GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The Omnitron iConverter
®
10/100M is a carrier-class media converter and a Network Interface Device (NID)
that provides 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX (10/100) to 100BASE-FX Fiber media conversion with integrated
management.
management.
The 10/100M conforms to Ethernet in the First Mile (EFM) fiber standards to support Fiber-to-the-X
(FTTX) Metropolitan access and Enterprise LAN networks. 10/100M media converters are used to provide
managed copper demarcation points at the customer premises and network edge, offering service provisioning
functions, such as, Quality of Service and Bandwidth Control (rate-limiting) capabilities.

SNMP
Network Management Software, third-party SNMP clients and Telnet. The management IP address is
configured manually or as a DHCP client in the configuration menu. IP-less remote management is supported
via 802.3ah OAM or Secure OAM protocol. A menu-driven CLI is accessible via Telnet, serial console
port, or a modem connection to the serial console port.

IMPORTANT
This manual provides information on the installation and configuration of the module using the command
line interface (serial console). For ongoing network management, Omnitron Systems recommends
NetOutlook, an SNMP-based Network Management Software.

NetOutlook provides an efficient, user-friendly way to configure, monitor and manage devices installed
on a single network or on a series of networks by providing an intuitive graphical display with real-time
status and alarm (trap) information. The user can easily manage iConverter equipment on a large
Enterprise network or Metropolitan Area network (MAN) from a single location without the need of
additional resources.
