PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The iConverter SFP-NID is a Gigabit Ethernet Small Form Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver
with digital diagnostic monitoring and provides Fault Management (FM) and Performance
Monitoring (PM). The SFP-NID is available with a 1000BASE-LX fiber port or an RJ-45
copper port. The fiber port supports standard 1310nm or 1550nm wavelengths, or CWDM
wavelengths. The SFP-NID can be installed directly into a demarcation device, aggregation
device or any other network equipment, adding advanced FM and PM capabilities to a non-
Carrier Ethernet equipment; preserving investments in non-CE or legacy switches and routers.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1) Installing the SFP-NID
2) Verifying the SFP-NID
3) Configuring the SFP-NID
1) INSTALLING THE SFP-NID
Caution: Use proper ESD protection to reduce the risk of damage to your equipment.
a. Insert the SFP-NID into the SFP receptacle on the host equipment.
NOTE: The release latch of the SFP-NID transceiver must be in the closed (up)
position before insertion.
b. For the LC Fiber SFP-NID, connect the appropriate single-mode fiber cable to the SFP-
NID. When using dual fiber, it is important to ensure that the transmit (TX) is attached
to the receive side of the device at the other end and the receive (RX) is attached to
the transmit side.
c. For the RJ-45 SFP-NID, connect the UTP cable to the SFP-NID RJ-45 port.
2) VERIFYING THE SFP-NID
Once the SFP-NID is installed and the network cable is plugged into the SFP-NID, verify
the operational status of the fiber port by viewing the status of the LED indicators of the host
device. The fiber LED on the host device will illuminate when the SFP-NID is receiving a
signal from the device at the other end of the fiber cable.
Verify connectivity by pinging the IP address of the SFP-NID. Once connectivity has been
040-7200N-001C 2/18
verified, initiate a Telnet session to configure the SFP-NID.
