OmniConveter G/M 6 and 10 Port Modules
Front Panel
The front of the G/M provides access to the management (serial console), RJ-45,
SFP and Fixed-Fiber ports. The SFP ports support 1000BASE-X SFP fiber and
10/100/1000BASE-T copper transceivers.
RJ-45, SFP and Fixed-Fiber Ports
The RJ-45 Ethernet user port supports 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T
protocols, auto-negotiation, auto MDI/MDI-X crossover and can be manually forced
to a specific speed and duplex mode.
The module is available with one or two gigabit SFP transceiver uplink ports or
two 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 copper uplink ports or two LC fixed gigabit fiber
uplink ports.
The SFP ports support SERDES 1000BASE-X fiber transceivers (multimode,
single-mode and single-mode singe-fiber) and SGMII 10/100/1000BASE-T copper
transceivers. The SFP interfaces operate in auto-negotiation and support full
duplex operation.
Fixed-fiber 1000BASE-X connectors are available with multimode (MM) dual fiber,
single-mode (SM) dual fiber and single-mode single-fiber (SF) options. Dual fiber
options are available with ST, SC and LC connectors. Single-fiber options are
available with SC connectors.
