AS4TEF10xx-10x
Stand-Alone Media Converter
• RS-232 to Fiber
• (4) T1/E1 to Fiber
The AS4TEF10xx-10x media converter can extend signals from an RS-232 data port and
up to four (4) T1/E1 network ports over fiber. The RS-232 and T1/E1 interfaces are independent of each other and the signals from these ports can be sent over the fiber interface simultaneously.
The AS4TEF10xx-10x is designed to be installed in pairs. For example, install one S4TEF1011-100 as the local media converter and another S4TEF1011-100 as the remote media converter.
All S4TEF10xx-10x models have the following copper connectors:
The various fiber connectors are available on separate models. Both duplex and single mode fiber optic converters are available:

Remote Management Function
The S4TEF10xx-10x, can be remotely managed when connected via fiber cable to a local C4TEF10xx-10x slide-in-module media converter that is installed in a managed Transition Networks PointSystem™ chassis. The SNMP section (below) lists the commands that can be used to monitor and manage a networked S4TEF10xx-10x media converter at a remote location. For more details, see the C4TEF10xx-10x user’s guide on-line at: www.transition.com.
SNMP
See the on-line documentation that comes with Transition Networks FocalPoint™ software for applicable commands and usage.
Use SNMP at an attached terminal or at a remote location to monitor the media converter by monitoring:
• Media converter power
• Fiber link status
• Copper link status for each T1/E1 (AIS, link)
• RS-232 status (speed, bits, parity, stop)
• AIS detected on fiber link
• All hardware switch settings
• Model #, serial #, PIC revision, HW revision, group string, connectors
Also, use SNMP to enter network commands that:
• Local and remote fiber loop-back
• Local and remote T1/E1 loop-back for each channel
• T1/E1 line options (DS1, DSX-1, J1, D1, AIS)
• RS-232 settings (speed, bits, parity, stop)
• T1/E1 monitor modes and loop-back modes
• Boot-load firmware (local unit only)
The local (auxiliary) factory maintenance interface via the RS-232 connector supports:
• Switch selection for the RS-232 interface
• Access to all local and remote status information
• Perform all local and remote commands
• Operate at selected baud rates

Troubleshooting
If the media converter fails, isolate and correct the failure by determining the answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
1. Is the “PWR” LED illuminated? NO
• Ensure that the power adapter is the proper type of voltage and cycle
frequency for the outlet (See “Power Supply” on page 14.)
• Ensure the power adapter is properly installed in the media converter
and in the grounded outlet.
.
YES
• Proceed to step 2.
2. Is the “LKF” LED illuminated? NO
• Check the fiber cables for proper connection.
• Verify that the TX and RX cables on the local media converter are
connected to the RX and TX ports, respectively, on the remote media converter.
