Installation
1. Install the media converter with the DC power adapter
provided. ( +12VDC, 500mA)
2. Connect the power adapter cable to the media con-
verter before connecting the adapter to the AC outlet.
3. Do not connect more than two media converters in
series.
General Description
The 10BASE-T/10BASE-FL Ethernet media converter is
designed to be a connection interface between a 10BASE-T
Ethernet UTP cable and 10BASE-FL fiber cable with no
increasing on the hop count in the network. It features a
RJ-45 connector and a pair of fiber optic connectors. This
guide covers the following three models to support
different fiber cables as follows:
Converter/T
UTP to multimode fiber with ST connectors
Converter/C
UTP to multimode fiber with SC connectors
Converter/S
UTP to single mode fiber with ST connectors
