2. Plug the AC/DC adapter to a power outlet. Refer to “Technical
Specifications” on page 31 for power requirements.

4. Remove the dust cover from the fiber optic connector and connect the
cable to the fiber optic port. Verify that the media converter’s
transmitter port (TX) is connected to the end-node’s receiver port

to the end-node’s transmitter port (TX).
