Installing Media Converter Modules

Caution: Observe electrostatic discharge precautions when installing the Media Converter Module(s) into the Chassis. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the Module(s) and/or chassis.

The Perle Media Converter Modules can be installed in any available slot and in any order within the chassis.

1.Remove the Module from its packaging.

2.Using a cross-head screwdriver, remove the screw holding the face plate to the Chassis to reveal the slot opening.

3.Set the jumpers and DIP switches on the Media Converter Module to the desired operating mode.(optional)

4.Locate the top and bottom alignment guides inside the MCR Chassis.

5.Using the module alignment guides gently slide the module into the slot until it becomes flush with the front of the Chassis. Light pressure may be needed to seat the module. Do not force the module as you might cause damage. If there is resistance, remove the module and check the module connector for damaged or incorrectly aligned pins. If these are not damaged, retry module insertion.

6.Tighten the captive retainer screw to ensure the Media Converter Module is locked in place.

7.Remove the dust cap from the fiber connector and connect the fiber and copper cables.
