Overview

The ION C3100 is a fibre to fibre media converter module. It is protocol independent and supports data rates from 100Mbps to 2.5Gbps through two open SFP slots. This any-rate to same-rate converter can be used to perform reliable and cost-effective single mode to multimode fibre conversion or it can be used to provide wavelength conversion in CWDM applications. The ION C3100 is a manageable device when installed in a managed ION chassis.

The ION C3100 may also be used as a singlemode to multimode, same rate converter, or to convert to a single bi-directional fibre. The x3100 is a “similar rate” to “similar rate” converter with no rate conversions. The x3100 is protocol
independent. Rate configuration is not required. LPT is always enabled.

Accessing the C3100
The C3100 can be accessed through the IONMM installed in the ION chassis along with the C3100.
The network connection can be done via a Telnet session or a Web graphical user interface (GUI).

Access via Local Serial Interface (USB)
The IONMM can be connected to a local management station (PC) through a serial interface using a USB
connection. The IONMM and the C3100 can be controlled by entering command line interface (CLI)
commands at the local management station. To use the serial interface (USB) the following is required:
• Personal computer (PC)
• USB cable (type A male connector on one end and type B male connector on the other)
• Terminal emulator program (e.g., HyperTerminal) on the PC
• USB driver installed on the PC
• Configured COM port
