Planning the Installation
Be sure to observe the following guidelines when planning the installation
of your media converter.
ˆ The end-node connected to the fiber port must be compatible with the
SFP or GBIC transceiver.
ˆ The 1000Base-T twisted pair port is set to a fixed 1000 Mbps speed
and can operate in full-duplex only with Auto-Negotiation. For cabling
specifications, refer to Table 2 on page 18.
ˆ The end-node connected to the media converter can be any other
ethernet network device, such as an adapter card, repeater, router,
hub, switch, or another media converter.
ˆ The twisted pair cabling must be kept away from sources of electrical
noise, such as radios, transmitters, power lines, broadband
amplifiers, electrical motor, and fluorescent fixtures.
