How to install Transition Networks C2210-1011 Fast Ethernet Media Converter
Follow these steps to quickly deploy the C2210-1011 and establish a reliable copper-to-fiber link that expands your network’s reach:
- Plan your topology: Identify the devices that will connect via copper (RJ-45) and fiber (ST). Confirm that the fiber path length is within the 2 km limit for 100Base-FX and verify that intermediate devices support auto-negotiation for seamless compatibility.
- Power down the devices: Before making connections, power off the switches, routers, and endpoints to prevent transient damage and to ensure a clean start when you power the converter back up.
- Connect the copper side: Insert the Ethernet cable from your switch or NIC into the C2210-1011’s RJ-45 port. Use a reliable Cat5e (or better) cable to maximize performance at 100 Mbps.
- Connect the fiber side: Attach a fiber optic patch cable with an ST connector to the ST port on the converter, and connect the other end to your 100Base-FX fiber switch, media device, or distant network node.
- Power on and verify: Apply power to the converter and verify link indicators on the device and connected equipment. Because this is an unmanaged, plug-and-play device, traffic should begin flowing without further configuration.
- Validate performance: Run basic network tests to confirm throughput and latency meet your requirements. Monitor for steady link illumination, and confirm that the copper and fiber links are reporting healthy activity under typical load conditions.
- Troubleshooting tips: If the link is not established, recheck fiber polarity (TX to RX alignment), inspect the fiber path for damage or excessive bending, and ensure the copper side is connected to a live port on the switch or NIC. Reset the devices if necessary and recheck LED indicators for activity and link status.

The Best of the Modern Guides to the PCT.
Format: Paperback
This book is not an update of the Wilderness Press classics on which the trail was discovered and hiked by a couple generations from the 1970s to around 2010. It does however owe those books a heavy and unacknowledged debt. This is most notable in lettering sections which the author of this guide, Shawnte Salabert, attributes to the PCTA but in fact come from scarified, Schaffer, et all who wrote the original guides to California, Oregon, and Washington. Even the definition of sweat constitutes the Southern California trail, comes from those guides. (It starts at the Mexican Border near Campo California and ends in Tuolumne Meadows, Yosemite.). But alas, those books are long out of print, in part because today’s hikers prefer light weight apps with minimal trail information as opposed to detailed descriptions of the physical geography and varied ecosystems of the trail. I’m not sure the lost knowledge has equaled the reduced weight but I’m a bit old school.
And this book is as much a throwback to that kind of writing as it is a nod to recent demands of the hiking community. It does cover every mile of the route, suggest campsites along the way, and as much as possible provide an option for day and section hikes along the trail for just about anyone. The author provides good car descriptions to major trailheads for each section hike he recommends as well as available entry and exit options along the way. The writing is entertaining and the author has his own sense of humor that will become readily apparent as you read the text. Based on my experiences (and I’ve hiked 95% of the trail he describes at least once; sometimes multiple times) his mileage descriptions are accurate and you will easily be able to recognize the places he describes along the way. The book also features nice color photos and it’s availability in digital form will certainly please the gram counting hiker set. On the other hand, I miss seeing elevations along with miles at each major trail intersection, pass etc. Salabert does give total elevation gain and loss for each section of trail he describes but sometimes it’s nice to know just how much of a climb to expect.
Ultimately, this book fulfills it’s purpose. You should want to hike the PCT after reading a few pages if you hadn’t already when you purchased the book. And if you are like many people with only a weekend or a few days to spare hiking the trail, this book will make planning short sections easier. It offers a lot. But it reminds me of an era when guidebooks offered even more.

Superb Guide in All Respects
Format: Paperback
An invaluable reference for anybody interested in section hiking the trail. I especially appreciate the coverage of water and campsites. It’s also a fun and beautiful read for any armchair adventurer. Salabert did an amazing job bringing together well-written text, data, maps, and beautiful photos to create a comprehensive guidebook. Deserves to do very well.

Truly embracing life along the Camino de Santiago
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
The Way of the Wind: Embracing Life While Walking the Camino do Santiago, by John W. Pearson, 2021, recounts one man’s experiences while walking the Camino de Santiago, a thirty-five day, five hundred mile walking journey from St. Jean Pied de Port in France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The journey follows a path tread by literally millions of pilgrims, or “pelegrinos”, as they seek to find something very person in the experience. The book is a travelogue recounting the miles of the daily trek, the people, stories, dining, lodging, and local services encountered along the way. There are a series of black and white photographs accenting the dialogue which give the reader a sense of involvement in the story. A nice touch was a simple map at the beginning to orient the reader along each day’s travel.
I absolutely loved this book. It was enjoyable to read and I found myself slowing down near the end of the book to better savor the details. It warrants a double read to go back and let those early experiences soak in a bit more.
I found the book to be educational, as I learned a lot about the historical significance of the route of the Camino, as well as specific landmarks along the way, such as a 10th century Roman bridge dwarfed by a new modern bridge overhead. I imagined myself walking along that ancient roadway, imagining what a pilgrim in 1300 must have thought.
The dialogue is playful, recount with hours of walking, lively dinners, and crowded “albergues” (think camp dorm rooms with bunk beds).
All was not rosy along the Camino. The narrative relates the aches of sore feet, legs, backs; the challenges of securing lodging and laundry; meanings lost in translation; inclement weather and treacherous roadways. Often mentioned are markers to honor the fallen dead along the Camino.
About 2/3rds through the book, John recants his very personal reason for going on the pilgrimage, which he describes as “The Whale in the Room”, referring to the motivation of Captain Ahab in Moby Dick. His honesty and vulnerability bring the entire journey into focus. He brings the reader to the Cruz de Ferro, where pilgrims have stopped for millennium with their deepest meanings.
I have known John Pearson since 1975, when we met in High School in El Paso, Texas. However, through the years, I moved and we lost close touch. There were many parts of this book of which I did not know the details. John’s story is very powerful, and will impact the reader deeply.
Once you have read the book, you will have a clear idea of the experience, and can judge for yourself if the Camino de Santiago is calling you. For me, I found the book asking me not “WILL you go?”, but “WHEN will you go?”

A remarkable story, illuminating and real.
Format: Paperback
This book is a journey, the author’s journey and potentially the reader’s as well. A story that at once reveals the author’s walk of hundreds of miles, intertwined through steps of ancient history, beautiful and interesting places, and traversed by countless people who through the ages embarked on similar journeys of their own. There is a revealing honesty that comes through these pages allowing the reader to feel vicariously on a kind of journey of one’s own. With great admiration for this writer and for all those who have traversed so consummate a pilgrimage, I found myself searching my own soul, visualizing the vast and beautiful detailed descriptions, enjoying the frequent humor and occasional hilarity, at times laughing out loud, feeling deeply moved, filled with questions and ideas about the ways we all find ourselves traveling our lives. The people, fellow pilgrims the writer meets along the way, the experiences they share on their subjective journeys, are honored by this author as are the lives of those who came before them over the centuries. It is a book filled with surprises, joy, pain, beauty. An absolutely awesome experience to read.
