TheiConverter 4TxVT10/100 managedEthernetswitchmodule
is a member of the iConverter product family. It provides a
compact 4-Port 10/100 Ethernet switch that is expandable
across the iConverter 19-Module, 5-Module and 2-Module
chassis backplanes, as well as being supported as a
stand-alone switch with the iConverter 1-Module Chassis.
TheiConverter 4Tx VT supports the IEEE 802.1Q and 802.1p
standards. It supports the 802.1Q VLAN packet tagging and
untagging for segregating data in Enterprise networks, and
enabling secure separation of Service Provider network
management and customer data to improve security and
intrusionprotection.
The 802.1Q Q-in-Q stacked tags enable Service Providers to
offer to their customers secure Ethernet Virtual Private Line
services which isolates each customer’s data traffic, as well
astheService Provider’smanagement traffic.
The4Tx VTsupports the802.1p prioritizationforthedeliveryof
Qualityof Service(QoS) toreal-time applicationssuch asvoice
orvideo overEthernet.
The iConverter 4Tx VT features Bandwidth and Port Access
Controls. On a per port basis, the upstream and downstream
traffic can be independently controlled by selecting from eight
levels of bandwidth setting. The PortAccess Control enables
thenetworkadministrator to easilycontrol and denyindividual
port access while maintaining port configuration for easy port
re-enabling.
The ports feature 10/100Mbps, Half/Full-Duplex, and auto-
negotiationwithbothhardwareandsoftwarecontrols. Hardware
control is available for two ports while all four ports are under
software control for these features. RJ-45 crossover support
eliminatesneedforacrossovercable andfacilitatesconnectivity
to different types of network equipment. All four ports support
anautomaticcrossover detectionmode.

The4TxVT supportsreportingof MIB statistics. Statisticsare
available for 32 variables per port, reporting a wide range of
real-time packet statistics to provide performance and
operationalmonitoring.
