Troubleshoot the Fiber link
The media converter supports Gigabit fiber devices and cables only. It does not
support 10/100Mbps fiber network devices or SFPs.
• The fiber port supports an auto-negotiate (default) or
FORCE
(forced) mode setting.
When connected to third-party equipment (for example, a Cisco switch) you might
encounter fiber link problems. In this scenario, try setting the DIP switch positions
to the
FORCE
(forced) mode setting, as well as the
FULL
(full duplex) setting. Many
switches do not support auto-negotiation on the fiber port(s).
