1. Overview
Thank you for purchasing PLANET FTP-80X family 10/100Mbps
Ethernet Twisted pair to 100Base-FX Fiber-optic PoE Bridge
Converter. This converter is used to convert one type media
signal to other type equivalent that allows two type segments
connect easily, efciently and inexpensively. The converter
provides Power over Ethernet power injector function which is
able to drive one IEEE 802.3af compliant powered devices.
About the Power over Ethernet Injector
The FTP-80X is an IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet Injector
that provide DC 48V over Ethernet cables. The FTP-80X IEEE
802.3af Power over Ethernet Injector inserts DC Voltage into
Cat.5 cable, allowing the cable between the Injector (FTP-
80X) and PoE PD (Powered Device) to transfer data and power
simultaneously. The maximum distance between the Injector
(FTP-80x) and PoE PD is 100 meters. With FTP-80x installed,
it is combines the Ethernet digital data with power over the
twisted pair cables as an IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet
Injector. And the IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet splitter shall
separate the digital data and the power into two outputs.
With IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet devices installed, the
system administrator only have to use a single RJ-45 Ethernet
cable to carries both power and data to each devices. Besides,
to connect through FTP-80x and PoE PD, you could also have
following benet that, cost saving, easy for networking planning
and higher reliability. What’s more, upon any IEEE 802.3af
devices installed, the FTP-80X or PD all can make the connection
while migrating and the Ethernet digital packets, such as
connecting the FTP-80X to an IEEE 802.3af complied devices,
AP or IP Camera.

5. Link Fault Pass through (LFP)
The LFP function includes the Link Fault Pass Through
function (LLCF/LLR) and the DIP Switch design. LLCF/LLR can
immediately alarm administrators the problem of the link media
and provide efcient solution to monitor the net. The DIP Switch
provides disable or enable the LFP function.
LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) means when a device connected
to the converter and the TP line loss the link, the converter’s
ber will disconnect the link of transmit. LLR (Link Loss Return)
means when a device connected to the converter and the ber
line loss the link, the converter’s ber will disconnect the link
of transmit. Both can immediately alarm administrators the
problem of the link media and provide efcient solution to
monitor the net.
Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF)
FTP-80X incorporates an LLCF function for troubleshooting a
remote connection. When 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 conguration with a
good link status using FTP-80X for remote connectivity.

Link Loss Return (LLR)
The ber ports of FTP-80X have been designed with an LLR
function for troubleshooting a remote connection. LLR works in
conjunction with LLCF.
When LFP function is enabled, the port’s transmitter shuts down
when its receiver fails to detect a valid receive link. 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 conguration with
a good link status using FTP-80X 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 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, and the
administrator can then determine the source of the loss.

tion and for diagnostic purpose (i.e. check which
end is broken), you can turn it on and reset the
converter to make it take effect. Otherwise, please
remain it in the default position.

6. Installing the Converter
Please follow these steps to install the PoE Media converter:
Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to which
the FTP-80X will be attached.
Ensure that there is no activity in the network.
Attach ber cable from the FTP-80X to the ber network. TX,
RX must be paired at both ends.
Attach a Cat. 5 UTP cable from the 10/100Base-TX network to
the RJ-45 port on the FTP-80X.
Connect the 48V DC power adapter to the FTP-80X and verify
that the Power LED lights up.
Turn on the power of the device/station, the TX Link and FX
Link LEDs should light when all cables are attached.

7. PoE function
FTP-80X and the IEEE 802.3af Injector / Splitter
equipment installation:
Before your installation, it is recommended to check your
network environment. If there is any IEEE 802.3af devices need
to power on, the FTP-80X can provide you a way to supply
power for this Ethernet device conveniently and easily. The
FTP-80X equips with an AC-DC adapter with DC 48V input and
injects this DC power into the pin of the twisted pair cable (pair
1, 2 and pair 3, 6).
If there is very difcult to nd a power socket for AC-DC
Adapter of your non-IEEE 802.3af networked device, the FTP-
80X and POE-151S / 152S can provide you a way to supply DC
power for this Ethernet device conveniently and easily.
For the places hard to nd the power inlet, the FTP-80X provide
the easiest way to power your Ethernet devices such as PLANET
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet Splitter (POE-151S / 152S)
with Internet Camera (ICA-210) or Wireless Access Point (WAP-
4060PE) installed in the wild rang place.
