Transition Networks CBFTF10XX-15X Operation, Install the Twisted-Pair Copper Cable, Status LEDs

CBFTF10xx-15x

INSTALLATION -- Continued

Install the Twisted-Pair Copper Cable

1.Locate or build IEEE 803.2™ compliant 10Base-T or 100Base-TX cables, with straight-through RJ-45 cable, and with straight-through RJ-45 connectors installed at both ends.

2.Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port connector on the Media Converter.

3.Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45 port connector on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).

INSTALLATION -- Continued

Power the Media Converter

The CBFTF10xx-15x Slide-in-Module Media Converter is powered through the Point System™ chassis.

Install the Fiber Cable

1.Locate or build IEEE 803.2™ compliant 100Base-FX fiber cable with male, two-stranded TX to RX connectors installed at both ends.

2.Connect the fiber cables to the CBFTF10xx-15x Media Converter as described:

•Connect the male TX cable connector the female TX connector.

•Connect the male RX cable connector to the female RX connector.

3.Connect the fiber cables to the other device (another Media Converter, hub, etc.) as described:

•Connect the male TX cable connector the female RX connector.

•Connect the male RX cable connector to the female TX connector.

Use the status LEDs to monitor the Media Converter and the network connections.

FDPX (Fiber Duplex)

ON = full-duplex fiber connection.

Blinking = half-duplex fiber connection.

FLNK (Fiber Link)

ON = fiber link connection.

Blinking = fiber network activity.

PWR (Power)

ON = connection to external AC power.

TSPD (Twisted-Pair Speed)

ON = 100 Mb/s.

Blinking = 10 Mb/s.

TDPX (Twisted-Pair Duplex)

ON = full-duplex copper connection.

LED off = half-duplex copper connection.

TLKN(Twisted-Pair Link)

ON = copper link connection.

Blinking = copper network activity.
