1000BASE-T TO MM SX OR SM LX MEDIA CONVERTERS
4. Connect cables from the network partner devices to the converter’s front-
panel ports. (The front-panel LNK LED associated with the port should
light.)
You can also mount the converter on a vertical surface, such as a wall. Simply use
the converter’s underside as a template to measure and mark the holes’ position
onto the surface where you will install the converter. Then use two screws (not
included) to mount the converter firmly in place.
WARNING
Install the converter away from damp or wet locations, and away from
very hot surfaces. These environments can have a detrimental effect on
both the converter and the cables. An ideal location is a cool, dry
environment such as a typical equipment room.
4.6 Powering On the Unit
The converter uses a 12-VDC, 0.8-amp, 50–60-Hz external power supply.
1. Insert the power cable plug directly into the receptacle located on the
converter’s back panel.
2. Plug the power adapter into an available socket.
3. As the converter is powered on, verify that the rear-panel PWR LED is lit. If
not, check that the power cable. Is it correctly and securely plugged in?
NOTE
For international use, you may need to change the AC power adapter
cord. You must use a power cord that has been approved for the
receptacle type and electrical current in your country.
4.7 Connecting Fiber Cables
Recommendations for what you should and should not do when installing fiber
cables are listed below. Remember—cables are the defining factor in network
performance.
1. Try to maintain a minimum bend radius of four times the UTP cable’s
diameter and 100 times the fiberoptic cable’s diameter.
2. Try not to allow the cable to twist too much; this creates a strain on the
internal cables.
