FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the Media Converter fails, isolate and correct the failure by determining the answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
1.Is the P(o)w(e)r LED on the Media Converter illuminated?
NO
•Is the power adapter the proper voltage and cycle frequency for the AC outlet?
NOTE: Refer to the “Power Supply Requirements” on page 7.
•Is the power adapter properly installed in the Media Converter and in the grounded AC outlet?
•Does the grounded AC outlet provide power?
•Contact Technical Support at (800)
YES
•Proceed to step 2.
2.Is the RXF LED illuminated?
NO
•Disconnect and reconnect the fiber cable to restart the initialization process.
•Contact Technical Support: (800)
YES
•Proceed to step 3.
3.Is the RXC LED illuminated?
NO
•Disconnect and reconnect the copper cable to restart the initialization process.
•Restart the terminal device(s) to restart the initialization process.
•Contact Technical Support: (800)
YES
•Proceed to step 4.
4.Does the data fail to move across the link, even though both LEDs are illuminated?
YES
