Planning the Installation
Refer to the following guidelines when planning the installation of the media
converter:
❑
All nodes connected to the ports on the media converter must operate
at 100 Mbps.
❑
The nodes connected to a same channel on the media converter must
operate with the same duplex mode, either half-duplex or full-duplex.
For instance, you cannot connect a node operating at half-duplex to a
twisted pair port and another node operating at full-duplex to the fiber
optic port of the same channel on the media converter.
