INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

1) Configure DIP-Switches
2) Install Module in Chassis and Connect Cables
3) Configure Module via Command Line Interface
4) Verify Operation

1) CONFIGURE DIP-SWITCHES
DIP-SWITCH BANK 1

SW1 - UTP/FIBER PAUSE ENABLE
When this DIP-switch is in the Left “OFF” position,

Pause is disabled. When the DIP-switch is in the

Right “PAUS” position Pause is enabled.
When a port is configured for Auto-Negotiation

(AN), Pause operation is determined during the

negotiation process between itself and the link

partner. The port advertises its Pause capability

(Symmetrical or No Pause) based on the Pause

Disable/Enable DIP-switch setting.
When a port is operating in Manual mode (MAN),

its Pause operation mode is based on the Pause

Disable/Enable DIP-switch setting.
SW2 - FIBER FULL/HALF DUPLEX
Setting this DIP-switch to Half-Duplex “HDX”

facilitates a connection that supports Half-Duplex.

Setting this DIP-switch to Full-Duplex “FDX”

facilitates a connection that supports Full-Duplex

operation.

Once connected, press <ENTER> to bring up a command line prompt on the attached

PC.
