1. Introduction

LevelOne media converters are Fast Ethernet 100Base-TX to

100Base-FX and 1000Base-T to 1000Base-SX/LX converters to

provide the flexibility required in network integration. The TX port

auto-sense connection speed, auto-negotiates half/full duplex

modes and auto-selects MDIX media type. The fiber connectors

come with multimode or singlemode, SC, ST or SFP connector to

provide necessary connection interface and distance capabilities.

LevelOne have designed 19” racks to organize media converters the

smart way by providing a single power supply. With the

Plug-and-play technology, the converter is easy to set-up and run.

For simple, cost-effective network design, LevelOne converter

series is the perfect solution to bridge the complex network

infrastructure.

2.4. DIP-switch

The DIP-switch is used to configure operation mode for LLF (Link

Lost Forwarding) and operation mode for UTP/Fiber port. The

default value of DIPswitch is OFF.

Link Lost Forwarding:

When LLF is enable, allow UTP link failures to be reported to the

fiber side and also allow Fiber link failure to be reported to the UTP

side. Therefore, A link loss forward feature is provided in both UTP

and Fiber side.

Pure Converter mode (Fast Ethernet Module):

When pure converter mode is enabling (on), it operates with the

minimum latency. The transmission flow does not wait until entire

frame is ready, but instead it forwards the received data immediately

after the data being received. And TP port should be forced at 100M

in this application. When DIP-Switch is in Switch Converter mode

(off), the converter function is same as Switch Hub.

Note:

Please don’t change the DIP-switch setting when UTP or fiber port is

transmitting or receiving data. It may cause some data error.
