iConverter 4xT1/E1 MUX/M
Managed T1/E1 Multiplexer
The iConverter 4xT1/E1 MUX/M multiplexes up to four
T1/E1s and Ethernet onto a ber optic transport link, and
features remotely managed testing and configuration
capabilities.
The iConverter 4xT1/E1 MUX/M operates in a back-to-back
conguration, with one multiplexer at each end of the ber
transport link. The 4xT1/E1 MUX/M can be used in applications
where services from legacy TDM equipment require transport
across long distances that exceed the reach or capacity of
copper. This includes applications such as T1/E1 extension,
mobile backhaul and building-to-building PBX connectivity,
making it ideal for Enterprise, Telecom and Utility industries.
The 4xT1/E1 MUX/M supports xed-ber and Small Form
Pluggable (SFP) transceivers, enabling easy adaptability to
different ber types, distances and wavelengths. The 4xT1/E1
MUX/M supports multimode, single-mode, single-mode single-
ber, in standard and CWDM wavelengths.
The copper interfaces feature four RJ-48 connectors for
balanced T1/E1 applications. An optional adapter cable is
available to convert each RJ-48 interface to a BNC interface
for unbalanced E1 transport applications.
The 4xT1/E1 MUX/M supports AMI, B8ZS and HDB3 line
codes. DIP-switches provide easy conguration of the T1/E1
line codes and line build-out.
The 4xT1/E1 MUX/M features user-selectable local loop-back
on both the copper and ber ports, remote ber loop-back and
circuit test modes. These functions facilitate diagnosis of the
remote unit, and minimizes the need for test equipment and
support personnel at each end of a link. Alarm relay and LEDs
provide fault notication for loss of power, LOS and AIS.
Conguration of T1/E1 line codes, line build out, loopbacks
and circuit test is accomplished via local serial port, Telnet,
SNMP or DIP-switches.
The 4xT1/E1 MUX/M is a compact, managed standalone unit
available in both AC and DC models. The AC model accepts
AC power input ranging from 100VAC to 240VAC, 50/60Hz,
while the DC model accepts 18VDC to 60VDC.
