Install the Twisted-Pair Copper Cable
1. Locate or build 10Base-T or 100Base-TX copper cables with male, RJ-45
connectors installed at both ends.
2. Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port
connector on the media converter.
3. Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45
port connector on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).
NOTE: The MDI (straight-through) or MDI-X (crossover) cable connection is
configured automatically, according to the network conditions.
Installation -- Continued
Install the Fiber Cable
1. Locate or build 100Base-FX fiber cable with male, two-stranded TX to RX
connectors installed at both ends.
2. Connect the fiber cables to the media converter as described:
• Connect the male TX cable connector to the female TX connector.
• Connect the male RX cable connector to the female RX connector.
3. Connect the fiber cables to the other device (another media converter,
hub, etc.) as described:
• Connect the male TX cable connector to the female RX connector.
• Connect the male RX cable connector to the female TX connector.

Operation
Power the Media Converter
1. Connect the barrel connector on the power adapter to the media
converter’s power port (located on the back of the media converter).
2. Connect the power adapter plug to AC power.
3. Verify that the media converter is powered by observing the illuminated
LED power indicator light.
For DC power, consult the user’s guide for the Transition Networks SPS1872-
xx DC external power supply for powering the media converter.
NOTE: The external power supply provided with this product is UL listed by
the power supply’s manufacturer.
Status LEDs
Use the status LEDs to monitor the media converter and the network
connections.
PWR (Power)
On = Connection to external AC or DC power.
FLNK (Fiber Link)
On = Fiber link connection.
Flashing = Fiber network activity.
FDPX (Fiber Duplex)
On = Full-duplex fiber connection.
Off = Half-duplex fiber connection.
TLKN (Twisted-Pair Link)
On = Copper link connection.
Flashing = Copper network activity.
TDPX (Twisted-Pair Duplex)
On = Full-duplex copper connection.
Off = Half-duplex copper connection.
TSPD (Twisted-Pair Speed)
On = 100 Mb/s.
Off = 10 Mb/s.
