The ION C3210 device provides an interface between 10/100/1000Base-T ports and 1000Base-SX/LX ports allowing users to integrate fiber optic cabling into 10/100/1000Base-T copper environments.

Operating at Layer 2, this converter not only converts copper to fiber, it also does Rate conversion, converting 10/100/1000Base-T copper to 1000Base fiber.

Applications include: integrate fiber into copper based networking environments and bridging legacy 10/100 devices into a Gigabit Backbone.

The C4110 is a fiber to fiber media converter module. It is protocol independent and supports data rates from 1Gbps to 11.5Gbps through two open SFP+ ports. This allows network managers to customize the C4110 with a pair of SFP+ modules to meet their network requirements. The open SFP+ port supports a wide variety of Transition Networks 10Gbps SFP+ fiber modules. This any-rate to same-rate converter can be used to perform reliable and cost-effective single mode to multimode conversion or it can be used to provide wavelength conversion in CWDM applications. The ION C4110 is a manageable device when installed in a managed ION chassis.

The x4120-1048 is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet copper to fiber media converter. It offers conversion technology by providing one 10GBase-T RJ-45 port
and one pluggable 10GBase-X fiber SFP+ port. The open SFP+ port supports a wide variety of Transition Networks 10GE SFP+ fiber modules, as well as third party MSA compatible SFP+ modules.

The x4120 provides several 10G Ethernet enterprise and data center connectivity solutions. Since most 10G Ethernet switches support a combination of copper RJ-45 and open SFP+ ports, the x4120 allows users to convert either of these ports to the media type of their reference to match their network requirements, including direct attached copper SFP+ cables.

The ION C4221 Network Interface Device (NID) is a remotely managed product that offers management via the ION Management Module for secure delivery of Ethernet services for business and mobile backhaul applications. The C4221 is a 10 Gig product with advanced features like remote management of the local and remote cards, VLAN, jumbo frame support, and bandwidth allocation of 10 Gig interfaces. The C4221 offers the additional functionality of a rate converter by also offering a 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 port allowing 10/100/1000 based devices to connect to 10 Gigabit Ethernet fiber backbone.
