In Remote Fault Detection (RFD), 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’s
core [Fig 1(c)].
2. Attach the UTP port to a 10BASE-T Ethernet device
using a Category 5 cable. If the attached device
features 10/100 or 10/100/1000 Auto-Negotiation,
disable this feature and manually set the UTP port
speed of the connected device to 10Mbps.

This document supports revision “xx/20” of the
iConverter 10FL/T. Please refer to the serial number
label on the ROM chip of the 10FL/T for the revision
number of your product. This revision incorporates the
following improvements to the 10FL/T.

3. Using a multimode or single-mode dual-fiber cable as
required per the converter type, attach the fiber port
to a 10BASE-FL mating Ethernet device. The transmit
(Tx) must attach to the receive side of the mating
device and the receive (Rx) must attach to the
transmit side.
REMOTE FAULT DETECT “R/FLT DET” DIP-SWITCH:
1. Link Propagate is the default link mode.
When the Remote Fault Detect DIP-Switch is in the
“R/Flt Det” position, the Remote Fault Detect mode is
enabled. When in the “Norm” (factory setting) position,
Remote Fault Detect is disabled and Link Propagate is
enabled.

OVERVIEW:
Fiber
The iConverter 10FL/T converters support the IEEE 802.3
Ethernet standard and convert 10BASE-T unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) to 10BASE-FL fiber optic cabling. Mod-
els are available for multimode (MM) and single-mode
(SM) dual fiber and single-mode single-fiber.
UTP
UTP
Fiber
4. Single-fiber (SF) converters must be used in matched
pairs. The transmit (Tx) and receive (Rx) wavelengths
of one converter must match the receive (Rx) and
transmit (Tx) wavelengths of the mating converter.
For example, an 8310-1 must be connected to an
8311-1.
iConverter 10FL/T Dual Fiber Modules
Note that connecting two converters when both are
set to RFD mode is illegal and will cause a “deadly
embrace” lockup.

The 10FL/T can be used in an unmanaged or managed
fashion. When unmanaged, the 10FL/T can be installed
in a chassis without a Network Management Module (NMM).
To be managed, a NMM module must be installed in the
same chassis.

In Link Propagate (LP), sometimes referred to as “Link
Loss Carry Forward”, a converter 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 1(b)]. Link propagate is the
factory default setting.

1. Using the chassis’ module guides for alignment,
insert the module into the selected slot and secure using
the front panel fastener screw.
LED status depends on connected device
Off if device is AN, On if device is Manual
For wide temperature (-40 to 60º C) modules, add a "W" to the
end of the model number. Consult factory for other configurations
and extended temperature(-40 to +75º C) modules.
When using single-fiber (SF) media converter models, the Tx
wavelength on one end has to match the Rx wavelength on the other.
