Installation
The default switch setting (all switches in the UP
position) will work for ost installations.
These are the steps required to configure the
S-10GR-STS edia converter.
1. Set the DIP switch settings. (optional).
2. Insert the appropriate SFP/SFP+ into the
transceiver ports.
3. Connect the fiber cables.
DIP Switches

Perle Standalone-S10-GR-STS-Installation Guide 5
DIP Switch Settings
The DIP switches are located on the side of the
unit.
Note: Switch changes ade when the unit is
powered up take effect i ediately and will result
in a link reset on both ports.
Link Mode (Switch 1)
Switch Position Mode
Up (default) Smart Link Pass-through
Down Standard
Smart Link Pass-through: In this ode, the link
state on one port connection is directly reflected
through the edia converter to the other port
connection. If link is lost on one of the connections,
then the other link will be brought down by the
edia converter.
Standard: In this ode, the links can be brought up
and down independently of each other. A loss of
link on either connection can occur without
affecting the other connection.
iber ault Alert (Switch 2)
Switch Position Mode
Up (default) Enabled
Down Disabled
Enabled: If the edia converter detects a loss of
signal on the fiber port, the edia converter
notifies the link partner on that sa e port that an
error condition exists by bringing down the link .

Perle Standalone-S10-GR-STS-Installation Guide 6
Disabled: The edia converter will not onitor for
fiber fault.

Sequence of Events
1. Media Converter A loses fiber connection (RX).
2. Media Converter A notifies the re ote Media
Converter that there is a fault on the Link.
3. Media Converter B detects loss of fiber link on
receiver (RX).
4. Media Converter B turns off trans itter (TX).

Type
Up (default) Rate converting
Down Cut-through
Rate converting: Both ports can operate at the
sa e or different speeds.
Cut-through: Both ports need to be the sa e
speed and in full duplex ode.
iber Interface Lookback (Switch 4)
Switch Position Mode
Up (default) Disabled
Down Enabled
Enabled: When enabled, the edia converter will
be in fiber loopback ode.
Disabled: When disabled, the edia converter will
not be in fiber loopback ode.

Attaching the Grounding Lug
Grounding the Chassis If your installation requires
additional grounding follow this procedure.
Grounding the chassis requires the following ite s:
One grounding lug (not provided)
One 18-12 AWG wire (not provided)
Note: For your safety, when installing this
equip ent, always ensure that the chassis ground
connection is installed first and disconnected last
1. Attach the grounding lug to one end of an 18-
12 AWG wire.
2. Attach the grounding lug to the chassis and
secure with the grounding screw(s).

Attaching the Power Cord Strain
Relief Clip
1. Feed the power cord through the opening in
the power cord relief clip.
2. Attach the power cord relief clip to the chassis
and secure with the provided screw.

Installing the SFP Fiber Module
1. Locate appropriate fiber odules and insert
into the openings.
2. Ensure the SFP/SPF+ odules are properly
seated.
3. Proceed with fiber cable connections.
Installing the Duplex Fiber Cable
1. Locate a 1000/10GBase-X co pliant duplex (2
strands) fiber cable with appropriate
connectors.
2. Connect the fiber cables fro the SFP/SFP+ to
the other Media Converter/switch/fiber device
ensuring that the RX and TX are reversed
(crossed) at the opposite end.

Perle Standalone-S10-GR-STS-Installation Guide 15
Installing the Simplex Fiber
Cable
1. Locate 1000/10GBase-X co pliant si plex (1-
strand) fiber cables with appropriate
connectors.
2. Connect the fiber cables fro the SFP/SFP+ to
the other edia converter/switch/fiber device.
Temperature Protection
Every S-10GR-STS co es equipped with an internal
fan to provide cooling to the unit. The fan will
co e on during power up and then turn off. It will
only co e on when the te perature inside the
case beco es elevated. If the odule is operating
above its specified axi u operating
te perature, the S-10GR-STS will reduce the
power to the odule. The S-10GRT will continue to
onitor the operating te perature of the unit
until the te perature is below the axi u
operating te perature and then the S-10GT-STS
will return the odule to nor al operating.
Loopback Mode
The edia converter can be put into Loopback
ode for diagnosis purposes. A packet generator
and analyzer ust be used to generate and capture
the packets in this ode.
