Modular, Managed Four E1 Plus Data Extension Over Fiber
iMcV-E1-Mux/4
The iMcV-E1-Mux/4 Transports Four E1 Extensions and One RS-232
Serial Link Over a Fiber Optic Line With Optional 1+1 Protection and
Full-Bandwidth 10/100 Ethernet Support.
The iMcV-E1-Mux/4 is a managed modular media converter,
installed as a Host/Remote pair, that transports four independent
E1 lines over a single or dual fiber optic line. The module is ideal
for applications requiring TDM extension, such as remote office
PABX connectivity, with optional support for a full bandwidth
10/100BaseT Ethernet connection over the same optical link.
There are two different versions to choose from:
• iMcV-E1-Mux/4: standard version offering one RS-232 port
and four E1 extensions over fiber, via a single SFP port
(SFP not included)
• iMcV-E1-Mux/4+Ethernet:advancedversionofferingone
RS-232 port and four E1 extensions along with one Ethernet
extension over fiber. Dual SFP ports offer 1+1 protection
switching on the fiber link
The iMcV-E1-Mux/4 system provides full Operation Administration
and Management (OAM) support for the E1, Ethernet, and fiber
links from the Host end of the link. The equipment detects,
Ethernet, E1 and fiber LOS events as well as degraded lines with
full LED indications including a Remote Alarm Indicator (RAI) over
the fiber link.
Fiber redundancy (1+1) on removable SFP modules offers the
enhanced reliability of a protected fiber link while supporting
the complete range of optical types and distances. The 1+1
protection system automatically switches to the best fiber line
within 50 milliseconds, should one line become impaired or fail.
Both product versions feature an independent serial link (RS-232)
which is carried over the same fiber link(s), and can be used for
transporting serial traffic from other equipment located at the
remote point of presence (POP) back to the central office. Each
unit also supports an independent RS-232 console port for local
monitoring and configuration of the unit by technical support
personnel.
