Installation

N785-H01-SCMM and N785-H01-SCSM
Notes:

• The following installation instructions refer to an installation in which two media converters are used. A single media converter can be used for a copper-to-fiber installation.
• The following installation instructions refer to the N785-H01-SCMM. Connections are the same for the N785-H01-SCSM, with only the specs being different. See the Specifications section in this manual for details on your media converter.
• To avoid damage due to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), it is recommended you handle the product while wearing an ESD wrist grounding strap or by touching a conductive surface (such as metal) to discharge any potential ESD prior to handling the product.

Installation

1. Connect the  RJ45 port on the media converter to your network with a user-supplied Cat5e/6 cable.

2. 2 Connect the media converter to a second identical media converter using the appropriate type of fiber cable, making sure to connect the TX port on one unit to the RX port on the other.
   Note: See the Product Features section in this manual to determine which type of fiber cable is supported by your media converter.

3. Connect the RJ45 port on the second media converter to your network device (workstation, hub, switch, etc.) using a Cat5e/6 cable.

4. Connect the external power supplies that came with each media converter, and plug them into an AC power source.

N785-H01-SFP
Notes:

• The following installation instructions refer to an installation in which two media converters are used. A single media converter can be used for a copper-tofiber installation.
• The following installation instructions refer to the N785-H01-SFP. Connections are the same for all models, with only the specs being different. See the Specifications section in this manual for details on your media converter.
• To avoid damage due to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), it is recommended you handle the product while wearing an ESD wrist grounding strap or by touching
  conductive surface (such as metal) to discharge any potential ESD prior to handling the product.

1. Connect the RJ45 port on the media converter to your network with a user-supplied Cat5e/6 cable.
2. Connect a transceiver to the open SFP port on the media converter
3. Connect fiber cabling matching the transceiver type to the transceiver’s port and to a second media converter with a matching transceiver.
4. Connect the RJ45 port on the second media converter to your network device (workstation, hub, switch, etc.) using a Cat5e/6 cable.
5. Connect the external power supplies that came with each media converter, and plug them into an AC power source.

LED Status Table

LED Status Table

Link Fault Signaling (LFS)
The LFS LED will indicate when a cable has been severed or when some other cause of disruption in service has occurred. The LFS function monitors both copper and fiber segments for a total service report. Set DIP Switch 1 (LFS) to ON for normal operational use and to OFF when installing cables or when testing the network connection.

LoopBack Test
Each media converter features DIP switches to activate both local and remote loopback diagnostic test functions. Use the Local LoopBack (LLB) function to check if the copper segment is connected properly. Use the Remote LoopBack (RLB) function to check if the fiber segment is connected properly.
Note: When enabling loopback testing in one segment of the connection the other segment will be blocked until the loopback is disabled
