    About the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP NOTE Unless noted otherwise, all references to the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP in this manual are also applicable to the iMcV-MediaLinX TX/FX. Configuration Control models are identified by a Config Control label and a unique part number. The SNMP manageable IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP module provides a single conversion between 10/100 Base-T twisted pair and 100 Base-SX/FX fiber.
  • Page 5: Managed Modules

    Managed Modules To manage one or more IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP Modules, an SNMP agent must be present in the chassis: The iMediaChassis series requires an SNMP Management Module. To configure Managed Modules, install the module first, and then configure using the management software. Module Details will provide information such as serial number, date code and part number as well as product-specific features.
  • Page 6 Unmanaged Modules Before installing, configure IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP Modules for desired features listed in the table below. After configuring the DIP Switches for the desired settings, install the module and connect the appropriate cables.
  • Page 7: Fx Linkloss, Tx Linkloss, Link Fault Pass-Through, Fiberalert And Far End Fault

    The appropriate “LNK” (link) LED is lit to indicate this. The IMC Networks media converter also sends out link pulses from its copper and fiber transmitters, but normally has no way of knowing whether the cable to the other device is intact and the link pulses are reaching the other end.
  • Page 8: Link Fault Pass-Through (Lfpt)

    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 IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP modules. LFPT is enabled by turning on both FX and TX LinkLoss on both modules. This feature allows either end of the conversion to detect a link fault occurring at the other end of the media conversion chain.
  • Page 9 For example if a fault should occur on segment 2 in the direction of segment 1 to 3, FEF would be engaged on the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP between segment 2 and 3. This would then send a signal back to the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP between segment 1 and 2.
  • Page 10: Auto Negotiation On Ie-Imcv-Medialinx Tx/Sfp

    If the twisted pair port on the other device does not have the ability to Auto Negotiate or a half-duplex connection is desired, then Auto Negotiation must be disabled. The IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP is capable of 10 Mbps (half and full duplex) as well as 100 Mbps (half and full duplex).
  • Page 11: Additional Ie-Imcv-Medialinx Tx/Sfp Features

    TX Duplex Mode The Duplex Mode settings of the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP converter are offered on DIP Switch #2: FDX:OFF, HDX:ON The default duplex mode for IE-iMcV- MediaLinX TX/SFP is Full-Duplex. This mode is recommended if the End device does...
  • Page 12: Led Operation

    AutoCross Feature for Twisted Pair Connection All twisted pair ports on the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP include AutoCross, a feature that automatically selects between a crossover workstation and a straight-through connection depending on the connected device. LED Operation Each IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP Module features diagnostic LEDs that provide information on features and ports.
  • Page 13: Installation Troubleshooting

    When connecting to an end device, such as another switch, be sure to use the same configuration on its port as well as the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP. For example, if the end device is set to a FORCE mode, then set the copper port of the IE-iMcV-MediaLinX TX/SFP to a FORCE mode as well.
  • Page 14: Fiber Optic Cleaning Guidelines

    Dust caps are installed at IMC Networks to ensure factory-clean optical devices. These protective caps should not be removed until the moment of connecting the fiber cable to the device. Should it be necessary to disconnect the fiber device, reinstall the protective dust caps.
