Installation
The module comes equipped with a bank of DIP switches and
jumpers for setting configuration. The default dip switch settings
(all switches UP) and default jumper settings will work for most
installations. For information on the management options of the
CM-1110 module, refer to the MCR-MGT Module User’s Guide.
The following steps are used to configure the Perle 10/100/1000
Ethernet Media Converter Module:
1. Insert SFP Module. (SFP Models only)
2. Set the Auto-MDIX jumper setting. (optional).
3. Set the Auto-Config jumper. (CM-1110 only) (optional)
4. Set the DIP switch settings (optional).
5. Insert the Media Converter Module into the chassis.
6. Connect the copper cable.
7. Connect the fiber cable.
Auto-MDIX Jumper
Note: The factory settings for Auto-MDIX will work for most
installations, but if a settings change is needed, follow the
procedure below.
The AUTO-MDIX jumper (J6) is located on the upper edge, at the
midpoint of the module (see diagram below for labelling). By
covering or strapping pins 2 and 3(AUTO), the C-1110 and CM-
1110 will automatically detect the Ethernet cable’s polarity and
configure itself as either an MDI or an MDIX device. By covering or
strapping pins 1 and 2(MDIX), the C-1110 and CM-1110 will
operate as an MDIX device
Removing the strapping is the same as AUTO.
Note: The default jumper setting is AUTO
