Operation Manual

FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The use of non-shielded I/O cables may not guarantee compliance with FCC RFI limits. This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulation of the Canadian Department of Communications. Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant les limites applicables aux appareils numériques de classe A prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

About the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP

NOTE

Unless noted otherwise, all references to the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP in this manual are also applicable to the iMcV-Gigabit TX/FX.

The SNMP manageable IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Module provides a single conversion between 1000 Base-T twisted pair and 1000 Base-SX/LX fiber. Each IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP includes one RJ-45 connector and one pair of SC fiber optic connectors, and/or an SFP port, which can support any fiber type; dual strand available in LC connectors, and Single Strand Fiber SFPs available in SC connectors. IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules install into any modular, SNMP manageable iMediaChassis, as well as the MediaChassis series, which is unmanaged. The IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP offers an extended temperature range of -40C to +85C; when installed in an IE-MediaChassis/1 or 2, available in AC and DC, the module can be installed in challenging heat or cold-related environments.

NOTE

ll IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules, including 1300 nm multi-mode and 1310 nm singlemode (TX/LX), 850 nm multi-mode fiber (TX/SX) and single-strand versions (TX/SSLX) will be referred to as IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP throughout this guide except where differences need to be indicated.

Installing an iMcV-Module

iMcV-Modules install in IMC Networks’ SNMP manageable iMediaChassis series or in any MediaChassis.

To install an iMcV-Module:

Remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be

1. installed by removing the screws on the outside edges of the bracket.

Slide the iMcV-Module into the chassis, via the cardguides, until the module is seated securely in the connector. Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw.

Save any “blanks” removed during installation for future use if the configuration requirements change.

Configuration Instructions

IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules have user-configurable features. Refer to the matrix for configuring both managed (via an SNMP compatible management application such as iView²) and unmanaged IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules.

Managed Modules

To manage one or more IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules, an SNMP agent must be present in the chassis: To configure Managed Modules, install the module first, and then configure using the management software.

Configuration Control

Some iMcV-Modules offer Configuration Control; labels on the front faceplate are identified as such. Configuration Control has been implemented to assist the end user by retaining the latest configuration regardless of how that configuration was implemented (via DIP Switch settings or SNMP).

Historically, SNMP would override DIP Switch settings. If changes are made via DIP Switch settings, then hardware settings determine the configuration of the

board. If changes are made to the module via iView

, the SNMP settings

determine the configuration of the board.

Utilizing Configuration Control, the end user has three conditions under which the configuration of the iMcV-Module may be impacted:

 Installing an IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP into a chassis already loaded with iMcV-

Modules or replacing an IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP

The iMcV-Module will transfer its saved configurations. The IE-iMcVGigabit TX/SFP will not override the module’s configuration.

 Replacing the same type of iMcV-Module

If the DIP Switch settings are the same as the settings on the removed iMcV-Module, the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP determines the configuration settings.

If the DIP Switch settings are different, then the configuration of the module is determined by the DIP Switch settings. (The settings are forwarded to the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP and the value is saved.)

 Installing a new model of iMcV-Module

If another type of module is installed into the same slot in a chassis, the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP clears the memory of the previous configuration

for that slot; the settings of a new module are adopted and stored in the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP

The SNMP Write Lock switch does not impact any iMcV-Module or IE-iMcVModule with Configuration Control. Removing and installing a new SNMP Management Module will no longer impact these modules either. However, if there is a mixture of iMcV-Modules with and without Configuration Control, the Write Lock Switch and a new SNMP Management Module must be taken into consideration.

If the command cleandb is applied to an SNMP Management Module, all the settings for the modules will be removed, but the Configuration Control modules will still be based on the last change made, while those without Configuration Control will be set to their default settings.

NOTE

If the end user has a mixture of standard iMcV-Modules as well as Configuration Control iMcV-Modules, it is important to understand how SNMP and DIP Switches will impact the cards depending on their capability. Standard iMcV-Modules cannot be upgraded to Configuration Control capability, so it is strongly recommended to set the DIP Switches on the modules and then configure them via software to match the same settings.

Unmanaged Modules

Before installing, configure the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Module for desired features. The diagram indicates the available features and settings for the module. After configuring the switch for the desired settings, install the module and connect the appropriate cables. For further information, refer to the Installing an iMcV-Module section.
