Chapter 1 Overview The AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Gigabit Ethernet Media Converters are designed to extend the distance of your network by converting Gigabit Ethernet data between twisted pair cabling and either multimode or singlemode fiber optic cabling. The AT-MC1004 media converter features a 1000Base-SX fiber optic port and a 1000Base-T twisted pair port. The fiber optic port has an SC connector and a maximum operating distance of 550 meters (1,804 feet).

AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Installation Guide Key Features The media converters have the following key features: ❑ LEDs for unit and port status ❑ 1000Base twisted pair port with a maximum operating distance of 100 meters (328 feet) ❑ 1000Base fiber optic port with a maximum operating distance of 550 meters (1,804 feet) to 70 kilometers (43.
Overview Fiber Optic Port The 1000Base-SX port on the AT-MC1004 media converter has an SC connector and is designed to operate with multimode fiber optic cabling. This port has a maximum operating distance of 550 meters (1,804 feet) using 62.5/ 125 micron multimode fiber optic cable. The 1000Base-LX port on the AT-MC1005/x Series Media Converters has an SC connector and is designed to operate with single-mode fiber optic cabling. This port has a maximum operating distance of 10 kilometers (6.
AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Installation Guide For example, if the network twisted pair cable to the 1000Base-T port on the media converter were to fail, the unit would respond by dropping the link on the fiber optic port. In this way, the media converter notifies the end-node connected to the fiber optic port that the connection on the twisted pair port has been lost. If the failure had started with the fiber optic cabling, the unit would drop the link to the twisted pair port.
Overview Half- and Full-Duplex Mode Duplex mode refers to the way an end-node sends and receives data on the network. An end-node can operate in either half- or full-duplex mode, depending on its capabilities. An end-node that is operating in half-duplex mode can either send data or receive data, but it cannot do both at the same time. An end-node that is operating in full-duplex mode can send and receive data simultaneously.
AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Installation Guide Network Topologies The AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Gigabit Ethernet Media Converters can be used in two different network topologies: standalone and back-to-back. These network topologies are described below. Standalone Topology A standalone topology uses only one media converter between the end-nodes. Figure 4 illustrates a standalone topology that uses two AT-MC1005/1 media converters to interconnect three remote campuses.
Overview Back-to-Back Topology In some network configurations you may want to interconnect two media converters in what is referred to as a back-to-back topology. In this topology, the media converters not only extend the distance of your network but also convert the fiber optic cable from twisted pair to fiber optic and back again. Figure 5 illustrates one AT-8216FXL/MT switch with an AT-A14 expansion module at each campus. The switches are interconnected by two AT-MC1005/3 media converters.

AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Installation Guide Reviewing Safety Guidelines Please review the following safety guidelines before you begin to install the media converter. Warning Class 1 laser device. 6 Warning Do not stare into the laser beam. 7 Warning Electric Shock Hazard: To prevent electric shock, do not remove the cover. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. The unit contains hazardous voltages and should only be opened by a trained and qualified technician.
Installing the Media Converter Installing the Media Converter The following procedure explains how to install the media converter in your network. Note When two media converters are connected back-to-back with no twisted pair cables connected, the LNK LEDs on the fiber port may flash. This is normal and will not affect the normal operation of the units. Refer to Figure 5 on page 8 for an example of a back-to-back topology. To install the unit, perform the following procedure: 1.
AT-MC1004 and AT-MC1005/x Series Installation Guide 5. Plug the AC/DC power adapter into an appropriate AC power outlet and insert the power plug into the DC receptacle located on the back of the unit. This step does not apply if you installed the unit in an AT-MCR12 chassis. Power Plug DC Receptacle 12 V D C Back of Media Converter AC/DC Power Adapter Figure 7 DC Connector 6. Verify that the PWR LED is green. If the LED is OFF, refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 15 for instructions. 7.
Installing the Media Converter Warranty Registration When you finish installing the product, you should register your product by completing the enclosed warranty card and sending it in.
Chapter 3 Troubleshooting Follow the guidelines below to test and troubleshoot the installation in the event a problem occurs. If the PWR LED is OFF, do the following: ❑ If the media converter is installed on a desktop, check to be sure that the power adapter is securely connected to a power outlet and that the power adapter cable is securely connected to the back of the media converter. ❑ If the media converter is installed in an AT-MCR12 chassis, check that the unit is fully seated in the slot.
Troubleshooting If the LNK LED for the fiber optic port is OFF, do the following: ❑ Verify that the end-node connected to the port is ON and is operating properly. ❑ Check that the fiber optic cable is securely connected to the fiber optic port on the media converter and on the remote end-node. ❑ Check to be sure that the end-node connected to the port is operating at 1000 Mbps. ❑ Make sure that the fiber optic port on the remote end-node is operating in full-duplex.
