(1310 nm and 1550 nm) to share one fiber strand, essentially doubling the capacity of installed fiber. iMcV-DS3/E3/STS modules must be deployed in pairs (one at each end of a conversion). The data transmitted on the fiber ports can only be received and interpreted by the receive fiber of another iMcV-DS3/E3/STS. -

• Distance of the coax run • Distance of the fiber run • Troubleshooting requirements. Managed Modules To manage iMcV-DS3/E3/STS modules, an SNMP agent must be present; the iMediaChassis requires an SNMP management module. For a managed environment, first manually... - Page 7 iView supports the following platforms: Windows 2000 Windows XP Windows Vista Windows 7 Please see the SNMP Management Module installation guide for software configuration options.

Page 8: Dip Switches
In an unmanaged configuration, none of the DIP Switch settings can be overridden by software. DIP Switches The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS DIP Switches are located on S1 and S2 on the PCB. The S2 DIP Switches are factory configured and must not be moved. - Page 9 Remote Unit S1-10: OFF Remote Unit Disabled (D) S1-10: ON Remote Unit Enabled Feature Descriptions The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS module includes several features that allow it to be configured for varying DS3/E3/STS-based environments. Loopback This switch enables or disables the loopback feature. When this feature is enabled, the data line (Coax or Fiber) set by the Loopback Type DIP Switch is looped back.
- Page 10 This feature can be controlled by SNMP management software (iView ) when the iMcV-DS3/E3/STS module is installed in a managed chassis.
- Page 11 By default this feature is set to COAX. This feature can be controlled by SNMP management software (iView ) when the iMcV-DS3/E3/STS module is installed in a managed chassis. Jitter Attenuation This switch selects the jitter attenuation location on the coax transceiver.
- Page 12 This feature can be controlled by SNMP management software (iView ) when the iMcV-DS3/E3/STS module is installed in a managed chassis. ** WARNING ** Enabling FiberAlert on both of the iMcV-DS3/E3/STS modules will cause them both to stop transmitting unrecoverably when a fault occurs.
- Page 13 DS3, E3 and STS Selection This switch selects the data rate to use on the coax line. The data rate selections available include the following: • 45 Mbps (DS3) • 34 Mbps (E3) • 52 Mbps (STS) By default this feature is set to 45 Mbps (DS3). This feature can only be selected by setting the DIP Switches manually.
- Page 14 This feature can only be selected by setting the DIP Switches manually. Loopback Testing The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS includes two loopback test modes: Coax Loopback and Fiber Loopback. The following illustrations show the path that a signal takes in each of the loopback test modes.
- Page 15 Remote loopback tests isolate problems on the coax run between an iMcV-DS3/E3/STS module and the connected device, while local loopback tests can isolate problems on the fiber connected to the module.
- Page 16 Pseudorandom Bit Sequence (PRBS) Testing To test using Pseudorandom Bit Sequence, configure the iMcV-DS3/E3/STS modules for No Loopback, then configure the Transmit Data Source to “Transmit Pseudorandom Bit Sequence.” Configure the local device for loopback, conduct the test, then check the PBEO LED to verify errors were not received (Refer to the LED section for more information).

Page 17: Led Operation
LED Operation The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS module features several diagnostic LEDs per port. The LED functions are as follows: LEDs Next to Coax (BNC) Port LPBK Glows green when module is in a Loopback mode. NO LNK Glows green when a link is NOT PBEO established. -

3. Verify that you have a valid connection for both the BNC and fiber ports on your media converter. • If there is trouble with link connectivity, make sure the connection is made using 75W Coax cable. NOTE iMcV-DS3/E3/STS Repeater modules cannot be connected iMcV-DS3/E3/STS LineTerm modules successfully. -
