iMcV Fiber Mode Converters

Protocol-Independent, SNMP-Manageable

Fiber Mode Conversion Modules

The iMcV Series of fiber mode conversion modules allow you to easily extend your network to remote locations by converting multi-mode fiber to single-mode fiber.

In today’s dynamic networks, changing requirements are a fact of life. The multi-mode fiber products and cabling which were the most cost-effective and sound choice for your network yesterday may no longer give you the flexibility you require when adding remote offices today. Easily overcome the distance limitations inherent to multi-mode fiber by converting to single-mode fiber. Fiber mode converters are the solution.

Extend the reach of your network without replacing multi-mode fiber equipment:

As an economical alternative to using a switch with single-mode fiber ports, simply install an IMC Networks fiber mode converter into your multi-mode fiber network. This enables you to easily connect to single-mode cabling and achieve distances up to 100 km. Our fiber mode converters also give you the flexibility to add single-mode fiber links only where needed. The iMcV series of fiber mode conversion modules includes: iMcV-S2MM:

• Converts multi-mode to single-mode fiber

• Supports 10 Mbps Ethernet to 155 Mbps ATM (OC-3); 622 Mbps; and from

622 Mbps, to 1.0625 Gbps FibreChannel (FC) to 1.25 Gbps Gigabit Ethernet

• Available with fault-tolerance (see below).

iMcV-M2MM:

• Converts multi-mode to multi-mode fiber

• 10 Mbps Ethernet to 155 Mbps ATM (OC-3) iMcV-S2SM:

• Converts single-mode to single-mode fiber

• Supports 10 Mbps Ethernet to 155 Mbps ATM (OC-3); and from 622 Mbps, to 1.0625 Gbps FibreChannel (FC) to 1.25 Gbps Gigabit Ethernet

Hot-swappable fiber mode conversion modules significantly reduce operation costs by allowing other modules within the same chassis to remain up and running during product upgrades, maintenance and troubleshooting.

The Fault-Tolerant iMcV-FT-S2MM provides a dual data path during operation, the primary link segment is active while the secondary link segment is non-active to prevent an illegal Ethernet loop. If the primary link segment fails, iMcV-FT-S2MM automatically places the secondary link segment online and makes the primary link segment non-active. This allows connected devices to continue to transmit and receive data. Once the primary link segment is re-established, that link segment will become active once again.

Easily configure and manage converters with the GUI-based iView²:

As an SNMP management application,

iView² gives network managers the ability to monitor and control IMC Networks' products. iView² runs standalone on

Windows NT/XP/2000, as a standalone

Java Application for other operating systems, as a snap-in module for HP

OpenView, as a Web Server running under IIS or as a Java Web Servlet.

For each product listed below in the Ordering Information section, the number in the [XX] denotes an approximate fiber distance based on industry-standard fiber specifications and worst-case (connector loss, aged fiber, splices, etc.) installations. You can typically achieve substantially longer distances.

Actual distances may vary for each installation. For complete power budgets and information on calculating specific distances, please visit web site our at
