DESCRIPTION:

The miniature miConverter™ 10/100 is a rate-switching UTP copper to 100BASE-FX fiber media converter that provides cost-effective fiber extension and connectivity. The miConverter 10/100’s UTP copper port can automatically detect the speed, duplex-mode and cross-over mode of the connected device.

The 100BASE-FX fiber port operates in Full-Duplex mode and supports single-mode or multimode fiber with ST or SC fiber connectors. Single-fiber models feature Bi-Directional fiber and support distances of up to 40km. The various fiber model options are described in the table on the first page.

WARNING!

Before inserting the Power Adapter, verify that the power on the unit is appropriate

for your AC line voltage source.

POWER ADAPTER NOTICE:

This product should only be used with Omnitron Supplied Power Unit model numbers 9113-PS, 9115-PS, 9130-2, 9116-PS-3, 9116-PS-4, 9116-PS-5 or 9116-PS-8.

In order to guarantee performance when powering the miConverter 10/100 with the USB Power Adapter cable (P/N 9130-2), the USB adapter cable must be connected to a Full-Powered USB Type-A port (5V, 500mA).

Note: Not all USB Type-A ports are Full-Powered USB ports. The Full-Powered USB Type-A ports are usually the USB ports found on computer cases or on self-powered (powered by an AC adapter) USB hubs.

MOUNTING AND CABLE ATTACHMENT:

The miConverter 10/100 can be quick-mounted using the included Velcro® strips, or permanentaly mounted using the optional wall-mounting kit (P/N 4381).

Attach the UTP port of the miConverter 10/100 to a 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX Ethernet device, via a category 5 cable.

Attach the fiber port of the miConverter 10/100 to a 100BASE-FX Fast Ethernet device, via the fiber cable of the appropriate mode and type.

When connecting the dual-fiber models, the miConverter

transmiter (Tx) must attach to the receiver side of its link partner; the receiver (Rx) must attach to the transmiter.

When using single-fiber (SF) media converter models, the Tx wavelength on one end has to match the Rx wavelength on the other. Based on this guideline, the SF media converter models must be used in pairs, such as the 1110-1-x matched with the 1111-1-x.
