Chapter 6 INSTALLING THE CONVERTER

6.1 Stand-alone Installation

FT-1105A / FT-1205A is with high reliability and flexibility to extend the distance up to 2Km, 20Km, or longer. It depends on the 100Base-FX SFP transceiver modules. The SFP transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP port without having to power down the converter.

To install a FT-1105A / FT-1205A stand-alone, on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps:

Step 1: Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to which the FT-1105A / FT-1205A will be attached.

Step 2: Ensure that there is no activity in the network.

Step 3: Slot in	the	100Base-FX	SFP. Make sure both side
of the	SFP	transfer are	with the same media type,

for example: 100Base-FX/2km to 100Base-FX/2km, 100Bas-FX/20km to 100Base-FX/20km.
