Prisma DS3/E3/STS-1 LineTerm Media Converters
Prisma
DS3/E3/STS-1 LineTerm Media Converters are designed for
Telecommunications service providers as well as enterprise campus networks utilizing
DS3/E3/STS-1 coaxial circuits. These modules enable users to convert coax media to
single-mode or multi-mode fiber and extend the distance of data transmissions over
networks up to 80 km.
Available with remote management via the fiber port, DS3/E3/STS-1 LineTerm modules enable
network managers to conduct loopback testing, to monitor, and to manage units located up to 80
km away. Cisco management technology functions transparently to the user data, providing real-
time, end-to-end management at all times. Signal Loss conditions are propagated using the
standards-compliant AIS signal.
As an SNMP management application, PrismaView gives network managers the ability to monitor
and control all Prisma media converters. PrismaView runs standalone on Windows NT/XP/2000, as
a standalone Java Application for other operating systems, in conjunction with HP OpenView, as a
Web Server running under IIS, or as a Java Web Servlet.
