1About
This document describes the usage of the 100/1000BASE-T1 Media Converter.
Product number: 1000BASET1-MC-ETH
Product page: https://www.machsystems.cz/en/products/embedded-networking/gateways-
and-bus-converters/100-1000base-t1-media-converter

2Introduction
The 100/1000BASE-T1 Media Converter realizes a full-duplex physical-layer conversion between
1000BASE-T1 and 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet), or 100BASE-T1 and 100BASE-TX (Fast Ethernet)
networks, and features TE MATEnet and RJ-45 connectors. Communication speed and master/slave
settings can be auto-negotiated with a link partner or set manually by the user. A USB port (VCP) can
be used to read device status and port diagnostic. The device can also be used as a USB-CAN(/FD)
interface simultaneously with the media conversion function.
The user can programmatically configure the device over USB or CAN(/FD) with the help of the
open communication protocol that allows to read status information, configure port parameters, and
enables to easily integrate the converter into any system. A free-of-charge PC application is available
to visualise the device’s status, configure its parameters and use the advanced functions.

5Device Description
5.1 Overview
The media converter features five connectors, seven LEDs, four DIP switches and one push
button.
Figure 3 Top view
5.2 Power
The 100/1000BASE-T1 Media Converter can be powered over USB, or externally via a 2-pin
terminal block or via the 6-pin Molex Micro-Fit connector. The external power range is 7 - 30 V DC.
All grounds are connected together.
Figure 4 Power options
Figure 5 depicts the internal power block. When the external power is connected, there is no
power drawn from USB.

5.4 Switches
There are 4 DIP switches for converter configuration. Conversion behaviour is further explained
in 6.2.
The function of DIP1-3 is predefined and cannot be changed. The function of DIP4 (user switch)
is selectable from the PC application (see 6.5) or over communication protocol. The default function is
legacy mode selection and the alternative function is a packet.
No.
