1.0 OVERVIEW

This document describes the installation and conguration of the iConverter Gx AN standalone and plug-in

modules.

1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Omnitron iConverter® Gx AN provides 1000BASE-T copper to 1000BASE-X ber media conversion.

The ber optic port supports auto and forced negotiation conguration via DIP-switches. The RJ-45 port

automatically detects and advertises the Duplex and Pause abilities of connected copper devices.

The iConverter Gx AN models with xed-ber connectors are available with multimode (MM) dual-ber,

single-mode (SM) dual-ber and single-mode single-ber (SF) options. They support ST, SC and LC

connectors with distances up to 2km over MM ber, 140km over SM ber and 40km over SF. The Gx AN

Small Form Pluggable (SFP) model supports a wide variety of 1000BASE-X SFP transceivers.

The Gx AN plug-in module is a managed media converter when installed in a chassis with a management

module such as the Network Management Module (NMM2) or a module with integrated management. The

standalone module is an unmanaged media converter supporting DIP-switches for conguration options.

2.0 PORT STRUCTURE

2.1 OVERVIEW

The front panel of the Gx AN provides access to the copper and ber ports. The ber port will vary

depending on the connector type; ST, SC, LC or SFP supporting 1000BASE-X transceivers.

2.1.1 RJ-45 and Fiber Ports

The ber interface supports the 1000BASE-X protocol. The ber interface operates in manual mode or

auto-negotiation and supports Full-Duplex operation.

The RJ-45 port supports 1000BASE-T protocols, auto-negotiation mode for Half and Full-Duplex. When

the ber port is operating in manual mode, the RJ-45 port can be congured to negotiate to a specic

duplex mode.

3.0 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

3.1 OVERVIEW

The following steps outline the installation and conguration procedures for the Gx AN. Refer to the

specied sections for detailed instructions.

• Conguring DIP-switches (Section 3.2)

• Installing the Module and Connecting Cables (Section 3.3)

• Verifying Operation (Section 3.4)

When the setup and conguration procedures are completed, the Gx AN has been congured with the basic

setup requirement for standard operation. To congure the module with additional features, see Section

4.0, “Detailed Module Conguration”.

3.2 CONFIGURING DIP-SWITCHES

The Gx AN module has one bank of DIP-switches. The locations of the DIP-switches are illustrated below.

Figure A: DIP-switch Locations

3.2.1 DIP-switch Settings

SW1 - Port 1 Auto/Manual Negotiation “AN MAN”

When this DIP-switch is in the Auto-Negotiate “AN” position (factory default), the ber optic port is

transparent to the network and allows the end devices connected to the module to advertise through the

module and establish negotiated settings between the end devices. If Port 2 (RJ-45) is not connected, the

ber port will not be able to establish a ber link. In the AN mode, the DIP-switches for Pause, Port 2

(RJ-45) and link modes RFD and SFD are ignored.

If two Gx AN modules are linked together and Port 1 is congured for auto-negotiation, the mode of

operation will be determined by the devices connected to Port 2 (RJ-45). Port 1 is transparent to the process.

Page 4

When this DIP-switch is in the Manual “MAN” position, the advertised auto-negotiation capabilities of

Port 2 is controlled by DIP-switches SW2 through SW5.

3.3 INSTALLING THE MODULE AND CONNECTING CABLES

3.3.1 Plug-In Modules

a. Carefully slide the module into an open slot in the chassis. Align the module with the installation guides

and ensure that the module is rmly seated against the backplane. Secure the module by fastening the

front panel thumbscrew (push in and turn clockwise to tighten) to the chassis front. Verify the “Pwr”

LED is ON (indicating the chassis is powered).

b. When using a Gx AN SFP model, insert the SFP Fiber transceiver into the Port 1 SFP receptacle on

the Gx AN.

NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed (up) position before

insertion.

c. Connect the RJ-45 port via a Category 5 or better cable to a 1000BASE-T Ethernet device.

d. Connect the appropriate multimode or single-mode ber cable to the ber port of the installed module.

It is important to ensure that the transmit (TX) is attached to the receive side of the device at the other

end and the receive (RX) is attached to the transmit side. Single-ber (SF) media converter models

operate in pairs. The TX wavelength must match the RX wavelength at the other end and the RX

wavelength must match the TX wavelength at the other end.

Page 6

3.3.2 Standalone Modules

a. The Gx AN standalone media converter is available in tabletop and wall-mounting models. For wall-

mounting, attach the Gx AN to a wall, backboard or other at surfaces. For tabletop installation, place

the unit on a at and level surface. Attach the rubber feet to the bottom of the Gx AN to prevent the

unit from sliding. Make sure the unit is placed in a safe, dry and secure location.

To power the unit using the AC/DC adapter, connect the AC/DC adapter to the AC outlet. Then

connect the barrel plug at the end of the wire on the AC/DC adapter to the 2.5mm DC barrel connector

(center-positive) on the unit. Conrm that the unit has powered up properly by checking the power

status LED located on the front of the unit.

To power the unit using a DC power source, prepare a power cable using a two-conductor insulated

wire (not supplied) with a 14 AWG gauge minimum. Cut the power cable to the length required. Strip

approximately 3/8 of an inch of insulation from the power cable wires. Connect the power cables to

the standalone unit by fastening the stripped ends to the DC power connector.

Connect the power wires to the DC power source. The Power LED should indicate the presence of

power.

WARNING: Note the wire colors used in making the positive, negative and ground connections.

Use the same color assignment for the connection at the DC power source.

NOTE: If mounting with a safety ground attachment, use the safety ground screw at the rear

of the unit.

b. When using a Gx AN SFP model, insert the SFP Fiber transceiver into the Port 1 SFP receptacle on

the Gx AN.

NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed (up) position before

insertion.

c. Connect the RJ-45 port via a Category 5 or better cable to a 1000BASE-T Ethernet device.

d. Connect the appropriate multimode or single-mode ber cable to the ber port of the installed module.

It is important to ensure that the transmit (TX) is attached to the receive side of the device at the other

end and the receive (RX) is attached to the transmit side. Single-ber (SF) media converter models

operate in pairs. The TX wavelength must match the RX wavelength at the other end and the RX

wavelength must match the TX wavelength at the other end.

3.4 VERIFYING OPERATION

Once the module has been installed and congured, per Sections 3.2 - 3.3, verify the module is operational

by viewing the status of the LED indicators. The table below provides a description for each LED indicator.

The Power LED indicates the module is receiving power from the chassis.

The Fiber Optic “FO” LED indicates the ber optic connection between the modules has been established.

A blinking LED indicates the presence of data, an auto-negotiation problem or a link mode error indication.

The RJ-45 LEDs indicate the module has established a connection across its RJ-45 port. A blinking LED

indicates the presence of data or a link mode error indication.

Refer to Section 6.0, Troubleshooting Guide, for help in determining possible fault conditions.

4.0 CONFIGURING THE MODULE VIA COMMAND LINE INTERFACE

4.1 OVERVIEW

To congure the Gx AN plug-in module, a module with integrated management (NMM2 or M-Class

module) must be installed in the same chassis. Conguration of the module will be done through the serial

management connection on the management module.

Attach the ends of a serial cable to the serial port of the PC and the Serial Console Port on the management

module. This is a standard asynchronous serial interface.

Use a terminal emulation software such as Procomm or Putty to access the module.

Set the PC’s serial port to the following:

Bits Per Second 57,600

Stop Bits 1

Data Bits 8

Parity NONE

Hardware Flow Control NONE
