Safety Precaution - Static Electricity
Static electricity can cause bodily harm or damage electronic devices. To avoid
damage, keep static-sensitive devices in the static-protective packaging until the
installation period. The following guidelines are also recommended:
Wear a grounded wrist or ankle strap and use gloves to prevent direct contact to
the device before servicing the device. Avoid nylon gloves or work clothes,
which tend to build up a charge.
Always disconnect the power from the device before servicing it.
Before plugging a cable into any port, discharge the voltage stored on the cable
by touching the electrical contacts to the ground surface.

The IMC-574I-SFP can be installed as a standalone device, back to back, or as a
Remote when connected to an iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II configured as a Host.
As a CPE device, the IE-MultiWay can behave as a Remote to an iMcV-Giga-Fiber-
LinX-II (or –III) Host when:
1. The iMcV-Giga-FiberLinX-II (or -III):
–Is connected via the SFP ports on the IE-MultiWay.
–Is configured as a Host.
2. The SNMP card (if present):
–Uses SNMP firmware version 953-00D0 or higher.
3. The IMC-574I-SFP:
When using iView2, the IMC-574I-SFP can be fully managed without an IP
address using a secure management channel. However, an IP address can be
assigned through iView2 (iConfig view), the CLI or Telnet using the default IP
address of 10.10.10.10.

1.2 Operations, Administration, Maintenance (OAM)
OAM is a general term used in network management and typically applied to a series
of standard protocols for installing, monitoring, and troubleshooting Metropolitan
Area Networks (MANs).
When applied to Ethernet, OAM is typically assumed to refer to the layer 2 (MAC
layer), management protocols (specifically 802.3ah and 802.1ag). Layer 2 manage-
ment protocols do not need higher level transport protocols to operate, OAM data is
transferred in standard multicast Ethernet frames.
802.3ah OAM (LINK-OAM):
A point-to-point protocol designed to verify a specific link between two directly
connected devices (over copper or fiber), that support 802.3ah OAM. One
device must be configured as an active OAM device; the other as passive
(typically a core switch would be the active device; the end device passive).
802.3ah OAM provides link status, remote fault detection and the ability to
initiate a loopback circuit.
802.1ag (SERVICE-OAM):
Often referred to as Connectivity Fault Management (CFM), is an end-to-end
protocol designed to verify a specific network path between two devices that
may be in different geographical locations. CFM allows the network operator to
administer, monitor and debug the network using continuity check (a “heart
beat” message), link trace (similar to traceroot, but operating at the MAC layer)
and loopback (can be likened to a layer 2 ping).

2Converter Installation

7 IMC-574I-SFP User Manual
2.1 Installation Guidelines
The following guidelines are provided to optimize the device performance. Review
the guidelines before installing the device.
Make sure cabling is away from sources of electrical noise. Radios, power lines,
and fluorescent lighting fixtures can interference with the device performance.
Make sure the cabling is positioned away from equipment that can damage the
cables.
Operating environment is within the ranges listed range, see “Specifications” on
page 3.
Relative humidity around the converter does not exceed 95 percent
(noncondensing).
Altitude at the installation site is not higher than 10,000 feet.
In 10/100 and 10/100/1000 fixed port devices, the cable length from the con-
verter to connected devices can not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
Make sure airflow around the converter and respective vents is unrestricted.
Without proper airflow the converter can overheat. To prevent performance deg-
radation and damage to the converter, make sure there is clearance at the top
and bottom and around the exhaust vents.
2.2 Installing the Converter
2.2.1 Wall-Mounting
The IMC-574I-SFP can mount on DIN rail or use a wall mount bracket (shown
below). DIN rail clips and wall mount brackets are available for purchase from Advan-
tech.
Figure 2.1 Installing Wall Mount Plates
The IMC-574I-SFP can be mounted with two DIN rail clips, (available from Advant-
ech). The DIN rail clips include screws to allow the installation on a DIN rail. Install
the screws into DIN rail clips (can be mounted parallel or perpendicular to the DIN
rail). Snap the converter onto the clips. To remove the converter from the DIN rail,
use a flat-head screwdriver into the slot to gently pry the converter from the rail.
Note! DIN rail clips are designed for use on a DIN-35 rail.

Configuration Method Description
4-Port Switch (Default) In this mode, the unit acts as a standard 4-port MAC-layer switch.
Dual Converter Mode In this mode, the unit functions as two independent (SFP to TX)
media converters and traffic never passes between the two con-
verters.
1+1 SFP Protection
Non-Revertive Mode
In this mode, the “SFP A” port (fiber or copper) is connected
through the switch to the drop ports as the main link. The “SFP B”
port (fiber or copper) is active into the MAC switch, but no connec-
tion inside the switch is made. In this way, the “SFP B” line is held
as the standby line. The “SFP B” line is held in the LINK state for
testing and line verification, but does not actively carry user data.
When a fault is detected on the active line, all customer traffic is
switched to the “SFP B” port. With non-Revertive mode, data is not
resumed by “SFP A” port until SFP B fails or is disconnected.
1+1 SFP Protection
Revertive Mode
In this mode, the “SFP A” port (fiber or copper) is connected
through the switch to the drop ports as the main link. The “SFP B”
port (fiber or copper) is active into the MAC switch, but no connec-
tion inside the switch is made. In this way, the “SFP B” line is held
as the standby line. The “SFP B” line is held in the LINK state for
testing and line verification, but does not actively carry user data.
When a fault is detected on the active line, all customer traffic is
switched to the “SFP B” port. Once the “A” port is no longer in a
fault condition, data is resumed on that port.
Note! Revertive and Non-Revertive modes can only operate on ports with
SFPs; not the fixed copper ports.
