Installing the IE-ModeConverter

The IE-ModeConverter installs anywhere as a standalone, table-top device or on a
DIN rail.

As a standalone device, install it in locations with limited space.

If multiple connections are required, use an IE-PowerTray/18 enclosure (sold
separately). The tray allows for 18 conversions in a 1.5 rack unit of space. The units
can also be powered by daisy-chaining DC power (refer to

Cascading DC Power

on

page 4).

SFP Port Requirements

The Industrial SFP/SFP requires two SFP Modules of the same speed, either two fast
Ethernet (100Mbps) modules or two Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) modules,
regardless of fibertype.

NOTE

Both SFPs must operate at the same rate..

DIN Rail Mounting

The IE-ModeConverter ships from the factory with DIN
clips, allowing installation on a DIN rail. It mounts
perpendicular to the DIN rail (as shown).

Use the supplied screws to attach the DIN clips to the IE-
ModeConverter, and then snap the converter to the DIN
rail.

To remove the converter from the DIN rail, use a flat-head
screwdriver in the slot to gently pry the converter from the
rail.

NOTE

The DIN clips are designed for use on a DIN-35 rail.
