FCC Compliance Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with
the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there
is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment
does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by
turning the equipment o and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by
one or more of the following measures:
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit dierent from that to which the receiver
is connected.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Introduction
The ET1110PSE PSE / PoE Gigabit Fiber Power over Ethernet Media Converter
with Open SFP creates an Ethernet-Fiber link, transparently converting from
10/100/1000Base-T copper to 1000Base-SX/LX ber, while acting as a Power Sourcing
Equipment (PSE) device. The PoE media converter oers the added exibility of an
open SFP slot, allowing you to choose the gigabit SFP that best suits your network
requirements for ber connection type and distance - see full line of compatible
Gigabit transceivers for this product at StarTech.com Accessories.
The open SFP media converter is capable of delivering up to 48V DC power to IEEE
802.3af devices such as wireless access points (WAP) or IP cameras, using standard Cat
5 (or better) cabling - an ideal solution for providing data and power to areas where
electrical wall outlets may not be available, saving the hassle and expense of running
new electrical wiring.
Backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty and free lifetime technical support.

DIP Switch Setting
The ET1110PSE is provisioned through the use of a single 4‐pole DIP (Dual Inline
Package) switch located on the front panel. Setting a switch down places it in
the ON position.
Switches 1&2: provide setting auto‐negotiation (Nway) or manual forced speed of 10,
100 or 1000. Default is all OFF.
Switch 3: when ON (down), sets the forced Half Duplex for either 10Base or 100Base, or
sets Full Duplex when OFF (up).
Switch 4: is used to enable the LFP (Link Fault Pass‐Thru) function. LFP is enabled
when the switch is ON (down).

Installation
1. Insert a compatible SFP Gigabit module into the open SFP slot
2. Connect the power supply to the Fiber Media Converter
3. Connect the appropriately terminated Fiber cable to the Fiber Tx/Rx port
4. Connect the other end of the ber cable into the router/switch/computer NIC/
another media converter (Remember to reverse the TX and RX leads between the
two devices)
5. Connect an Ethernet patch cable to the Fiber Media Converter “LAN”port
6. Connect the other end of the Ethernet patch cable to your endpoint device
Link-Fault-Pass Through (LFP) Note
This media converter incorporates a ber link pass through feature which allows
indirect sensing of a ber link loss via 10/100/1000 Base‐TX UTP connection. Whenever
the media converter detects a link loss condition on the receive ber (FX LNK O),
it disables its UTP transmitter so that a link loss condition is sensed on the receive
UTP port. (See the following gure) The link loss can then be sensed and reported by
network management agent at the remote UTP port’s host equipment.
The LFP feature has no eect on the media converter’s UTP Link LED, which continues
to function normally, independent of the state of the ber LNK LED and the UTP
transmitter. This feature is disabled by default from the factory.
