iConverter
TM3 Transport Module
Quick Start Guide
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
This document describes the basic installation and configuration of the TM3 Transport
module.
The
iConverter
Modular T1/E1 Multiplexer transports up to sixteen T1/E1 circuits and
10/100/1000 Ethernet over a fiber transport link or CWDM channel. This flexible and scalable
system is comprised of an
iConverter
TM3 fiber transport module, and one or more
iConverter
4xT1/E1 MUX modules installed in a 2, 5 or 19-module chassis.

3) CONFIGURE MODULE VIA COMMAND LINE INTERFACE
To access the Command Line Interface (CLI), connect the TM3 RS-232 Serial Console
Port to the COM port of a computer equipped with terminal emulation software such as
HyperTerminal. The Console Port (DCE) is a mini DIN-6 female connector which can be
changed to a DB-9 connector with the included adapter. The TM3 Console Port is a standard
RS-232 asynchronous serial interface.
Start HyperTerminal and select the correct COM Port in the HyperTerminal “Connect To:”
window. Set the serial port to the following:
Bits Per Second
57,600
Data Bits
8
Stop Bits
1
Parity
NONE
Hardware Flow Control
NONE
Once connected, press <ENTER> to bring up a command line prompt on the attached PC.
A new TM3 module does not have a password, and will skip the Password Entry screen and
go straight to the Management Options screen. If a password has been set, the Password
Entry screen will be displayed. Type the password and press <ENTER>, the TM3 will respond
with the Management Options screen.
The CLI interface enables detailed configuration of the module.
4) VERIFY OPERATION
Once the module has been installed and configured per steps 1 - 3, verify the module is
operational by viewing the LED indicators.
