Media Converter Operation modes

A Plasma Cloud Media Converter can operate in several modes depending on your setup and licensing:

Stand-alone

The device operates as a standard Media Converter, without cloud management options.

Cloud Insights

When connected to a compatible Plasma Cloud Switch model, selected cloud monitoring and management features can be unlocked for the Media Converter on the Plasma Cloud Console called Cloud Insights. Learn details here. 

Cloud-managed

With an active cloud license, the Media Converter can be added to your Plasma Cloud network and managed entirely via the Plasma Cloud Console, offering complete remote control and monitoring. An overview of all Media Converter cloud management options can be found in the Media Converter Details Page  article.
