Transition Networks SSDTF10xx-10x series
Devices encode and decode T1 or E1 twisted-pair
copper signals over fiber optic cable to extend the
distance and transmission reliability of high-speed
T1 or E1 data traffic. The device is framing independent (as ESF vs. D4) and supports all
common line codes (e.g., AMI, B8ZS, HDB3).
The SSDTF10xx-10x is designed to be installed in pairs. For example, install one
SSDTF1011-105 as the “local ” Device and another SSDTF1011-105 as the “remote ”
Device.

Installation
CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions
when setting the jumper and switches. Failure to observe this caution could result in
damage to, and subsequent failure of, the device.
Set the hardware/software jumper
The hardware/software jumper is located on the circuit board inside the device
housing.
1.Using a small screwdriver, remove the four (4) screws that secure the cover and
carefully remove the cover from the device.
2.The jumper is located on the circuit board and is labeled “H” and “S”.
3.Using small needle-nosed pliers or similar device, move the jumper to the
desired position. (Refer to the above drawing.)
4.Carefully replace the cover on the device and replace the four (4) screws that
secure the cover to the device.
Set the MDI/MDI-X switch (hardware mode only)
The MDI/MDI-X switch is located on the side of the device. This switch allows the
network administrator to use straight-through cable in installations where crossover
configuration cable is required. Use a small flat-blade screwdriver or a similar device
to set the recessed switch.

If both Devices are under software control, the network administrator can initiate
the loop-back test function on the copper interface (local or remote) or on the fiber
interface (local or remote). These four loop-back test scenarios are described in
detail on page 14.
Set the configuration switches
The configuration switches are located on the side of the device and are used to
configure the device for various network conditions.
The switches are labeled 1 through 8 on the device housing top. There are two sets
(a “left, SW 2” and a “right, SW 1”) each with four switches labeled 1 through 4
(see the drawing below).
