10/100M2 Standalone Module QUICK START GUIDE

The Omnitron

iConverter

®

10/100M2 is a carrier-

class Network Interface Device (NID) that
provides 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX (10/100) to
100BASE-FX Fiber media conversion with
integrated management.

The 10/100M2 conforms to Ethernet in the
First Mile (EFM) fiber standards to support
Fiber-to-the-X (FTTX) Metropolitan access
and Enterprise LAN networks. 10/100M2
media converters are used to provide managed copper demarcation points at the
customer premises and network edge, offering service provisioning functions, such as
Quality of Service and Bandwidth Control (rate-limiting) capabilities.

The 10/100M2 can be managed using Omnitron’s

NetOutlook

TM

SNMP Management

Software, 3rd Party SNMP Client, Telnet or the Command Line Interface (CLI).

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

1) Configure DIP-Switches

2) Install Standalone Module 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 a port is operating in
Auto-Negotiation (AN), its
Pause operation mode is
determined by the Pause
capability advertised during
AN between itself and the
link partner. The port
advertises its Pause
capability (Symmetrical or
No Pause) during AN
based on the Pause
Disable/Enable DIP-switch setting.

When a port is operating in Manual mode, 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

The CLI interface allows for the detailed configuration of the module. It is recommended
to configure the module with an IP address associated with the attached network.
Also, SNMP traphost address should be configured if the module is managed with an
SNMP-based Management System. See the 10/100M2 User Manual for complete
information.

4) VERIFY OPERATION

Once the module has been installed
and configured per steps 1 - 3, verify
the module is operational by viewing
the LED indicators.

The Power LED indicates the
module is receiving power.

The Fiber Optic link LED indicates
the fiber optic connection has been
established. Verify the Link Mode
selection is set to Link Segment
(LS). Until a stable link is
established, leave the Link Mode
configured for LS. After a Link
presence is established, the Link
Mode selection can be modified.

The UTP link LED indicates the
module has established a
connection across its UTP port.
