Introduction
EL8000 Hardened Media Converter
1000Base-TX to 1000Base-SX / LX / BX
1000Base-TX to 1000 SFP
The EL8000 Series provides media conversion between 1000BASE-TX and 1000BASE -
SX/LX/BX/SFP Fiber. Built specifically for mission critical applications in harsh environments, the
EL8000’s hardened design features high shock & vibration resistance, electrical noise immunity, wide
operating temperature range from -40 to 75°C, and aluminum housing. With two power inputs, link
down alarming, Link-Fault-Pass-Through and a wide range of fiber connectivity options, the EL8000 is
the ideal media converter for environments where connectivity is crucial.

Unpacking
Open the carton and unpack the items. Your package should include an EL8000 media converter and
this Quick Install Guide. If items are missing or damaged, notify your EtherWAN representative.
Select Installation Location
Installation is DIN rail-mount, or wall mount (in an enclosure or industrial panel). Ensure that the power
source is within 6 feet (1.8 meters), and check that there is adequate airflow.
Place the media converter on the DIN rail from above using the slot. Push the front of the media
converter toward the mounting surface until it audibly snaps into place.
Startup: Connect the supply voltage to start up the media converter via the terminal block.
Dismantling: Pull out the lower edge and then remove the media converter from the DIN rail.

EL8000 Hardened Media Converter
Connect Power
The media converter is equipped with an eight-contact terminal block. The terminal block provides dual
DC power inputs, and a relay output contact. Redundant power supply is supported, but onlyone power
input is required for operation. Note that the media converter does not have a power switch; it is turned
on/off by connecting/disconnecting power.
Input voltage is 12 to 48VDC.
The power dissipation under full load is as follows:
12VDC/0.4A
48VDC/0.11A
Note: Use qualified power supply by SELV or double insulation of UL 60950 or UL 61010-1 or UL
61010-2-201 standards.
Insert the DC input wires into the corresponding terminals, and tighten the clamp screws to hold them in
place. Make sure that the plastic terminal block connector prongs are plugged firmly into the terminal
block receptacles.
Power wiring information:
Use cable type - AWG (American Wire Gauge) 18-24 and the corresponding pin type cable terminals.
Use torque value 1.7 lb-in, do not use excessive force when fixing wiring.
Label clean up:
Indoor use and pollution degree II, it must be wiped with a dry cloth for clean up the labelling.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the
equipment may be impaired.
Environment:
The media converter shall be mounted in an industrial control panel and ambient temperature is not
exceed 75 degree Celsius.
Altitude up to 2000 meters.
Humidity range (Operational): 5% to 95%, non-condensation.
The product is open type.
Make sure that the equipment receives adequate ventilation. Do not block the ventilation holes of the
equipment.

* LFPT=Link Fault Pass Through
If Force mode is enabled, the media converter must be restarted in order for the new setting to
take effect.
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 fails, 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.

Relay Output Alarm
The media converter is equipped with relay output contacts on the terminal block for signaling of a
power or port failure. The relay output can be connected to an alarm signaling device. Current is 0.6A
@ 30VDC.
