The Lantech MC-116-RPS chassis is a universal chassis which allows mixed installation of managed and unmanaged converters, it provides one installed power and an extra power slot for redundancy as well as three hot-swappable fans. There are various modules to satisfy the demand of users, which include Fiber converter series (CM-011A) and Gigabit converter series (CM-121).
All the converters and redundant power supply supports plug-and-play and hot-swappable features which allow user to plug or pull out the converters/ redundant power supply without rebooting the chassis. The MC-116-RPS can also be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack.
Lantech CM-011A-SC/ST/WDM fiber converters are used in extending the transmitting distance which is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3 & 802.3u standards.
