3 System overview
The VG4-SFPSCKT is a media converter module that provides an integrated fiber optic
solution. The module is designed to accept any of the 10/100 Mbps Small Form-factor
Pluggable (SFP) modules listed below, for use with Multimode optical fiber (MMF) or Single
mode (SMF) optical fiber with LC or SC connectors.
The media converter module, along with the SFP module, is user-installed into:
– Any of the following AUTODOME power supply units:
– VG4-A-PA1
– VG4-A-PA2
– VG4-A-PSU1
– VG4-A-PSU2
– Any of the following MIC IP power supply units (for use with a MIC550, a MIC550IR, or a
MIC612 analog camera):
– MIC-IP-PS-115
– MIC-IP-PS-24
– MIC-IPIR-PS-115
– MIC-IPIR-PS-230
– MIC-IPIR-PS-24
– An EXTEGRA IP 9000 FX camera
The Fiber Optic module accepts the following SFP modules:
Sub-module Fiber Type Optical Interface
SFP-2 MMF Duplex LC
SFP-3 SMF Duplex LC
SFP-25 MMF Single SC
SFP-26 MMF Single SC
Notice!
The SFP module is not included with the VG4-SFPSCKT kit; it must be purchased separately.
The SFP-25/SFP-26 modules are counterparts; if you use one in the VG4-SFPSCKT module
then you must use the other in the CNFE2MC head-end unit. For example, SFP-25 is used in
the VG4-SFPSCKT module installed into a VG4 power supply. You must use the SFP-26 module
in the CNFE2MC head-end unit.
The following chart lists the compatibility between the SFP modules:

7 Troubleshooting
Issue Symptom Resolution
No data present No Power Check power to VG4-SFPSCKT:
– If Green LED is present, then
Check power to CNFE2MC:
– If Power LED is Green, then check data link
Invalid Fiber Link Check fiber connection to VG4-SFPSCKT:
– If Red LED is present, then the fiber link is missing. If
the LED is Flashing Red, then
Check the fiber connection to the CNFE2MC:
– If the Link/Act LED is not lit, then the fiber link is
missing.
No Video present RJ-45
Connection
Check the PWR/Link on the VG4-SFPSCKT:
– If the LED is slowly Flashing Red, then
Check all video connections from the VG4 AutoDome.
– If the LED is rapidly Flashing Red, then
Check the RJ-45 connector on the VG4-SFPSCKT:
– If the right LED (Green) is not lit, then no data is
present at this RJ-45 connection.
– If no LED lit on the RJ-45 connector, then there is a
fault with this connector, the RJ-45 cable, or the cable
is not connected to the CNFE2MC.
Check the RJ-45 connector on the CNFE2MC:
– If the right LED (Green) is not lit, then no data is
present at this RJ-45 connection.
– If no LED lit on the RJ-45 connector, then there is a
fault with this connector, the RJ-45 cable, or the cable
