Omnitron Systems Technology iConverter 2GXM - Manual

iConverter 2GXM Standalone Module QUICK START GUIDE
The Omnitron iConverter ® 2GXM media
converter and Network Interface Device (NID)
with integrated management provides Gigabit
Ethernet (1000BASE-X) fiber-to-fiber media
conversion.
The 2GXM conforms to Ethernet in the First
Mile (EFM) fiber standards to support Fiber-
to-the-X (FTTX) Metropolitan and Enterprise
LAN networks. Built-in Operation,
Administration and Maintenance (OAM)
functionality enables the 2GXM to operate as
a managed demarcation point at the customer premises and network edge, offering
Quality of Service capability.
The 2GXM can be managed using Omnitron’s NetOutlook TM SNMP Management
Software, 3rd Party SNMP Client, Telnet or the Command Line Interface (CLI).

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1) Configure DIP-Switches
2) Install Standalone Module and Connect Cables
3) Configure Module via Command Line Interface
4) Verify Operation
1) CONFIGURE DIP-SWITCHES
DIP-SWITCH BANK 1
SW1, SW2 - AUTO/MANUAL NEGOTIATION “AN/MAN”
When the DIP-switch is in the DOWN Auto-Negotiate “AN” position (factory default),
t h e P o r t a u t o m a t i c a l l y
determine the duplex and
pa u s e m o d e s o f t h e
c o n n e c t i n g f i b e r o p t i c
devices. If the connecting
fiber optic devices cannot
provide the proper signal to
indicate their own mode of
operation, the DIP-switch
should be set to the UP
Manual “MAN” position.
See Figure B on page 2 for more information.
NOTE: When Port 1 operates in Auto-Negotiation mode, the port advertises for
Pause. When the Fiber optic ports (Port 1 and Port 2) operates in Manual mode,
Pause is disabled.

The CLI interface allows for the detailed configuration of the module. It is recommended
to configure the module with an IP address associated with the attached network.
Also, SNMP traphost address should be configured if the module is managed with an
SNMP-based Management System. See the 2GXM User Manual for complete
information.
4) VERIFY OPERATION
Once the module has been installed and configured per steps 1 - 3, verify the module
is operational by viewing the LED indicators.
The Power LED indicates the module is receiving power.
The Fiber Optic link LEDs indicate the fiber optic connections have been established.
Verify the Link Mode selection is set to Link Segment (LS). Until a stable link is
established, leave the Link Mode configured for LS. After a Link presence is established,
the Link Mode selection can be modified.
