Installation
CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge
precautions when setting the 4-position switch and the jumper. Failure to
observe this caution could result in damage to, and subsequent failure of, the
media converter.
Set the 4-Position Switch
• The 4-position switch is
located on the media
converter circuit board.
• Use a small flat-blade
screwdriver to set the
switches (see the drawing).
NOTE: When the fiber port or the copper port is disabled (switches 1 and 2),
network traffic coming into the media converter is ignored and no traffic flows
out. In this mode, the media converter is disconnected from the network.
1. Fiber Port (10Base-FL)
Up Enables network traffic on the fiber port.
Down Disables network traffic on the fiber port.
2. Copper Port (10Base-T)
Up Enables network traffic on the copper port.
Down Disables network traffic on the copper port.
3. AutoCross
Up Enables AutoCross (see page 6).
Down Disables AutoCross.
(When AutoCross is disabled, the 10Base-T (copper) port is in
MDI-X (crossover) mode.)
4. Link Pass-Through
Up Enables Link Pass-Through (see page 6).
Down Disables Link Pass-Through.
(When Link Pass-Through is disabled, remote faults are not
passed along to any downstream equipment.)
Set the Jumper
The jumper is located on the media converter circuit board. Use small
needle-nosed pliers or a similar device to set the jumper.
Hardware The media converter mode is determined
by the 4-position switch settings.
Software The media converter mode is determined
by the most-recently saved, on-board
microprocessor settings. Software Mode

Install the Slide-in-Module
CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge
precautions when installing the CETTF10xx-200 slide-in-module media
converter. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to, and
subsequent failure of, the media converter.
To install the CETTF10xx-200 slide-in-module media converter.
1. Carefully slide the slide-in-module into the installation slot, aligning the
module with the installation guides.
2. Ensure that the module is firmly seated inside the chassis.
3. Push in and rotate the attached panel fastener screw clockwise to secure
the module to the chassis front.
Connect the Twisted-Pair Copper Cable
1. Locate or build IEEE 803.2™compliant 10Base-T cables, with straight-
through RJ-45 cable, and with straight-through RJ-45 connectors installed
at both ends.
2. Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on
the CETTF10xx-200 media converter.
3. Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45
port on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).

Operation
Status LEDs
Use the status LEDs to monitor the media converter
operation in the network
PWR (Power)On = Connection to external AC power.
LKF (Link -
fiber)On = The fiber link is up.
Off = A lack of power or a broken fiber link.
RXF (Receive -
fiber)Flashing = Data reception on the
fiber link.
LKC (Link -
copper)On = The copper link is up.
Off = A lack of power or a broken copper link.
RXC (Receive -
copper)Flashing = Data reception on
the copper link.
SNMP
Use SNMP at an attached terminal or at a remote location to monitor the
media converter by monitoring:
• Media converter power.
• Copper link and fiber link status.
• Copper receive and fiber receive status.
• Hardware switch settings.
• Fault Condition.
Also, use SNMP to enter network commands that:
• Enable/disable the copper port .
• Enable/disable the fiber port.
• Enable/disable AutoCross.
• Enable/disable Link Pass-Through.
• Power down the Media Converter.

Product Features
AutoCross™
The AutoCross feature detects and configures the twisted-pair copper port on
the CETTF10xx-200 media converter to the correct straight-through (MDI) or
crossover (MDI-X) configuration. This feature allows either MDI or MDI-X
cable to connect the media converter to devices such as hubs, transceivers, or
network interface cards (NICs).
NOTE: When AutoCross is disabled, the 10Base-T (copper) port is in MDI-X
(crossover) mode.
Link Pass-Through
The Link Pass-Through feature allows the media converter to monitor both the
fiber and copper RX (receive) ports for loss of signal. In the event of a loss of
an RX signal (1), the media converter will automatically disable the TX
(transmit) signal (2), thus, “passing through” the link loss (3). The far-end
device is automatically notified of the link loss (4), which prevents the loss of
valuable data unknowingly transmitted over an invalid link.
NOTE: An enable/disable switch allows the Link Pass-Through feature to be
disabled. Link Pass-Through may interfere with the Auto-Negotiation feature
of other devices in networks where there are two media converters installed in
series.
