TP-Link TL-FC311B-2 Gigabit WDM SFP to RJ45 Fiber Media Converter User Manual

1. Giriş

The TP-Link TL-FC311B-2 is a Gigabit WDM SFP to RJ45 Fiber Media Converter designed to convert 1000BASE-LX fiber optic signals to 1000Base-T copper media and vice versa. This device facilitates long-distance network connections by extending Ethernet over fiber optic cable, supporting distances up to 2 km using a single-mode fiber. It employs WDM (wavelength division multiplexing) technology, allowing data transmission and reception over a single fiber strand, which can reduce cabling costs and simplify infrastructure.

3. Kurulum Talimatları

1. Cihazı Ambalajından Çıkarın: Carefully remove the TL-FC311B-2 from its packaging.
2. Güç Bağlantısı: Connect the provided power adapter to the DC 5V port on the side of the media converter. Plug the adapter into a standard electrical outlet. The PWR LED indicator on the front panel should illuminate, indicating the device is powered on.
3. Ethernet Bağlantısı: Connect a standard Ethernet cable (RJ45) from your network device (e.g., switch, router, computer) to the Gigabit Ethernet port on the front of the TL-FC311B-2. The Ethernet Bağlantısı/Yasası LED should light up when a valid connection is established and blink during data activity.
4. Fiber Optic Connection: Connect a single-mode fiber optic cable to the SFP fiber port on the front of the TL-FC311B-2.
   • Önemli Not: For a complete fiber link, you must use two compatible WDM media converters. The TL-FC311B-2 (Tx 1310nm, Rx 1550nm) must be paired with a TL-FC311A-2 (Tx 1550nm, Rx 1310nm) at the other end of the fiber link. Using two 'B' models or two 'A' models will prevent the link from establishing.
   • Ensure the fiber cable is securely connected. The Fiber Bağlantı/Yasa LED should illuminate when a stable fiber link is established and blink during data activity.
5. Bağlantıyı Doğrula: Once both Ethernet and fiber connections are made, and the corresponding Link/Act LEDs are lit, your media converter is ready for operation.

It shows configurations for surveillance systems using IP cameras, point-to-point fiber connections between buildings, and long-range data transmission in industrial settings, highlighting the use of fiber and Ethernet cables.

4. Kullanım Talimatları

The TL-FC311B-2 operates automatically once properly connected and powered. It functions as a transparent bridge between the fiber optic and Ethernet segments of your network.

4.1 LED Göstergeleri

• PWR (Güç): Green LED. On when the device is powered.
• Fiber Bağlantı/Yasa: Green LED. On when a stable fiber optic link is established. Blinks when data is being transmitted or received over the fiber link.
• Ethernet Bağlantısı/Yasası: Green LED. On when a stable Ethernet link is established. Blinks when data is being transmitted or received over the Ethernet port.

4.2 Otomatik Fonksiyonlar

• Otomatik-Müzakere: The Ethernet port automatically detects the speed (10/100/1000Mbps) and duplex mode (Half-Duplex/Full-Duplex) of the connected Ethernet device.
• Otomatik MDI/MDIX: The Ethernet port automatically adjusts for straight-through or crossover Ethernet cables, eliminating the need for specific cable types.

5. Bakım

• Temizlik: Keep the device clean and free from dust. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.
• Havalandırma: Ensure proper airflow around the device to prevent overheating. Do not block ventilation openings.
• Çevre: Operate the device within the specified temperature and humidity ranges (0-40°C, 10-90% non-condensing humidity).
• Kablo Yönetimi: Ensure all cables are securely connected and not under strain. Avoid sharp bends in fiber optic cables.

6. Sorun Giderme

• Güç Yok:
  • Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to the device and a working electrical outlet.
  • Elektrik prizinin çalışır durumda olduğundan emin olun.
  • Kontrol edin PWR LED ışıklıdır.
• No Fiber Link (Fiber Link/Act LED Off):
  • Confirm that the fiber optic cable is correctly and securely connected to both media converters.
  • Ensure you are using a compatible pair of WDM media converters (e.g., TL-FC311B-2 with TL-FC311A-2). WDM converters require specific Tx/Rx wavelengths to match.
  • Check the fiber cable for damage.
  • Verify the fiber type (single-mode) and distance are within the device's specifications (up to 2 km).
• No Ethernet Link (Ethernet Link/Act LED Off):
  • Ensure the Ethernet cable is securely connected to both the media converter and the network device.
  • Verify the Ethernet cable is not damaged.
  • Check the status of the connected network device (e.g., switch, router).
• Yavaş Veri Transferi:
  • Ensure all connected devices support Gigabit Ethernet for optimal performance.
  • Check for excessive network traffic or other bottlenecks in your network.
  • Verify the fiber optic cable is not exceeding its maximum supported distance.
