Installation Guide
LEDs
The PWR LED in the upper right corner of the front panel lights when the
media converter is receiving power. Status LEDs are located on the front
panel next to each port and described in Table 1.
Table 1 LEDs
MDI/MDI-X Switch
The MDI/MDI-X (Media Dependent Interface/Media Dependent Interface with
Crossover) switch, located on the front panel, is a straight-through or
crossover cable selection switch. It enables the RJ45 port to be connected to a
repeater or DTE device without using a special crossover cable. The default
position of the switch is MDI-X, which means you can connect the RJ45 port to
a workstation or to any other DTE device using a straight-through cable.
Note
Using the Link Test mode does not interfere with the media converter’s
ability to pass network traffic.
3
Auto-Negotiation
The 100Base-TX ports participate in IEEE 802.3u Standard auto-negotiation
with its local link partner.
Note
End stations used with the media converter must operate in the same
duplex mode (either both full-duplex or both half-duplex).
Note
The media converters have an additional feature, allowing the unit to
operate in 100 Mbps half-duplex mode. Certain applications require this
mode, for example, two media converters installed in a back-to-back
configuration (fiber-to-fiber) which are attached to unmanaged repeaters
and/or switches that auto-negotiates with the other. Forinstructions on
how to set up the media converter for this application, contact Allied
Telesyn Technical Support.
MissingLink
MissingLink gives the host (router, server, switch) attached to each end of the
converter critical information about the status of the other (remote) segment
link. If either link fails, the converter interacts with both hosts, making each
instantly aware of the link fault. Either host can then execute
preprogrammed, redundant transmission path selection.

Standalone Installation
1. Remove all equipment from the package and store the packaging in a safe
place
2. Attach the four rubber feet to the base of the unit, placing one rubber foot
in each corner. For rack-mount installation, do not attach the four rubber
feet.
3. Plug the AC-DC power adapter into an appropriate AC power outlet and
insert the power plug into the DC receptacle located on the rear panel.
12 V D C

4. Verify that the PWR LED lights green.
5. Set the unit in Link Test mode
6. Remove the dust cap from the fiber optic connectors.
7. Plug the appropriate fiber cable into the connector. See Table 3 for IEEE
802.3u cabling specifications
8. Connect the other end of the fiber cable to the desired end station. Verify
that the link LED is ON.
9. If you are making a direct connection to a workstation using straight-
through cable, set the MDI/MDI-X switch to the MDI-X position. (MDI-X is
the default position.)
If you are connecting the media converter to a hub, switch, or another
media converter with a straight-through cable, set the MDI/MDI-X switch
to the MDI position. See Figure 7.

10. Plug a Category 5 twisted pair cable into the RJ45 connector. Connect the
other end of the twisted pair cable to the desired end station. Verify that
the Link LED is ON
11. Set the unit to Normal (NML) Mode for normal operation.
Note
End stations used with the media converter must operate in the same
duplex mode (either both full-duplex or both half-duplex).

Installation Guide
Note
The media converters have an additional feature, allowing the unit to
operate in 100 Mbps half-duplex mode. Certain applications require this
mode, for example, two media converters installed in a back-to-back
configuration (fiber-to-fiber) which are attached to unmanaged repeaters
and/or switches that auto-negotiates with the other. Forinstructions on
how to set up the media converter for this application, contact Allied
Telesyn Technical Support.
Back-to-Back Installation
Review the following before doing a back-to-back installation. See Figure 10
for an illustration of a back-to-back-media converter configuration.
❑ During installation, setup, and testing of back-to-back media
converters, make sure each media converter is in the Link Test mode.
❑ When two media converters are connected back-to-back with no UTP/
STP cables connected and when the NML/LNK TST switch is in the
OUT position (Link Test mode), the fiber REC LEDs on each converter
may flash. This is normal and will not affect the normal operation of
the converters.
❑ When operating two media converters in a back-to-back configuration,
Allied Telesyn recommends that the MissingLink feature on one or
both of the converters be disabled. The MissingLink feature can be
disabled by placing the NML/LNK TST switch in the OUT position
(LNK TST mode). Disabling the Link Test mode does not interfere
with the converter’s ability to pass network traffic.

Installation Guide
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot your media converter, perform the following:
1. Set the unit in the Link Test mode.
2. End stations used with the media converter must operate in the same
duplex mode (either both full-duplex or both half-duplex).
3. Verify that the twisted pair cable is Category 5.
4. Verify that proper fiber cable is being used: multimode for the
AT-MC101XL and AT-MC102XL, and single mode for the AT-MC103XL
and AT-MC103LH. Refer to Table 3 on page 10 for cable specifications
5. Verify that the near end node transmitter (TX) is connected to the far end
node receiver (RX) and vice versa on the fiber segment.
