Revision History

Caution
Circuit devices are sensitive to static electricity, which can damage their delicate electronics. Dry weather conditions or walking across a carpeted floor may cause you to acquire a static electrical charge.

To protect your device, always:

• Touch the metal chassis of your computer to ground the static electrical charge before you pick up the circuit device.
• Pick up the device by holding it on the left and right edges only.

Overview

10/100/1000Base-T to 1000Based-SX/LX LC IEEE802.3 ab/z/at GbE media converter, which allows two types of network segments to be connected easily and inexpensively. Complied with IEEE802.3at Power Over Ethernet standard, this AC powered PoE media converter is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) which combines data received over a TP link with –48VDC power, providing power to IEEE802.3at powered device (PD) over the existing CAT5 UTP cable. The converter includes a PD signature sensing and power monitoring features. Other features include over-current protection, under-current detection and fault protection input. The LFP (Link Fault Pass-through) allows the media converter to monitor both the fiber and copper RX ports for loss of signal. In case of a loss of RX signal on one media port, the converter will automatically disable the TX signal to the other media port, thus passing through the link fault. FEF (Far End Fault) enables the converter to stop sending link pulse to the link partner once a loss of the fiber RX signal is encountered. Then the link partner will synchronously stop sending data. FEF prevents loss of valuable data transmitted over invalid link. Combining LFP and FEF troubleshooting features of RP-130GPFPA, both end devices can be notified of a loss of fiber link.

Checklist

Before you start installing the Converter, verify that the package contains the following:

• The PoE PSE TP-Fiber Converter
• AC Power Cord
• This User’s Manual

Please notify your sales representative immediately if any of the aforementioned items is missing or damaged.

Installing the Converter

PSE TP-Fiber Converter with Powered Device (PD)

• Connect the PSE media converter to an AC power source

• Install the TP media cable to the IEEE 802.3at PD converter (See Fig. 2)
  Note : It can work as a pure converter that connects to the non-PoE converter.

• Install the media cable for network connection

Warning:

• Verify that the AC input conforms to your country AC power requirement and then insert the power plug
• Ensure that the power of PSE device is turned on
• Install the media cable for network connection

The TP-Fiber converter is specially designed with an optic Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) model that can transport bi-directional full duplex signal over a single fiber simultaneously

Note:
The 1310nm and 1550nm models must be installed in pairs, i.e., install 1310nm model at one end and 1550nm model at the other one.

Link Fault Pass Through

The Converter model of LFP (link fault pass through) in TX/FX converter application is controlled by the software and instantly take effect. Link status on one port is propagated to the other port to notice the remote nodes. If TP port is unplugged, this converter stops transmission on fiber port. This causes the remote fiber node link to fail. LED shows the link failure on both TP and fiber ports. If fiber link fails, this converter restarts auto- negotiation on TP port but always stays in the link failure state. This causes the remote TP node link to fail. LED also shows the link failure on both TP and fiber ports. Refer to Fig. 9 shown below for the normal status when the link succeeds. Also refer to Fig. 10 and Fig. 11 for the erroneous status when TP Cable A, Fiber Cable B or Fiber Cable C fails to connect.
Note : Link fault pass through (LFP) function only takes effect as S1- Bit2 (see Fig. 15) is enabled. Disabled S1-Bit2 will turn this media converter into a general one.

Notice : The LFP ( Link Fault Pass Through) function can work with different link partners (for Example: Fiber port on Switch). It does not need both two converters with the same model in pairs.
