Hardware Information This chapter provides information on the external layout and pre- installed hardware components of the aTCA-8202. The following illustrations present an aTCA-8202 shelf and are intended for reference only. The figures below may differ from your actual shelf configuration.
2.3 Backplane The aTCA-8202 shelf comes with a cBP-5020 backplane featuring two AdvancedTCA slots that do not support rear I/O functionality and a dedicated slot for an aCMM-2200 Shelf Management Hub. Features Dual-star topology Base Interface Dual-star topology Fabric Interface...
2.4 Cooling System Fan Tray Module The aTCA-8202 shelf is equipped with one fan tray module that has three fans to provide optimum cooling for AdvancedTCA blades. The hot-swappable fan tray module is located at the right of the shelf with air flow from right to left (push cooling).
2.5 Power Supply The aTCA-8202 comes with single built-in 650W TSJ7000-Z power supply. Specifications Input Voltage 100-240VAC Current 7.9-3.5A Frequency 47-63Hz Output Voltage 48.0V@13.5A Max Power Output 650 W Hardware Information...

Important Safety Instructions chapter of this manual. The aTCA-8202 contains electrostatically sensitive equipment that can be easily damaged by static electricity. The equipment must be handled on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator must wear an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat.
The same insertion/removal procedures apply to filler blades, with the exception that filler blades do not have levers. The aTCA-8202 is designed with two slots that support ATCA blades. ATCA connectors are rigid and require careful handling and proper installation. ATCA blades are equipped with locking handles and retention screws for easy installation and removal.
After installing all necessary components, you are now ready to power up the system. To connect the aTCA-8202 to an AC power source: 1. Insert the AC power plug into the socket at the rear of the shelf and push the circuit breaker to the right to set it to the ON position.
3.5 Managing the Shelf aCMM-2200 Shelf Management Hub The aTCA-8202 is equipped with one aCMM-2200 Shelf Manage- ment Hub (ShMH) to provide shelf management functionality. When an aCMM-2200 ShMH is NOT installed in the shelf, all fans in the fan tray module will rotate at full speed (Level 15).
The aCMM-2200 ShMH COM port is set with the following default parameters: Type RS232 (COM) Baud Rate 115200bps Data Bits Parity None Stop Bits Flow Control None LAN Connection Using a Fast Ethernet connection, you may connect the ShMH directly to a notebook or PC using an RJ-45 cable or to a network switch or router for high-speed remote management.
Temperature Management The aTCA-8202 shelf has two temperature sensors on the left and right sides of the backplane. The aCMM-2200 ShMH automatically detects these sensors and the temperature sensors on installed ATCA blades. The ShMH uses these sensor readings to dynami- cally adjust the fan speed to maintain safe shelf and blade temper- atures.

Level 15 to provide maximum cooling. Non-recoverable Threshold When a temperature sensor monitored by the ShMH issues an alarm that a device (shelf or blade) has exceeded the non-recoverable threshold, the ShMH will shut down all blades to protect them from damage.
