PacketStar PSAX 4500 Multiservice Media Gateway Functional Description Chassis The PSAX 4500 chassis is a dc-powered, fully redundant 19- or 23-inch rack- mountable chassis. The physical dimensions are 17.5 inches wide, 15.75 inches high, and 15 inches deep.
  • Page 53: Module Slot Locations

    Chapter 2 Hardware Description Functional Description modules reside below the cable turndown loops and air filter compartment in the middle of the chassis. The rear panel provides power and ground termi- nations for the chassis and additional module slots for future enhancements. The chassis includes a midplane printed circuit board (PCB) designed to pro- vide an interface between the front and rear panel slots.
  • Page 54: Power Supply Modules

    Chapter 2 Hardware Description Functional Description The maximum bus capacity of the system can be 9.6 Gbps in a nonredundant system configuration. When a nonprotected system is configured, both Stra- tum modules would be required to carry 4.8 Gbps each with each bus run- ning at 1.2 Gbps.
  • Page 55: Stratum 3-4 Module

    Chapter 2 Hardware Description Functional Description The variable-speed fans are controlled through the Stratum modules. The Stratum modules sense the chassis temperature and change the fan speed to maintain air flow and temperature through the chassis. The fan speed also increases when the other fan stops operating due to failure or removal.

  • Page 60: Optimizing Module Placement

    Chapter 2 Hardware Description Optimizing Module Placement SVC retention preserves active ATM switched virtual connections (SVCs) and switched permanent virtual connections (SPVCs). However, virtual connec- tions on calls in a transient state will not be saved. To preserve active virtual connections, do not remove the active module while it is synchronizing with the redundant module.
  • Page 61: Hardware Specifications

    Chapter 2 Hardware Description Hardware Specifications • The midplane contains two buses that control the flow of data between the module slots. Even numbered slots transmit on the B bus and odd num- bered slots transmit on A bus. For example, to prevent traffic congestion, install two 1-Port OC-12c/STM-4c (with AQueMan or Traffic Shaping) modules side-by-side in the same segment to maintain the 1.2 Gbps data flow on each bus in a nonprotected configuration.
