NOTE
Unless noted otherwise, any reference is applicable for both the 1x9 and SFP version of
the IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm in this manual.
IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP is an SNMP-Manageable module that converts standard TDM-based copper transports (T1, E1, J1) to a single-mode or multi-mode fiber signal. It performs a standard “Line Termination” function as defined in GR- 820-CORE. This function transmits an Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) on the line whenever the received signal is lost. Line faults can easily be isolated to one line section and do not propagate over multiple-line sections as they do with normal line repeaters.
Each module includes one RJ-48 connector, one pair of ST or SC fiber optic connectors 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-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP modules install into any modular, SNMP manageable iMediaChassis, as well as the MediaChassis series, which is unmanaged. The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP offers an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C; 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.
An IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP with SFP Module with Configuration Control, configured as a Host, allows an SNMP Management Module in a managed chassis to manage the Remote. All settings are enabled and enforced through the SNMP. The Host keeps a copy of the Remote’s configuration settings. Each module offers the feature Configuration Control; please refer to the appropriate section.
When the Host unit is not in a managed chassis, the Host configures the Remote. This ensures that the Remote’s configuration will not revert to its DIP Switch settings and potentially disrupt traffic. However, if the user changes the DIP Switch settings on the Remote, the new configuration of the Remote will be enabled.
When SNMP management is installed at the Host, the following functions at the Remote are controlled from the Host unit:
•Loopback
•Line Code
•Transmit Data Source
•Fault Loopback
The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP with SFP Host unit can also display the DDMI information from the Remote LineTerm module. Please download the latest SNMP Management Module firmware and iVIew² software to ensure the full support and functionality of the modules.
