Overview
The CV10x series Ethernet media converters
include the following models:
AT-CV101
AT-CV102
AT-CV102/1
AT-CV102/2
The CV10x series Ethernet media converter line
cards are designed to extend the distance of
your network by interconnecting LAN devices
that are physically separated by large distances.
The range of line cards support both multi-mode
and single-mode fiber pairs, at distances up to
40km. Compliant with IEEE standards, these
converters will inter-operate with other
standards-based media converters, switches, fiber
interface cards, etc over the fiber optic cable.
Extend the Distance of Ethernet
Each CV10x series media converter line card
features a 100TX twisted pair port and a 100FX
optical port. The twisted pair port has an RJ-45
connector and a maximum operating distance of
100 meters (328 feet). Depending on the
model, the media converter card can operate in
multi-mode or single-mode fiber over various
distances up to 40km.These cards can operate at
half and full-duplex.
The AT-CV101 fiber optic port has a multi-mode
fiber ST connector and a maximum operating
distance of 2km (1.24 miles).
The AT-CV102 fiber optic port has a multi-mode
fiber SC connector and a maximum operating
distance of 2km (1.24 miles).
The AT-CV102/1 fiber optic port has a single-
mode fiber SC connector and a maximum
operating distance of 15km (9.32 miles).
The AT-CV102/2 fiber optic port has a single-
mode fiber SC connector and a maximum
operating distance of 40km (24.85 miles).
Flexible Deployment
The CV10x series of line cards can be installed in
the complete range of Converteon chassis’,
allowing them to be deployed in a stand-alone
fashion (AT-CV1000), or in a multi-slot chassis 
(AT-CV5000). When deployed in a multi-slot
chassis, the line cards can be unmanaged, or
managed with the inclusion of at least one
management card in the chassis. In unmanaged
mode, the line cards can be easily configured using
DIP switches, whereas in a managed chassis, all the
configuration can be performed remotely.
Whatever the chassis, the line cards can be hot
swapped providing the network manager with a
mechanism to simply perform moves/adds/
changes without having to power down other
parts of the network.
MissingLink
TM
and Smart MissingLink
TM
(SML)
The MissingLink (ML) feature allows the ports
on the media converter blade to pass the ‘Link’
status of their connections to each other. When
the media converter detects a problem with one
of the ports, such as the loss of connection to a
node, it shuts down the connection to the other
port, thus notifying the node that the connection
has been lost. Smart MissingLink (SML)
is when a link is lost on a port, the Link LED of
the port which still has a valid connection to its
end node starts to blink.These features allow
network administrators to quickly troubleshoot
network problems.
