About the IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP NOTE Unless noted otherwise, any reference is applicable for both the 1x9 and SFP version of the IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm in this manual. IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP is an SNMP-Manageable module that converts standard TDM-based copper transports (T1, E1, J1) to a single-mode or multi-mode fiber signal. It performs a standard “Line Termination” function as defined in GR820-CORE.
NOTE IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP with SFP Module can be installed in an iMediaChassis and MediaChassis series. Installing an iMcV-Module iMcV-Modules install in IMC Networks’ SNMP manageable iMediaChassis series or in any MediaChassis/IE-MediaChassis series. To install an iMcV-Module: 1. Remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be installed by removing the screws on the outside edges of the bracket. 2.
• Required CSU line Buildout (0db to -22db) • Receiver BOOST for T1 and E1 applications • Fiber transceivers must be for appropriate fiber run, i.e. (SM or MM) • Management location must be at HOST unit Managed Modules The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP modules are installed as a HOST-REMOTE pair and can be remotely managed when the HOST is installed in an iMediaChassis with an SNMP Management module.
Configuration Control Some iMcV-Modules offer configuration control; labels on the front faceplate are identified as such. Configuration control has been implemented to assist the end user by retaining the latest configuration regardless of how that configuration was implemented (via DIP Switch settings or SNMP). Historically, SNMP would override DIP Switch settings. If changes are made to the module via iView2, the SNMP settings determine the configuration of the board and the DIP Switches had no effect.
NOTE If the end user has a mixture of standard iMcV-Modules as well as Configuration Control iMcV-Modules, it is important to understand how SNMP and DIP Switches will impact the cards depending on their capability. Standard iMcV-Modules cannot be upgraded to Configuration Control capability, so it is strongly recommended to set the DIP Switches on the modules and then configure them via software to match the same settings.
DIP Switches The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP DIP Switches are located on S2 and S3 on the PCB.

Features The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP module includes several features to facilitate maintenance and troubleshooting in any T1/E1/J1 based TDM environment. SFP SFPs with Data and Diagnostics Management Information (DDMI) can be installed in the SFP port of the host and the remote. This allows the end user to view the DDMI information through the chassis's management using the SFP button in iView2.
Loopback Modes This feature allows three distinct Loopbacks to be activated either through DIP Switches or iView2 Management. Fiber Loopback An analog Loopback at the copper port back to the fiber port. It copies the received optical signal back to the optical line at the copper port and continues to drive the copper port, but can be corrupted by noise on the copper port. Internal Fiber Loopback A local Loopback at the fiber port.
Fault Loopback This switch enables or disables the Fault Loopback feature on the copper port. A normal copper line LOS fault will cause a Remote Alarm Indictor (RAI) to be sent on to the fiber line segment causing the normal AIS to be sent on the far end copper port. The fault loopback feature provides for a fault indication to be sent back to the copper line as an AIS signal. In this way, both upstream and downstream personnel are alerted to a copper cable fault.
T1, E1 and J1 Selection This switch selects the data rate to use on the copper line. The data rate selections available include the following: • • T1/J1 (1.544 Mbps +/- 32 ppm) E1 (2.048 Mbps +/- 32 ppm) By default this feature is set to T1. This feature can be selected only by setting the DIP Switches manually. Remote Management A DIP Switch enables or disables the Remote Management mode. By default this feature is Disabled. Remote Management must be enabled on the REMOTE module.
LED Operation The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP module features several diagnostic LEDs per port. The following LED display functions are provided: Copper Port LEDs ER Flashes yellow whenever a line code violation is received. LOS Glows red when the RJ-48 is receiving no signal and is in an LOS ALARM state. This condition will also send an RAI signal to the fiber port. If the Fault Loopback is set to ON, an AIS will also be sent to the local copper port.
Loopback Testing The IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP includes three Loopback test modes: Copper Loopback, Fiber Loopback and Internal Fiber Loopback. The following illustrations show a typical progression of Loopback tests (i.e., starting by checking the copper segment at the local side, then the fiber segment at the REMOTE side, etc). Each Loopback performs the following: • Copies the incoming signal back out to the origin while continuing to transmit this signal downstream.
Pseudorandom Bit Sequence (PRBS) Testing To test using PRBS, configure the IE-iMcV-T1/E1/J1-LineTerm, TP/SFP modules for No Loopback, and then configure the Transmit Copper Data Source to PRBS. Configure the local device for Loopback and start the test. Verify the PRBS LED is ON indicating no errors are being received.
Use the following LED indications to identify the fault location: *DIP Switch S3-7 must be set to ON for Fault Loopback to operate as illustrated. The following table lists the pin configuration for the RJ-48 connector.

Fiber Optic Cleaning Guidelines Fiber Optic transmitters and receivers are extremely susceptible to contamination by particles of dirt or dust, which can obstruct the optic path and cause performance degradation. Good system performance requires clean optics and connector ferrules. 1. Use fiber patch cords (or connectors, if you terminate your own fiber) only from a reputable supplier; low-quality components can cause many hard-to-diagnose problems in an installation. 2.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause damage to any product, add-in modules or stand alone units, containing electronic components. Always observe the following precautions when installing or handling these kinds of products 1. Do not remove unit from its protective packaging until ready to install. 2. Wear an ESD wrist grounding strap before handling any module or component.
