The iConverter GX/T media converters are members of the modular iConverter product family. The GX/T provides 10/100/1000 RJ-45 copper to Gigabit Ethernet fiber conversion and can be used in a managed or unmanaged fashion.
The GX/T is a chassis-based module that provides high-density fiber distribution from copper network switches.
The GX/T models support multimode and single-mode dual fiber with ST, SC and LC connectors; and single-mode singlefiber with SC connectors. The RJ-45 port supports 10/100/1000 and Half/Full-Duplex auto-negotiation with both hardware and software manual override controls.
The GX/T features two 10/100 Ethernet backplane ports to provide connectivity to adjacent modules for network expansion and for in-band connectivity to an iConverter Network Management Module (NMM2).
Advanced features include VLAN, which allows network managers control the traffic flow between the copper, fiber and backplane ports to enhance security, and Port Access Control, which provides the ability to enable or disable individual ports to control delivery of services to customers. The GX/T also supports port level MIB statistics reporting a real-time packet statistics to provide performance and operational monitoring.
The GX/T features user-selectable Link Propagate, Link Segment, Remote Fault Detection and Symmetrical Fault Detection modes to facilitate quick fault detection, isolation and reporting.
iConverter GX/T modules are hot-swappable and can be mounted in a 19-Module (2U high) or 5-Module (1U high) rackmountable chassis (19-inch or 23-inch) with redundant AC, 24VDC or 48VDC power supplies. They can also be mounted in a 2-Module AC or 18 to 60VDC powered chassis, or in a 1-Module AC or DC powered chassis.
