altered by persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech,

or which have been subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper instal-

lation. Advantech assumes no liability under the terms of this warranty as

a consequence of such events.

Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous test-

be billed according to the cost of replacement materials, service time and

freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.

If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:

1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For

example, CPU speed, Advantech products used, other hardware

and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list any

onscreen messages you get when the problem occurs.

2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your man-

ual, product, and any helpful information readily available.

3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return

merchandize authorization) number from your dealer. This allows

us to process your return more quickly.

4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and

Replacement Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date

(such as your sales receipt) in a shippable container. A product

returned without proof of the purchase date is not eligible for war-

ranty service.

ADAM-6541 User Manual 2

Chapter 1 Overview

1.1 Introduction

The ADAM-6541 is an industrial grade converter designed to convert

Ethernet network (10/100Base-TX) to fiber network (100Base-FX). It

transparently converts Ethernet signals into optic signals. The advantages

of Fiber optic are wide bandwidth, anti-EMI and suitable for long-dis-

tance transmission. Therefore, ADAM-6541 is an ideal solution for “fiber

to building” application in central offices or local sites.

The ADAM-6541 can be mounted in the following three ways: DIN Rail,

panel, piggyback mounting. +10~30 VDC operating voltages are also sup-

plied over the terminal block. In addition, the operating temperature

ranges from -10 ~ 65° C. The above functions make the ADAM-6541 a

stable and reliable industrial grade converter.

High-Speed Transmissions

The ADAM-6541 supports MDI/MDI-X of auto detection. You will not

need to crossover. A switch controller that can automatically sense trans-

mission speed (10/100 Mbps) will be included. Both Ethernet and fiber

ports have memory buffers that support store-and-forward mechanism; it

assures proper data transmission.

Flexible Mounting

The ADAM-6541 is extremely compact and can be mounted in three dif-

ferent ways: DIN rail, panel and piggyback mounting.

Easy Troubleshooting

The ADAM-6541 provides three LED indicators: Power, Full/Link, 10/

100Mbps, which easily let you troubleshoot.

Robust Enough for Industrial Environments

The ADAM-6541 can normally work from -10° C to 65° C and accepts

wide unregulated voltage range from +10 ~ 30 VDC. Besides, it also pro-

vides 3,000 VDC surge protection (EFT) to protect it from over-voltage

damages. It is suitable for any harsh operating environment.
