ABOUT T H E IE-MULTIWAY
The IE-MultiWay is an SNMP manageable standalone device providing two
fixed 10/100/1000Base-T copper ports and two SFP ports. The SFP ports
support fiber or copper SFPs. As a plug-and play-device, the IE-MultiWay
provides several distinct modes of operation to support a wide range of
applications. The IE-MultiWay provides OAM functionality with 802.3ah (LINK-
OAM ah) and 802.1ag (SERVICE-OAM ag) supported on each port
.
It
supports jumbo frame sizes of up to 10,240 bytes as well as AutoCross on the
copper ports. Power options for the IE-MultiWay include both a standard low
voltage wall transformer and a Power Block for Office Battery or a DC Power
Supply connection. As an Industrial Ethernet device, it supports an extended
temperature range of -40 to +85 °C. A console port and a DIP Switch bay
provide configuration options.
The IE-MultiWay can be managed directly because it contains on-board logic.

free software and current firmware versions may be downloaded from
the B+B SmartWorX site, under Support.
The IE-MultiWay requires two small form-factor (SFP) modules that provide
greater flexibility in the network environment. The hot-swappable nature of the
SFPs, available in dual strand for multi-mode and single-mode, and single
strand fiber types for single-mode, allow easy configuration and future
upgrading as network demands evolve. The SFP modules must be MSA-
compliant; both DDMI and non-DDMI are supported
.
The fiber SFP can
support 100Mbps or 1000Mbps; while the copper SFPs support
10/100/1000Mbps and 1000Mbps.
SFPs are sold separately from B+B SmartWorX and meet Class 1 Laser
Safety Standard.
