  • Page 4: About Imcv-Giga-Medialinx

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX ABOUT IMCV-GIGA-MEDIALINX The iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP provides a single conversion between 10/100/1000 Base-T twisted pair and 1000 Base-SX/FX fiber. This device Auto Negotiates speed and duplex on the copper port and the fiber is fixed at 1000Mbps. There is a fixed fiber and an SFP version available; both support jumbo frames up to [frame size] MTU.

  • Page 5: Managed Modules

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX MANAGED MODULES To manage one or more iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP (s), an SNMP agent must be present in the chassis. To configure Managed Modules, the end user can set DIP Switches or use the iView² software. CONFIGURATION CONTROL & SNMP MANAGEMENT As SNMP needs have grown, many network administrators who own the iMediaChassis series are installing an SNMP Management Module to manage and monitor B+B devices in the network.

  • Page 6: Inserting An Imcv Module

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX iMcV module DIP Switch settings can be used to make initial configuration settings overriding the management module’s setting. (See examples.) INSERTING AN IMCV MODULE Without Configuration Control • DIP Switches are ignored and the iMcV module takes the configuration from the management module. This could be the default configuration or from a previously installed module.

  • Page 7: Unmanaged Modules

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX UNMANAGED MODULES Before installing, configure the iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP modules for desired features. The table below indicates the available features and settings for the iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP modules. After configuring desired settings, install the module and connect appropriate cables (see Installing iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP section for more information).

  • Page 8: Selective Advertising (Tx Port)

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX SELECTIVE ADVERTISING (TX PORT) Selective Advertising, when used in combination with Auto Negotiation, advertises only the configured speed and duplex mode for the twiste- pair port. This allows configuration of both the twisted-pair port’s speed (10, 100 or 1000 Mbps) and Duplex Mode (FDX or HDX).

  • Page 9: Fx Linkloss, Tx Linkloss, Fiberalert, Lfpt, Far End Fault

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX FX LINKLOSS, TX LINKLOSS, FIBERALERT, LINK FAULT PASS THROUGH, FAR END FAULT iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP includes troubleshooting features: FiberAlert, FX LinkLoss, and TX LinkLoss, that can help locate "silent failures" on the network. This section explains how FiberAlert and LinkLoss work, how they react in a network configuration, which should be understood before attempting to enable any of these features.

  • Page 10: Tx Linkloss (Txll)

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX LINKLOSS (TXLL) TX LinkLoss is a troubleshooting feature. When a fault occurs on the twisted pair segment of a conversion, TX LinkLoss detects the fault and passes this information to the fiber segment. If a media converter is not receiving a twisted pair link, TX LinkLoss disables the transmitter on the media converter's fiber port.

  • Page 11: Link Fault Pass Through (Lfpt)

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX LINK FAULT PASS THROUGH (LFPT) Link Fault Pass-Through (LFPT) is a troubleshooting feature that combines TX and FX LinkLoss from both the local and remote iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP. LFPT is disabled by turning on both FX and TX LinkLoss on both modules.

  • Page 12: Auto Negotiation (Tx And Fx)

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX AUTO NEGOTIATION (TX AND FX) AUTO NEGOTIATION TX The iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP ships from the factory with Auto Negotiation enabled on the twisted pair port. In this mode, the twisted pair port negotiates for speed and duplex, autosensing 10 Mbps Full-Duplex, 10 Mbps Half-Duplex, 100 Mbps Full-Duplex, 100 Mbps Half-Duplex, or 1000 Mbps Full-Duplex with Flow Control.

  • Page 13: Led Operation

    iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX LED OPERATION Each iMcV-Giga-MediaLinX TX/SFP module features diagnostic LEDs that provide information on features and ports. Glows green when powered. 1000 Glows green at 1000 Mbps. Glows green at 100 Mbps. Glows amber at 10 Mbps LNK/ACT Glows green when link is established. Blinks green when data activity occurs (this is true for both LNK/ACT LEDs).
