The ION S3220 is a stand-alone managed Network Interface Device (NID) that provides an interface between 10/100/1000Base-TX ports and 1000Base-SX/LX ports, allowing users to manage their links while integrating fiber optic cabling into 10/100/1000 copper environments. As a remotely managed device, the S3220 can be managed individually via an IP address or it can be managed in-band, over the fiber when linked to a C3220 card installed in a managed ION chassis. With advanced features like IEEE 802.3ah Link OAM, VLAN, QoS, SSH/SSL, jumbo frame support, and bandwidth allocation, the S3220 offers a variety of methods for the secure delivery of Ethernet services in business and mobile backhaul applications.
