Product Description
The MC352-1P/1S extends communication distance with high
Gigabit performance via fiber optical wire, in which the
extension distance can be up to 70km. The MC352-1P/1S is
specifically designed with durable components and an IP-30
rated enclosure to operate reliably in electrically and
demanding environments. The industrial Gigabit media
converter provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic
interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually
found on plant floors or traffic control cabinets along highways.
Being able to operate under the temperature range from -40 to
75 Degree C allows the MC352-1P/1S to be used in almost
any demanding environment.
The maximum distance between the PoE PSE to PD is 100
meters. To extend the network device deployment range, the
MC352-1P/1S is designed with a fiber interface. The MC352-
1P/1S is used to convert an optical Ethernet signal to an
electrical Ethernet signal that allows two type segments to
connect easily, efficiently and inexpensively. It can convert
10/100/1000Base-T signal to 1000Base-SX / LX and provides
the diverse options of fiber connecting types to meet different
network applications.
With the long Fiber distance support, it still sustains the
transmission performance as high as 1000Mbps. It works in a
high performance Store and Forward mechanism, and also
can prevent packet loss with IEEE 802.3x Flow Control (Full-
Duplex) and the LFP (Link Fault Pass Through function)
(LLCF/LLR) with a DIP Switch setting. Furthermore, it can
immediately notify the network administrator the issue with an
alarm from the link media which provides an efficient solution
to monitor the network power usage.
To fill the growing demand of Industrial PoE PD devices that
need higher Power Input and long distance transmission, the

IFS MC352-1P/1S User Manual 3
MC352-1P/1S Industrial Media converter that complies with
IEEE 802.3at High Power over Ethernet technology. The
MC352-1P/1S provides the following key features:
• IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet standard compliance
• IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet standard compliance
• Maximum 30 Watts power output
• 10/100/1000Mbps duplex mode support on the1000Base-T
port
• 1000Mbps support on the fiber optic port
The MC352-1P/1S is a Single-Port, End-Span Industrial IEEE
802.3at High Power over Ethernet Gigabit Media converter
with maximum power output of up to 30 Watts over Ethernet
cables. It is designed specifically to meet the power
requirements of network equipment such as PTZ (Pan, Tilt &
Zoom) network cameras, PTZ Speed Dome cameras, color
touch-screen / Video and Voice over IP (VoIP) telephones,
multi- channel (11a / b / g / n) wireless LAN access points and
other Network devices that need higher power to function
normally. The MC352-1P/1S Industrial High Power over
Ethernet Gigabit Media converter is an ideal solution to deliver
data and power to network devices directly via the RJ-45 Port
interface without the need of installing extra power outlets and
electrical cabling.

Please follow the steps below to insert the power wires.
1. Insert positive / negative DC power wires into the contacts
1 and 2 for POWER 1, or 5 and 6 for POWER 2.
V1-V1+ V2- V2+
2. Tighten the wire-clamp screws to prevent the wires from
disconnecting.

Wiring the Fault Alarm Contact
The fault alarm contacts are in the middle of the terminal block
connector as the picture shows below. Inserting the wires, the
MC352-1P/1S will detect the fault status of the power failure
and then forms an open circuit. The following illustration shows
an application example for wiring the fault alarm contacts.

Note: The wire gauge for the terminal block should be in the
range between 12 ~ 24 AWG.
The alarm relay circuit accepts up to 30V, max. 3A currents.
Mounting Installation
This section describes how to mount the MC352-1P/1S and
make connections to it. Please read the following sections and
perform the procedures in the order presented.
Note: In the installation steps below, this Manual uses the IFS

Industrial Switch & Industrial Media Converter are similar.
Mounting to a DIN-Rail
The DIN-Rail kit comes assembled on the MC352-1P/1S out of
the box. Please refer to following figures to mount the MC352-
1P/1S on a DIN-Rail.

Link Fault Pass through (LFP)
The LFP refers to the Link Fault Pass Through function
(LLCF/LLR) and the DIP Switch settings. LLCF/LLR can
immediately notify administrators about a problem with the link
media. The DIP Switch enables or disables the LFP function.
LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) detects the connection loss
on the TP line, and LLR (Link Loss Return) detects the
connection loss on the fiber line.
Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF)
MC352-1P/1S incorporates an LLCF function for
troubleshooting a remote connection. When the LFP function
is enabled, the FL/TP ports do not transmit a link signal until
they receive a link signal from the opposite port.
The diagram below shows a typical network configuration with
a good link status using MC352-1P/1S for remote connectivity.
In case of a connectivity issue, the MC352-1P/1S media
converter LLCF sends the notification to the switch/hub that
generates a trap to the management station.

IFS MC352-1P/1S User Manual 13
* The factory default setting for the LFP function is "off".
Link Loss Return (LLR)
The fiber ports of the MC352-1P/1S have been designed with
an LLR function for troubleshooting a remote connection. LLR
works in conjunction with LLCF.
When the LFP function is enabled, the port’s transmitter shuts
down when its receiver fails to detect a valid connection. LLR
should only be enabled on one end of the link and is typically
enabled on either the unmanaged or remote device.
The diagram below shows a typical network configuration with
a good link status using MC352-1P/1S for remote connectivity.
Note that LLR and LLCF are enabled as indicated in the
diagram.
If one of the optical conductors is bad (as shown in the
diagram box below), the converter with LLR function will return

14 IFS MC352-1P/1S User Manual
a no-link condition to its link partner. With LLCF function also
enabled, the no-link condition is carried forward to the
switch/hub where a trap is generated to the management
station.
Note: The factory default setting for the LFP function is "off".
This feature can also be turned on via the side DIP-switch. If
the installer is familiar with the network installation and
diagnostics (i.e. checking which end is broken in a
connection), you can turn the switch to the on position and
reset the converter for changes to take effect. Otherwise, it's
recommended to keep the DIP switch in its default position.

IFS MC352-1P/1S User Manual 15
Stand-alone Installation
Please follow these steps to install the MC352-1P/1S:
The SFP transceivers are hot-swappable, you can insert or
remove the transceiver from an SFP port without having to
power down the Industrial 802.3at PoE Media Converter.
To install the MC352-1P/1S with 100Base-FX, 1000Base-SX /
LX SFP, simply complete the following steps:
Step 1: Insert in the 100Base-FX, or 1000Base-SX / LX SFP.
Make sure the same type of SFP modules are used on both
side, i.e. 100Base-FX / 2km to 100Base-FX / 2km, 1000Base-
SX / 220m & 550m to 1000Base-SX / 220m & 550m, etc.
Step 2: Connect the fiber cable. Attach the duplex LC
connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
Note: It is recommended to use 1000Base-SX / LX SFP
modules available in the IFS Transmission product line. A SFP
transceiver module that is not supported will not be recognized
by MC352-1P/1S media converter.
The following list provides the available SFP modules for the
MC352-1P/1S.

802.3at/802.3af Installation
Before your installation, it is recommended to check your
network environment.
The MC352-1P/1S requires 48VDC or 24VDC input and it
injects the DC power into the pin of the twisted pair cable (Pin
1, 2, 3 and 6).
