1 Product overview
The CONV-SFP-4 is a quad channel SFP converter that utilizes Nevion’s range of video and
GbE SFPs for flexible and cost efficient conversions.
The product can be configured with different hardware options enabling a large range of
electrical/optical conversions as well as signal conversion. All active components are placed
on the module that can be hot-swap replaced from the front. SFPs are hot-swap replaced
from the back. This ensures minimum service down time for upgrades or unit replacement.
The SFPs, module health and signal status is monitored and presented thru web or SNMP
interface with the Multicon control system when installed in the modular Flashlink frames.

limited to, example 1 and example 2 displaying two hardware SFP configurations.
