Chapter 1 Introduction  
Thank you for choosing the MC100CM/MC110CS Fast Ethernet  
Media Converters or the MC111CS/MC112CS WDM Fast Ethernet  
Media Converters  
!
1.1 Overview of the Converter  
MC100CM and MC110CS are Fast Ethernet Media Converters.  
MC111CS and MC112CS are WDM Fast Ethernet Media Converters,  
which adopt WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) technology  
that increases the information carrying capacity of fiber via multiplex  
transmit and receive signals at different wavelengths on single strand  
cable. You can save half cabling cost when you use MC111CS and  
MC112CS instead of your original dual fiber converter.  
The converter mediates between a 10/100Base-TX segment and a  
100Base-FX segment. It is primarily designed for large, higher  
speed/bandwidth demanding workgroups that require expansion of  
the Fast Ethernet network.  
The converter also features the LFP (Link Fault Pass through)  
function, and for its procedure illustrates, please refer to the section 1.5.3.  
Note:  
This media converter can also be powered by 5VDC adapter.

lots of situations.  
2) You have to reset the converter after configuring the switches.  
1.5.3 Link Fault Pass Through Function  
In common situations, when one side of the link fails, the other side  
continues transmitting packets, and waiting for a response that never  
arrives from the disconnected side.

With the Link Fault Pass Through function enabled (optional with  
switch LFP), TP port and FX port of the same converter will inform  
each other the fault link status so that when one side of the link fails,  
the other side will force the link to shut down as soon as noticed. The  
procedure will be illustrated as shown below.  
If link fail happens on TP port (A), the FX port (A) sends non-idle  
pattern to notice the FX port (B). The FX port (B) then forces its TP  
port (B) to link failed after receiving the non-idle pattern. Link status  
LED will also be off for both Converters and Devices as shown below.

2.1 Fast Ethernet Media Converter  
1. The SC fiber connector of MC100CM transmits/receives data by  
1310nm short wave laser on multi-mode fiber.  
2. The SC fiber connector of MC110CS transmits/receives data by  
1310nm short wave laser on single-mode fiber.  
Transmits and receives data on different fibers  
Note:  
You have to use either two MC100CM connectors or two MC110CS  
connectors to cooperate.  
2.2 WDM Fast Ethernet Media Converter  
1. The SC fiber connector of MC111CS transmits data by 1550nm  
short wave laser while receives data by 1310nm short wave laser  
on one single-mode fiber.  
2. The SC fiber connector of MC112CS transmits data by 1310nm  
short wave laser while receives data by 1550nm short wave laser  
on one single-mode fiber.

Chapter 3 Configuration  
In order to achieve the aim of effectively expanding a Fast Ethernet  
network, you can use the converter like the following examples:  
1. Place two converters back to back between the following end  
devices.  
Note:  
You should use two MC100CM Media Converters or two MC110CS  
Media Converters, or one MC111CS and one MC112CS to expand  
your network. Error will occur when you use other ways.  
2. Another effective application is to place one converter directly  
between a 10/100Base-TX network and a 100Base-FX device.

3.1 Installation Procedure  
Use a fiber cable to connect two converters, or connect a converter  
with a 100Base-FX Device.  
1. Connection of a Converter and a 10/100Base-TX Device (HUB or  
Switch).  
Make sure that the length of the Cat.5 twisted pair cable  
between the 10/100Base-TX device and the converter is less  
than 100 meters.  
Connect one end of the Cat.5 twisted pair cable to the RJ45  
jack on the converter and the other end of the cable to the  
RJ45 jack on the 10/100Base-TX device.  
2. Connection of two Converters or a Converter and a 100Base-FX  
Device.  
Use a SC fiber cable to connect the two Converters’ SC  
connector or the SC connecter of a Converter and a  
100Base-FX Device.  
3. Turn on the power.
