About the McBasic-Gigabit  

McBasic-Gigabit is a low-cost, preconfigured, IEEE 802.3 single-conversion media 
converter that converts 1000Base-TX twisted pair to 1000Base-SX multi-mode or 
1000Base-LX single-mode fiber.  It is available with one RJ-45 connector for the 
twisted pair port and an SC connector for the fiber port.  

McBasic-Gigabit is also available in a single-strand fiber version which allows two 
wavelengths to share one fiber strand — Full-Duplex data travels on different 
wavelengths (1310 nm and 1550 nm) — doubling the capacity of fiber.  The 
McBasic-Gigabit includes one RJ-45 connector and one SC fiber connector. 

NOTE 

All McBasic-Gigabit units, including 1310 nm single-mode (TX/LX), 850 nm multi-
mode fiber (TX/SX) and single-strand versions (TX/SSLX), will be referred to as 
McBasic-Gigabit throughout this installation guide except where differences need to 
be indicated. 

Configuration Instructions 

McBasic-Gigabit has user-configurable features located on the PCB board.  Please 
refer to the board diagram and the table for available features.   

To access the McBasic-Gigabit board for configuration, loosen the two screws on the 
front of the unit. Slide the board out of the enclosure (faceplate is attached).  
Configure, then slide the board back into the enclosure and tighten the screws.  

Following is the McBasic-Gigabit PCB board used to configure the unit.
