  • Page 9: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The modular Transition Networks E-MCC-1600 16-Slot Media Conversion Center allows the network administrator to select from among Transition Networks Media Converter Slide-in-Modules, to install the Media Converter Slide-in-Modules in the Media Conversion Center chassis, and then to connect various network media, at a central wiring location, through the Media Converter Slide-in-Modules.

  • Page 10: The Media Conversion Center

    The Media Conversion Center The Transition Networks 16-Slot Media Conversion Center chassis provides installation space for up to sixteen Media Converter Slide-in- Modules, up to two Power Supply Modules, and one SNMP Management Module, as shown in the cut-out top view below: NOTE: Media Converter Slide-in-Modules, Power Supply Modules, and Management Modules are all hot-swapable.

    CLI Access via Telnet CLI Access via Telnet is useful when CLI access is desired from a physical location other than the wiring closet where the E-MCC-1600 is installed. Any standard Telnet client (such as the one that is included with Windows 95) can be used from any location on the network.
  • Page 15 1 INTRODUCTION Telnet Security: The Telnet password is the same as the private community name. This is so because the authority granted to the Telnet CLI is not significantly more than that provided by the “private” (i.e. most priveleged) MIB view. Note that network traffic carried by the devices installed at the front of the Conversion Center can not be disturbed even through the most priveleged access to the Management Module.

  • Page 17: Site Planning

    SITE PLANNING The site for the 16-Slot Media Conversion Center must provide the following: • Power outlet for each Power Supply Module in the 16-Slot Media Conversion Center • Adequate ventilation • Standard environmental conditions • Isolation from electrical noise, including radio transmitters and broadband amplifiers, motors, high power electrical lines, or fluorescent light fixtures.
