CONVERTERS AND CONNECTIVITY
The SPH-16 is a managed SFP patch hub that
connects 16 Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps) and
Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) copper sockets
(RJ-45) to any standard SFP device.
The SFP patch hub works with standard SFPs
from any vendor, including RAD’s special
“System on an SFP” devices (MiRICi, MiTOP) as
well as with Ethernet switches featuring RJ-45
connectors.
The SFP patch hub provides users a high degree
of flexibility by enabling them to use any SFP
device instead of expensive dedicated SFPs.
The SPH-16 can also be used as an Ethernet
copper-to-fiber converter, extending the reach
of Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet networks.
SNMP management
The SPH-16 can be managed via an ASCII
terminal, a PC running a Web browser, a Telnet
host, or an SNMP-based network management
station. It provides SNMP management for I

parameters of standard SFP devices and enables
software downloads to the SFPs. In addition to
enabling flow control via a back pressure
mechanism, the SFP patch hub supports major
and minor alarm reports, and features LED
status indicators to facilitate system diagnostics.
