Overview Introduction The TCF-142-RM series fiber converters are slide-in modules that can be installed in the NRack System’s rackmount chassis, such as the TRC- 190 series. The slide-in module is equipped with a multiple interface circuit that can handle RS-232 or RS-422/485 serial interfaces, and multi-mode or single-mode fiber. The TCF-142-RM seri ...

Installation The media converter slide-in module can be hot-swapped, which means the chassis doesn’t have to power off or be removed during installation. Align the slide-in module with the chassis installation slot so that the panel fastener screw is at the top of the module. Carefully slide the slide-in module into the slot while aligning the module ...
