Preface
I FCC Warning
This Equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class-A digital device, pursuant to Part
15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a
residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy. It may cause
harmful interference to radio communications if the equipment is not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equip-
ment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the
equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following mea-
sures:
•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
II CE Mark Warning
This is a Class-A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause radio interference in which case the
user may be required to take adequate measures.

1. Overview
1.1 Introduction
The AT-IMC1000T/SFP Gigabit Ethernet Industrial Media Converter is designed to convert Gigabit copper Ethernet
networks to Gigabit fiber networks by transparently converting Ethernet signals to optic signals. The advantages of
fiber optics are wide bandwidth, EMI immunity and long-distance transmission capability. The AT-IMC1000T/SFP is
an ideal solution for “fiber to building” applications at central offices or local sites. On the copper port, it supports
MDI/MDIX auto detection, so you don’t need to use crossover wires. Furthermore, the AT-IMC1000T/SFP can work
normally in an extended temperature range from -40°C to 75°C and accepts a wide voltage range from +12 ~ 48
VDC. It also provides 3,000 VDC surge (EFT) protection against over-voltage, so it is suitable for harsh operating
environments.
1.1.1 Gigabit Fiber Converter
This switch converter has one SFP slot which provides the flexibility when planning and implementing a network.
The slot can accept most 1000M SFP-type fiber modules that are designed for transmitting over many Kilometers.
This means you can easily change the transmission mode and distance of the switch by simply pulling out the SFP
module and plugging in a different module. The SFP module is hot-swappable and plug-and-play.
1.1.2 Dual Power Input
To reduce the risk of power failure, the Industrial Media Converter provides +12 ~ 48 VDC dual power inputs. If
there is power failure, the unit will switch automatically to the secondary power input.
1.1.3 Flexible Mounting
The Industrial Media Converter is compact and can be mounted on a DIN-Rail or a wall, so it is suitable for any
space-constrained environment.
1.1.4 Advanced Protection
The power line of the switch converter supports up to 3,000 VDC EFT protection, which secure equipment against
unregulated voltage and makes the unit safer and more reliable. Meanwhile, 6,000 VDC ESD protections for Ether-
net ports make the Industrial Media Converter more suitable for harsh environments.
1.1.5 Wide Operating Temperature
The operating temperature of the the switch converter is between -40°C to 75°C. With such a wide range, you can
use the Industrial Media Converter in some of the harshest industrial environments that exist.
1.1.6 Environments
This equipment is for use in pollution degree 2 environments.

1.1.7 Easy Troubleshooting
LED indicators make troubleshooting quick and easy. The 10/100/1000 Base-TX port (P1) has 2 LEDs that display
the link status, network activity and the port speed. Also the three power indicators P1, P2 and Fault can help you
diagnose power issues immediately.
