SSETF10xx-200
Product Features
Full-Duplex / Half-Duplex
The SSETF10xx-200 receives and transmits network signals in either full-
duplex or half-duplex mode (depending upon the network devices to which
the Media Converter is attached).
USER’S GUIDE
SSETF10xx-200
Stand-Alone Media Converter
• Ethernet™ and Fast Ethernet™
• 10Base-T / 100Base-TX to
10Base-FL / Base-SX
Fast Ethernet™ in full-duplex mode allows the maximum cable distances
listed on page 1.
Fast Ethernet™ in half-duplex mode requires attention to the 512-bit Rule
(See page 7).
TRANSITION Networks SSETF10xx-200
series Ethernet™ and Fast Ethernet™
Media Converters connect 10Base-T or
100Base TX shielded or unshielded
twisted-pair copper cable to 10Base-FL or
100Base-SX fiber-optic cable.
LinkAlert
The SSETF10xx-200 series Media Converter LinkAlert™ feature allows the
Media Converter to pass 10Base-T/100Base-TX-side link faults over the link to
the 10Base-T/100Base-SX side and to pass 10Base-FL/100Base-SX-side link
faults over the link to the 10Base-FL/100Base-TX side.
If the SSETF10xx-200 Media Converter does not detect a good link on the
10Base-T/100Base-TX side, the Media Converter disables all transmission
(including active-idle) on the 10Base-FL/100Base-SX side.

AutoCross*
The AutoCross™ feature allows either straight-through (MDI) or crossover
(MDI-X) cables to be used when connecting to 10Base-T or to 100Base-TX
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.

HALF-DUPLEX NETWORK
512-Bit Rule
FAULT ISOLATION and CORRECTION
If the Media Converter fails, isolate and correct the fault by determining the
answers to the following questions and then taking the indicated action:
In a half-duplex network, the maximum cable lengths are determined by the
round trip delay limitations of each Fast Ethernet™ collision domain. (A
collision domain is the longest path between any two terminal devices, e.g. a
terminal, switch, or router.)
1.
Is the P(o)W(e)R LED on the Media Converter illuminated?
NO
•
Is the power adapter the proper type of voltage and cycle frequency
for AC outlet?
The 512-Bit Rule determines the maximum length of cable permitted by
calculating the round-trip delay in bit-times (BT) of a particular collision
domain. If the result is less than or equal to 512 BT, the path is good.
•
Is the power adapter properly installed in the Media Converter and in
the outlet?
•
•
Does the grounded AC outlet provide power?
Contact Technical Support: US/Canada: 1-800-260-1312,
International: 00-1-952-941-7600.
To calculate the round-trip delay for a collision domain:
1. Find the collision domain, i.e. the longest

path between any two terminal devices
(e.g., terminal, switch, and/or router).
2. Calculate the round-trip delay in bit-times
for each length of cable.
4. Determine the bit-time values for each
device (see table to the right).
Proceed to step 2.

3. Add the bit-time values for each length of
cable and the bit-times for each device.
YES
•
Proceed to step 3.
NOTE: The 512-Bit Rule applies separately to each collision domain.
Is the LKF LED illuminated?
NO
The example below illustrates a collision domain bound by a router on one
end and a terminal on the other.
•
•
Check the fiber cables for proper connection.
Verify that the TX and RX cables on the Media Converter are
connected to the RX and TX ports, respectively, on the other device.

The Media Converter has selected 10 Mb/s operation. If this is not the
correct speed, disconnect and reconnect the 10/100Base-TX cable to
restart the initialization process.
Since the total of the bit-times in this example is less than 512 (see chart
below), the path is good.
•
Proceed to step 5.
YES - SLOWLY FLASHING
•
Sum of the bit-times for the example collision domain:
The Media Converter is selecting between 10 Mb/s and 100 Mb/s
speed or one or both of the links is down. If persistent, disconnect
and reconnect either cable to restart the initialization process.
