PRODUCT INFORMATION B&B ELECTRONICS
Link-fault-pass-through
Link-Fault-Pass-Through Overview:
When two Media Converters are connected via their fiber
ports
Link Fault of the FX port:
A Link Fault condition will be sensed on the RJ45 port
whenever the media converter detects a Link Fault condition
on the Fiber port. (The 100, LNK/ACT, and FDX/COL LED’s
will be off.)
Link Fault of the TX port:
Media Converter A: A Link Fault condition will be sensed on
the Fiber port whenever the media converter detects a Link
Fault condition on the RJ45 port. Thus, the 100, LNK/ACT,
and FDX/COL LEDs of the RJ45 port of the Media Converter
A would be off.
Media Converter B: A Link Fault condition will be informed to
the Fiber port of the Media Converter B. Then a Link Fault
condition will be sensed on the RJ45 port of the Media
Converter B whenever the Media Converter B detects a Link
Fault condition on the Fiber port. Thus, the 100, LNK/ACT,
and FDX/COL LEDs of the Media Converter B would be off.

Installation
Connecting Power:
The media converter is a plug-and-play device, so simply plug the
power supply into the converter and then the AC outlet.
Installing the Media Converter into the Chassis:
The media converter fits into any of the chassis expansion slots.
yFirst, remove one of the expansion slot carriers
yThen, install the converter onto the carrier
yNext, insert the carrier onto the guide rails of the expansion slot
yCarefully slide the carrier unit in, until it firmly fits the chassis
yReinstall the screw that locks the carrier to the chassis
Installing the Power Supply into the Chassis:
The power supply fits into either of the two power supply bays on
the back of the rack chassis.
yFirst, remove the cover plate
yThen, insert the power supply into the guide rails of the bay
yCarefully slide the power supply in until it firmly fits in the chassis
yTighten the thumb screws provided on the power supply
