Testing the Installation

This procedure explains how to test the media converter by performing a link
test. A link test will determine whether each port on the media converter is
successfully receiving a signal from the node connected to it. You should
perform this test immediately after you have installed the media converter or
whenever you are experiencing a problem with the unit. To perform a link test,
perform these steps:

1.

Verify that the Power LED on the media converter is green. If the LED is
OFF, check the following:

— If installed as a standalone unit, check to be sure that the adapter cable

is securely connected to the back of the media converter and that the
power adapter is securely connected to a power outlet.

— If installed in an AT-MCR12 chassis, check that the unit is fully seated

in the slot.

— Verify that the power outlet has power by connecting another device to

it.

— Try using another power adapter.

2.

Turn ON the nodes (such as the hubs or switches) that are connected to
the ports on the media converter.

3.

Set the Link Test/MissingLink button on the media converter to the LNK
TST (OUT) position.
