Lantronix IONPS6-D ION Media Conversion Platform - Page 4

The ION Advantage Incorporating the industry's most comprehensive offering of full-featured products, the ION Platform is the best choice for IT managers or service providers needing to integrate, optimize and navigate their network. The ION Platform offers flexibility with modular or stand-alone units as well as 1-slot, 2-slot, 6-slot or 19-slot chassis options for low- or highdensity applications. A variety of slide-in interface devices and converter modules support Layer 1 and Layer 2 Ethernet networks (100Base, 10/100, 1000Base, 10/100/1000 and 10 Gig Ethernet) and TDM networks (DS1 - T1/E1/J1 and DS3 - T3/E3). Because media converters typically have no IP or Mac address, they are generally transparent to the network, inexpensive, and easy to use. Transition Networks' enhanced features make them even easier by providing visibility to network managers, enabling simple remote troubleshooting and quick service restoration. ION Platform Features • Managed intelligent chassis (1U 6-slot chassis and 2U 19-slot chassis) • Comprehensive offering of hot-swappable fiber integration modules accommodate most applications • Desktop 1-slot and 2-slot ION chassis allows slide-in cards to be deployed as stand-alone units • Optional ION Management Module provides access via CLI, WEB, SNMP, or Focal Point • High speed management backplane separates management data from network traffic for added security • Link Pass Through feature facilitates troubleshooting by notifying end devices of a loss link • Remote Fault Detect feature allows remote monitoring of fiber link status • Loopback feature allows local or remote diagnostics to simplify testing and troubleshooting • Automatic Link Restoration re-establishes the link without user intervention after a failure is restored • Last Gasp feature stores power to send an SNMP trap alert in the event of a power failure • Single fiber solutions optimize fiber utilization to reduce capital expenditures • Integrated LEDs for at-a-glance monitoring of power supplies and slide-in-modules • Redundant instant failover rear loading power supplies • Operating environment: 0˚C to 50˚C (32˚F to 122˚F) • Supports 100-240 VAC and -48 VDC power environments • Optional dry contact relay module for visual and audible alarms • Variable speed fans for efficient cooling and reduced power consumption • Exposed slot numbers to aid in identification and management of devices • Supports backwards compatibility with Point System™ modules via adapter card ION Management Module The ION Management System No two networks are managed in the same manner - different security levels and management interfaces are often required depending on the particular deployment within a network. With that in mind, the ION management system was designed to be one of the most versatile and secure management systems available in the market today. To take full advantage of all the features and functions available within the ION management system, an ION Management Module is required to be installed in either the 6-slot or the 19-slot ION Chassis. The ION Management Module connects to the chassis backplane and communicates with the individual cards installed in the ION chassis. Each slide-in module has specific features and functions that are controlled from the chassis via the ION Management Module. Only management traffic is sent across the ION chassis backplane to maintain security; therefore, no customer data traffic is shared on the backplane. A network administrator can configure, monitor and troubleshoot ION slidein modules remotely via the ION Management Module. The ability to navigate the system through this remote management module helps to reduce operating expenses by eliminating unnecessary technician dispatches. Remote management also allows for faster Mean Time To Repair (MTTR) by proactively receiving traps and alerts on potential issues. With less down-time you can optimize productivity and focus on the revenue generating aspects of your business. 3 TAA Compliant | USA Based Company | 24 / 7 Technical Support
