Overview
The Fiber Driver® EM316FC400 module extends the power of the Optical
Multi-Service Platform to high capacity Storage Array Networks using
up to 4 Gbps Fibre Channel traffic. The EM316FC400 covers all three
Fibre Channel formats as defined by FCIA, including 1, 2, and 4 Gbps, for
transport of native Fibre Channel and FICON traffic.
The EM316FC400 is a compact one-slot module with two SFP interface
ports. Installation and setup is simple plug-n-play, and the module is hotswappable in any powered Fiber Driver chassis. Simply insert the SFP
transceivers required for the wavelength and distance of the application,
and then connect to the network.
EM316LNXNM-OT network management
- SNMP support
- MegaVision Pro® support (through SNMP)
- Command line interface (CLI) administration
Powerful management support
- Automatic rate detection and clock recovery circuitry
- Link Integrity Notification (LIN) support
- Module loopback
- Optical Performance Monitoring - Digital Diagnostics
(SFF-8472)
EM316FC400 connection types change by hot-swapping SFP transceivers.
The portable transceivers may be reused with other modular Fiber
Driver equipment. Sharing backup devices reduces inventory needs and
maximizes the return on investment (ROI).

Media Converters
Repeaters and Optimizers
MRV offers a wide range of SFPs compatible with the
EM316FC400. The transceiver ranges include multi-mode
and single-mode, either short-haul or long-haul. There are
also SFPs for Coarse or Dense Wave Division Multiplexing.
The choice of SFPs defines the module functionality,
allowing it to operate in several modes.
- Media converter for extended range (multi-mode to
single-mode)
- xWDM transponder (MM/SM access to CWDM/DWDM
network line)
- Repeater (long haul single-mode gray or xWDM on each
interface)
The EM316FC400 is transparent to edge device speed
negotiation processes, and it automatically adjusts its
clock recovery (CDR) circuits to the appropriate rate of 1,
2, or 4 Gbps.
The module is designed with administration and installation
in mind. It requires no provisioning, as a truly an out-ofbox plug-and-play solution.
The EM316FC400 also offers advanced module loopback
capabilities on each interface, which eases the challenge
of validating the installation, debugging the optical link,
and finding potential faults on either the client or line
interface.
The EM316FC400 offers Link Integrity Notification (LIN),
the Fiber Driver® status propagation mechanism that
enables link-dependent devices to route network traffic
intelligently and transparently in a SAN or other sensitive
network.
The module fully supports the SFP MSA standard including
full optical performance monitoring (OPM) based on
Digital Diagnostics according to SFF-8472. The advanced
OPM detects optical link degradation that may be caused
by bad connectors or splices, old fiber, or other issues.
Discovering link weakness before imminent failure can
save significant operational expenses.
The EM316FC400 supports SNMP and command line
interface (CLI) through the EM316LNXNM-OT Fiber Driver®
Network Management module. Although manageable
through any SNMP network management system,
MegaVision Pro® adds a unique graphical user interface
(GUI) for all MRV Fiber Driver devices including the
EM316FC400. Administrators have a powerful alternative
to the CLI through windows that mirror the actual Fiber
Driver modules being managed. Information available for
the EM316FC400 includes SFP status, real-time wavelength
access, hardware configuration, and other vendor-specific
information.
