Introduction
Transition Networks’ two-port C4110 series 10 Gbps Fiber-to-F i ber Conv er ter is des igned to ins ta ll in an
ION chassis. The ION x4110 is a 10 Gbps fiber-to-fiber port converter with two SFP+ slots that performs
full 3R (re-amplify, re-shape, and re-timing) signal regeneration. It can be used all alone or it can be
connected to another x4110, providing fiber-to-fiber conversion in the following user networks:
• 10G LAN, 10G WAN
• 10G Fiber Channel
• SONET OC192
• 10G OTN (G.709)
The C4110 can be used in telecom and enterprise applications where 10 Gbps links require fiber
extension or where 10 Gbps links require an interface between two different types of fiber. The C4110
performs a wide variety of protocol transparent service; it supports virtually any protocol from 1 Gbps to
11.5 Gbps:
• 10G LAN (10.3125 Gbps) / WAN (9.95 Gbps)
• SONET OC-192/SDH ST M-64 at 9.95 Gbps
• 10G Fiber Channel at 10.52 Gbps
• 1/2/4/8 Gbps Fiber channel
• OTU2 at 10.709 Gbps
• OTU1e at 11.05 Gbps
• OTU1f at 11.27 Gbps
• OTU2e at 11.09 Gbps
• OTU2f at 11.32 Gbps
• SONET OC-48/SDH ST M-16 at 2.40 Gbps
• Legacy 1G Ethernet at 1.25 Gbps
• Any other rate in the range of 1 - 11.5 Gbps
Models
The C4110 is an ION chassis slide-in-card (SIC). The S4110 is an ION Stand-alone device.
The S4110 is used as a stand-alone device or as a remote device when linked back to a managed
chassis card.
The C4110 SIC card can be managed by ION Web, ION CLI, or Focal Point 3.0. The S4110 can not be
remotely managed.
Manageable C4110 features are available when used in an ION Platform chassis along with an ION
Management Module (IONMM). The x4110 is delivered with a default configuration. You can change the
configuration via the ION Web interface, Focal Point 3.0, and the ION CLI.
Model
Note that the C4110 (ION Chassis Card) can be upgraded from the IONMM. The S4110 (Standalone
model) can not be upgraded from the IONMM.

The C4110 provides up to 10Gig fiber-to-fiber port repeating and performs 3R (re-amplify, reshape) signal
regeneration. The figures below show how x4110 devices can be used in pairs (scenarios A,B,C below)
or used as single repeater in a customer network (scenarios D & E below); It can also interconnect with
an x4110-1048 (scenario F).

Pre-Installation
Safety
Before installing the C4110, read the “Electrical Safety Warnings” on page 32 of this manual and ensure
that the requirements noted are met. During installation and maintenance, avoid direct exposure to laser
beams. Specifically, do not look into laser ports. Ensure that each SFP/SFP+ port at which laser beams
are (or will be) present is occupied by an SFP/SFP+ that is locked in position. See the related SFP/SFP+
manual for details. See "Electrical Safety Warnings" on page 32 for Electrical Safety Warnings translated
into multiple languages.
Unpacking
1. Carefully unpack all C4110 contents.
2. Verify receipt of all C4110 components; see “Ship Kit Contents” below.
3. Place the C4110 and related materials in the desired install location.
4. Save the C4110 shipping carton and packing materials for future use.
Ship Kit Contents

DIP Switch (SW1) and Jumper (J9)
The C4110 has a field-configurable DIP Switch (SW1) and Jumper (J9) as shown below.
Figure 4. Jumper J9 and DIP Switch SW1
Hardware/Software Mode Jumper (J9)
The hardware/software 3-pin header, J9, is located on the circuit board
(labeled S and H). Use a small needle-nose pliers to set the jumper.
S - Software In this position, the mode of the C4110 is deter mined by the
most-recently saved software settings. This is the default
setting.
H - Hardware In this position, the mode of the C4110 is deter mined by the
8-position DIP switch (hardware) settings.
Note: you must change the J9 setting to H (Hardware mode) to be able to use the DIP Switch settings
(see below).

Installation and Setup
General
This section describes how to install the C4110 and the procedures to access and initially set it up via
either a local serial interface (USB) or a remote Ethernet connection (Telnet session or Web interface).
Install the C4110 in the ION Chas sis
The C4110 is a slide-in module that can only be installed in a Transition Networks ION chassis (ION106-x
or ION219-x). For a complete list of ION platform products, go to https://www.transition.com
The following describes how to install the C4110 in the ION chassis.
Caution: Failure to wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions
when installing the C4110 could result in damage or failure of the module.
.
IMPORTANT
The C4110 slide-in cards are “hot swappable” devices, and can be installed with chassis power on.
1. Locate an empty slot in the ION System chassis. If necessary, remove a chassis slot cover from the
ION Chassis (keep the slot cover and screw).
2. Grasp the edges of the C4110 by its front panel, align the card with the upper and lower slot guides,
and carefully insert the C4110 into the slot.
3. Firmly seat the C4110 against the chassis back panel.
4. Push in and rotate clockwise the panel fastener screw to secure the C4110 to the chassis (Figure 5).
5. Note that the card’s Power LED lights. See Accessing the C4110 on page 15.
