1. Introduction
TRP-C41 is a device for Ethernet extension over fiber, it supports point-to-point and networked
systems. The high fiber bandwidth connections solve problems with electrical noise and different
ground potentials over long transmission lines. TRP-C41 supports 10/100Base-TX transmissions
up to 100 meters and 100Base-FX transmissions up to 60KM. It is the perfect solution for wide
distance connections with high immunity to electrical noise.

3. Install TRP-C41
3-1. Power input type
The TRP-C41 has three power input types, power can be supplied from
1. 2-pin screw terminal block
2. External DC plug
3. USB port.
When power is properly supplied the PWR LED will lighting to indicate the system is up. User
can only choose one of the three power sources, do not connect different power source
simultaneously.
3-2. Select power source
User may select the power source by power select switch. The method is as below.
1. Find the power select switch located at the right side of 2-pin screw terminal block.
2. Move the switch to “USB PWR” to enable USB power input, and disable screw terminal and
external DC adapter. User may input power from USB port by USB A/B cable.
3. Move the switch to “EXT PWR” to disable USB power input, and enable screw terminal and
external DC adapter, user may input power from either screw terminal block or DC adapter.
3-3. Ethernet Connection
TRP-C41 support auto MDI/MDIX RJ-45 cable that mean user may use a straight-through or
crossover cable connection between TRP-C41 and Ethernet hub, switch, or wall plate. And also
can link directly to the NIC (Network Interface Card) on a PC or laptop. If the cable is properly
connected the “E-LINK” LED will light up.
3-4. Fiber connection

TRP-C41 has a 100Mbps fiber port with single mode SC fiber connector, user may use standard
62.5/125um, 1310 nM wavelength fiber cable for TX and RX connection, when fiber cable is
connected the F-Link, F-SD and F-FDX LED will light up.
4. Getting Start
1. Connect power source with TRP-C41.
2. Connect TRP-C41 with LAN port (Ethernet Hub or Switch) by RJ45 LAN cable.
3. Connect TRP-C41 with SC Fiber RX and TX cable
