2.2 Cabling
100BASE-TX and 100BASE-FX
The 10/100Mbps RJ45 ports come with auto-negotiation capability. Users only need to plug in working
network device into one of the 10/100Mbps RJ45 ports. The FRT-415N will automatically run in 10Mbps or
100Mbps after the negotiation with the connected device. The FRT-415N has one 100BASE-FX SFP
interface (optional multi-mode/single-mode 100BASE-FX SFP module).
Cabling
Each 10/100BASE-TX port uses RJ45 sockets for connection to unshielded twisted-pair cable (UTP).
Port Type Cable Type Connector
10BASE-T Cat 3, 4, 5, 2-pair RJ45
100BASE-TX Cat 5, 5e, 6 UTP, 2-pair RJ45
Any Ethernet devices like hubs or PCs can connect to the fiber router by using straight-through wires. The
10/100Mbps RJ45 ports which support auto MDI/MDI-X can be used on straight-through or crossover cable.
2.2.1 Installing the SFP Transceiver
This section describes how to insert an SFP transceiver into an SFP slot. The SFP transceiver is hot-pluggable
and hot-swappable. You can plug in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP port without having to power

Before connecting the other switches, workstation or media converter,
1. Make sure both sides of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type or WDM pair; for example,
100BASE-FX to 100BASE-FX and 100BASE-BX20-U to 100BASE-BX20-D.
2. Check whether the fiber-optic cable type matches the SFP transceiver model.
To connect to MFB-FX SFP transceiver, use the multi-mode fiber cable, with one side being the
male duplex LC connector type.
To connect to MFB-F20/F40/F60/FA20/FB20 SFP transceiver, use the single-mode fiber cable, with
one side being the male duplex LC connector type.
Connecting the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable to the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a
workstation or a media converter.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot of the switch/converter. Ensure that the SFP transceiver is
operating correctly.
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP port if the link fails. It functions with some fiber-NICs or media
converters; setting the Link mode to “100 Force” is needed.
2.2.2 Removing the Module
1. Please make sure there is no network activity by console or check with the network administrator. You
can access the management interface of the fiber router to disable the port in advance.
2. Remove the Fiber Optic Cable gently.
3. Turn the handle of the MFB module/mini GBIC SFP module to horizontal.
4. Pull out the module gently through the handle.
Never pull out the module without pulling the lever or the push bolts on the
