Link Fault Pass-Through (DIP-Switch 2): When LFP is enabled, it allows UTP link
failures to be reported to the fiber side and also allows Fiber link failures to be reported
to the UTP side. Therefore, a link loss forwarding feature is provided in both UTP and
Fiber side.
Note Please don’t change the DIP-switch setting when UTP or fiber port is
transmitting or receiving data. It may cause some data error. Besides, if you
change the DIP-switch setting, please power off the converter and power on
again to make the setting effective.
