If someone tells you media conversion is a commodity product that anyone can bring to market, they probably haven't looked at the extensive product suite offered by Transition Networks. With the industry's most comprehensive offering of full-featured products, Transition's media converters stand out as "the choice" among industry IT professionals. Generally, media converters are low-level OSI model devices with no IP or MAC addresses and therefore are transparent to the network. This "transparency" makes them very inexpensive and easy to use, but also can make troubleshooting the network very difficult. In an effort to overcome this difficulty and to make media converters "visible" to network managers, Transition has designed their full-featured products to include the most advanced features on the market today.PRODUCT FEATURES:Two selectable remote management modes: IP-Based remote management / In-Band OAM 802.3ah (remote device managed by local peer);SNMP v1, v2;AutoCross;Auto-Negotiation;Pause;Transparent Link Pass Through;Far-End-Fault;Remote Loopback;IEEE 802.1p QOS packet classification with 4 egress queues;Ipv4 IP TOS and DiffServ QOS classification, IPv6 Traffic class;IEEE 802.1q VLAN, 4096 entries;Static MAC, 64 entries;Double VLAN tagging (QinQ);IEEE 802.1x Port based security;RADIUS client;RMON counters for each port;Bandwidth allocation per port;DMI Optical Management;IPv4 IGMP v1/v2 snooping;USB port for basic setup;Cable diagnostic function for TP ports;8K MAC addresses;Remote Firmware Upgrade.
