About the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP
NOTE
Unless noted otherwise, all references to the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP in this manual are
also applicable to the iMcV-MediaLinX TX/FX. Configuration Control models are identified by
a Config Control label and a unique part number.
The SNMP manageable IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP module provides a single
conversion between 10/100 Base-T twisted pair and 100 Base-SX/FX fiber. Each IE-
iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP includes one RJ-45 connector and one pair of ST or SC fiber
optic connectors, and/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-MediaLinX TX/SFP modules install into any modular, SNMP
manageable iMediaChassis, as well as the MediaChassis series, which is unmanaged.
The IE-iMcV-MediaLinX 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.
Installing an iMcV-Module
iMcV-Modules install in IMC Networks’ SNMP manageable iMediaChassis series or in
any MediaChassis/IE-MediaChassis series.
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.
NOTE
All modules are hot-swappable
Configuration Instructions
IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP modules have user-configurable features. Refer to the
matrix for configuring both managed (via an SNMP compatible management
application such as iView²) or the DIP Switch configuration table for unmanaged IE-
iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP modules.
