Operation
Status LEDs
Use the status LEDs to monitor SGFEB operations.
PWR (Power): On = Power is provided to the SGFEB.
Fiber Status LEDs
The status LEDs for the 1000Base-SX/LX fiber connection (labeled LACT and DUP) are located under
the fiber port (Port 1 and Port 3).
LACT: On (contiuously lit) means a link has been established for the fiber connection.
Flashing means that the fiber connection is tranmistting or receiving data.
DUP: On (contiuously lit) means Full Duplex (FDX); Off means Half duplex (HDX). Note: Half duplex is
only an option in SFP versions of this converter. If Half duplex on the fiber port is desired, it is configured
by DIP switches #5and #6 on the 6-position DIP switch.
Copper Status LEDs
The status LEDs for the copper connection (port 2 and Port 4) are integrated into the RJ-45 port.
These LEDs are not labeled.
TP Link / Activity / Duplex LED (upper left)
Amber: A link in half-duplex mode has been established for the copper connection.
Flashing Amber: The copper connection is transmitting or receiving data in half-duplex mode.
Green: A link in full-duplex mode has been established for the copper connection.
Flashing Green: The copper connection is transmitting or receiving data in full-duplex mode.
Speed LED (upper right)
Off: 10 Mbps operation.
Amber: 100 Mbps operation.
Green: 1000 Mbps operation.

Product Features
Auto-Negotiation
The Auto-Negotiation feature allows the SGFEB10xx to automatically configure itself to achieve the best
possible mode of operation over a link. The media converter broadcasts its speed (10 Mb/s, 100 Mb/s, or
1000 Mb/s) and duplex capabilities (full or half) to the other devices and negotiates the best mode of
operation. Auto-Negotiation allows quick and easy installation because the optimal link is established
automatically. No user intervention is required to determine the best mode of operation.
A scenario where the media converter is linked to a non-negotiating device is a case where the user may
want to disable Auto-Negotiation. In this instance, the mode of operation will drop to the least common
denominator between the two devices (e.g. 100 Mb/s, half-duplex). Disabling this feature gives the user
the ability to force the connection to the best mode of operation.
Note: The SGFEB10xx-13x supports 1000 Mbps fiber Auto-Negotiation.
Link Pass-Through (LPT)
The Link Pass-Through feature 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 (1), the media converter will
automatically disable the TX (transmit) signal (2), thus, “passing through” the link loss (3). The far-end
device is automatically notified of the link loss (4), which prevents the loss of valuable data unknowingly
being transmitted over an invalid link. Note that LPT is an option on 2 port versions.
The LPT firmware algorithm will detect both fiber and Cu RX link loss; the link transmitter is disabled to
propagate loss indication. Link Pass Through is a troubleshooting feature that allows the media converter
to monitor both the fiber and copper RX ports for loss of signal. In the event of a loss of RX signal on one
media port, the converter will automatically disable the TX signal of the other media port, thus "passing
through" the link loss.
Full-Duplex Network
In a full-duplex network, maximum cable lengths are determined by the type of cables that are used.
See pages 3 and 4 for the cable specifications for the different SGFEB models. The 512-Bit Rule does
not apply in a full-duplex network.
Half-Duplex Network (512-Bit Rule)
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.) 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. For more information on the 512-Bit Rule, see the white
paper titled “Collision Domains” on the Transition Networks website at: www.transition.com.

Transition Networks SGFEB 10/100/1000 Bridging Media Converter User Guide
33601 Rev. D www.transition.com Page 13 of 25
AutoCross™
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.
Automatic Link Restoration
The SGFEB will automatically restore the link between networked devices after a fault condition has been
corrected. In contrast, products from competitors generally require the user to power down, then power
up the converters after a fault condition has been corrected.
Far End Fault (FEF)
The FEF feature applies to IEEE 802.3u 100Mbit Cu/Fiber rate only. The MAC may use FEF when Auto
negotiation is disabled. When the MAC detects a PHY fault/TX loss link, a FEFI idle pattern is sent to the
link partner TX (100BASE-FX only).
Remote Fault Detect (RFD)
The RFD feature applies to 1000Mbps operation only. Remote Fault Detect (RFD) is a troubleshooting
feature found on GigEthernet copper-to-fiber media converters. By enabling RFD on the remotely located
media converter, the status of the fiber link will be monitored and any link failures will be reported back to
the local converter. Should the remote converter lose its fiber RX signal, RFD will force the converter to
shut down its fiber TX port. If Link Pass Though is enabled on both ends, then the copper ports will also
be shut down to notify both end devices of the link failure.
Fiber Redundancy (Revertive / Non-revertive)
Multiport versions provide 3 or 4 port switch functionality or provide redundant fiber links, with a
switchover (failover) time of less than 1 second. In Revertive mode, after the failed link is recovered, it
becomes the active link again (reverts to the failed link). In Non-revertive mode, after the failed link is
recovered, the failed link does not become active again. The 4 port version does not support Fiber
Redundancy mode but does support port isolation.
New Features
1. Jumbo 10K frame support
2. 8k MAC addresses (vs 1k)
3. EEE 802.3az
4. Multi-port mode default for multiple SFP assemblies.

Port Isolation
The SGFEB -230 and -330 support Port Isolation. This function uses Port Isolation (Port Based VLAN) to
disable the data paths between ports. This allows two customer-facing fiber ports and prevents each
customer from seeing the other’s traffic.
The Port Isolation (Port Based VLAN) feature creates a PVLAN (Private Virtual Local Area Network), but
it does not use 802.1Q tags. The current Port Based VLAN implementation only forwards traffic to ports in
a specific port’s VLAN Table. Tagged and untagged traffic will move through the SGFEB unmodified.
Port isolation setup varies between models as shown and described below.
Port Isolation on 3-Port Models
Port Isolation on 3-port devices sets up a port-based VLAN between the TP port and each Fiber port as
shown below.

Port Isolation on 4-Port Models
Port Isolation on 4 port devices sets up a private VLAN between ports 1 and 2, and a second Port Based
VLAN between ports 3 and 4 (like having two independent converters).

Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
Energy efficient Ethernet can significantly reduce the power consumption of the device over a period of
time especially when there is a large amount of idle signals on the copper port. IEEE standard 802.3az
which implements a Low Power Idle mode on copper interfaces with internal PHYs. SGFEB TP Ports
have the EEE Low Power Idle mode enabled. Note that the Link LED remains lit when in low power
mode. You can disable the 802.3az EEE function with a 2-pin header and a jumper (J13) on the board.
The SGFEB ships with EEE enabled; Jumper J13 has the jumper (shorting plug) uninstalled. Contact TN
Tech Support to obtain the two-position jumper TN6907 if you want to disable EEE.
The amount of delay experienced while waiting for the copper interfaces to wake up and come out of low
power idle mode is determined by the speed of the port:
Delay = ASSERT TIME + WAKE TIME
For 1000 Base, delay = 0 + 17us = 17us. For 100 Base, delay = 0 + 30us = 30us.
EEE Low Power Idle mode requires the copper port to advertise via the auto negotiation registers the
ability to support EEE for both 1000Base-T and 100Base-T. Both local and remote ports must indicate
they can support low power idle mode before the port can initiate a low power idle state.
During Auto –Negotiation the Port EEE capabilities are exchanged using the next page process to
establish the speed and duplex information. Timer information with regards to tx_idle, assert and wake
cycles are set in SGFEB registers by the CPU. When a port egress queue remains empty for a specific
period of time set by the EEE TX_IDLE Timer register, then a low power state can be entered. The
default setting for the TX_IDLE is 2 milliseconds.
After the TX_IDLE time the PHY will start the assert timer. The Assert timer will require the SGFEB to wait
until the assert timer is zero before a wake up request can be processed. Currently the default Assert
timer is set to 0, giving the PHY the ability to immediately start processing a request to leave the low
power idle state. The PHY then enters low power idle mode. This mode is defined by a 22.35mili-seconds
quiet period followed by a 210us refresh pulse. Then once a port sends a packet and the egress queue is
no longer empty a wake up period is needed for the PHY to return to full operation. The default wake
times are set to 17 micro-seconds for 1000Base and 30 micro-seconds for 100Base. During this wakeup
time the packet will continue to buffer in the egress queue until the wake up timer has completed at this
point port traffic will begin to flow as normal.
The SGFEB can also support a reduced power mode for 10Base-T in which it modifies the copper media
transmit waveform to achieve power consumption savings.
