INSTALLATION

Set Switches

Use small flatblade screwdriver or similar device to set recessed switches according to site installation.

•Set EACH MDI/MDI-X switch to MDI for cable connection between switch and media converter OR to MDI-X for cable connection between media converter and terminal, transceiver or network interface card (NIC).

•Referring to drawing on page 2, set four-position switch according to network configuration.

NOTE: If connecting two (2) media converters in series, set the PST (#4) switch on one media converter to the UP position AND set the PST (#4) switch on the other media converter to the DOWN position.

Install Slide-In-Module in E-MCC-1600 Chassis

•Remove Media Converter Slide-in-Module protective plate from selected installation slot by removing two (2) screw that secures plate to front of E-MCC-1600.

•Carefully slide Media Converter Slide-in-Module into installation slot, aligning Media Converter Slide-in-Module with installation guides. NOTE: Ensure that the Media Converter Slide-in-Module is firmly seated against backplane.

•Secure Slide-in-Module by installing panel fastener screw attached to Slide-in-Module.

Install Cable

COPPER

NOTE: KEEP TWISTED PAIR RUNS AS SHORT AS POSSIBLE.

• Locate or build 802.3 compliant cables with straight through
	configuration and male RJ-45 plug connectors.
•	Connect male RJ-45 plug connector at one end of cable to media
	converter RJ-45 jack connector.
•	Connect male RJ-45 plug connector at other end of cable to DTE

switch RJ-45 jack connector (with MDI switch set to MDI).

FIBER

•Locate or build 802.3 compliant fiber cable with male two-stranded TX to RX connectors appropriate to the media converter installed at both ends.

•Connect male TX and RX cable connectors at one end of cable to TX and RX female connectors, respectively, on media converter.

•Connect male TX and RX cable connectors at other end of cable to RX and TX connectors of 802.3 compliant fiber device.
