10GBASE-T and 10GBASE-X SFP Dual Media Interfaces for Diversified Bandwidth Applications
The IXT-900-1X1T can reach speeds of up to 10Gbps over copper or fiber-optic cabling, greatly improving the performance of large data transmissions. Its built-in 10GBASE-T copper interface features 5-speed auto-negotiation (10G/5G/2.5G/1G/100) and can transmit data at 10Gbps over the existing Cat6/Cat6A UTP cabling, eliminating the need for expensive upgrades. With its Plug and Play design, installation is easy and hassle-free, so you can enjoy the speed you need without any extra effort.
The fiber-optic 10GBASE-X SFP+ interface supports 4 speeds, 10GBASE-SR/LR, 2500BASE-X, 1000BASE-SX/LX and 100BASE-FX, meaning the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver according to the transmission distance or the transmission speed required to extend the network efficiently.
Link Fault Pass-through
Link Fault Pass-through is a networking feature. It facilitates the detection and propagation of link faults or errors from one network device to another. It helps maintain network reliability and minimizes downtime by allowing devices to dynamically respond to link faults. Link Fault Pass-through improves fault detection and enables faster troubleshooting and resolution processes.
How it works:
- When a link fault occurs, the device experiencing the fault generates a notification.
- This notification is then forwarded to other connected devices using Link Fault Pass-through.
- Upon receiving the link fault information, the connected devices become aware of the fault.
- This awareness enables them to take appropriate actions, such as rerouting traffic or disabling the affected port.
Environmentally Hardened Design
With the IP40 industrial case, the IXT-900-1T1X provides a high level of immunity against electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found on plant floors or in curb-side traffic control cabinets without air conditioner. Being able to operate under the temperature range from -40 to 75 degrees C, the IXT-900-1T1X can be placed in almost any difficult environment.
Effective Alarm Alert for Better Protection
The IXT-900-1T1X supports a Fault Alarm feature which can alert the users when there is something wrong with the media converters. With this ideal feature, the users would not have to waste time to find where the problem is. It will help to save time and effort.
Network with Cybersecurity Helps Minimize Risks
The IXT-900-1X1T is equipped with enhanced cybersecurity features to fend off cyber threats and attacks. It supports SSHv2, TLSv1.2, and SNMPv3 protocols to provide strong protection against advanced threats. To safely transmit critical data to colleagues or customers, the IXT-900-1X1T’s cybersecurity feature protects network management and enhances the security of mission-critical networks without incurring any additional deployment cost or effort.
Redundant Ring, Fast Recovery for Critical Network Applications
The IXT-900 series supports software-based redundant ring technology and features strong, rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruption and external intrusions. It incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching) technology, ensuring rapid self-recovery in ring networks. With this advanced feature, the data link recovery time can be as fast as 500ms.
IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack Management
Supporting both IPv6 and IPv4 protocols, the IXT-900-1X1T help the enterprises and telecoms to step in the IPv6 era with the lowest investment as their network facilities need not be replaced or overhauled if the IPv6 FTTx edge network is set up.
SNMP for Comprehensive Network Monitoring and Centralized Control
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides network monitoring and management capabilities by gathering real-time information about network devices. By proactively identifying and addressing network issues, reliability and performance are improved. SNMP also facilitates centralized control of network devices, allowing for monitoring and configuration of multiple devices from a single location, reducing manual effort and enhancing operational efficiency.
Layer 2 Features
The device has a 16K-entry MAC address table that automatically removes inactive addresses. Its backbone supports speeds of up to 40Gbps, and it can handle Jumbo Frames up to 9K in size. The device is equipped with Storm Control to manage Broadcast/Multicast/Unknown-Unicast traffic to prevent excessive network flooding.
Efficient Traffic Control
The IXT-900-1X1T media converter boasts advanced QoS features and robust traffic management capabilities, optimizing the delivery of business-class data, voice, and video solutions. Its feature set includes broadcast/multicast/unicast storm control, per-port bandwidth control, and 802.1p CoS/DSCP/IP Precedence QoS priority and remarking. These capabilities guarantee optimal performance for VoIP and video stream transmission, maximizing the utilization of limited network resources for enterprises.
Intelligent SFP Diagnosis Mechanism
The IXT-900-1X1T supports the SFP-DDM (digital diagnostic monitor) function, which greatly helps network administrators easily monitor real-time parameters of the SFP transceivers. These parameters include optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias current, and transceiver supply voltage.
Remote Management Solution
PLANET's Universal Network Management System (UNI-NMS) and CloudViewerPro app support IT staff in remotely managing all network devices and monitoring the operation statuses of the IXT-900-1X1T. These systems are designed for both enterprises and industries where the deployments of the IXT-900-1X1T can be remote. This allows for bugs or faulty conditions to be found without having to go to the actual location. With UNI-NMS or CloudViewerPro app, all kinds of businesses can now be speedily and efficiently managed from one platform.
