Preface

This hardened media converter provides an affordable solution for rugged

and outdoor environments, transportation roadside cabinets, industrial

floor operations, multi-tenant dwellings, or Fiber To The Home (FTTH)

applications.

It is the media converter of choice for harsh envir

onments

with space constraints. It is capable of operating at temperature extremes

of -40°

F to 165° F (-40° C to +74° C).

Plug-and-Play Solution:

The Signamax 065-1800 series hardened media converter is a plug-and-

play media converter with a compact case size. There is no complicated

software set up required.

This manual describes how to install and use the Signamax 065-1800 series

hardened media converters with the Link Fault Signaling (LFS) function.

The converters introduced here provide one channel of media conversion

between 10/100BaseT/TX and 100BaseFX connections.

These converters fully comply with IEEE802.3 10BaseT and IEEE802.3u

100BaseTX/FX standards.

065-1800 series Hardened Media Converter One-Channel Media Converter Ports The Signamax 065-1800 series Hardened Media Converter provides one TX port and one FX port. For the FX port, it provides options of: Multimode fiber using SC, ST, VF-45, MT-RJ or LC connector, or Singlemode fiber using SC or ST connector, or WDM fiber using single SC connector For the TX port, it uses an RJ-45 connector, auto-MDIX, and autonegotiates 10/100 Mbps speed and full-duplex or half-duplex modes.

065-1800 series Hardened Media Converter Link Fault Signaling (LFS) Connect the FX ports of two Media Converters, A and B, through the fiber optic cable. Link Fault of the FX port: A Link Fault condition will be sensed on the TX port whenever the media converter detects a Link Fault condition on the FX port. Thus, the 100, LNK/ACT, and FDX/COL LEDs of the media converter would be off.

065-1800 series Hardened Media Converter Installation This chapter gives step-by-step installation instructions for the Converter. Selecting a Site for the Equipment As with any electric device, you should place the equipment where it will not be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or electromagnetic interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following requirements: The ambient temperature should be between -40° to 165° Fahrenheit (-40° to +74° Celsius).
