(s)

CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge
precautions when installing Media Converter Slide-in-Module(s) in the
Media Conversion Center. Failure to observe this caution could result in
damage to, and subsequent failure of, the Media Converter Slide-in-
Module(s).
NOTE: Slide-in-Modules can be installed in any installation slot, in any
order.
To install the Media Converter Slide-in-Module in the E-MCC-1600
chassis:

1. Remove Media Converter Slide-in-Module protective plate from

selected installation slot by removing two screws that secure plate to
front of E-MCC-1600. 

2. Carefully slide Media Converter Slide-in-Module into installation

slot, aligning Media Converter Slide-in-Module with installation
guides. 

NOTE: Ensure that the Media Converter Slide-in-Module is seated
firmly against the backplane.

3. Secure Slide-in-Module to E-MCC-1600 chassis by rotating captive

screw attached to Slide-in-Module clockwise into chassis.
