AT-MX400T4 10BASE-T/100BASE-T4 T ransceiver

Installation Guide

Overview

The Fast Ethernet
and 802.3u Ethernet
ports all common Ethernet media with Micro Transceivers for 10 Mb/s thin coax
(10BASE2), UTP (10BASE-T) and Fiber Optic (10BASE-FL, FOIRL) and 100Mb/s
UTP (100BASE-T4, 100BASE-TX) and Fiber Optic (100BASE-FX) LAN systems.

The AT-MX400T4 transceiver provides the media-dependent-interface (MDI) to
media-independent-interface (MII) services required of the 100BASE-T4 physical­layer-device (PHY) sublayer. The AT-MX400T4 complies with ANSI/IEEE 802.3 and

802.3u. Direct connection of the AT-MX400T4 to the 40-pin MII connector found on
most 100BASE Ethernet stations (DTEs) reduces cabling costs.

Status Indicators

The AT-MX400T4 shows status by means of LEDs as listed in Table 1.

Table 1: LED Guide

LED Name Meaning When LED Is Illuminated

100 Mb/s Indicates 100 Mbps speed
LNK Indicates Link established
ACT Indicates transmit or receive Activity (flashes)
PWR Indicates Power applied

Half or Full Duplex

At power up, the default operation mode is 100Mb/s half duplex. To set the AT­MX400T4 to another operation mode (10 Mb/s full or half duplex), refer to the adapter
card or hub manual; the adapter card driver or hub management software accesses
the MII Mode Control Register on the AT-MX400T4.

PHY Address

The PHY section of the micro transceiver is always set to an address (typically 1).
This address is used locally by the DTE to differentiate multiple PHYs connected to a
single MII. Addresses are selected using the Physical Address DIP switch on the front
of the transceiver. The address range is 0-1 decimal; the default setting as shipped is
address 1.

When the address is set to 0, the transceiver is in Isolation Mode. In Isolation
Mode, the transceiver responds only to MDIO and MDC signals and ignores all
other MII signals.

NOTE

Auto-Detection

The AT-MX400T4 suppor ts auto-detection. If the other end supports 100Base-T4, the
AT-MX400T4 will auto switch to 100mb/s at half duplex. If the other end supports
10Base-T the AT-MX400T4 will auto switch to 10mb/s at half duplex.

Cabling

The AT-MX400T4 uses RJ45 connectors and 4-pair wire of category 3, 4, or 5
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or type 1 shielded twisted pair (STP). The recom­mended maximum cable length is 100 meters.

Automatic polarity correction.

straight-through cable to a hub or a crossover cable to another PHY. See Figure 1 for
standard wiring to a hub. If the polarity is inverted, the MX400T4 automatically cor­rects polarity.
