Installation
DIN-rail mount
The SISTF10xx-110-LR(T) media converter includes an aluminum DIN-rail
mounting plate attached to the back panel of the converter. To mount the
converter onto a DIN-rail:
1.
Insert the top of the DIN-Rail into the upper slot of the mounting plate.
The stiff metal spring should be positioned behind the DIN-rail.
2.
Push down and rotate the converter to snap it into place on the DIN-rail
as shown.
Note:
This device must be grounded to a well-grounded mounting
surface such as a metal plate. Install the grounding wire prior to
connecting any other device.
Ground the media converter
Grounding the device helps limit the effects of noise due to electromagnetic
interference (EMI). The grounding screw is located on the top panel next to
the terminal block.
To ground the media converter:
1.
Connect one end of the grounding wire
(not provided)
to the grounding
screw by looping one end of the grounding wire under the star washer.
2.
Tighten the grounding screw with a phillips-head screwdriver.
3.
Connect the other end of the grounding wire to earth ground.

Install the fiber cable
1.
Locate or build 100Base-FX fiber cable with male, two-stranded TX to RX
connectors installed at both ends.
2.
Connect the fiber cables to the 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.
Install the copper cable
The AutoCross feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDI-
X) copper cable to be used when connecting devices via the RJ-45 port.
1.
Locate or build 10Base-T or 100Base-TX copper cables with male, RJ-45
connectors installed at both ends.
2.
Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on
the media converter.
3.
Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45
port on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).
