Media Converter Madness

Problems communicating with an INFI-90 system over fiber media converters using serial SemAPI interface. Communications drop constantly, points take forever to load.

Basically:

INFI-90<->MediaCon<->~500M MMF<->MediaCon<->SemAPI

We're reasonably sure the problem is not at the system level. We've connected a spare system to the terminal unit, and it transfers data FAST. However, when we connect everything via media converter (even with a short loop) data transfer drops to nil.

We're using telebyte 9271a's as the converters. The Terminal Unit is set up for non-handshaking mode, and we've synched the baud rates, stop bits, etc at both ends.

Any ideas, cause we're all out.
