Overview
The Radiance 10Mbps single interface line cards offer transparent
integration of fiber optic connectivity or copper-to-coaxial integration in
Ethernet networks. These innovative solutions provide full signal restoration—
with low bit delay—ensuring accurate data transmission and guaranteeing
maximum cable length support. All cards are compatible with any Ethernet
device.
Through Metrobility’s unique management functionality, you can manage
remote connections through console commands, our NetBeacon® or WebBeacon
software, or with any standard SNMP application. This end-to-end visibility of
your network not only simplifies network management but also increases
network reliability.
The Radiance 10Mbps line card provides the following key features:
•
Fused power on each line card to protect the rest of the cards in the
chassis from a short circuit. The power (PWR) LED on an affected
line card will not be lit if its fuse is blown.
•
•
•
Half or full duplex support.
Auto polarity support on all twisted-pair ports.
Link Loss Carry Forward functionality to aid in troubleshooting a
remote network connection (excluding the R111-12). Refer to the
section titled Link Loss Carry Forward for more information.
•
MDI-II/MDI-X switch installed on all twisted-pair ports to
eliminate the need for crossover cables.
•
•
Low bit delay to ensure accurate data flow across the network.
Strict standards compliance that provides compatibility with other
vendors’ equipment for flexible connectivity.
•
Transparency to data frame sizes.

Installation Guide
Follow the simple steps outlined in this section to install and start using
your Radiance 10Mbps single interface line card.
NOTE: Electrostatic discharge precautions should be taken when handling any
line card. Proper grounding is recommended (i.e., wear a wrist strap).
Unpack the Line Card
Your order has been provided with the safest possible packaging, but
shipping damage does occasionally occur. Inspect your line card
carefully. If you discover any shipping damage, notify your carrier and
follow their instructions for damage and claims. Save the original
shipping carton if return or storage of the unit is necessary.

Set the Jumper
All Radiance 10Mbps single interface line cards, excluding the R111-
12, incorporate LLCF (Link Loss Carry Forward) functionality as an
aid in troubleshooting a remote connection. The jumper configures the
LLCF operation.*

Installation Guide
Set the MDI-II/MDI-X Switch
(twisted-pair ports only)
To eliminate the need for crossover cables, the Radiance line cards
have an MDI-II to MDI-X slide switch for each twisted-pair port. This
switch is positioned directly behind its associated RJ-45 connector and
allows simple setup in either straight-through (default) or crossover
configurations. See the diagrams on pages 5 and 6 for the location of
the switch.

When setting the MDI-II to MDI-X switch, observe the positioning of
the following symbols:
• the parallel symbol (II) indicates a straight-through or parallel
connection. (default)
• the cross symbol (X) indicates a crossover connection.
These symbols are clearly marked on the printed circuit board. Simply
slide the switch in the direction of the appropriate symbol. Use the
following tables as a guide.

to secure each card firmly
to chassis before making
network connections.
Blank Panel
• Grasp the card by the front panel as shown.
• Insert the line card into a slot on the chassis making sure that the top
and bottom edges of the board are aligned with the top and bottom
card guides in the chassis. Do not force the board into the chassis
unnecessarily. It should slide in easily and evenly.
• Slide the card in until the top and bottom edges of the front panel are
flush and even with the top and bottom edges of the chassis.
• To secure the line card to the chassis, turn the thumbscrew clockwise
until it is snug. The card is now properly installed and ready for
network connections.
Connect to the Network
To connect the Radiance line card to the network, insert the cables into
the appropriate connectors as illustrated below. Be sure the card is
secured to the chassis before making network connections. Once power
is applied to the unit, correct connectivity can be verified via the LK
(link) LED.

Twisted-Pair Interface
Twisted-pair ports provide shielded RJ-45 connectors that support a
maximum segment length of 100m. Use Category 3, 4 or 5 cables.
Fiber Optic Interface
When making network connections, make sure that the transmit (TX)
port of the card connects to the receive (RX) port of the connected
device, and that the transmit (TX) port of the connected device con-
nects to the receive (RX) port of the card.
The singlemode (SM) interface supports a maximum segment length of
14km. The multimode (MM) port on the R111-1T supports a maximum
segment length of 5km. All other MM ports support a maximum
segment length of 2km for remote links.
Thinnet Coaxial Interface
The R111-12 BNC connector supports a maximum segment length of
185m over RG-58 coaxial cable.

User Guide
This section contains information about the operating features of the
Radiance 10Mbps single interface line cards.
LED Indicators
The Radiance 10Mbps single interface line cards provide several LEDs for the
visible verification of unit status and proper functionality. These LEDs can help
with troubleshooting and overall network diagnosis and management. There are
separate activity (AT) and link (LK) indicators for each port.
When lit, the LEDs indicate the following information:
• PWR (power): normal operation.
• LK (link): satisfactory link status.
• AT (activity): receiving data.
• COL (collision): collision detected. (R111-12 only)
Once power is applied to the card, verify correct connectivity via the LK LED.

Link Loss Carry Forward (LLCF)*
The Radiance 10Mbps single interface line cards incorporate an LLCF function
for troubleshooting a remote connection. When LLCF is enabled, the FL and TP
ports do not transmit a link signal until they receive a link signal from the
opposite port.
The diagram below shows a typical network configuration with a good link
status using Radiance line cards for remote connectivity. Note that LLCF is
enabled as indicated in the diagram.

If the connection breaks, the line card carries that link loss forward to the
switch/hub which generates a trap to the management station. The administrator
can then determine the source of the problem.

Important: When connecting a Radiance line card with LLCF enabled to an auto-
negotiating device, force both sides of the configuration to 10Mbps and either full
or half duplex. This allows the card to immediately see link pulses and start passing
data.
* Line cards are shipped with LLCF disabled (OFF).
