Troubleshooting

General Troubleshooting

•

During installation, first test the fiber and BNC

connections with all troubleshooting features disabled;
then enable these features, if desired, just before final
installation. This will reduce the features’
interference with testing.

•

When working with units where the features cannot be

disabled, you must establish BOTH your BNC and fiber
connections; the NO LNK LEDs should not be lit (i.e. NO
LNK LED not lit = good connection, NO LNK LED lit =
problem).

•

To test a media converter by itself, first make sure you

have an appropriate fiber patch cable, then follow these
steps to test:

1.

Connect the media converter to the BNC device with a

coax cable.

2.

Loop a single strand of fiber from the transmit port

to the receive port of your media converter.

3.

Verify that you have a valid connection for both the

BNC and fiber ports on your media converter.

•

If there is trouble with link connectivity, make sure the

connection is made using 75W Coax cable.
