The ION C3210 device provides an interface between 10/100/1000Base-T ports and 1000Base-SX/LX ports allowing users to integrated fiber optic cabling into 10/100/1000Base-T copper environments. - Intergrate fiber into copper based networking environments - Can be used in any ION Platform Chassis - Bridging legacy 10/100 devices into a Gigabit Backbone - Secure Uni-directional transmission - Standards based, will link with any standard 10/100/1000Base-T and any standard 1000Base-SX or LX ports - Copper and Fiber Auto-Negotiation - Switch Selectable Speeds - AutoCross™ Automatically detects and configures the twisted pair port on the converter to the correct MDI or MDI-X configuration. - Link Pass Through Link Pass Through is a troubleshooting feature that allows the media converter to monitor both the fiber and copper RX ports for loss of signal. - Remote Fault Detect - Pause (IEEE 802.3xy) Pause signaling is an IEEE feature that temporarily suspends data transmission between two devices in the event that one of the devices becomes overwhelmed. - Automatic Link Restoration Transition Networks's converters will automatically re-establish link in all network conditions. - IEEE 802.1P QoS, IPv4 TOS/Diffserv, IPv6 traffic class - IEEE 802.1q VLAN, tagging and doubling tagging (Q in Q) - Remote Firmware Upgrade - Virtual Cable Test on UTP port - Uni-directional data transmission - Bandwidth Allocation An important feature found on select converters which allows network administrators to set the bandwidth of the converter to 64KB increments via SNMP management. - DMI, digital diagnostics per SFF-8472 - RMON counters for each port
