User Manual
DESCRIPTION:
The FlexPoint GX/T is a 10/100/1000BASE-T UTP to
1000BASE-X fiber media converter that supports jumbo frames up to 10,240 bytes. The GX/T features Small
Form Pluggable (SFP) transceivers that support both
100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-X for interoperability with
Gigabit and Fast Ethernet fiber equipment.
Both the fiber port and the UTP port support autonegotiation, an IEEE standard which defines how all the communicating devices automatically perform their configuration functions.
The auto-negotiation feature can be disabled on both ports
(for manual configuration) using DIP-switches on the product. This is useful in a situation where the GX/T is connected to a non-negotiating device and the configuration parameters must be set manually.
Page 1
setting the DIP-switch to “Off” causes the unit to advertise no Pause capability. In the manual mode, this DIPswitch determines the Symmetrical Pause behavior.
Loopback “Off/On” DIP-Switch:
Setting this DIP-switch “On” enables loopback on the fiber and UTP ports (see Figure 1).

NOTE: RFD is only available when the fiber port is operating in manual mode.
REMOTE FAULT
Each port will generate an “IEEE remote_fault indicator” when the incoming signal to the port is lost. When a port is configured for auto-negotiation, it will set the remote fault bit “high” in the AN advertisement when the port detects a loss of incoming signal. See LED Indicators table on page 9 for specifics on how the unit reports the detection of this signal.
When the fiber port is operating in 100BASE-FX, a loss of incoming signal will cause the port to generate a Far-End-
Fault indicator pattern. See LED Indicators table on page
9 for specifics on how the unit reports the detection of this signal.

WARNING!
Before inserting the Power Adapter, verify that the power on the unit is appropriate for your AC line voltage source.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1.) Configure the appropriate FlexPoint GX/T DIP-Switch settings.
2.) Connect the UTP port via a Category 5 or better cable to a 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T Ethernet device.
3.) When using fixed fiber port models, connect the appropriate multimode or single-mode fiber cable to the fiber port of the installed module. It is important to ensure that the transmit (Tx) is attached to the receive side of the device at the other end and the receive (Rx) is attached to the transmit side. Single-fiber (SF) media converter models operate in pairs. The Tx wavelength must match the Rx wavelength at the other end and the Rx wavelength must match the Tx wavelength at the other end.
4.) When using a GX/T SFP model, insert the SFP Fiber transceiver into the Port 1 SFP receptacle on the GX/T.
NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed (up) position before insertion.
LOOPBACK
The FlexPoint GX/T has the capability to provide loopback to aid in installation and maintenance. A DIP-switch is used to enable loopback on the module (see page 7).
Figure 1 shows the module in normal and loopback modes.

LINK MODES
In order to accommodate different user needs, the GX/T supports four different link modes (see Fig. 2).
In Link Segment (LS), a port transmits a Link signal independently of any received Link at any other port. For example, the UTP transmits a Link regardless of the fiber receiving a Link [Fig. 2(a) & (b)].
In Link Propagate (LP), a 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. 2(c)].
In Remote Fault Detection + Link Segment (RFD+LS), the fiber port transmits a Link signal only when receiving a Link at the fiber port. As a result, fiber faults (no Link received at the fiber) are looped-back and can be reported to the network core [Fig. 2(d)].
In Remote Fault Detection + Link Propagate (RFD+LP), the UTP port transmits a Link signal only when receiving a Link at the fiber port. The fiber port transmits a Link signal only when receiving Link signals at both the fiber port and the UTP port. As a result, fiber faults (no Link received at the fiber) are propagated forward and looped back for fault reporting at both the network core and the customer location [Fig. 2(e)].
NOTE: Connecting two converters with both set to RFD mode is not supported and will cause a “deadly embrace” lockup.

DIP-SWITCHES
F/O Manual/Auto “MAN/AN” DIP-Switch:
Setting this DIP-Switch to P1 Auto-Negotiate “AN” (factory setting) enables the Fiber Port to determine duplex mode automatically. If the connected device cannot provide the proper signal to indicate its own mode of operation, this DIP-Switch should be set to P1 Manual “MAN.” This feature allows connections with legacy devices that do not support auto-negotiation.
NOTE: When the fiber port is in Manual Mode, a link-up may not occur with other devices. Both devices must be set to the same mode (either Manual or Auto-Negotiate) for the link-up to occur.
When set to auto-negotiation, the fiber port will automatically reconfigure to manual mode when an autonegotiation connection cannot be established.
F/O Speed “100/1000” DIP-Switch:
The GX/T supports 100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-X SFPs.
This DIP-switch is used to configure the unit for the speed of SFP used. Setting this DIP-switch to “1000” enables the fiber port is accept 1000BASE-X SFPs. Setting this DIP-switch to “100” enables the fiber port to accept
100BASE-FX SFPs. This DIP-switch is only available on the SFP model.
This DIP-switch is ignored when using Omnitron branded
SFPs. The GX/T automatically configures the fiber port to the correct speed.
UTP Configuration DIP-Switches:
See the UTP Modes table on page 8.
Pause “On/Off” DIP-Switch:
In auto-negotiation mode, setting this DIP-switch to “On” allows the unit to advertise as Symmetrical and
Asymmetrical Pause capability. In auto-negotiation mode,
