Omnitron Systems 8200-3 iConverter 19-Module Chassis w/3 Universal AC Power Supplies

Overview
The iConverter 19-Module Chassis is designed for Enterprise Local Area Network (LAN) and Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) applications where fault tolerance and a high-density rack footprint are essential. The 2U (3.5 inch) high iConverter 19-Module Chassis supports up to three power supplies for redundancy, and can be mounted in a 19-inch or 23-inch rack.

The 19-Module Chassis features up to three hot-swappable, redundant power supplies. Universal AC, 24VDC and 48VDC powering options are available. The power supplies operate in load-sharing mode to reduce the burden on each power supply to extend the lifetime and fault tolerance. Power supplies are available to support different chassis capacities and cooling requirements.

Power is provided to the nineteen iConverter modules installed in the chassis via the chassis backplane. When used with an iConverter management module, the management capabilities include the ability to monitor the voltage, current and temperature of each power supply. Any out-of-range violation can trigger an SNMP trap to allow quick corrective maintenance.

In addition to handling the power and management data for each iConverter module, the 19-Module Chassis backplane allows sharing of Ethernet data between the individual modules. iConverter modules that are installed in adjacent slots and equipped with Ethernet backplane ports have the ability to connect to each other via the chassis’ Ethernet backplane and facilitate a variety of flexible management options including unmanaged, out-of-band managed, inband managed and multi-port configurations.

The high reliability of the redundant power system combined with its AC and DC power options and its ability to hold nineteen modules in a 2U height make the iConverter 19-Module Chassis the ideal choice in the core of an enterprise, in a Central Office (CO) or for Point of Presence (POP) applications where reliability and space are critical.

The iConverter 19-Module Chassis supports the entire family of iConverter fiber media converters. All iConverter modules are hot swappable and support multiple mounting options.

MANAGEMENT

Management provides remote configuration, monitoring and trap notification. Management of the chassis and modules is accomplished by installing an iConverter Management Module (NMM2) or Network Interface Device (NID) in the same chassis.

The Management Module can be accessed via SNMP, Telnet and serial port. The chassis and modules can be managed with Omnitron’s intuitive, graphic-oriented NetOutlook SNMP Management Software or third party SNMP management software. Management via the Telnet and the serial interfaces have an easy-to-use, menu-driven interface.
