5. Troubleshooting
•
Verify that you are using the right power cord/adapter (DC 12-48V), please don't use the power adapter with DC output
higher than 48V, or it will burn this converter down.
•
Select the proper UTP/STP cable to construct your network. Please check that you are using the right cable. Use
unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections: 100
Ω
Category 3, 4 or 5 cables
for 10Mbps connections or 100
Ω
Category 5 cable for 100Mbps connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-
pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
•
Diagnosing LED Indicators: the unit can be easily monitored through panel indicators to assist in identifying problems,
which describes common problems you may encounter and where you can find possible solutions.
•
If the power indicator does not light up when the power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem with power cord.
Then check for loose power connections, power losses or surges at power outlet. IF you still cannot resolve the problem,
contact your local dealer for assistance.
•
If the LED indicators are normal and the connected cables are correct and the packets still cannot transmit, please check
your system's Ethernet devices' configuration or status.
