NOTE: Dip switches 1, 2, 3, and 4 (in the Config. Switches set) apply ONLY to twisted-pair copper port 2 (TP2).

4. Fiber Mode (Fiber Port 1)

Up (Full-Duplex)- The cable distances for fiber port 1 (F1) are constrained by the cable requirements (see pages 1 and 2).

Down (Half-Duplex)- The cable distances for fiber port 1 (F1) are constrained by the 512-Bit Rule (see page 9).

are then used to set the twisted-pair rate and mode.

5. AutoCross

Up (Enable) - The media converter connects automatically to either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair copper cable.

Down (Disable) - Either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair copper cable must be installed, according to the site requirements

4. Monitor for Twisted-Pair Port 2 (TP2)

Up (Off) - The twisted-pair port 2 (TP2) functions as directed by switches 1, 2, and 3.

Down (On) - The twisted-pair port 2 (TP2) functions as a “sniffer” port and transmits all packets received from ports F1 and TP1.
