Installation
Notes:
• To avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage, it is recommended you handle the
product while wearing an ESD wrist grounding strap, or touch a conductive surface
(such as metal) to discharge any potential ESD prior to handling the product.
• Before installation, verify your fiber equipment’s wavelength (850 nm or 1310 nm)
and mode type (Single or Multi) matches that of the N785-P01-Series or
N785-INT-Series Media Converter.
1.
Ensure all equipment in the installation is powered off.
2.
(N785-P01-SFP and N785-INT-PSFP Models Only):
Install a user-supplied SFP transceiver that matches your fiber equipment’s
credentials.
Note:
Your fiber equipment’s wavelength and mode type must match that of the
N785-P01-Series or N785-INT-Series Media Converter.
3.
Using existing fiber cable from your network infrastructure, connect the
media converter to your fiber network.
4.
With a user-supplied Cat5e/Cat6 cable (up to 100 m / 328 ft.), connect
your IEEE 802.3 af/at PoE-compliant device to the media converter’s
10/100/1000Base-T UTP port.
Note:
If your PoE-compliant device is farther than 100 m (328 ft.) away, moving
DIP switch 3 (10M) to the ON position allows you to run an additional 230 m
(750 ft.) of Cat5e/6 cable (up to 330 m / 1082 ft. away in total) at 10 Mbps
speeds only.
5.
Connect the included power supply to the media converter.
6.
Turn on power to all equipment in the installation.
