ABOUT T H E IE-IMCV-M EDIALINX & -IMCV-MEDIALINX
OVERVIEW
The IE-ModeConverter is a pure mode converter that converts any fiber optics
type to any other fiber optics type. This product is a protocol independent
converter and is not intended for applications that require retiming or any
Layer 2 functions. The IE-ModeConverter supports extended temperature
operation.
The IE-ModeConverter requires two small form-factor (SFP) modules (sold
separately and available from B+B SmartWorx), which provide greater fiber
flexibility in the network environment. The hot-swappable nature of SFPs and
the numerous fiber modes and types available in SFPs allow for easy
configuration and future upgrading as network demands evolve. The SFP
modules must be MSA-compliant and support the same speed range.
• The IE-ModeConverter operates as a mode converter only; and not as a rate
converter.
• The IE-ModeConverter does not provide support for copper (TX) SFPs.
NOTE: Some options require items that are sold separately, available from B+B SmartWorx.
FEATURES
The IE-ModeConverter provides the ability to change optical transport
characteristics using easy-to-install SFP devices. This mix-and-match
functionality is only limited by available B+B SmartWorx' SFP units.
