Smart Link Pass-Through:In this mode, the fiber link state on one fiber connection is directly reflected through the Media Converter module to the other fiber connection. Since this media converter module is protocol independent, it monitors the Signal Detect indicator from the SFP and reflects this on the TX port of the other SFP by turning off the transmitter. When the signal (Link) gets restored and Signal Detect becomes active the affected transmitter will get re-enabled.
Standard Mode: In Standard Mode the media converter module will monitor the fiber link in the same manner. If Signal Detect goes down the media converter module will output a 25MHz signal on the TX port of the other SFP.
