iConverter® 10/100M2
10/100 Copper to Fast Ethernet Fiber Media Converter and Network Interface Device
The iConverter 10/100M2 is a carrier-grade Network Interface Device (NID) that provides 10/100 copper to Fast Ethernet fiber media conversion with integrated management.
For Service Providers, the 10/100M2 NID provides MEF 9, 14 and 21 certified demarcation of Carrier Ethernet E-Line services.
For Enterprise and Government and Utility networks, the 10/100M2 enables secure demarcation and management for mission-critical applications delivered over fiber infrastructure.
The integrated management eliminates the cost and space required for external management hardware. The integrated management provides comprehensive remote configuration and performance monitoring.
The 10/100M2 supports IPv4 addressing, IP-Less protocol using the 802.3ah OAM channel, SNMPv1/v2c/v3, Telnet and serial console port.
The IP address is user-defined or can be resolved through DHCP. Telnet and serial console management interfaces are supported, and utilize an easy-to-use, menu-driven interface. The serial interface provides local configuration access.
SNMP management is available via Omnitron’s NetOutlook® SNMP Network Management Software with an intuitive Graphical User Interface, or third party SNMP software.
The 10/100M2 models are available with ST, SC and LC fixed-fiber connectors supporting multimode dual fiber, single-mode dual fiber and single-mode single-fiber options. The 10/100M2 Small Form Pluggable (SFP) model supports a wide variety of 100BASE-X SFP transceivers in standard, CWDM and DWDM wavelengths.
The RJ-45 port supports 10/100 and Half/Full Duplex auto-negotiation and Pause control, with both hardware and software manual override controls. The module supports frame sizes up to 2,048 bytes.
The 10/100M2 features multiple, user-selectable link fault detection modes, including Link Fault Propagation, Remote Fault Detection and Asymmetrical Fault Detection. These Link Modes provide rapid fault detection and isolation by monitoring the state of the copper and fiber ports, and operate independently of the network management.
The 10/100M2 Network Interface devices are available as compact, managed standalone units, or chassis plug-in modules. The plug-in module can manage other modules in the same chassis and operate as a managed 10/100 media converter.
The hot-swappable plug-in module can be mounted in a high-density 19 or 5-Module chassis with redundant AC and DC power supplies. It can also be mounted in a 2-Module or in a 1-Module chassis with AC or DC power input.
The plug-in module features two Ethernet backplane ports for connectivity to adjacent modules in a chassis for multi-port and multi-service configurations.
The 10/100M2 standalone unit is available with an external AC to DC power adapter or with a 2-pin terminal connector for direct connection to DC power. The standalone module can be DIN-Rail mounted using the optional DIN-Rail mounting bracket (8250-0), DIN-Rail Mounting Clips (8251-0) and wall mounted.
The 10/100M2 standalone unit combines management capability with a compact chassis for deployment at the demarcation point.

Secure IP-less Management
iConverter 10/100M2 plug-in modules are installed in the 19-Module chassis, and connected via the fiber link to a standalone 10/100M2 module. An Network Management Module (NNM2) is installed in the 19-Module chassis providing an IP-less management channel between the 10/100M2 link partners. The management data is encrypted and isolated from the customer data, protecting the management from unauthorized access. The IP address for this chassis configuration reside only on the NMM2, and does not exist on the customer network.
Securely Managed Access Network
iConverter 10/100M2 plug-in modules are installed in a managed iConverter 19-Module chassis for high-density fiber distribution from UTP switch equipment. At Customer Premises on the right, a 10/100M2 plug-in module and an iConverter 4TxVT four-port switch module are installed in a 2-Module chassis, and share data via the Ethernet Backplane. This configuration provides a remotely managed demarcation switch with a fiber uplink port and five copper ports that drop off Ethernet services. At Customer Premises on the left, the 10/100M2 standalone NID provides a fiber uplink to a single copper port for intelligent demarcation of Ethernet services.
