    Installing the Modules Installing the EPIM To install an EPIM: When removing an EPIM, make sure to pull the module straight out so as not to NOTE damage the connector. 1. Remove the coverplate or the EPIM (whichever applies). 2. Slide your new EPIM into place, making sure the connectors on the rear of the module and inside the HUB attach properly.
  • Page 17: The Reset Switch

    The Reset Switch The Reset switch is located on the front panel, under the top plastic tab, as shown in Figure 2-4. (Under the right-side tab on the 9E138-36.) It serves two functions: • Pressing the Reset switch twice within three seconds causes the processor (i960) to reset.
  • Page 18: User-Accessible Components

    User-Accessible Components Figure 2-5 shows the various components that are accessible to the user. These consist of an eight-position dip switch (explained in the next section), replaceable PROMs and sockets for RAM. These will be used for future upgrades. Instructions for installing the components will be supplied with the upgrade kit.

    (FNB-1 or FNB-2). SmartSwitch 9000 modules connect to either the Internal Network Bus (INB) or the Flexible Network Bus (FNB) bus. The Ethernet MicroLan Switch Modules connect to the FNB bus. Figure 3-1 is a block diagram of the modules. The front panel contains three Ethernet connections that interface to the Repeater Interface Controllers (RIC).
  • Page 22: Flexible Network Bus (Fnb)

    Operation Flexible Network Bus (FNB) The FNB consists of two dual FDDI networks, the FNB-1 and FNB-2, providing up to 400 Mbps of data bandwidth. These FDDI networks are 100% ANSI FDDI- compliant, supporting SMT (version 7.3), MAC, PHY, and PMD standards. This allows the FNB to traverse multiple SmartSwitch 9000 hubs, or connect to any ANSI FDDI-compliant device, through standard A/B port connections.

    Operation i960 Core The i960 core in the FNB module serves two major functions: it provides the packet forwarding logic and performs all network management services. FNB modules can be configured to run as layer 2 bridges, layer 3 routers, or as Fast Packet Switches.

    The slide switch on the EPIM-T determines the crossover status of the cable pairs. If the switch is on the X side, the pairs are internally crossed over. If the switch is on the = side, the pairs are not internally crossed over. Figure A-1 shows the pinouts for the EPIM-T in both crossover positions.
  • Page 32: Epim-F1 And Epim-F2

    EPIM-F1 and EPIM-F2 The EPIM-F1 and EPIM-F2 support Multimode Fiber Optic cabling. Each EPIM has an internal Cabletron Systems FOT-F™ Fiber Optic Transceiver. The EPIM-F1 is equipped with SMA Connectors and the EPIM-F2 is equipped with ST Connectors. Figure A-2 shows both EPIMs. Specifications for the EPIMs are listed in Table A-1.

    (i.e., -30.5 dBm peak = -33.5 dBm average). EPIM-F3 The EPIM-F3 supports Single Mode Fiber Optic cabling. It has an internal Cabletron Systems FOT-F™ Fiber Optic Transceiver and is equipped with ST Connectors. Figure A-3 shows the EPIM-F3. Specifications for the EPIM-F3 are listed in Table A-3.
  • Page 34 EPIMs Transmitter Power decreases as temperatures rise and increases as temperatures NOTE fall. Use the Output Power Coefficient to calculate increased or decreased power output for your operating environment. For example, the typical power output at 25°C is -16.4 dBm. For a 4°C temperature increase, multiply the typical coefficient (-0.15 dBm) by four and add the result to typical output power (4 x - 0.15 dBm + -16.4 = -17.0).
  • Page 35: Epim-C

    EPIM-C The EPIM-C supports thin-net coaxial cabling and is equipped with an internal Cabletron Systems TMS-3™ Transceiver. You can use the TERM switch on the front of the EPIM-C to set the internal 50-ohm terminator. This eliminates the need to connect the port to a tee-connector and terminator. Figure A-4 shows the setting for the terminator switch.
  • Page 36 EPIMs The AUI Cable must not exceed 50 meters in length. If 28 AWG thin office drop AUI cable is used, then the maximum cable length is limited to 15.24 meters. Table A-4 lists the DB-15 pinouts. Pin Number EPIM-A Figure A-5.
