Introduction
The 16 Slots intelligent converter chassis is a combination of 16-slot host
cabinet and several of optional media converter bracket modules. A maximum
16-bracket module can be installed in the cabinet with two redundant power
supplies. The Power supply supports AC input type with load sharing
redundant feature. The converter supports TS-1000 standard that provides
loop back test to ensure the converter failure and remote configuration that
allows remote set-up for the module of the converter or the converter.
With build-in Web-based Management, managing and configuring the 16 Slots
intelligent converter chassis becomes easier. Users can visually configure and
manage their network via the Web browser. Besides, the 16 Slots intelligent
converter chassis can also be managed via Telnet, Console, or third-party
SNMP Management.

Management Methods
The 16 Slots intelligent converter chassis supports following management
methods:
Console and Telnet Management
Web-based Management
SNMP Network Management
Console and Telnet Management
Console Management is done through the RS-232 Console Port that requires a
direct connection between PC and the Device. Once the Device is on the
network, you can use Telnet program to Log in and modify the configuration.
The default IP address is 192.168.1.77 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
This default address can be used to login and change the configuration using
Telnet.
Web-based Management
The 16 Slots intelligent converter chassis provides an embedded HTML web
program in flash memory. It offers advanced management features and allows
users to manage the 16 Slots intelligent converter chassis from anywhere on
the network through any HTTP browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
For more information, please see the section of Web-Based Management.
SNMP Network Management
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides a way to monitor and
control network device, such as configurations, statistic collection, performance,
and security.
Data is collected by SNMP agents, which are hardware & software processes
reporting activity in each network device. The agent reports information
contained in a MIB format (Management Information Base), which is a data
structure that defines what is obtainable from the device and what can be
controlled.
