Site note: There is a strong smell of what I believe is butanol in the seatainer where the turbulence tower fibers are terminated. This is the first seatainer as one drives into the site. There are several butanol bottles in that seatainer.

The manual for the fiber/copper network converters (Transition Networks, model E-100BTX-FX-05) describes the dip switch options. I've cut and pasted some of the manual to the end of this entry. It seems that we should disable the link pass-through and far-end fault options on both converters. Link pass-through and far-end fault options can cause a copper interface to be disabled if a fault is detected on the remote copper interface or on the fiber. These options appear to be for a building network with good network monitoring equipment. Perhaps a power outage, cable disconnect, or powering down a network switch could cause the converters to think there is a fault in the copper lineethernet or the fiber, and then the copper interfaces would be disabled. The manual says nothing about whether the interfaces are automatically brought up if the fault disappears.
