HIGH-DENSITY MEDIA CONVERTER SYSTEM II UNMANAGED CHASSIS 5/4/2007 #24435 724-746-5500 Choose 1- or 2-Slot Desktop Chassis for use as remote unmanaged media converters in your High-Density Media Converter System II application. With these tabletop units, you can customize your network to the protocols and media most appropriate for your application.
BANDWIDTH MANAGER Making the most of available bandwidth becomes more important as Internet use increases. To allocate bandwidth in the most cost-effective way within a network LAN/WAN environment, add a Bandwidth Manager module to any High-Density Media Converter System II. Ideal for Web hosting, server colocation, and service provider applications, this 2-port networking device enables you to easily and inexpensively control bidirectional bandwidth in 1-kbps increments up to 10 Mbps.
LAYER 1 MEDIA CONVERTER MODULES Layer 1 Media Converter Modules for the High-Density Media Converter System II convert the incoming electrical signal from one cable type and then transmit it over another type. These media converters bridge the gap between two different Ethernet types and are totally transparent to network operation, having no effect on the data being sent across the link.

LAYER 2 MEDIA CONVERTER MODULES Unlike Layer 1 media converters, which only convert one Ethernet media type to another, Layer 2 Media Converter Modules for the High-Density Media Converter System II are true switches— they actively store, filter, and forward Ethernet packets like any other MAC layer switch. Layer 2 converters increase network efficiency and reduce network overhead, significantly increasing data throughput.

T1/E1/J1 MODULES T1/E1/J1 modules for the High-Density Media Converter System II enable you to extend 1.544-Mbps T1/J1 or 2.048-Mbps E1 copper-based circuits over duplex fiber optic cable. They’re ideal for use with PBX systems or legacy telco circuits. These modules are selectable to support 1.544-Mbps T1 (ANSI T1.403), 2.048-Mbps E1 (G.703), or 1.544-Mbps J1.
DS3/E3/STS-1 MODULES DS3/E3/STS-1 Modules for the High-Density Media Converter System II provide conversion from BNC coax cable to fiber for DS3, E3, or STS-1 applications. They’re ideal in Municipal Area Network (MAN) access applications, for linking buildings over a campus area network, or anywhere incoming coaxial circuits need to be converted to fiber for distribution. Use fiber to extend highspeed coax circuits at greater distances and never worry about interference.
VDSL LAN EXTENDER MODULES FOR THE HIGH-DENSITY MEDIA CONVERTER SYSTEM II Save on wiring costs by extending Ethernet over ordinary phone-grade wiring. VDSL LAN Extender Modules for the High-Density Media Converter System II are the perfect way to extend your Ethernet network past the 100-meter (328-ft.) twisted-pair distance limit in a campus environment or in very large buildings. The extenders support an aggregate speed of up to 25 Mbps and distances of up to 2 kilometers (1.2 mi.).
FIBER MODE CONVERSION MODULES These protocol-independent modules convert multimode to single-mode fiber. Use them to add extra distance— up to 70 kilometers (43.5 miles)— to your fiber infrastructure. Or use them for migrating your multimode fiber infrastructure to single mode. Modules that support up to 155 Mbps are typically used for Ethernet or Fast Ethernet, although, because they are transparent to protocol, they can also be used in an OC-3 ATM (155-Mbps) environment.
MANAGED 10/100 COPPER TO 10/100 FIBER CONVERTERS • MANAGED 10/100 TO 10/100 MODULE The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX to 10BASE-FL/100BASE-FX Modules offer both media conversion and SNMP management. They’re great for campus applications where you need to bridge twisted-pair and fiber optic media in your HighDensity Media Converter System II Chassis platform. Working point-to-point, the modules ensure end-to-end data integrity with both points connected over highly reliable and secure optical cable.
