About this Manual
This manual covers the MIL- 1225LS gigabit converter. The terms “MIL-1225LS”
and “converter” are used throughout this document to describe the device.
Introduction
The MIL-1225LS is a 1000 Mbps, gigabit Ethernet device that converts short-wave,
multi-mode fiber optic signals to long-wave, single-mode fiber optic signals (and
vice versa). The device has two SC connectors:
•
SM
Port
(1300 nm single-mode fiber)
•
MM
Port
(850 nm multi-mode fiber)
The MIL-1225LS is a stand-alone device, and it has dual-redundant power
supplies for better reliability.
Packaging Contents
The MIL-1225LS package contains the following:
• MIL-1225LS multi-mode to single-mode fiber converter
• Power supply adapter (one)
• Installation guide
Features
• Compact form-factor
• Power supply adapter
• Diagnostic LEDs
Installation
1. Connect an SC-type, single-mode cable to the
SMF
Port
on the MIL-1225LS.
2. Connect an SC-type, multi-mode cable to the
MMF
Port
on the device.
Note:
A hybrid cable is recommend to compensate for the DMD (Differential Mode Delay) issue
associated with gigabit speeds and some multi-mode fibers.
3. Connect a power cable to
PWR1
. Asecond, optional power supply may be
connected to the back-up power jack (
PWR2
) to offer redundant power.
4. Supply power to the converter and make sure the
PWR1
(and
PWR2
if
applicable) LED(s) illuminates.

5. Check the
SMSD
LED and the
MMSD
LED for proper status. This depends on the
status of the devices connected to the unit. They indicate a signal is being
received on those ports.
Contact Digi’s technical support if you experience difficulties installing the MIL-
1225LS.
Theory of Operation
The MIL-1225LS is a single-mode to multi-mode fiber converter for gigabit
Ethernet networks. When the device receives an optical input signal from one
port, it will convert it into an electrical signal. The device will then convert the
electrical signal back to an optical signal suitable for transmission over the other
port.

Indicators
There are 4 LED indicators on the MIL-1225LS:
•
PWR1
(Power One): This LED illuminates when the MIL-1225LS is receiving
power on the primary power adapter.
•
PWR2
(Power Two): This LED illuminates when the MIL-1225LS is receiving
power on the (optional) back-up power adapter.
•
SMSD
(Single-Mode Signal Detect): This LED illuminates when MIL-1225LS
receives a valid link or data traffic signal from the device connected to the
SMF
Port
•
MMSD
(Multi-Mode Signal Detect): This LED illuminates when MIL-1225LS
receives a valid link or data traffic signal from the device connected to the
MMF
Port
