Located only on 100BASE-TX MFETF10xx series Multichannel Media Converter models, the Rest button, if present, allows the network administrator to reset ALL Multichannel Media Converter channel ports.

1.5AC Power Supply Module/Optional Redundant AC Power Supply Module

An AC Power Supply Module, installed at the back of the Multichannel

Media Converter before shipment, supplies power to the Multichannel

Media Converter through an external power cord connected to an external

AC outlet.

NOTE: The Multichannel Media Converter does not have an ON/OFF power switch. Power is applied to, and removed from, the Multichannel Media Converter by connecting and disconnecting the power cord.

The Multichannel Media Converter rear panel also contains an expansion slot for an optional redundant Power Supply Module. When installed, the optional redundant Power Supply Module shares the power load with the main AC Power Supply Module. If one power supply fails, the remaining power supply assumes the role of providing all power to the Multichannel Media Converter, thereby protecting the Multichannel Media Converter from a system failure.

NOTE: Both the redundant Power Supply Module and the main AC Power

Supply Module can be "hot swapped".
