FibroLAN MetroStar GBE Converter Modules MCM1000T MCM1000S

This module provides fiber conversion from a fiber-optic multimode GBE link (1000Base-SX) to a Single Mode Link (1000Base-LX) to allow extension of up to 80km. Unlike other products available in the market, the MCM1000S is based on a full digital technology: Signals from one F/O port are converted to digital electrical signals, fully retimed then converted again to F/O transmitted from the second port. This design provides a resilient and steady conversion and advanced control and diagnostic features. In addition it facilitates special applications like daisy-chaining, back-to-back and management. It is transparent to duplex mode. Fault Propagation from one F/O port to the second F/O port allows end-to-end link integrity verification. A Loop-Back function (separate for each port) simplifies troubleshooting of link problems.

Each port provides separate Link and Activity indications for enhanced diagnostics. Like other MetroStar modules, the MCM module is fully SNMP managed. All MetroStar modules are hot swappable and equipped with two self-clinching screws for easy and safe module insertion and removal. A special LED indicates that the module is well inserted in its slot and “alive” even before links are connected. The MCM1000-T modules provide a copper 1000Base-T to 1000SX MM 850nm /1000LX SM 1310 and 1510nm conversion for distances up to 80Km
