Overview
The IMC-P101 series is an Ethernet to fiber optic media converter. It provides
Ethernet media conversion from 10/100 BaseT(X) to 100 BaseFX(SC/ST
connectors). These media converters are classified as power source equipment
(PSE), and when used in this way, the IMC-P101 series provides up to 15.4
watts to powered devices (PD). The IMC-P101 series can be used to power
IEEE 802.3af compliant powered devices (PD), eliminating the need for
additional wiring, and supports IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802.3x with 10/100M,
full/half-duplex, and MDI/MDI-X auto-sensing to provide a total solution for
your industrial Ethernet network.

DIN-Rail Mounting
The aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate should be fixed to the back panel of
the IMC when you take it out of the box. If you need to reattach the DIN-Rail
attachment plate to the IMC, make sure the stiff metal spring is situated
towards the top, as shown in the figures below.
STEP 1:
Insert the top of the DIN-Rail into the
slot just below the stiff metal spring.
STEP 2:
The DIN-Rail attachment unit will
snap into place as shown below.

To remove the Moxa Industrial Media Converter from the DIN-Rail, simply
reverse Steps 1 and 2 above.
Wall Mounting (Optional)
For some applications, you will find it convenient to mount the Moxa PoE
Media Converter on the wall, as illustrated below.
STEP 1:
Remove the aluminum DIN-Rail attachment plate from the Moxa PoE Media
Converter, and then attach the wall mount plates, as shown in the diagrams
below.

STEP 2:
Mounting the Moxa PoE Media Converter on the wall
requires 4 screws. Use the IMC, with wall mount plates
attached, as a guide to mark the correct locations of the 4
screws. The heads of the screws should be less than 6.0
mm in diameter, and the shafts should be less than 3.5
mm in diameter, as shown in the figure at the right.
NOTE Test the screw head and shank size by inserting
the screw into one of the keyhole shaped
apertures of the Wall Mounting Plates, before it
is screwed into the wall.
Do not screw the screws in all the way—leave a space of
about 2 mm to allow room for sliding the wall mount
panel between the wall and the screws.
6.0 mm
3.5 mm
STEP 3:
Once the screws are fixed in the wall, insert the four screw heads through the
large openings of the keyhole-shaped apertures, and then slide Moxa PoE
Media Converter downwards, as indicated below. Tighten the four screws for
added stability.
Grounding the Moxa Industrial Media
Converter
Grounding and wire routing help limit the effects of noise due to
electromagnetic interference (EMI). Run the ground connection from the
ground screw to the grounding surface prior to connecting devices.
ATTENTION
This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded
mounting surface such as a metal panel.

Wiring the Redundant Power Inputs
The top five contacts of the 8-contact terminal block connector on the IMC’s
top panel are used for the IMC’s two DC inputs. Top and front views of one of
the terminal block connectors are shown here.
Top View
Front View
STEP 1: Insert the negative/positive DC wires
into the V-/V+ terminals.
STEP 2: To keep the DC wires from pulling
loose, use a small flat-blade screwdriver to
tighten the wire-clamp screws on the front of the
terminal block connector.
STEP 3: Insert the plastic terminal block
connector prongs into the terminal block receptor,
which is located on the IMC’s top panel.
ATTENTION
Before connecting the IMC to DC power inputs, make sure
the DC power source voltage is stable.
Communication Connections
IMC-P101 models have one 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet port, and one
100BaseFX (SC or ST type connector) fiber port.
10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet Port Connection
The 10/100BaseT(X) Ethernet port located on the IMC’s front panel is used to
connect to Ethernet-enabled devices.
Illustrated below are pinouts for both MDI (NIC-type) ports and MDI-X
(HUB/Switch-type) ports, and also cable wiring diagrams for straight-through
and cross-over Ethernet cables.

100BaseFX Ethernet Port Connection
The concept behind the SC port and cable is quite straightforward. Suppose
you are connecting devices I and II. Unlike electrical signals, optical signals do
not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Consequently, one of the optical
lines is used to transmit data from device I to device II, and the other optical
line is used transmit data from device II to device I, for full-duplex
transmission.
All you need to remember is to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I to the
Rx (receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx
(transmit) port of device II. If you are making your own cable, we suggest
labeling the two sides of the same line with the same letter (A-to-A and B-to-B,
as shown below, or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

Redundant Power Inputs
Both power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC power sources.
If one power source fails, the other live source acts as a backup, and
automatically supplies all of the Moxa Industrial Media Converter’s power
needs.
