IMC Networks Sends 10 Gigabit Media Converter Solution for Long-Haul Networks

IMC Networks, a leading manufacturer of low cost media converters and Ethernet fiber optic access solutions, today announced the release of the new iMcV-10G-Converter XFP/XFP media converter. Ideal for telecom and enterprise customers, the SNMP manageable converter can be employed in fiber mode conversion and/or fiber extension applications. Using high-speed XFP transceivers that are protocol independent and support multiple distances allow network operators increased flexibility when installing the iMcV-10G-Converter into their 10 GbE applications

David Zaveski, Sr. Technical Sales Engineer, said, "The days of bonding multiple 1 Gig connections together to accommodate the bandwidth needs between switches is over. 10 Gig equipment is now economically priced and more efficient. Our new iMcV-10G-Converter fits into these types of applications where mixing and matching different types of media are required."

The iMcV-10G-Converter offers an array of advanced features including user selectable FX LinkLoss, Configuration Control and XFP Loopback. Support for 3R’s (Re-amplify, Re-shape, Re-time) optical signal regeneration is also standard. When installed in a chassis and paired with a SNMP Management Module, network operators can monitor XFP status such as temperature, voltage, and output power, in addition to configuring features and Trap notifications. Both ports on the module support copper, fiber and variable speed XFP modules.
