Installation
Install these Models in Pairs
The following media converter pairs are to be installed in the same network,
where one serves as the local converter and the other a remote converter
(either
converter can be installed in either location)
.
155 Mb/s network:
• CFMFF1329-200 and CFMFF1329-201
• CFMFF1329-202 and CFMFF1329-203
• CFMFF1429-200 and CFMFF1429-201
• CFMFF1429-202 and CFMFF1429-203
622 Mb/s network:
• CFMFF1329-210 and CFMFF1329-211
• CFMFF1329-212 and CFMFF1329-213
• CFMFF1429-210 and CFMFF1429-211
• CFMFF1429-212 and CFMFF1429-213
1.2 GB/s network:
• CFMFF1329-220 and CFMFF1329-221
• CFMFF1329-222 and CFMFF1329-223
Install Slide-in-module in PointSystem™ chassis
CAUTION: Slots in the PointSystem™ chassis without a slide-in-module MUST
have a protective plate covering the empty slot for Class B compliance.
The media converter slide-in-modules may be installed in any slot, in any order.
To install the slide-in-module:
1.
Carefully slide the slide-in-module into the slot, aligning the module’s
circuit board with the slot guides.
2.
Ensure that the module is firmly seated in the chassis slot.
3.
Secure the module by pushing its fastern in and turning it clockwise.

Install the fiber cable
CAUTION: Both connections
(Port 1 and Port 2)
to the CFMFFxxxx-2xx media
converter must be the same network speed and network protocol. Failure to
observe this caution could cause data transfers to fail.
1.
Locate or build IEEE 802.3™ compliant fiber cable with male, two-
stranded TX to RX connectors installed at both ends.
2.
Connect the fiber cables to the CFMFFxxxx-2xx media converter as
described:
•
Connect the male TX cable connector to the female TX port.
•
Connect the male RX cable connector to the female RX port.
3.
Connect the fiber cables to the other device
(another media converter,
hub, etc.)
as described:
•
Connect the male TX cable connector to the female RX port.
•
Connect the male RX cable connector to the female TX port.
Power the Media Converter
The media converter is powered through the Transition Networks
PointSystem™
chassis.
Delay Times
Network worst-case delay through the CFMFFxxxx-2xx converter:
623 Mbps – 1 Gbps
1 nsec
156 Mbps – 622 Mbps
2 nsec
125-155 Mbps
3 nsec
<125 Mbps
7 nsec
For example, in Ethernet environments, ensure that the network conforms to the
512-bit Rule by using the above numbers to determine the 'bit-time' delay, as:
