Installation

The default switch settings (all switches in the UP position) will work for most installations. See the Operation section of this guide for more details.

The module comes equipped with a bank of DIP switches and a set of jumpers for setting configuration.

The following steps are used to configure the Media Converter module.

1.Set the Auto-Config jumper. (CM models only) (optional).

2.Set the DIP switch settings (optional).

3.Insert SFP modules into the transceiver ports.

4.Insert the module into the chassis.

Auto-Config Jumper (CM only)

The Auto-Config jumper is J5. Refer to the diagram below for labelling.

Auto (Pin 2 and Pin 3 are strapped): When set to Auto the module will, at power-up, check its internal flash memory to see if configuration information has been downloaded to it from a management module. If so, it will use this as its running configuration. If there is no configuration in flash it will read the settings of the DIP switches and use those as its running configuration.

SW: (Pin 1 and Pin 2 are strapped): When set to SW (Switch), the module will, at power-up, read the settings of the DIP Switches and use those as it running configuration. It will ignore any configuration information in its flash memory.

Note: The default jumper setting is Auto
