Installation  
The module comes equipped with a bank of DIP switches and jumpers  
for setting configuration.  
The default dip switch settings (all switches in the UP position) and  
default jumper settings will work for most installations.  
The following steps are used to configure the Perle 10/100 Ethernet  
Media Converter Module:  
1. Set the Auto-MDIX jumper (optional).  
2. Set the Auto-Config jumper (CM-110 only) (optional)  
3. Set the DIP switch settings (optional).  
4. Insert the Media Converter Module into the Chassis.  
5. Connect the fiber cable.  
6. Connect the copper cable.  
Auto-MDIX Jumper  
Note: The factory settings for Auto-MDIX will work for most  
installations, but if there is a need to modify the settings, follow the  
procedure below.  
The AUTO-MDIX jumper (J5) is located on the upper edge, at the  
midpoint of the module (see diagram below for labelling).. By covering  
or strapping pins 2 and 3(AUTO), the C-110 and CM-110 will  
automatically detect the Ethernet cable’s polarity and configure itself  
as either an MDI or an MDIX device. By covering or strapping pins 1  
and 2(MDIX), the C-110 and CM-110 will operate as an MDIX device  
Removing the strapping is the same as AUTO.  
NOTE: The default jumper setting is AUTO

Auto-Config Jumper (CM-110 only)  
The Auto-Config jumper (J6) is located just below the Auto-MDIX  
jumper (see above). Refer to the diagram below for labelling. This  
jumper only applies to CM-110 modules.  
Strapping pins 1 and 2 of the jumper will set the module in SW mode  
and strapping pins 2 and 3 will set it in Auto Config mode.  
Auto: When set to Auto the module will, at power-up, check its  
internal flash memory to see if configuration information has been  
downloaded to it from a management module. If so it will use this as  
its running configuration. If there is no configuration in flash it will read  
the settings of the DIP switches and use those as its running  
configuration.  
SW: When set to SW (Switch), the module will, at power-up, read the  
settings of the DIP Switches and use those as its running  
configuration. It will ignore any configuration information in its flash  
memory.  
NOTE: The default jumper setting is Auto

Up (default)  
Down  
Auto  
Off  
Note: Auto negotiation should only be turned off, if the copper link  
partner does not support Auto Negotiation or fixed settings are  
required by the copper link partner.  
Auto: In this mode of operation the Media Converter Module will  
negotiate Ethernet parameters on the copper connection. This will  
ensure that the most optimal connection parameters will be used. If  
the copper link partner does not support Auto negotiation, the Media  
Converter Module will parallel detect to 10 or 100 Mbps and force  
Half Duplex mode as per IEEE specifications.  
Off: When the Auto Negotiation switch is set to the OFF position, the  
Media Converter Module will not negotiate the Ethernet parameters  
with the copper link partner. The parameters used by the Media  
Perle 10/100 Media Converter Module – Installation Guide

Converter Module will be determined by the Duplex (switch 4) and  
Speed (switch 5) dip switch settings.  
Link Mode (Switch 2)  
Switch Position Mode  
Up (default)  
Down  
Link Pass-Through Mode  
Standard Mode  
Link Pass-Through: In this mode, the link state on one connection is  
directly reflected through the Media Converter Module to the other  
connection. If the link is lost on one of the connections, then the other  
link will be brought down.  
With Media Converters on both ends of the fiber link and both setup  
for Link Pass-Through, a loss of copper link on the far end device will  
propagate through both Converters and will result in a loss of copper  
link at the near end device. This would, in effect, resemble a direct  
copper connection  
Standard Mode: In this mode, the links on the fiber and copper sides  
can be brought up and down independently of each other. A loss of  
link on either the fiber or copper port can occur without affecting the  
other connection.  
Far End Fault (Switch 3)  
Switch Position Mode  
Up (default)  
Down  
Enabled  
Disabled  
Enabled: If the Media Converter Module detects a loss of receive  
fiber signal, it will transmit a FEF signal to the remote Media  
Converter. This, in effect, notifies the fiber link partner that an error  
condition exists on the fiber connection.  
If the remote Media Converter is set up for Far End Fault (FEF) and  
the local Media Converter is set up with Link Pass-Through, a loss of  
Perle 10/100 Media Converter Module – Installation Guide

fiber link on either the transmit or receive line will be passed through  
to the local copper connection thus notifying the connected device.  
If the Media Converter has been set to Link Pass-Through mode, the  
effect will be the same as FEF, since the link loss on the fiber receiver  
will result in bringing down the copper link, which will in turn cause the  
transmit fiber link to be brought down.  
Note: If it is required to either generate or detect the FEF signal, then  
the FEF switch needs to be set.  
Disabled: The Media Converter Module will not monitor for or  
generate Far End Fault.  
The following diagram is an illustration of the operation of this feature.  
(A) – Remote Media Converter setup for Far End Fault Enabled, Auto  
Negotiation – OFF and Link Mode – Standard.  
(B) – Local Media Converter setup for Far End Fault - Enabled, Link  
Pass-Through - On and Auto Negotiation - OFF  
1 – (A) Loses fiber connection on its receiver.  
2 – (A) Sends FEF.  
3 – (B) Detects FEF signal and shuts down the fiber link.  
4 – (B) Drops link on copper connection because Link Pass-Through  
is configured.  
5 – (A) Link on copper connection is not affected because Link Mode  
is set to Standard.

fiber connection is looped back to the transmit (TX) fiber connection.  
The state of the copper link is not relevant since no data is passed  
through to the copper side. This mode will override all other switch  
settings.

Other Features  
Auto-MDIX:  
Auto-MDIX (automatic medium-dependant interface crossover)  
detects the signalling on the 10/100BASE-T interface to determine  
the type of cable connected (straight-through or crossover) and  
automatically configures the connection.  
Error Recovery:  
In certain configurations, and under specific conditions where the  
Media Converter Module brings down a link to convey status, there is  
potential for a deadlock. Recovery is achieved by momentarily  
restoring the link to see if the original failure has been resolved. If it  
has not, the link will be forced down again, however if the original  
problem has been resolved, the link will be restored.  
Pause (IEEE 802.3xy):  
Integrated Pause signalling is an IEEE feature that temporarily  
suspends data transmission between two devices in the event that  
one of the devices becomes overwhelmed. The Perle Media  
Converter Module can generate and respond to Pause messages.

Troubleshooting  
General  
Ensure that the Media Converter Module is securely seated in the  
chassis. The PWR LED should be on.  
Ensure both devices on either end of the fiber are compatible. If  
using a simplex fiber connection, ensure that you have both an  
Upstream (U) and Downstream (D) Media Converter.  
Ensure all cabling is of the correct type and is in good working  
order.  
For duplex fiber connections, ensure the RX and TX has been  
reversed between the two Media Converters.  
No connectivity  
If unable to get full connectivity with all DIP switches in the UP  
position, these methods are recommended for troubleshooting.  
Method 1  
1. If the Module is a CM-110, set the Auto-Config jumper (J6) to  
SW so that DIP switches are being read.  
2. Set the Link mode to Standard (SW2 – Down) on both Media  
Converters. Leave all other switches in the Up position.  
3. Connect the near end device to the copper connection. The LKC  
LED indicates good copper connection. If the LKC LED is not lit,  
then check the copper cable and the attached device. Repeat for  
the far end Media Converter.  
4. Connect the fiber cable to both Converters. The LKF LED  
indicates good fiber connection. If no LKF LED then check the  
fiber cabling.  
5. Return converters to desired configuration.  
Perle 10/100 Media Converter Module – Installation Guide  
15  
 
Method 2:  
The fiber connection can also be verified by configuring the remote  
Media Converter for loopback mode. The LKF LEDs on both  
Media Converters should be lit. Data should pass through the local  
converter, over the fiber connection to the remote Media  
Converter. At the remote Media Converter, the data will be looped  
back and passed through the fiber, once again, to pass through  
the local converter to the copper link.  
Note: If troubleshooting a CM-110, setting the Auto-Config jumper  
(J6) to SW will ensure the DIP switches are being read.
