2 INSTALLATION

To perform a link test:

1.Verify that all network devices connected to the fiber-optic ports on the Multichannel Media Converter are powered ON and operational.

2.Cycle power to the Multichannel Media Converter by ptessing the RESET botton, if preseny, or bydisconnecting the power cord from the external AC outlet and then reconnecting the power cord to the external AC outlet.

Verify that the Multichannel Media Converter is powered ON and is operational:

Verify that the Multichannel Media Converter MAIN LED is a steady amber, indicating that the unit is receiving power.

NORM

TEST

If an optional redundant power supply is installed, verify that the BCKP LED is a steady green.

Verify that the power supply fan(s) is/are operational.

3.For each set of six (6) channels, set the Link Test switch (DIP switch #7) to the TEST position.

The TEST LED(s) at the front right panel should be amber.

4.Verify that the F-LNKLED for EACH Multichannel Media Converter fiber-optic port with installed fiber-optic cable is illuminated, indicating that a link exists between the fiber optic port on the Multichannel Media Converter and the network device connected to the channel port.

5.Return the Link Test switch (DIP switch #7) to the NORMAL position.

2.6.3Installing Twisted-Pair Copper Cable

Refer to the appendix for cable specifications for the 10BASE-T or the 100BASE-TX twisted-pair copper installation.

Installing Cable

1.Locate or build 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX-compliant cables (depending upon Multichannel Media Converter selected for the site) with male RJ-45 connectors installed at both ends.

NOTE: Use a straight-through cable to connect a hub or a switch to a twisted-pair channel port on the Multichannel Media Converter. Use a crossover cable to connect a workstation to a twisted-pair channel port on the Multichannel Media Converter.

2.Connect RJ-45 connector at one end of cable to Multichannel Media Converter RJ-45 twisted-pair channel port connector.

3.Connect RJ-45 connector at other end of cable to device RJ-45 port connector.
