About the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP
NOTE
Unless noted otherwise, all references to the IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP in this manual are also
applicable to the iMcV-Gigabit TX/FX.
The SNMP manageable IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Module provides a single conversion
between 1000 Base-T twisted pair and 1000 Base-SX/LX fiber. Each IE-iMcV-Gigabit
TX/SFP includes one RJ-45 connector and one pair of SC fiber optic connectors,
and/or an SFP port, which can support any fiber type; dual strand available in LC
connectors, and Single Strand Fiber SFPs available in SC connectors. IE-iMcV-Gigabit
TX/SFP Modules install into any modular, SNMP manageable iMediaChassis, as well
as the MediaChassis series, which is unmanaged. The IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP offers
an extended temperature range of -40C to +85C; 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.
NOTE
All IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules, including 1300 nm multi-mode and 1310 nm single-
mode (TX/LX), 850 nm multi-mode fiber (TX/SX) and single-strand versions (TX/SSLX) will be
referred to as IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP throughout this guide except where differences need to
be indicated.
Installing an iMcV-Module
iMcV-Modules install in IMC Networks’ SNMP manageable iMediaChassis series or in
any MediaChassis.
To install an iMcV-Module:
1.
Remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be installed
by removing the screws on the outside edges of the bracket.
2.
Slide the iMcV-Module into the chassis, via the cardguides, until the module is
seated securely in the connector.
3.
Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw.
4.
Save any “blanks” removed during installation for future use if the configuration
requirements change.
Configuration Instructions
IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules have user-configurable features. Refer to the
matrix for configuring both managed (via an SNMP compatible management
application such as iView²) and unmanaged IE-iMcV-Gigabit TX/SFP Modules.
