AS4TEF10xx-10x
Stand-Alone Media Converter
• RS-232 to Fiber
• (4) T1/E1 to Fiber
The AS4TEF10xx-10x media converter can
extend signals from an RS-232 data port and
up to four (4) T1/E1 network ports over fiber.
The RS-232 and T1/E1 interfaces are independent of each other and the signals
from these ports can be sent over the fiber interface simultaneously.
The AS4TEF10xx-10x is designed to be installed in pairs. For example, install one
S4TEF1011-100 as the local media converter and another S4TEF1011-100 as the
remote media converter.
All S4TEF10xx-10x models have the following copper connectors:
The various fiber connectors are available on separate models. Both duplex and
single mode fiber optic converters are available:
