Caution
Please power off and power on the GT-1205A after adjusting the DIP switch setting.
Power Information
The center pin diameter of the GT-1205A’s power jack is
2.5mm and the power jack allows an input power of 5V DC.
It conforms to the bundled AC-DC adapter and PLANET’s media chassis. Should you have any issue about the power connection, please contact your local sales representative.
Please keep the AC-DC adapter as a spare part when your
GT-1205A is installed to a Media Chassis.

4. Redundancy Overview
The GT-1205A provides rapid fiber redundancy of link for highly critical Ethernet applications. The redundant mode supports auto-recover function. If the destination port of a packet is linked down, it will forward the packet to the other port of the backup pair. The following figure shows the redundant function.

DC Receptacle 2.5mm
+5V for each slot
DC receptacle is 2.5mm wide that conforms to the GT-
1205A’s 2.5mm DC jack's central post. Do not install any improper unit.
The device is a power-required device, meaning it will not work till it is powered. If your networks should be active all the time, please consider using UPS (uninterrupted power supply) for your device. It will prevent you from network data loss or network downtime.
In some areas, installing a surge suppression device may also help to protect the GT-1205A from being damaged by unregulated surge or current.
3.3 Side View
The side panel of the GT-1205A has a DIP switch for setting to the 3-port switch mode or the 2-port redundant mode. When
“ON” , it is in the 2-port redundant mode. And when “OFF” , it is in the 3-port switch mode.

When the Primary Port’s link failure occurs, the traffic will swap to Backup Port automatically.
Once the link of the Primary Port is back, the traffic will swap from Backup Port to Primary Port.
5. Installing The Converter
The GT-1205A can be connected over fiber optic cabling at a distance extended from 550 meters to 2km (multi-mode fiber) to 10/20/40/60/80/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber), using the 100/1000BASE-X SFP modules. The SFP modules are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug in and out the SFP modules to and from any SFP port without having to power down the GT-1205A.
To install GT1205A, please follow these steps to install the
GT-1205A:
Ethernet Installation
Step 1: Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to which the GT-1205A will be attached.
Step 2: Ensure that there is no activity in the network.
Step 3: Slide in the 100/1000BASE-X SFP module. Make sure both sides of the SFP modules are with the same media type, for example, 100BASE-FX/2km multimode to 100BASE-FX/2km multi-mode, 1000BASE-
SX/550m multi-mode to 1000BASE-SX/550m multi-mode or 1000BASE-LX/10km single mode to
1000BASE-LX/10km single mode.

Step 4: Connect the fiber cable. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable to the SFP modules.
Step 5: Attach fiber cable from the GT-1205A to the fiber network. TX, RX must be paired at both ends.
Step 6: Connect the 5V DC power adapter to the GT-1205A and verify that the Power LED lights up.
Step 7: Turn on the power of the device/station; the LINK
LED should light up when all cables are well attached.
Note
1. It is recommended to use PLANET MFB/MGB series SFP modules for the GT-1205A. If you insert an SFP module that is not supported, the
GT-1205A will not recognize it. Please check appendix or go visit our Web site for detailed specification. http://www.planet.com.tw
check both the wires and transmitter before powering on the converter.

Note
3. To remove the SFP module, please remove the fiber connectors in advance and push the belt or latch of the module. Pull out the module with force may damage the module and the GT-
1205A.
Media Converter Chassis Installation
To install the GT-1205A in a 10-inch or 19-inch standard rack, follow the instructions described below.
Step 1: Place your GT-1205A on a hard flat surface, with the front panel positioned towards your front side.
Step 2: Carefully slide in the module until it is fully and firmly fitted into the slot of the chassis; the Power LED of the GT-1205A will turn ON.
Figure 6: Inserting GT-1205A into an available slot
Caution
1. Never push the converter into the slot with force; it could damage the chassis .
2. The Media Converter Chassis supports hot-swap; there is no need to turn off the whole chassis before sliding in the new converter.
