OptEnet Media Converter with SFP modules support Medium Dependent Interface Crossover (MDI-X). OptEnet Media Converter Module Ethernet ports allow connections to other hubs or switches without a null-modem or crossover cable. If a null-modem or crossover cable has been used the OptEnet Media Converter with SFP module automatically detects this and switches the contacts to match the other end.

Any blinking of a link LED indicates auto-negotiation in process. If a link LED continues to blink for more than 30 seconds then the operation of the far end device (i.e., duplex and speed) needs to be verified or changed.

5.110/100 Mb/s Module

If the PC workstation port has been set to auto-select (i.e., full auto-negotiation) for speed and duplex, the TPLink LED will be OFF when power is applied unless a valid optical link has already been established with a remote optical port. If a valid optical link has been established, FOLink LED will be YELLOW for 10 Mb/s operation or GREEN for 100 Mb/s operation. The preferred mode of operation for the port is auto select for both speed and duplex. This will insure that a link can be established regardless of the far end operational mode.

OptEnet 10/100BaseLX Media Converters support auto-negotiation as defined in TIA/EIA-785. Auto-negotiation allows the unit to automatically select the highest performance level for COPPER or FIBER.

5.21000 Mb/s Module

Set data rate speed to 1000 Mb/s and enable half/full duplex auto-negotiate on any equipment connected to the OptEnet 1000 Mb/s Media Converter module.

If the Network Interface Card (NIC) or port in the PC workstation has been set to 1000 Mb/s for speed and half/full duplex auto-negotiate, the link LED will be OFF when power is applied. Once valid optical and electrical links have been established, link LEDs turn GREEN.

6 OPERATION

The Module may be controlled through a Command Line Interface. Refer to the OptEnet Media Converter Communications User Manual listed in Related Publications, for operational procedures that pertain to the CPU module.

7 MAINTENANCE

Follow standard cleaning practices for maintenance of fiber adapters and connectors.
