Chapter 1 Introduction The PLANET FT-807 is a 10/100Base-TX shielded twisted pair (STP) to Fast Ethernet 100Base-FX fiber converter. It supports full-duplex operations at its fiber-optic interface in the form factor of SMI (Small Multimedia Interface) interface. The converter auto-adapts to the highest level of performance supported by the device connected to the STP port. 1.1 Product Description The SMI (small multimedia interface) is one kind of POF (plastic optic fiber) interface that can suitable for low-cost and high-speed data transmission. The SMI patch cord meets the IEEE 1394b specification that can transmit data at S200 (250Mbps) speed for 50 meters, the distance range of TP port is 100 meters. It will make the new generation multimedia life more possible and easy installation. 1.2 Packet Contents Your FT-807 carton should contain following items: The Fast Ethernet Media Converter. AC to DC Power Adapter (Output: 5V DC, 2A max). This User’s Manual. If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller from whom you purchased your Fast Ethernet Converter. 1.3 Technical Specification Standard IEEE 802.3u, 10/100Base-TX and 100Base-FX TP Connector RJ-45 port (Auto-MDI/MDI-X) Twisted Pair, EIA568 Fiber Connector SMI POF port (multi-mode), 650nm wavelength Data Rate 10/100Mbps (TP) ; Auto-Negotiation for duplex mode 100Mbps (FX) ; full-duplex mode TP Cable 4 pair Cat. 3 or 5 UTP, up to 100m Fiber Cable IEEE 1394b SMI Patch cord (0.98mm /1mm), up to 50m LED indicators PWR, TP. POF Dimensions 86 x 62 x 23 mm (W x D x H) Power Requirement 5V DC, 2A
1.4 Product Outlook LED Definition POF: Lights to indicate the SMI connection is established. TP: Lights to indicate the TP connection is established. PWR: Lights to indicate the converter is powered. 1.5 Duplex Mode Setting The TP port of FT-807 supports duplex mode detection by auto-negotiation (A-N). The following is the duplex mode parameters: Fast Ethernet Device FT-807 Duplex Mode Support Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Hub Half-Duplex Ethernet / Fast Ethernet Switch (without A-N) Half-Duplex Fast Ethernet Devices * Support Auto-Negotiation Full-Duplex/Half Duplex
Note: Normally, an A-N switch will detect and set to full-duplex, where a dual-speed hub will detects half. The fiber port (POF) port of FT-807 is fixed at 100Mbps full-duplex mode. The link partner should also set at 100Mbps full-duplex mode at the same time. 1.6 Power information The power jack of FT-807 is with 2.5mm in the central post and required +5VDC power input. Should you have the issue to make the power connection, please contact with your local sales representative.
Chapter 2 Installation Please follow these steps to install the converter: Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to which the FT-807 will be attached. Ensure that there is no activity in the network. Attach POF fiber cable with SMI type connector from the FT-807 to the fiber network also using POF. Attach a Cat. 5 UTP cable from the 10/100Base-TX network to the RJ-45 port on the FT-807. Connect the 5VDC power adapter to the FT-807 and verify that the Power LED lights up. Turn on the power of the device/station, the TP and POF LED should light when all cables are attached. Note: 1. RJ-45/STP, UTP Cat 5, straight/crossover cable is accepted. 2. Please note the FT-807 supports LFP function, both ends should well connected. Otherwise, both TP and fiber port will remains off if any of the port is not connected 3. Consult for your network administrator for more information about POF network equipments. Usually, another FT-807 is required for pair installation and transmission. Warning: As an optical equipment, to reduce the risk of injury to the eyes, do not look directly into the laser light on the POF interface and do not point the laser light into anyone's eyes in short distance.
Appendix A: RJ-45 pin assignment and cable system A.1 10/100Mbps, 10/100Base-TX When connecting 10/100Mbps TP port to other devices, a straight or crossover cable is necessary. The TP port of FT-807 supports auto-MDI detection. That means you can directly connect the TP port to any Ethernet devices without making a crossover cable. The following table and diagram show the standard RJ-45 receptacle/ connector and their pin assignments: RJ-45 Connector pin assignment Contact MDI Media Dependant Interface MDI-X Media Dependant Interface -Cross 1 Tx + (transmit) Rx + (receive) 2 Tx - (transmit) Rx - (receive) 3 Rx + (receive) Tx + (transmit) 4, 5 Not used 6 Rx - (receive) Tx - (transmit) 7, 8 Not used The standard cable, RJ-45 pin assignment The standard RJ-45 receptacle/connector There are 8 wires on a standard UTP/STP cable and each wire is color-coded. The following shows the pin allocation and color of straight cable and crossover cable connection:
Figure A-1: Straight-Through and Crossover Cable Please make sure your connected cable is with same pin assignment and color as above picture before deploying the cables into your network. A.2 100Mbps, 100Base-FX, SMI type connector FT-807 is using POF SMI type connector that is mostly being used for IEEE1394b transmission. The followings show the basic information. The POF Cable should be a dual wire cable with 0.98mm optic core with cladding diameter 1mm. Also with jacket in diameter: 2.2 mm. The SMI connector will as like the figure left. You can check with your network device dealer or administrator for the availability of the cable and connector. Part No. 2010-AA3330-001
