status LED located on the front of the unit.

To power the unit using a DC power source, prepare a power cable using a two-conductor insulated
wire (not supplied) with a 14 AWG gauge minimum. Cut the power cable to the length required. Strip
approximately 3/8 of an inch of insulation from the power cable wires. Connect the power cables
to the standalone unit by fastening the stripped ends to the DC power connector.

Connect the power wires to the DC power source. The Power LED should indicate the presence of
power.

WARNING: Note the wire colors used in making the positive, negative and ground connections.
Use the same color assignment for the connection at the DC power source.

NOTE: If mounting with a safety ground attachment, use the safety ground screw at the rear of
the unit.

When using a Gx AN SFP model, insert the SFP Fiber transceiver into the Port 1 SFP receptacle on the
Gx AN.

NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed (up) position before
insertion.

c.

Connect the UTP port via a Category 5 or better cable to a 1000BASE-T Ethernet device.

d.

Connect the appropriate multimode or single-mode fiber cable to the fiber port of the installed module.
It is important to ensure that the transmit (TX) is attached to the receive side of the device at the other
end and the receive (RX) is attached to the transmit side. Single-fiber (SF) media converter models
operate in pairs. The TX wavelength must match the RX wavelength at the other end and the RX
wavelength must match the TX wavelength at the other end.
