Connections
The module functions as a 3 port Ethernet switch with 2 standard RJ45
electrical Ethernet ports and two fiber Ethernet ports using LC optical
connections.
Note
a separate RX and TX fiber link is needed between
locations. Two versions of this module are available:
OET 1510
- which uses a Singlemode 1310nm SFP for up to 10km
OET 1510 MM
- which uses a Multimode 850nm SFP for up to 550m
Please use the correct type of fiber cable with the module.
Operation
The module maintains a constant 1Gbit fiber communication speed
regardless of the speed of the 2 electrical ports. The electrical Ethernet
ports can be configured independently using the module dip switch if
required. This facilitates the use with older legacy electrical networks.
Power Lead Strain Relief
The module has a small hole in the case located above the power
connection to prevent the power lead being accidentally pulled out.
Use the supplied tie-wrap and secure the lead as shown below.
The electrical port speeds can be set to
automatic mode (10/100/1000) or
forced to 10Mbit if required. It is also
possible to configure automatic or
manual crossover for the electrical
ports (forced manual crossover is
sometimes needed for older networks)
Note.
If fiber RX LED is OFF this indicates no signal is present,
signal to weak or is a non a valid signal.
Power
The module requires a 12V DC power input and a LED is provided
to confirm power is connected. A power supply is provided, but if
applying your own power, please provide a clean 7-15V DC power
input (12VDC nominal). Power consumption is approx 2.2W
Optional Mounting Bracket
The optional RFR 1001 mounting bracket can be used to permanently
mount the module on any flat surface or on 19” rack rails.
