LLF/LFP (DIP-Switch 2)
: Enabling LLF/LFP allows UTP/STP link failures to be
reported to the fiber side and also allow Fiber link failures to be reported to the
UTP/STP side. Therefore, the LLF/LFP feature is available in both UTP/STP and Fiber
side.
Media mode (DIP-Switch 4)
: When media mode is enabled (ON), it operates with
minimum latency. The transmission flow does not wait until the entire frame is ready,
but instead forwards the received data immediately while data is being received. The
TP port should be forced at 100M in this application. When the DIP-Switch is set at
switching mode (OFF), the function is the same as a Switch/Hub.
Note
Please don’t change the DIP-switch setting when UTP/STP or
fiber port is transmitting or receiving data. It may cause data
errors. If you change the DIP-switch setting, please power off the
media converter and power on again to make the setting
effective.
