Troubleshooting

General Troubleshooting

During installation, first test the fiber and BNC

connections with all troubleshooting features disabled;
then enable these features, if desired, just before final
installation. This will reduce the features’
interference with testing.

When working with units where the features cannot be

disabled, you must establish BOTH your BNC and fiber
connections; the NO LNK LEDs should not be lit (i.e. NO
LNK LED not lit = good connection, NO LNK LED lit =
problem).

To test a media converter by itself, first make sure you

have an appropriate fiber patch cable, then follow these
steps to test:

1.

Connect the media converter to the BNC device with a

coax cable.

2.

Loop a single strand of fiber from the transmit port

to the receive port of your media converter.

3.

Verify that you have a valid connection for both the

BNC and fiber ports on your media converter.

If there is trouble with link connectivity, make sure the

connection is made using 75W Coax cable.
