Introduction
EL100 / EL200 Media Converter
10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-FX Media Converter
10/100BASE-TX to 100BASE-BX WDM Media Converter
The EL100 / EL200 Series provide media conversion between 10/100BASE-T(X) and 100BASE-FX
Fiber. Easy plug-and-play design facilitates network infrastructure construction. Through DIP switch
selection, Link-Fault-Pass-Through (LFPT) function can be activated or disabled.
The EL100 series is designed for SC or ST fiber connection applications, while the EL200 series is
designed for WDM fiber connection. These commercial grade media converters support the EtherWAN
EMC1600 chassis system for easy group installation.

Unpacking
Open the carton and unpack the items. Your package should include an EL100 or EL200 media
converter, and this Quick Install Guide. If items are missing or damaged, notify your EtherWAN
representative.
Select Installation Location
Place the equipment where it will not be subjected to extreme temperatures, humidity, or
electromagnetic interference. Specifically, the site you select should meet the following requirements:
The ambient temperature should be between 32 and 113 degrees Fahrenheit (0 to 45 degrees
Celsius).
The relative humidity should be less than 95 percent, non-condensing.
Surrounding electrical devices should not exceed the electromagnetic field (RFC) standards for
IEC 801-3, Level 2 (3V/M) field strength.
Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the ventilation holes
on each side of the equipment.
The power outlet should be within 1.8 meters of the product.

EL100/200 Media Converter
Chassis Installation
The converter can be installed into any of the expansion slots in a compatible chassis.
Install the converter onto a carrier supplied with the chassis.
Unscrew the carrier from the desired expansion slot on the chassis.
Fit the converter onto the carrier, and insert the carrier to the guide rails of the expansion slot.
Tighten the retaining screws to fix the carrier in the chassis.
NOTE: Never insert any converter into the chassis directly without using the supplied carriers.
The carriers allow secure and consistent placement of the converters into the chassis’ backplane
without causing any damage.

EL100/200 Media Converter
Connect Power
This Converter is a plug-and-play device. Connect the supplied AC to DC power adaptor to the
receptacle on the rear panel of the converter, and then attach the plug into a standard AC outlet.
If installing into a chassis, then no additional power connection is required.
Ports and Port Settings
The EL100 provides one TX port and one FX/BX port. For the FX/BX port, it provides options of:
Multi-mode fiber using SC, ST, VF-45, MT-RJ or LC connector or Single-mode fiber using SC or ST
connector.
The TX port uses RJ-45 connector and auto senses the speed of 10/100Mbps.
The EL200 provides a WDM-A/B fiber port.
Port settings are made by means of a DIP (Dual Inline Package) switch at the rear panel of the
module.

Converter mode
The default settings for all six dip switches are “Down”.
Disconnect the converter from the power source before changing any of the DIP switch settings.
NOTE: In order for converter mode to work, both TX and FX must be set to the same speed.
Otherwise, the device will automatically switch to store-and-forward mode.
Link Fault Pass Through (LFPT)
LFPT (Link Fault Pass Through) is a feature that will pass a link fault through the device at each
segment. If either of the copper TX links fail, the media converter will pass the fail state on throughout
the link, taking down the middle fiber as well as the copper link on the opposite end. This prevents the
connected switches from sending packets that would end up lost. LFTP is designed for use with media
converters arranged in pairs, and both devices must support LFPT.
CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT
Each laser product complies with US FDA regulations of 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11 or complies
with those regulations except for deviations pursuant to Laser Notice No. 56 dated May 8, 2019.
