1. Introduction
Media Converter Chassis
The FVT-4000 Media Converter Chassis provides compact management on up to 10
optional modular converter units, which allows your network connectivity to be more
flexible. The Media Converter Chassis also supports 2 redundant hot-swappable
power supplies, and all modular converter units in the Chassis are also hot- swappable
units.
Fiber Converter
Fiber Converters convert Ethernet signals from twisted pair cable to fiber optic cable
and vice versa, providing seamless connection between two different media. By
connecting a 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, 1000Base-T twisted pair devices to a 100
Base-FX compliant ST, SC port, 1000Base-SX, 1000Base-LX this converter can
greatly increase the flexibility of Ethernet cabling connectivity.
1.1. Features
The Media Converter Chassis is a combination of 10-slot host cabinet and optional
several of media converter bracket modules. A maximum 10-bracket module can be
installed in the cabinet with two redundant power supplies. The Power supply supports
AC input type and redundant feature.

3. Rack Mount Installation
This Chapter provides the installation procedure of The Media Converter Chassis.
Hardware Installation
The Media Converter Chassis is suitable for use in an office environment where it can
be rack-mounted in standard EIA 19-inch racks or standalone.
3.1. Desktop Application
1.
Set The Media Converter Chassis on a sufficiently large flat space with a power
outlet nearby.
2.
Apply the rubber footpads to each corner on the bottom of the Chassis. These
pads cushion the switch against shock/vibration.
3.
Connect the power cord. The power supply is self-adjusting for AC input power
between 100 and 240 Volts.
Note
Air vents must not be blocked and must have free access to the room ambient air for
cooling.
3.2. Rack Mounting
To stack The Media Converter Chassis in a standard 19-inch EIA rack, use the
supplied mounting kit. This kit contains 2 side-mounting brackets, 10 bracket screws,
and 4 larger rack-mount screws.
Perform the following steps to rack mount the Chassis:
1.
Attach the brackets to the device using the screws provided in the Bracket
Mounting Kit
5
Attaching Mounting Brackets
2.
Mount the device in the rack, using four rack-mounting screws (not provided).
Rack Mounting the Chassis
Note
For proper ventilation, allow about 6 inches of clearance on all sides of the Chassis.
This is especially important for enclosed rack installations.

4. Connecting Your Network
This chapter provides one sample of network connectivity in which the Media
Converter Chassis.
4.1. Network Connectivity
In the following network connectivity example, Switches, hubs, and PCs have been
interconnected with the Media Converter Chassis.
Application Example
In the network connectivity, we divided the connectivity into three groups. The top
group may be in MIS department, and the below left one, for instance, can be R&D
department. The below right group, for instance, can be QA department.
