Prerequisites
The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP conforms to any T1/E1/J1-based
environment. Ensure all of the relevant information about the expected
installation environment is available before configuring the module. This
information includes:
Line Type T1 or E1
Line Coding used on T1: either AMI or B8ZS
Distance of the copper run for DSX1 lines (655 feet MAX)
Required CSU line Buildout (0db to -22db)
Receiver BOOST for T1 and E1 applications
Fiber transceivers must be for appropriate fiber run, i.e. (SM or MM)
Management location must be at HOST unit
Managed Modules
The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP modules are installed as a HOST-
REMOTE pair and can be remotely managed when the HOST is installed in an
iMediaChassis with an SNMP Management module.
For a managed environment, first manually configure the desired features
through DIP Switch settings to ensure this configuration is maintained if
management is ever lost. After the module is installed, the SNMP enabled
features for troubleshooting can be modified by using the included iView
2
SNMP
management software. Ensure the software settings match the desired
configuration requirements for the installation as the chassis may maintain an old
setting from a previous installation for that slot location. Module Details will
provide information such as serial number, date code and part number. Please
download the current SNMP firmware and iView
2
software to ensure all
functionality of the modules.
NOTE
If installing an IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, available in a fixed fiber transceiver model
(series 850-141XX), as a Host and an IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm with SFP and
Configuration Control (850-18100) as a Remote, connectivity will be established and data
will pass. However, there is no possibility of obtaining DDMI information of the SFP from
the Remote end, since the Host is not capable of it. If the Host and the Remote units are
both IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm with SFP and Configuration Control, then the Host can
extract DDMI information from the SFP at the Remote end.
