Frequently Asked Questions - N785INTPSCMM2 Tripp Lite

How to install the N785INTPSCMM2 media converter?

Ensure all equipment is powered off, connect the fiber cable to the SC port, the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 port, then connect the supplied 48V power supply. Power on. Use DIP switches to configure LFP (1) and extended 10M mode (3) if needed.

What is the Link Fault Pass Through (LFP) function?

LFP detects a failure on one link (fiber or copper) and propagates it to the other link, preventing packet loss. Enable DIP switch 1 to activate it.

Can I use this converter with an Ethernet cable longer than 100 meters?

Yes, by enabling DIP switch 3 (10M), the maximum distance increases to 330 meters, but speed is limited to 10 Mbps.

What is the maximum supported distance for fiber optic?

With the N785INTPSCMM2 model (multimode 1310 nm), the maximum distance is 2000 meters (6561 feet).

Does the converter provide PoE power?

Yes, it injects 48V DC compliant with IEEE 802.3af/at standards on the RJ45 port, allowing it to power PoE devices such as cameras or access points.

How to know if the converter is working properly?

The LED indicators show status: PWR (power), PoE (PoE active), SD (fiber signal received), 1000M (Gigabit speed), L/A TP and FP (link and activity on copper and fiber ports).

Can I use an SFP transceiver with this model?

No, the N785INTPSCMM2 has a fixed SC fiber port. Only models N785-P01-SFP and N785-INT-PSFP accept SFP transceivers.

What types of Ethernet cables are recommended?

Use high-quality Cat5e or Cat6 cables, up to 100 meters for 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, and up to 330 meters in 10 Mbps mode.

What to do if the PWR LED does not turn on?

Check the connection of the external power supply and the wall outlet. Test with another outlet. If the problem persists, contact Tripp Lite support for possible warranty repair.

What is the warranty for this product?

Tripp Lite offers a 2-year limited warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. For any claims, contact customer service and have your proof of purchase.

Installation

Notes:

• To avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) damage, it is recommended you handle the product while wearing an ESD wrist grounding strap, or touch a conductive surface (such as metal) to discharge any potential ESD prior to handling the product.

• Before installation, verify your fiber equipment's wavelength (850 nm or 1310 nm) and mode type (Single or Multi) matches that of the N785-P01-Series or N785-INT-Series Media Converter.

• Ensure all equipment in the installation is powered off.

• (N785-P01-SFP and N785-INT-PSFP Models Only):

• Ensure all equipment in the installation is powered off.

• (N785-P01-SFP and N785-INT-PSFP Models Only):

Install a user-supplied SFP transceiver that matches your fiber equipment's credentials.

Note: Your fiber equipment's wavelength and mode type must match that of the N785-P01-Series or N785-INT-Series Media Converter.

1. Using existing fiber cable from your network infrastructure, connect the media converter to your fiber network.

2. With a user-supplied Cat5e/Cat6 cable (up to 100 m / 328 ft.), connect your IEEE 802.3 af/at PoE-compliant device to the media converter's 10/100/1000Base-T UTP port.

3. Using existing fiber cable from your network infrastructure, connect the media converter to your fiber network.

4. With a user-supplied Cat5e/Cat6 cable (up to 100 m / 328 ft.), connect your IEEE 802.3 af/at PoE-compliant device to the media converter's 10/100/1000Base-T UTP port.

Note: If your PoE-compliant device is farther than 100 m (328 ft.) away, moving DIP switch 3 (10M) to the ON position allows you to run an additional 230 m (750 ft.) of Cat5e/6 cable (up to 330 m / 1082 ft. away in total) at 10 Mbps speeds only.

1. Connect the included power supply to the media converter.

2. Turn on power to all equipment in the installation.

3. Connect the included power supply to the media converter.

4. Turn on power to all equipment in the installation.

DIP Switch Settings

Note: DIP switches 2 and 4 have no function.

DIP Switch 1 - Link Fault Pass Through (LFP)

To enable the LFP function, move DIP switch 1 to the ON position.

1 2 3 4

Link Fault Pass Through (LFP)

LFP provides constant monitoring of the links connected to the media converter. If either the copper or fiber link fails, the media converter will pass the fail state through both links (copper and fiber), preventing the connected equipment from transmitting packets that would otherwise end up lost.

The LFP function includes both the LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) and LLF (Link Loss Return) functions. LLCF and LLR functions can immediately alarm network administrators to the problem of the link media and provide an efficient solution to monitor the network.

Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF)

LLCF occurs when a device is connected to the converter and the TP (copper) line of the media converter loses the link, resulting in the media converter's fiber to disconnect from the transmission link.

Link Loss Return (LLR)

LLR occurs when a device is connected to the converter and the FP (fiber) line loses the link, resulting in the media converter's fiber to disconnect from the transmission link.

DIP Switch 3 - 10M

With DIP switch 3 In the ON position, the supported transfer distance of the RJ45 port changes to 330 ~m (1082 ft.) and the data transfer rate changes to 10 Mbps. This allows you to extend beyond the 100 ~m (328 ft.) limit while running at lower speeds. When in this mode, speeds of 100 and 1000 Mbps are not supported.
