1. MCS-2160 Overview

1.1. General Descriptions of MCS-2160

MCS-2160 media converter chassis is a

complete and versatile solution for the

applications such as FTTx, CWDM, and

carrier Ethernet. By the diversified speeds

of 1,000Mbps and 10G, Xtramus provides

different XC series module cards for

different applications and can be applied according to your ideal network topology.

Combined with XC series module cards, MCS-2160 media converter chassis provide various interfaces

such as UTP, SFP, SFP+ and XFP. All these interfaces are developed to support the protocols such as

100Base-Tx, 100Base-Fx, 1000Base-T, 1000Base-X, 10GBase-T, 10GBase-LR and 10GBase-SR, thus

making your network more complete and solid.

Also, XC series module cards support MIB Counter Report including counters such as Packet, Byte,

Broadcast packet, Pause Frame, Length: 64 Bytes, Length: 65~127 Bytes, Length: 128~255 Bytes,

Length: 256~511 Bytes, Length: 512~1023 Bytes, Length: 1024~1518 Bytes, Unicast packet, Multicast

packet, CRC Error, IP Checksum Error, Under size packet, and Over size packet.

All XC series module cards are equipped with real-time LEDs which display the status of each port, thus

allowing users to view network status easily.

MCS-2160 media converter chassis provides an easy-to-access Management Webpage, allowing users

to view system status, counters, upgrading firmware/FPGA and network statistics. Moreover, XC-CASC

module card allows you to cascade multiple MCS-2160 chassis for managing these chassis at the same

time.

With various interfaces, MCS-2160 provides different conversions between fibers and copper wires in

10G Ethernet.

A. System Module Card – XC-SFAN

The XC-SFAN comes with your MCS-2160 chassis, and shall be installed on the Fan slot located on the

far left side of MCS-2160 chassis. This module card provides ventilation for the MCS-2160 chassis.

Also, XC-SFAN’s CTRL + PWR and PWR ports are designed to provide power source and gather

information for MCS-FANT fan tray. When connecting XC-SFAN to MCS-FANT fan tray, please do so by

connect to MCS-SFAN’s CTRL + PWR port to MCS-FANT’s CTRL + PWR port, and XC-SFAN’s PWR

port to MCS-FANT’s PWR port.

If you cross connect between CTRL + PWR port and PWR port of XC-SFAN and MCS-FANT, MCS-2160

will be seriously damaged.

2. MCS-2160 Installation

MCS-2160 is a chassis with 16 slots for installation of media converter modules. Installing MCS-2160 is

very easy and simple: all you have to do is to plug the proper fiber/UTP cables into MCS-2160 ports like a

general Ethernet switch without any extra configurations. However, selecting the proper physical media

and applications in your network environment is crucial when installing MCS-2160. Besides, using the

proper method for installing media converter modules into MCS-2160’ slots is also crucial for the proper

functionality of MCS-2160. Please see the sections down below for detailed information regarding to

physical media types, MCS-2160 application and the proper method for installing a media converter

module.

2.1. Choices of UTP Cable and Optical fiber

2.1.1. 10GBASE-T (Copper Wire)

10GBASE-T, or IEEE 802.3an-2006, is a standard released in 2006 to provide 10 gigabit/second

connections over unshielded or shielded twisted pair cables and over distances up to 100 meters (330 ft).

10GBASE-T cable infrastructure can also be used for 1000BASE-T, allowing a gradual upgrade from

1000BASE-T, and auto-negotiation to select which speed to use.

10GBASE-T Connectors

10GBASE-T uses 650 MHz versions of the venerable IEC 60603-7 8P8C (RJ-45) connectors, which is

already widely used in Ethernet.

10GBASE-T Cables

10GBASE-T works up to 55 m (180 ft) with existing Category 6 cabling. In order to allow deployment at

the usual 100 m (330 ft), the standard uses a new partitioned Category 6a cable specification, designed

to reduce crosstalk between UTP cables.

The table down below is a reference regarding to UTP cable categories.

UTP Cable Categories References

Cat 5

Cat 5e

Cat 6

Provides performance of up to 100 MHz, and was frequently used on 100 Mbps Ethernet
networks. Cat 5 may not be suitable for 1000BASE-T gigabit Ethernet.
Provides performance of up to 100 MHz, and is frequently used for both 100 Mbps and
Gigabit Ethernet networks.
Provides performance of up to 250 MHz, more than double of category 5 and 5e. It works up
to 55 m (180 ft) for 10Gbps Ethernet.

Provides performance of up to 500 MHz. It is suitable for
10GBASE-T and works up to 100 m (330 ft) for 10Gbps

Cat 6a

Ethernet. All the cables mentioned above do not have
individually- shielded pairs as the picture here, including
Cat 6a.

This standard specifies four individually-shielded pairs (STP) inside an overall shield.

Cat 7

Designed for transmission at frequencies up to 600 MHz. It has better performance than Cat
6a.

2.1.2. 10GBASE-R (Optical Fiber)

10GBASE-R is 10Gbps Ethernet connection that based on IEEE802.3ae. It uses fiber as transmission

media with different specification of fiber, connector and transceiver. MCS-2160 uses two standards,

10GBASE-LR and 10GBASE-SR.

10GBASE-SR

10GBASE-SR ("Short Range") uses 64B/66B encoding and 850 nm wavelength lasers. It is designed to

support short distances over deployed multi-mode fiber cabling, it has a range of between 26 meters (85

ft) and 82 meters (270 ft) depending on cable type. It also supports 300 meters (980 ft) operation over

new, 50 µm 2000 MHz⋅km OM3 multi-mode fiber (MMF).

The transmitter can be implemented with a VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) which is low

cost and low power. MMF has the advantage of having lower cost connectors than SMF (single-mode

fiber) due to its wider core.

10GBASE-SR delivers the lowest cost, lowest power and smallest form factor optical modules.

10GBASE-LR

10GBASE-LR ("Long Range") is a Long Range Optical technology delivering serialized 10 gigabit

Ethernet over a laser with 1310 nm wavelength connection on single-mode fiber via IEEE 802.3 Clause

49 64B-66B Physical Coding Sub layer (PCS) using a line rate of 10.3125.

Single-mode optical cabling is used to interconnect transceivers at a distance spaced at 10 kilometers

(6.2 mi), but it can often reach distances of up to 25 kilometers (16 mi) with no data loss.

Fabry–Pérot lasers are commonly used in 10GBASE-LR optical modules. Fabry–Pérot lasers are more

expensive than VCSELs (mentioned above) but their high power and focused beam allow efficient

coupling into the small core of single mode fiber.

Fiber Specification

Fibers which support many propagation paths or transverse modes are called multi-mode fibers (MMF).

Fibers which can only support a single mode are called single-mode fibers (SMF). Multi-mode fibers

generally have a larger core diameter, and are used for short-distance communication links and for

applications where high power must be transmitted. Single-mode fibers are used for most

communication links longer than 200 meters.

Fiber Buffer/Jacket Color Meaning

Yellow Single-mode optical fiber, long distance connection

XTRAMUS TECHNOLOGIES®

Orange Multi-mode optical fiber, short distance connection

28

E-mail: [e-mail]

Website: www.Xtramus.com

Optical Fiber

As mentioned above, there are Single-mode and Multi-mode optical fiber. Both of them can be used for

XC media converter module series.

Fiber Connector

Optical fiber connector contains two ends of fibers and can attach

to SFP+ transceivers. There are two ports for one SFP+

transceiver: one fiber is for receiving and one fiber is for

transmitting. The picture here is called LC connector that can

attach to SFP+ transceiver.

Transceiver (Connector)

SFP+/XFP Transceivers can be plugged into XC media converter module’s

SFP+/XFP Ports. SFP+/XFP Transceivers are active components that

consume power from XC media converter module and are capable of

converting signals between optical data flow and electronic data flow.

For different transmission purpose, the component inside SFP+ form factor can

be 10BASE-LR or 10BAST-SR mode.
