OVERVIEW:  
PORT STRUCTURE:

Fiber  
The iConverter 10/100VT provides 100BASE-FX fiber to  
10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX UTP conversion, as well as  
rate conversion between 10BASE-T and 100BASE-TX.  
Models are available for multimode (MM) and single-mode  
(SM) dual fiber, and single-mode single-fiber (SF).  
Using a 4-port switch design, the 10/100VT features one  
front-plane 100Mbps fiber port, one front-plane  
10/100Mbps UTP port and two 10/100Mbps Ethernet  
Backplane ports (“A” and “B”). The Backplane ports can  
connect to adjacent modules within the same chassis.

This example shows how the 10/100VT can be used as a  
managed or unmanaged media converter to create flexible  
and effective network switch configurations.  
Note that converters in SFD mode must be deployed  
in pairs.

DIP-SWITCH SETTINGS:  
Front Panel DIP-Switch Settings:  
To find out about individual chassis “A” and “B”  
backplane links, refer to the specific chassis’ user  
manual.  
The 10/100VT supports Half-Duplex and Full-Duplex  
modes and features an automatic crossover mode for  
easy attachment to hubs, switches and workstations.  
When the 10/100VT “A” and “B” Backplane ports are enabled  
(using the board-mounted “A EN” and “B EN” DIP-Switches),  
they connect via the chassis’ backplane to the slots on  
the left and right sides of the 10/100VT module. When  
another switch-based module with Backplane port  
connections such as a second 10/100VT or an NMM is  
installed in an adjacent slot, it can be connected via the  
backplane to the 10/100VT to facilitate a multi-module  
configuration.  
(b)  
Port 2 (P2)  
LINK MODES:  
In order to accommodate different user needs, the  
10/100VT supports several different linking modes.  
The 10/100VT can be used as a standard two-port UTP to  
fiber converter. It can also use its two additional  
10/100 backplane ports to connect to adjacent modules  
and accommodate flexible network configurations like  
in-band management and multi-module configurations.  
The iConverter 19-Module, 5-Module and 2-Module Chassis  
have backplanes that facilitate connectivity between  
adjacent modules.

Fiber Full/Half-Duplex “FDX/HDX” DIP-Switch:  
Setting this DIP-Switch to Full-Duplex “FDX” facilitates  
connecting to a switch or a workstation that supports Full-  
Duplex operation. Setting this DIP-Switch to Half-Duplex  
“HDX” facilitates connecting to a hub (with a shared/non-  
switched fiber port) or a workstation that supports only  
Half-Duplex.  
iConverter 10/100VT Dual Fiber Modules  
In “Link Segment” (LS), sometimes referred to as the  
“Normal” mode, a port transmits a “Link” signal  
independently of any received “Link” at any other port.  
For example, the UTP transmits a “Link” regardless of the  
fiber receiving a “Link” [Fig. 2(a) & (b)].

The 10/100VT can be used in an unmanaged or managed  
fashion. When unmanaged, it can be installed in an  
iConverter chassis without a Network Management Module  
(NMM). To be managed, an NMM module or an iConverter  
module with integrated management, such as the 10/100M,  
must be installed in the same chassis as the 10/100VT.  
In “Link Propagate” (LP), sometimes referred to as “Link  
Loss Carry Forward”, a port transmits a “Link” signal only  
when receiving a “Link” at its other port. For example, the  
UTP transmits a “Link” only when receiving a “Link” at the  
fiber port [Fig. 2(c)].

Setting this DIP-Switch to UTP Auto-Negotiate “AN”  
(factory setting) enables the UTP port to determine the  
speed and duplex mode automatically. If the connected  
device cannot provide the proper signal to indicate its  
own mode of operation, the UTP Manual “Man” DIP-Switch  
setting should be used. This feature allows connections  
with devices that do not auto-negotiate properly.

In “Remote Fault Detection” (RFD), the fiber port transmits  
a “Link” signal only when receiving a “Link” at the fiber

core [Fig. 2(d)].

The 10/100VT features Port VLAN and Tag VLAN, which  
allow complete control of traffic flow between the fiber  
port, UTP port, and the chassis Backplane Ethernet ports  
on a module. Other advanced features include Port  
Access Control, which facilitates enabling and disabling  
of individual ports, individual Port Bandwidth Control and  
reporting of MIB statistics.

In “Remote Fault Detection + Link Propagate” (RFD+LP),  
the UTP port transmits a “Link” signal only when receiving  
a “Link” at the fiber port. The fiber port transmits a “Link”  
only when receiving “Link” signals both at the fiber port  
and the UTP port. As a result, fiber faults (no “Link”  
received at the fiber) are looped-back and can be reported  
to the network core [Fig. 2(e)].  
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-Switch (described above) is  
in the “Man” position, the UTP 10/100 DIP-Switch  
determines the speed of operation for the UTP port.

Setting the UTP 10/100 DIP-Switch to UTP 100Mbps “100”  
(factory setting) forces the UTP port to operate at  
100Mbps. Setting this DIP-Switch to UTP 10Mbps “10”  
forces the UTP port to operate at 10Mbps. Adjust the UTP  
10/100 DIP-Switch to match the speed of the  
connecting device.  
Fig. 1 depicts a chassis with three modules plugged into  
three of its adjacent backplane slots. The adjacent slots  
are connected via the backplane using the “A” and “B”  
10/100 links. In this example, the 10/100VT in the center  
slot connects to the slot on its left using the ”A” link and  
to the slot on its right using the “B” link.

For wide temperature (-40 to 60º C), add a "W" to the end of the  
model number. Consult factory for extended temperature  
(-40 to +75º C) models.  
When using single-fiber (SF) media converter models, the Tx  
wavelength on one end has to match the Rx wavelength on the other.  
When the UTP “AN/Man” DIP-Switch is in the Auto  
Negotiate “AN” position, and the UTP 10/100 DIP-Switch  
is in the “100” position, the UTP port auto-negotiates to  
100Mbps or 10Mbps. When in the “10” position, the UTP  
port only operates at 10Mbps.  
In this example, the module on the left is a Network  
Management Module (NMM) and it connects via its “A”  
Backplane port to the 10/100VT facilitating in-band  
management (via the fiber uplink). The module on the right
