Media Converter Module Indicators |
Power / TST |
This green LED is turned on when power is applied to the media
converter. Otherwise it is off. The LED will blink when in Loopback
test mode. |
Fiber link on / Receive activity (LKF) |
This green LED is operational only when power is applied. The
LED is on when the 1000Base-X link is on and flashes with a 50% duty
cycle when data is received. The LED will slow blink when the 1000Base-X
interface has been taken down as a result of a fault on the 1000Base-T
interface. |
Copper link on / Receive activity (LKC) |
This green LED is operational only when power is applied. The
LED is on when the 1000Base-T link is on and flashes with a 50% duty
cycle when data is received. The LED will slow blink when the 1000Base-T
interface has been taken down as a result of a fault on the 1000Base-T
interface. |

Auto-Negotiation |
Enabled (Default - Up) In this mode the 1000Base-X and the
1000Base-T will negotiate to the HCD of the two link partners. The
1000Base-X will link up after the negotiation is completed and the
1000Base-T has linked up.
Disabled - The 1000Base-X will not use auto negotiation. The
1000Base-T will negotiate to the HCD of the Switch settings and the link
partner. |
Link Mode |
Link Mode provides a transparency to the state of the copper
link allowing for simplified trouble shooting from the devices connected
to the media converter.
Normal (Default – Up)
With Fiber Auto Negotiation enabled when the 1000Base-T link
goes down the 1000Base-X link is brought down. The 1000Base-X link will
advertise Remote Fault (Link Fault).
With Fiber Auto Negotiation disabled the state of the 1000Base-T link has no effect on the 1000Base-X link.
Smart Link Pass Through (Down)
With Fiber Auto Negotiation enabled the behavior is as follows.
When the 1000Base-T link goes down the 1000Base-X link is brought down.
The 1000Base-X link will advertise Remote Fault (Link Fault). When
Remote Fault (Link Fault) is received on the 1000Base-X interface the
1000Base-T transmitter will be turned off. When the 1000Base-T receiver
is off the 1000Base-X transmitter will be turned off. When the
1000Base-X receiver goes off the 1000Base-T transmitter will be turned
off.
With Fiber Auto-Negotiation disabled the behavior is as follows.
When the 1000Base-T receiver is off the 1000Base-X transmitter will be
turned off. When the 1000Base-X receiver goes off the 1000Base-T
transmitter will be turned off. |
Pause |
When Fiber Auto Negotiation is disabled Pause should only be
enabled when all devices connected to the media converter support pause.
Enabled(Default) - The Media converter will advertise Pause capable, Asymmetric pause not needed during Auto-Negotiation.
Disabled - The Media converter will advertise that it does not have Pause capability during Auto-Negotiation. |
Fiber Fault Alert |
The Fiber Fault Alert switch has meaning when Auto-Negotiation is disabled
Enabled (Default - Up)
When the 1000Base-X receiver is off the 1000Base-X transmitter
is turned off. Periodically the 1000Base-X receiver will be turned on
for a short period to allow the condition to clear if the 1000Base-X
link partner is using a similar feature.
Disabled (Down) |
Duplex |
Full (Default-Up) - The media converter will advertise Full Duplex Capable, Half Duplex Capable.
AUTO (Down) -The media converter will advertise Full Duplex Not Capable, Half Duplex Capable. |
Remote Loopback |
The media converter can perform a loopback on the 1000Base-X fiber interface.
Disabled (Default - Up)
Enabled - The 1000Base-X receiver is looped to the 1000Base-X
transmitter. The 1000Base-T transmitter is taken off the interface. |

Auto-Negotiation (802.3ab) |
The media converter supports auto
negotiation. The 1000Base-X fiber interface negotiates
according to 802.3 clause 37. The 1000Base-T
negotiates according to 802.3 clause 28 and 40.
The 1000Base-X will link up with its partner
after the highest common denominator (HCD) is
reached and the copper has linked up with its
partner. The 1000Base-X will continue to cycle
through negotiation transmitting a remote fault
of offline (provided this is enabled through
the switch setting) until the copper is linked
up and the HCDs match.
The media converter supports auto-negotiation of full duplex, half duplex, remote
fault, full duplex pause, asymmetric pause and Auto MDI-X. |
Auto-MDIX with Skew Correction |
Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface
crossover) detects the signaling on the 1000Base-T
interface to determine the type of cable connected
(straight-through or crossover) and automatically
configures the connection when enabled. The media
converter can also correct for wires swapped
within a pair.
The media converter will adjust
for up to 64ns of delay skew between the 1000Base-T
pairs. |
Smart Link Pass-Through |
When the Link Mode switch is placed into Smart
Link Pass-Through mode, the 1000BASE TX port
will reflect the state of the 1000Base-X media
converter port. This feature can be used whether
fiber auto-negotiation is enabled or disabled. |
Fiber Fault Alert |
With Fiber Fault Alert the state of the 1000Base-X
receiver is passed to the 1000Base-X transmitter.
This provides fault notification to the partner
device attached to the 1000Base-X interface of
the media converter. If the 1000Base-X transmitter
is off as a result of this fault it will be turned
on periodically to allow the condition to clear
should the partner device on the 1000Base-X be
using a similar technique. This eliminates the
possibility of lockouts that occur with some
media converters. Applies only when fiber auto-negotiation
is disabled. |
Pause (IEEE 802.3x) |
Pause signaling is an IEEE feature that temporarily
suspends data transmission between two devices
in the event that one of the devices becomes
overwhelmed. The media converter supports pause
negotiation on the 1000Base-T fiber connection
and 1000Base-X fiber connection. Select Symmetrical, asymmetrical TX or asymmetrical RX |
Duplex |
Full and half
duplex operation supported. |
Jumbo Packets |
Transparent to jumbo packets up to 10KB-default. Jumbo packet support can be disabled. |
VLAN |
Transparent to VLAN
tagged packets. Default Jumbo packet can be disabled. |
Remote Loopback |
Capable of performing
a loopback on the 1000Base-X fiber interface. |
