CAUTION: Copper based media ports, e.g., Twisted Pair (TP) Ethernet, USB, RS232, RS422, RS485, DS1, DS3, Video Coax, etc., are intended to be connected to intra- building (inside plant) link segments that are not subject to lightening transients or power faults. Copper-based media ports, e.g., Twisted Pair (TP) Ethernet, USB, RS232, RS422, RS485, DS1, DS3, Video Coax, etc., are NOT to be connected to inter- building (outside plant) link segments that are subject to lightening transients or power faults. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to equipment.

Troubleshooting

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 power LED illuminated and did the TX and FX LEDs turn ON then turn OFF?

NO

Is the power adapter the proper type of voltage and cycle frequency for the AC outlet?

Is the power adapter properly installed in the media converter and in the outlet?

Contact Technical Support: US/Canada: 1-800-260-1312, International: 00-1-952-941-7600.

YES

Proceed to step 2.

Note the following:

As a link pass-through device both copper and fiber cables must be installed before the LEDs will light.

2.Are the “TX and FX-Link/ACT” LEDs illuminated on the RJ-45 port ?

NO

Check the copper cables for proper connection.

Check the fiber cables for proper connection.
