** SBFTF1029-120 and -121 are intended to be installed in the same network

where one is the local converter and the other is the remote converter.

*** SBFTF1029-122 and -123 are intended to be installed in the same network

where one is the local converter and the other is the remote converter.

The chassis version of the media converter is CBFTF10xx-12x. For more information, see the CBFTF10xx-12x user’s guide on-line at: www.transition.com.

Installation

Copper and Fiber Ports

The figure below illustrates the locations of the five (5) twisted-pair copper ports and the one (1) fiber port.

Installation -- Continued

Set the Dip Switches

The dip switches are located on the side of the media converter. Use a small, flat-blade screwdriver or a similar device to set each dip switch.

“SW1” switches 1 - 6

Dip switches 1, 2, and 3 apply only to twisted-pair copper port 1 (TP1).

Dip switch 4 applies to fiber port 1 (F1).

Dip switch 5 applies to all twisted-pair copper ports (TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4, TP5).

Dip switch 6 is not in use.

“Config. Switches” 1 - 4

Dip switches 1, 2, 3, and 4 apply only to twisted-pair copper port 2 (TP2).

NOTE: Switches 1, 2, and 3 apply only to twisted-pair copper port 1 (TP1).

1. Twisted-Pair Auto-Negotiation

Up (Enabled) - The media converter “advertises”

ALL rate and mode capabilities to the network:

• 100Mb/s full-duplex • 100Mb/s half-duplex,

• 10Mb/s full-duplex • 10Mb/s half-duplex.

Down (Disabled) - The bridging media converter does not “advertise” the rate and mode capabilities to the network. Switches 2 and 3 are then used to set the twisted-pair rate and mode.

2. Twisted-Pair Rate

Up (100Base-TX) - Sets the twisted-pair rate to

100Base-TX.

Down (10Base-T) - Sets the twisted-pair rate to 10Base-T.

3. Twisted-Pair Mode

Up (Full-Duplex) - The twisted-pair cable

distances are constrained by the cable requirements (see pages 1 and 2).

Down (Half-Duplex): - The twisted-pair cable distances are constrained by the 512-Bit Rule (see page 9).

NOTE: DIP switch 5 (in the “SW” set) applies to ALL twisted-pair copper ports (TP1, TP2, TP3, TP4, TP5).

5. AutoCross

Up (Enable) - The media converter connects

automatically to either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair copper cable.

Down (Disable) - Either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair copper cable must be installed, according to the site requirements

4. Monitor for Twisted-Pair Port 2 (TP2)

Up (Off) - The twisted-pair port 2 (TP2) functions as directed by switches 1, 2, and 3.

Down (On) - The twisted-pair port 2 (TP2)

functions as a “sniffer” port and transmits all packets received from ports F1 and TP1.
