from the power cable wires. Connect the power cables to the unit by fastening the
stripped ends to the DC power connector.
Connect the power wires to the DC power source. The Power LED should indicate
the presence of power.
iConverter Gx AN Standalone Module QUICK START GUIDE
The Omnitron iConverter® Gx AN Standalone media converter provides 1000BASE-T
WARNING: Note the wire colors used in making the positive and negative
connections. Use the same color assignment for the connection at the DC
power source.
UTP to 1000BASE-FX fiber media conversion.
The Gx AN can be used to connect Gigabit file
servers to Gigabit switches and connect switches
with Gigabit fiber uplinks.
NOTE: If mounting with a safety ground attachment, use the safety ground
screw at the rear of the unit.
b. When using a Gx AN SFP model, insert the SFP Fiber transceiver into the Port 1
SFP receptacle on the Gx AN.
The GxAN supports Full/Half-duplex auto and forced
negotiation with both hardware and software manual
override controls.
NOTE: The release latch of the SFP Fiber transceiver must be in the closed
position before insertion.
The Gx AN standalone module is an unmanaged device.
c. Connect the UTP port via a Category 5 cable to a 1000BASE-T Ethernet device.

module, access Omnitron’s documentation download web page to view all relevant
documents:
d. Connect an 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.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1) Configure DIP-Switches
2) Set-up Module and Connect Cables
3) Verify Operation
3) VERIFY OPERATION
Once the module has been installed and configured, per steps 1 and 2, verify the
module is operational by viewing the status of the LED indicators. The table below
provides a description for each LED indicator.
1) CONFIGURE DIP-SWITCHES
SW1 - Port 1 Auto/Manual Negotiation “AN MAN”
The Power LED indicates the module is receiving power from the chassis.
When this DIP-switch is in the Auto-Negotiate “AN” position (factory default), the fiber
optic port is transparent to the network and allows the end devices connected to the
module to advertise through the module and establish negotiated settings between
the end devices. If Port 2 (UTP) is

These DIP-switches are only valid when Port 1 is set to “MAN”. Port 2 is always set to
auto-negotiation and DIP-switches SW2 and SW3 only define what modes are
advertised. See Figure C: Port 2 (UTP) Modes.
