The use of management tools in media-converted networks is unavoidable once they reach a certain size. This step enables remote network control and configuration directly from the network operation center (NOC).

AMS Technologies’ media converter platforms offer in-band and out-of-band management accessible by RS 232 and USB locally, and by Telnet, Web, SNMP or IEEE 802.3ah OAM remotely. We distinguish between the MEF Media Converter Platform and the 10G Media Converter Platform.
