FEATURES
Effectively manage the media converters in your network without
ever leaving your computer room. Extend your managed network
over fiber optic cable, over ordinary phone wire via vDSL, or even
over T1. The High-Density Media Converter System II provides a full
range of options, making it an ideal solution for any managed
enterprise network.
High-Density Media Converter System II is particularly well suited
for network-extension applications, offering a wide range of hot-
swappable media converter modules for network extension over fiber.
Additionally, the system offers a range of modules such as T1/E1 and
vDSL, that are not usually available with chassis-based media converter
systems.
Choose from a wide range of chassis options ranging from a large
rackmount chassis with modular SNMP management for your IT center
down to a tiny unmanaged desktop chassis for remote desktop
locations. Modules in unmanaged chassis can also be managed,
although the chassis themselves cannot.
With more than 100 modules to choose from, this system
can adapt to even the most demanding network config urations.
Many media converter modules perform Layer 2 media conversion,
which increases the efficiency of your network compared with using
a traditional Layer 1 media converter.

All media converter modules are hot-swappable—you never need
to power down a chassis to change a module.
The High-Density Media Converter System II is easy to integrate
into any managed network. Not only does it support industry-standard
SNMP, but fiber modules include LinkLoss
™
and/or FiberAlert
™
to alert
you if a fiber link is interrupted. LEDs on each module show link status
at a glance.
SNMP helps you diagnose network problems by monitor ing both
copper and fiber link status as well as the chassis’ temperature and
voltage levels. SNMP traps can alert you to potential network failures
so you incur less downtime and spend less time troubleshooting.
You can assign a name to each of the various ports and if a link failure
occurs, you’ll be notified with the port’s name.
Plus, we’ve expanded the High-Density Media Converter System II
family to include manageable media converter cards for connecting
copper segments to a fiber backbone. Just plug one of these into one
of our compact desktop chassis and get a higher level of control across
the link.
