Versatile 4 port device
Converts 10/100/1000Mbps copper to fixed gigabit fiber
Converts 10/100/1000Mbps copper to SFP on some models; SFP can
support 100Mpbs fiber, 1000Mbps fiber or 10/100/1000Mbps,
1000Mbps copper.
Supports Jumbo Frames (up to 10240 bytes)
Extended temperature
The IE-iMcV-MultiWay is a modular, CPE device providing two fixed
10/100/1000Base-T copper ports and 2 SFP ports. The SFP ports
support fiber or copper SFPs. A console port and on-board DIP
Switches provide configuration and mode options for the module.
The IE-iMcV-MultiWay provides OAM functionality with 802.3ah and
802.1ag support on each port. As an Industrial Ethernet device, it
supports an extended temperature range of -40° to +85° C.
IE-iMcV-MultiWay supports four distinct DIP switch-selectable
configurations:
• 1+1 Uplink Protection, revertive
• 1+1 Uplink Protection, non-revertive
• A four port gigabit switch
• A dual copper to fiber SFP media/mode converter
As a 4-port device, it can be deployed with fiber redundancy (with or
without 1+1 uplink protection) and status monitoring with management
on all ports via SNMP, which now offers OAM for mission-critical
applications. It can also be installed as dual 10/100/1000 Mbps copper
to fiber media converter (utilized as two separate converters).
The IE-iMcV-MultiWay supports 10/100/1000 Mbps and 1 Gbps copper
and 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps optical SFP modules, providing greater
flexibility in network environments. The hot-swappable nature of SFPs
and the numerous fiber modes and types that are available allow for
easy configuration and future upgrading as network demands evolve.
The IE-iMcV-MultiWay offers a full feature set including Auto
Negotiation, Selective Advertising, AutoCross (on copper ports), VLANs,
loopback testing and OAM. Software updates can be downloaded
through TFTP or iView2 (iConfig view).

ie-iMcV-MultiWay in action:
A Brazilian city’s transportation department responsible for its subways, ships, boats
and buses needed to add IP video surveillance equipment to its network to monitor
and manage people movement. Networking the remote IP surveillance cameras to
the central office had requirements and challenges: cameras would be outdoors,
needed remote management capabilities and secure connectivity up to 30Km away.
The customer had already invested in a chassis-based media converter infrastructure
and preferred a DC powersolution for reliability. Additionally, the video collected at the
copper-port-based cameras would have to be converted for long distance fiber optic
transmission back to the copper-port servers at the central office.
the solution:
iMcV-Gigabit copper-to-fiber media converters were installed in the existing six-
slot chassis to connect the two central office servers. At both camera locations, a
four-port IE-iMcV-MultiWay converter with SNMP and rugged temperature specs
was installed in an extended-temperature, DC-powered chassis, then housed in a
NEMA enclosure at the base of a pole where the IP camera was mounted on top.
One copper port on the MultiWay connected the copper-port-based IP camera.
The fiber connection emanated from the converter installed at the central office,
connecting point-to-point through the two fiber ports on each MultiWay converter
installed at each camera, and then continued back to the central office.
