The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-1 converter is perfect for telecommunications, services networks, and
enterprise campus networks utilizing DS3/E3/STS-1 coaxial circuits in high-speed data net-
working. The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-1 enables users to convert coax media to single-mode fiber
so they can extend the distance of data transmissions over MAN access networks up to 100
km. The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-1 can also be used for premises network applications to convert
the in-coming circuit to multi-mode fiber for distribution into the structured cabling system.
Available with remote management via the fiber port, iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-1 products enable
network managers to conduct loopback testing, to monitor, and to manage units located
up to 100 km away at a remote location. Since IMC Networks’ management technology
functions transparently to the frame format, customers will not experience overhead or
loss of a data channel typically associated with remote management or SNMP polling.
Customer traffic will always be full bit rate.

iMcV-DS3/E3/STS-1 modules make troubleshooting easy by including:
• A line integrity test feature
• The FiberAlert feature that notes the loss of one strand of fiber at the receiver end,
• The FiberAlert feature that notes the loss of one strand of fiber at the receiver end,
then stops transmitting data and the link signal until a signal or link pulse is received
• Two modes of operation (fiber and coax) for loopback testing
• The Transmit Data Source diagnostic feature which sends specific patterns of
• The Transmit Data Source diagnostic feature which sends specific patterns of
data (transmit all unframed ones; transmit a pattern of zeros and ones; transmit a
Pseudorandom Bit Sequence [PRBS]) to determine problems with the cable.
Easily configure and manage converters with the GUI-based iView²:
As an SNMP management application, iView² gives network managers the ability to moni-
tor and control IMC Networks’ products.
iView² runs standalone on Windows
NT/XP/2000, as a standalone Java
Application for other operating systems,
as a snap-in module for HP OpenView,
as a Web Server running under IIS or
as a Java Web Servlet. For assistance in
