About the IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP
IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP is an SNMP-Manageable module that
converts standard TDM-based copper transports (T1, E1, J1) to a single-mode or
multi-mode fiber signal. It performs a standard “Line Termination” function as
defined in GR-820-CORE. This function transmits an Alarm Indication Signal (AIS)
on the line whenever the received signal is lost. Line faults can easily be isolated
to one line section and do not propagate over multiple-line sections as they do
with normal line repeaters.
Each module includes one RJ-48 connector, one pair of ST or SC fiber optic
connectors or an SFP port, which can support any fiber type at 155Mbps; dual
strand available in LC connectors, and Single Strand Fiber SFPs available in SC
connectors. IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP modules install into any
modular, SNMP manageable iMediaChassis, as well as the MediaChassis series,
which is unmanaged. The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP offers an extended
temperature range of -40°C to +85°C; when installed in an IE-MediaChassis/1 or
2, available in AC and DC, the module can be installed in challenging heat or
cold-related environments.
An IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP with SFP Module with Configuration
Control, configured as a Host, allows an SNMP Management Module in a
managed chassis to manage the Remote. All settings are enabled and enforced
through the SNMP. The Host keeps a copy of the Remote’s configuration
settings. Each module offers the feature Configuration Control; please refer to the
appropriate section.
When the Host unit is not in a managed chassis, the Host configures the Remote.
This ensures that the Remote’s configuration will not revert to its DIP Switch
settings and potentially disrupt traffic. However, if the user changes the DIP
Switch settings on the Remote, the new configuration of the Remote will be
enabled.
When SNMP management is installed at the Host, the following functions at the
Remote are controlled from the Host unit:
• Loopback
• Line Code
• Transmit Data Source
NOTE
Unless noted otherwise, any reference is applicable for both the 1x9 and SFP version
of the IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm in this manual.
