CAUTION: Slots in the PointSystem™ chassis without a slide-in-module
installed MUST have a protective plate covering the empty slot for Class A
compliance.
1. Locate or build 1000Base-T compliant copper cables with male, RJ-45
connectors installed at both ends.
2. Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on
the CGETF10xx-10x media converter.
To install the CGETF10xx-10x media converter slide-in-module:
1. Locate an empty installation slot on the PointSystem™ chassis.
3. Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45
port on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).
2. Carefully slide the slide-in-module into the installation slot, aligning the
module with the installation guides.
3. Ensure that the slide-in-module is firmly seated inside the chassis.
4. Push in and rotate the panel fastener screw (attached to the slide-in-
module) clockwise to secure the slide-in-module to the chassis front.

Operation - Continued
Operation
Link Pass-Through
Pause
The Link Pass-Through feature allows the media converter to monitor both the
fiber and copper RX (receive) ports for loss of signal. In the event of a loss of
an RX signal (1), the media converter will automatically disable the TX
(transmit) signal (2), thus, “passing through” the link loss (3). The far-end
device is automatically notified of the link loss (4), which prevents the loss of
valuable data unknowingly transmitted over an invalid link.
The pause feature can improve network performance by allowing one end of
the link to signal the other to discontinue frame transmission for a set period
of time to relieve buffer congestion.
In Hardware mode, the pause feature can be set to
•
•
Disable (i.e., no pause)
Enable (i.e., symmetrical pause)
In Software mode, the pause feature can be set to one of four settings:

Full-Duplex network
SNMP
In a full-duplex network, maximum cable lengths are determined by the type
of cables that are used. See pages 1 and 2 for the cable specifications for the
different CGETF10xx-10x models.
Use SNMP at an attached terminal or at a remote location to monitor the
media converter by monitoring:
•
•
•
Copper and fiber link/receive status
Hardware switch settings
Receive error count
The 512-Bit Rule does not apply in a full-duplex network.
Half-Duplex network (512-Bit Rule)
Also, use SNMP to enter network commands that:
In a half-duplex network, the maximum cable lengths are determined by the
round trip delay limitations of each Fast Ethernet collision domain. (A
collision domain is the longest path between any two terminal devices, e.g. a
terminal, switch or router.)

Enable/disable Auto-Negotiation
Symmetric pause

The 512-Bit Rule determines the maximum length of cable permitted by
calculating the round-trip delay in bit-times (BT) of a particular collision
domain. If the result is less than or equal to 512 BT, the path is good.
See the on-line documentation that comes with Transition Networks
FocalPoint™ software for applicable commands and usage.
For more information on the 512-Bit Rule, see the white paper titled

FCC regulations
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial
environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if
not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is
likely to cause harmful interference, in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at the user's own expense.
Canadian regulations
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise for digital apparatus
set out on the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.
