Transition Networks SSEFE10xx-10x series
Ethernet / Fast Ethernet media converter is a
10Mbps or 100Mbps switch-selectable media
converter. Both the copper and fiber links operate at the same speed setting via a
hard set with a dip switch, so the media converter operates at either 10 Mb/s
copper to fiber or 100 Mb/s copper to fiber.

* Typical maximum cable distance. Actual distance is dependent upon the
physical characteristics of the network. (TX) = transmit, (RX) = receive
The SSEFE10xx-10x media converter is designed to be installed in pairs, where one
is the local media converter and the other is the remote. For example, a local
SSEFE1011-100 converter is connected, via fiber, to a remote SSEFE1011-100
converter.
For a single fiber network, a local SSEFE1029-100 is connected, via fiber, to a
remote SSEFE1029-101 converter.

Installation
The Link Pass-Through and speed switches are located on the side of the
media converter. Use a small screwdriver to set the recessed switches.
Set Link Pass-Through (switch 1)
Switch 1 sets the Link Pass-Through feature:
up= Enable Link Pass-Through.
down = Disable Link Pass-Through.
Link Pass-Through is a troubleshooting feature that allows the media converter
to monitor both the fiber and copper RX (receive) ports for loss of signal. In
the event of a loss of an RX signal on one media port, the media converter will
automatically disable the TX (transmit) signal of the other media port, thus,
“passing through” the link loss. This feature prevents the loss of valuable data
unknowingly transmitted over an invalid link.

Installation -- Continued
Power the Media Converter
AC
1. Connect the barrel connector on the power adapter to the media
converter’s power port (located on the back of the media converter).
2.Connect the power adapter plug to AC power.
3.Verify that the media converter is powered by observing the illuminated
LED power indicator light.
DC
Consult the user’s guide for the Transition Networks SPS1872-xx DC external
power supply for powering the media converter.
Far-End
Device
Set the Speed (switch 2)
Switch 2 sets the speed for both the twisted-pair copper and fiber links:
up= copper and fiber links are at 100Mb/s.
down = copper and fiber links are at 10 Mb/s.
NOTE: The SSEFE10xx-10x media converters are fully compliant with
10Base-T, 100Base-TX, and 100Base-FX standards and, therefore, can be
connected to any compliant 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, and 100Base-FX devices.
The SSEFE10xx-10x media converters are NOT 10Base-FL compliant and,
therefore, must be connected to another SSEFE10xx-10x media converter in a
10Mb/s network.
The AutoCross feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover (MDI-X)
cables to be used when connecting to devices, such as hubs, transceivers, or
network interface cards (NICs). AutoCross determines the characteristics of the
cable connection and automatically configures the unit to link up, regardless of
the cable configuration.
NOTE: The SSEFE10xx-10x series media converter does NOT support rate
conversion between 10Mb/s and 100Mb/s network devices.
