4. Installing the Converter

4.1 POE120 converter connected to a Power Sourcing Equipment

Device (PSE)

1. Connect the copper cable to your IEEE 802.3af compliant PSE device.

The POE120 can also work as a standard media converter and
connect to a non POE device. (power supply is optional)

2. Connect the fibre cable to your connecting device.


Note:

- Please make sure that the 802.3af power is being supplied from a PSE

device to the PD Media Converter.

- In case there is no 802.3af PSE available or the PSE device power

fails, you may install an AC-DC adapter as a backup solution. Do not
connect the PSE Copper port and a AC-DC adapter at the same time.
(the power options are not designed in a redundant configuration)

Default: Auto
Auto or Force setting, see figure 11. S1-Bit 1


TP

Port

Attach Cat. 5 cable to the copper port and ensure the cable run is not
over 100m in distance.
The Copper port supports Auto MDI-X, therefore there is no need to
use a cross-over cable when connecting to a switch.

Fibre

Port

Default: 100FDX
