INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
PRE-SETUP STEPS
The iMcV-10G-Converter SFP+/SFP+ modules have user-configurable
features: Loss Carry Forward (LCF), Speed (based on protocol selection)
and Loopback.
Your iMcV-10G-Converter SFP+/SFP+ has been tested for proper operation
before packaging and shipping. It should be in perfect mechanical and
electrical condition upon receipt.
ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PRECAUTIONS
This is an Electrostatic Sensitive Device. Use ESD precautions for safe handling.
Before removing the card from the anti-static protective packaging:
• Discharge any static electricity buildup on your body by touching a large
grounded metal surface or the metal chassis on equipment connected to
earth ground by a 3-wire power cord. Use of a grounding wrist strap is
recommended.
• Avoid touching the gold connectors or other parts on the card except when
necessary to set the configuration DIP Switches.
• Remove AC power from the computer before inserting the card.
WARNING! Integrated circuits and fiber optic components are
extremely susceptible to
electrostatic discharge damage. Do
not handle
these components directly unless you are a qualified
service technician and use tools and techniques that conform to
accepted industry practices.

INSTALLING AN IMCV MODULE
The iMcV-10G-Converter SFP+/SFP+ can be installed in B+B SmartWorx'
SNMP manageable iMediaChassis, MediaChassis series AC or DC, or IE-
MediaChassis AC or DC.
NOTE: All modules are hot swappable.
INSTALL IMCV-10G-CONVERTER SFP+/SFP+
1. Remove the blank bracket covering the slot where the module is to be
installed by removing the screws on the outside edges of the bracket.
2. Slide the iMcV-10G-Converter SFP+/SFP+ into the chassis, via the
card guides, until the module is seated securely in the connector.
3. Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw.
4. Save any “blanks” removed during installation for future use if the
configuration requirements change.
MANAGED MODULES
To manage one or more iMcV-Modules, an SNMP Management Module
must be installed in an iMediaChassis series, available in 3, 6 or 20 slots for
both AC and DC. Using management, the 10G converter will be identified in
the slot it is installed in, as well as options to set LoopBack and Loss Carry
Forward (LCF). The Module details includes an SFP+ table so that
management can provide information about the SFP+ if SFP+ with DDMI is
installed. The SFP+ table provides information such as temperature, voltage,
output power, receive power, vendor serial number, vendor part number and
vendor name.
CONFIGURATION CONTROL & SNMP MANAGEMENT
Some iMcV-Modules* offer Configuration Control. Configuration Control has
been implemented to assist the end user with the following:
Any type of module or management module can be swapped out under
power without losing configuration.
•The Management Module can be added to a chassis without losing
any configuration.
•The Management Module should not be subject to failure or
interruption in a “Mission Critical” environment. If the
Management Module is removed or fails, the modules should not
experience an interruption in service.
Configuration Control is designed to solve the following issues:

iMcV-10G Fiber Mode Converter SFP+/SFP+

•When non-Configuration Control modules are placed in a managed
chassis, the module’s DIP Switches are ignored, and the module
is configured by the chassis’ Management Module. If the SNMP
Management Module is removed or fails, then the modules will
revert back to the DIP Switch settings. When a module changes
from Management Module's settings to DIP Switch settings, the
traffic across the module will drop for a very short period of time.
•When introducing a Management Module to a chassis full of
working non-Configuration Control modules, the modules will
stop using the DIP Switch settings and start using the
Management Module settings. When a module changes from DIP
Switch settings to Management Module settings, the traffic
across the modules will drop for a very short period of time.
•When removing an existing module and replacing it with a different
type of module, the configuration of the existing module remains.
NOTE: The iMcV-SFP+/SFP+ supports Configuration Control. In addition, a menu of 10G protocols can
be selected through the iView² software, if the user chooses to specify the protocol rather than allow the
module to detect it.

OPERATION
LOSS CARRY FORWARD (LCF)
When a fault is detected on the incoming optical line that would severely
affect the quality of the corresponding output optical signal, this signal is
turned OFF as opposed to sending a bad optical signal to the next unit over
the optical line. The Loss Carry Forward function provides a very positive
fault indication to the downstream unit.
If the LCF function is not enabled, the transmitted optical signal is dependent
on the SFP+ units installed. This fault indication may become very
intermittent depending on the actual optical signal level.
INTERNAL TEST HEAD
The SFP+ unit supports an internal test head function. This intrusive function
can send a “test” signal pattern to the optical port. When this pattern is
detected by the far end unit, it can be automatically looped back by the far
end unit to the local end where it is checked for errors. In this way, complete
full bandwidth, line test, and verification can be performed on the line from
only one end.

LED OPERATION
Each iMcV-10G-Converter SFP+/SFP+ features diagnostic LEDs that
provide information on features and ports.
Name Color Function
SFP+1
FLT
Yellow ON when a DDMI fault is detected or SFP+ not installed.
LOS
Red ON when no link is detected.
LNK
Green ON when the Optical Link is good.
TST
Yellow ON when Test Function is enabled;
“Blinks” if test pattern received has any errors.
SFP+2
FLT
Red ON when a DDMI fault is detected or SFP+ not installed.
LOS
Yellow ON when no link is detected.
LNK
Green ON when the Optical Link is good.
TST
Yellow ON when Test Function is enabled;
“Blinks” if the test pattern received has any errors.
LED Operation
NOTE: Regardless of whether an SNMP Management Card is installed in the chassis, or not, if you insert a
10G card with the SFP+ ports populated, the 10G card should go through a short initialization (boot-up). After
that occurs, the two LEDs on the left (LOS, FLT) will reflect Red, Amber, until you connect the SFP+ ports to
your switch or whatever END Device 10G product you have. The LNK LED will flash green until the ports are
synchronized and then remain a solid green.

FIBER OPTIC CLEANING GUIDELINES
Fiber Optic transmitters and receivers are extremely susceptible to
contamination by particles of dirt or dust, which can obstruct the optic path and
cause performance degradation. Good system performance requires clean
optics and connector ferrules.
1. Use fiber patch cords (or connectors, if you terminate your own fiber)
only from a reputable supplier; low-quality components can cause many
hard-to-diagnose problems in an installation.
2. Dust caps are installed at the factory to ensure factory-clean optical
devices. These protective caps should not be removed until the moment
of connecting the fiber cable to the device. Should it be necessary to
disconnect the fiber device, reinstall the protective dust caps.
3. Store spare caps in a dust-free environment such as a sealed plastic
bag or box so that, when reinstalled, they do not introduce any
contamination to the optics.
4. If you suspect that the optics have been contaminated, alternate
between blasting with clean, dry, compressed air and flushing with
methanol to remove particles of dirt.
