6.1.3 UTP Issues
Problem:
The UTP link LED does not illuminate after installation is complete.
Possible Causes:
A. Confirm that the UTP cable is connected properly to the iConverter GX/TM and the attached UTP
device. Once a connection has been established between the iConverter and its link partner (switch or
workstation), the corresponding UTP LED should illuminate. If the LED does not illuminate, check the
Link Mode configuration. A link mode other than Link Segment may cause the UTP LED not to turn ON.
B. Verify the iConverter GX/TM UTP port is configured with the proper settings based on the attached
device (AN or MAN, 10 or 100 or 1000, HD or FD).
C. Verify the distance between the iConverter and the link partner is within 100 meters.
D. Confirm that the UTP cable pin-out is correct (EIA/TIA-568-A). The module has auto-crossover
capability, so it will accept either a straight-through or crossover cable.
NOTE: If corrective actions do not resolve your situation, please contact Omnitron Systems Technical
Support.
