100BaseFX Ethernet Port Connection

The concept behind the SC port and cable is quite straightforward.

Suppose you are connecting devices I and II. Contrary to electrical signals,

optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data.

Consequently, one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from device

I to device II, and the other optical line is used transmit data from device

II to device I, for full-duplex transmission.

All you need to remember is to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I

to the Rx (receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I

to the Tx (transmit) port of device II. If you are making your own cable,

we suggest labeling the two sides of the same line with the same letter

(A-to-A and B-to-B, as shown below, or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

Redundant Power Inputs

The PTC-101-M12 has two power inputs, which can be connected

simultaneously to live DC power sources. If one power source fails, the

other live source acts as a backup, and automatically supplies all of the

PTC-101-M12’s power needs.
