Both media converters function at 4Mb/s or 16Mb/s in half-duplex mode or,
when connected to devices capable of full-duplex connectivity, in full-duplex
mode for up to 32Mb/s total throughput.

NOTE: The fiber interface LEDs are NOT illuminated until the twisted-pair side
has been initialized and asserts a phantom voltage to the fiber. (See a description
of the activity of the Token Ring twisted-pair to fiber signal in “Media Converters
in the Network” on page 4.)

FCC Regulations

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class A digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be
required to correct the interference at the user’s own expense.

Canadian Regulations

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise for digital apparatus set out on
the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
