Overview This document contains instructions necessary for the installation and operation of the Perle 10/100 Ethernet Media Converter Module(s) (C-110 and CM-110) that are used in conjunction with a Perle MCR Chassis. The C- 110 are unmanaged media converter modules, and the CM-110 are the managed versions. These products convert a 10/100Base-T connection (copper) to a 100Base-X connection (fiber). The fiber connection can be either single mode (SM) or multimode (MM) and can operate over

Installation The module comes equipped with a bank of DIP switches and jumpers for setting configuration. The default dip switch settings (all switches in the UP position) and default jumper settings will work for most installations. The following steps are used to configure the Perle 10/100 Ethernet Media Converter Module: 1. Set the Auto-MDIX jumper (optional). 2. Set the Auto-Config jumper (CM-110 only) (optional) 3. Set the DIP switch settings (optional). 4. Insert the M

Auto-Config Jumper (CM-110 only) The Auto-Config jumper (J6) is located just below the Auto-MDIX jumper (see above). Refer to the diagram below for labelling. This jumper only applies to CM-110 modules. Strapping pins 1 and 2 of the jumper will set the module in SW mode and strapping pins 2 and 3 will set it in Auto Config mode. Auto: When set to Auto the module will, at power-up, check its internal flash memory to see if configuration information has been downloaded to it from a mana

fiber link on either the transmit or receive line will be passed through to the local copper connection thus notifying the connected device. If the Media Converter has been set to Link Pass-Through mode, the effect will be the same as FEF, since the link loss on the fiber receiver will result in bringing down the copper link, which will in turn cause the transmit fiber link to be brought down. Note: If it is required to either generate or detect the FEF signal, then the FEF switch ne

Installing or Replacing Media Converter Modules Caution: Observe electrostatic discharge precautions when installing the Media Converter Module(s) into the Chassis. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the Media Converter Module(s) and /or chassis. The Perle Media Converter Modules can be installed in any available slot and in any order within the Chassis. Installing or Replacing a Media Converter Module 1. Remove the Media Converter Module from its pac

6. Tighten the captive retainer screw to ensure the Media Converter Module is locked in place. 7. Remove the dust cap from the fiber connector and connect the fiber and copper cables. Removing Media Convert Modules 1. Loosen the captive retainer screw on the front of the Media Converter Module and gently pull the Media Converter Module out. 2. If not inserting a replacement, cover the opened slot with a face plate and secure the screw Installing the Duplex Fiber Cable Loc

• Connect the fiber cable from one Media Converter Module to the other Media Converter/switch/fiber device. Installing the Copper Cable • Locate 10/100Base-T compliant copper cables with male, RJ- 45 connectors installed at both ends. • Connect the RJ-45 cable between the Perle Media Converter Module and the device. Note: The Perle Media Converter Module supports Auto-MDIX which allows a straight-through or cross-over Ethernet cable. See page 4 in this guide for jumper positions.

Operation Status LED The Perle 10/100 Ethernet Media Converter Modules have six single color status LEDs located on the face plate of the module. PWR 100 (copper speed) On – Power is on; module is On – 100 Mbps operating normally Off – 10 Mbps Blinking (slow) – The module is in Loopback mode. Blinking (fast) – The module has a hardware failure. FDF (fiber) FDC (copper) On – Full Duplex Mode. On – Full Duplex Mode. Off – Half Duplex Mode. Off – Half Duplex Mode.

Other Features Auto-MDIX: Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface crossover) detects the signalling on the 10/100BASE-T interface to determine the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and automatically configures the connection. Error Recovery: In certain configurations, and under specific conditions where the Media Converter Module brings down a link to convey status, there is potential for a deadlock. Recovery is achieved by momentarily restoring

Troubleshooting General • Ensure that the Media Converter Module is securely seated in the chassis. The PWR LED should be on. • Ensure both devices on either end of the fiber are compatible. If using a simplex fiber connection, ensure that you have both an Upstream (U) and Downstream (D) Media Converter. • Ensure all cabling is of the correct type and is in good working order. • For duplex fiber connections, ensure the RX and TX has been reversed between the two Media Converters.

Method 2: The fiber connection can also be verified by configuring the remote Media Converter for loopback mode. The LKF LEDs on both Media Converters should be lit. Data should pass through the local converter, over the fiber connection to the remote Media Converter. At the remote Media Converter, the data will be looped back and passed through the fiber, once again, to pass through the local converter to the copper link. Note: If troubleshooting a CM-110, setting the Auto-Config ju
