Operation Manual
FCC Radio Frequency Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B 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
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 B
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 B
prescrites dans le Règlement sur le brouillage radioélectrique publié par le ministère des Communications du Canada.

About the iMcV-MediaLinX
A
The SNMP manageable iMcV-MediaLinX module provides a single conversion between 10/100 Base-T twisted pair and 100 Base-SX/FX fiber. Each iMcV­MediaLinX includes one RJ-45 connector and one pair of ST or SC fiber optic connectors. iMcV-MediaLinX modules install into any modular, SNMP manageable iMediaChassis, as well as the MediaChassis series, which is unmanaged.
The iMcV-MediaLinX is also available in a single-strand fiber version that allows two wavelengths to share one fiber strand—Full-Duplex data travels on different wavelengths; for example 1310 nm and 1550 nm—doubling the capacity of fiber. Also, one RJ-45 connector and one ST or SC fiber connector are included.
NOTE
ll iMcV-MediaLinX modules, including 1300 nm multi-mode and 1310 nm single-mode (TX/FX), 850 nm multi-mode fiber (TX/SX) and single-strand versions (TX/SSFX) will be referred to as iMcV-MediaLinX throughout this guide except where differences need to be indicated.
Configuration Instructions
iMcV-MediaLinX modules have user-configurable features. Refer to the matrix for configuring both managed (via an SNMP compatible management application such as iView²) or the DIP Switch configuration table for unmanaged iMcV-MediaLinX modules.
Installing an iMcV Module
iMcV Modules install in IMC Networks’ SNMP manageable iMediaChassis series or in any MediaChassis.
To install an iMcV Module:
1.
Remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be installed by removing the screws on the outside edges of the bracket.
2.
Slide the iMcV Module into the chassis, via the cardguides, until the module is seated securely in the connector.
3.
Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw.
Save any “blanks” removed during installation for future use if the configuration
4. requirements change.
NOTE
All modules are hot-swappable

Managed Modules
To manage one or more iMcV-MediaLinX Modules, an SNMP agent must be present in the chassis: The iMediaChassis series requires an SNMP Management Module. To configure Managed Modules, install the module first, and then configure using the management software. All fiber type information is now loaded into a NVRAM during manufacturing. This is viewed only via iView² software, within the modules details.
Requirements:
• SNMP Firmware version C2
• iView² 1.8.6 or higher
NOTE
If the module is going to be managed via the software management, configuration settings will override any hardware settings, such as DIP Switches or jumpers.
Unmanaged Modules
Before installing, configure iMcV-MediaLinX Modules for desired features listed in the table below. After configuring the DIP Switches for the desired settings, install the module and connect the appropriate cables. For further information, refer to the Installing an iMcV Module section.

BEST PRACTICES
When possible, it is always a good idea to configure DIP Switches to match software settings.
