the rubber feet to the bottom of the NID to prevent the unit from sliding. Make sure

the unit is placed in a safe, dry and secure location.

To power the unit using the AC/DC adapter, connect the AC/DC adapter to the AC

outlet. Then connect the barrel plug at the end of the wire on the AC/DC adapter

to the 2.5mm DC barrel connector (center-positive) on the chassis. Confirm that

the unit has powered up properly by checking the power 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 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 and negative

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.

b. When using a GX/TM2 SFP model (8939N-0), insert the SFP Fiber transceiver into

the Port 1 SFP receptacle on the GX/TM2.

NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed

position before insertion.

c. Connect an 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.

d. Connect the UTP port via a Category 5 cable to a 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or

1000BASE-T Ethernet device.

To access the Command Line Interface (CLI), connect the GX/TM2 RS-232 Console

Port to the COM port of a computer equipped with terminal emulation software such

as HyperTerminal. The Console Port (DCE) is a mini DIN-6 female connector which

can be changed to a DB-9 connector with the included adapter. The GX/TM2 Console

Port is a standard asynchronous serial interface.
Start HyperTerminal and select the correct COM Port in the HyperTerminal “Connect

To:” window. Set the serial port to the following:

link modes DOWN (default) during the initial installation. After the circuit has been tested

and operational, configure the module for the desire mode. plication note “
