2.1 Preparing the Site
Consider the following when choosing a site for the Multichannel Media
Converter:
• Select a site that provides conditions that conform to the
environmental requirements listed in the appendix.
• Select a site that is dust-free and moisture-free.
• Do not block the ventilation openings on the Multichannel Media
Converter. The site should allow for proper heat dissipation from,
and adequate ventilation around, the Multichannel Media
Converter.
• Be sure that the site will allow easy access to twisted-pair cables,
fiber-optic cables, and power cord(s).
• Use dedicated power circuits or power stabilizers to supply
reliable power to the Multichannel Media Converter.
• Keep twisted-pair cabling away from sources of electrical noise,
such as radios, electric motors, transmitters, broadband
amplifiers, power lines, and flourescent fixtures.
Also:
• ALL NODES connected to the ports on the media converter must
operate at the same speed: 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s, according to
Multichannel Media Converter model selected.
• The nodes connected to EACH CHANNEL on the Multichannel
Media Converter must operate in the same duplex mode, either
half-duplex or full-duplex. Do NOT, for instance, connect a node
operating at half-duplex to a twisted-pair port and then connect
another node operating at full-duplex to the fiber-optic port of the
same channel.
