2GXM2 Standalone Module QUICK START GUIDE

The Omnitron

iConverter

®

2GXM2 media converter and Network Interface Device

(NID) with integrated management provides

Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-X) SFP fiber-to-fiber

media conversion.
The 2GXM2 conforms to Ethernet in the First

Mile (EFM) fiber standards to support Fiber-to-

the-X (FTTX) in Metropolitan and Enterprise LAN

networks. Built-in Operation, Administration and

Maintenance (OAM) functionality enables the

2GXM2 to operate as a managed demarcation

point at the customer premises and network edge,

offering Quality of Service capability.
The 2GXM2 can be managed using Omnitron’s

NetOutlook

TM

SNMP Management

Software, third-party SNMP Client, Telnet or the Command Line Interface (CLI).

IMPORTANT

The firmware of the Network Management Module (NMM or NMM2) and

NetOutlook must be the same or greater than the firmware on the 2GXM2 for

the module to be managed.

INSTAllATION PROCEDURE

1) Configure DIP-Switches
2) Install Standalone Module and Connect Cables

The CLI interface allows for the detailed configuration of the module. It is recommended

to configure the module with an IP address associated with the attached network.

Also, SNMP traphost address should be configured if the module is managed with

an SNMP-based Management System. See the 2GXM2 User Manual for complete

information.

4) VERIFy OPERaTION

Once the module has been installed and configured per steps 1 - 3, verify the module

is operational by viewing the LED indicators.
The Power LED indicates the module is receiving power.
The Fiber Optic link LEDs indicate the fiber optic connections have been established.

Verify the Link Mode selection is set to Link Segment (LS). Until a stable link is

established, leave the Link Mode configured for LS. After a Link presence is established,

the Link Mode selection can be modified.
