iConverter 4Tx and 4Tx VT Manageable Media Converters

The iConverter 4Tx and 4Tx VT are compact, manageable 4-port 10/100 Ethernet Switches with backplane ports for expansion to adjacent modules. They provide true plug-and-play capability with Auto-negotiation and Auto-crossover features that eliminate the need for manual port configuration and crossover cables. When used in a 2 or 5-Module Chassis with a self-managed fiber converter NID module, the 4Tx and 4Tx VT provide managed, high-density copper hand-offs from a fiber uplink. They can also be used as unmanaged standalone switches in a 1-Module iConverter chassis. The iConverter 4Tx features Port VLAN, Port Access Control and reporting of MIB Statistics. The 4Tx VT extends the capabilities of the 4Tx with per-port based Bandwidth Control and support of the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN (including Q-in-Q multi-stacking) and the IEEE 802.1p QoS standards.
