Installation -- Continued

Install the copper cable

1.Locate or build twisted-pair copper cables that are compliant with the specifications on page 11 with RJ-45 connectors at both ends.

2.Ensure that the MDI/MDI-X switch is set according to the network conditions (see page 3).

3.Connect the RJ-45 connector at one end of cable to the RJ-45 port on the device.

4.Connect the RJ-45 connector at the other end of the cable to the RJ-45 port on the other device (switch, workstation, etc.).

Install the fiber cable

1.	Locate or build fiber cables with male, two-stranded TX to RX connectors
	installed at both ends.
2.	Connect the fiber cables to the local SSDTF10xx-10xDevice as described:
	•	Connect the male TX cable connector to the female TX port.
	•	Connect the male RX cable connector to the female RX port.
3.	Connect the fiber cables to the remote SSDTF10xx-10xDevice as described:

Power the device

Note: The external power supply provided with this product is UL listed by the power supply’s manufacturer.

1.Install the power adapter cord to the back of the device.

2.Connect the power adapter plug to AC power.

3.Verify that the device is powered by observing the illuminated LED power indicator light.

For DC power, consult the user’s guide for the Transition Networks SPS1872-xx DC external power supply for powering the device.

Operation

After installation, the device should function without operator intervention. Use the status LEDs to monitor the device operation in the network.

SDC (Signal Detect/Copper)					ON = the twisted-pair copper link is up.
SDF (Signal Detect/Fiber)					ON = the fiber link is up.
PWR (Power)					ON = the device is connected to external
					power.

Dry-contact relay

The RJ-45 copper port has a dry-contact relay that opens if the power, signal detect/copper, or signal detect/fiber are lost. The operational rating on pins 3 and 6 are 0-30 VDC, 100 mA (maximum).

Remote management function

A remote, stand-alone device (revision SSDTF10xx-105 or higher) can be managed when connected to a local CSDTF10xx-105 Device. Please note that in a managed network, both the local and remote Devices must be set to “software” mode (see page 3). For more information, see the SNMP section in the CSDTF10xx-10x manual online at: www.transition.com
