    Operation SMB-1 Bus The SMB-1 is a 1Mbs management bus located within the SmartSwitch 9000. This bus is utilized by all diagnostic controllers in the system including connectivity modules, power supply modules and the environmental module. The SMB-1 transports inter-chassis information between system components, such as power and environmental information, as well as diagnostic messages.

  • Page 25: Inb Interface

    Operation INB Interface Each module that attaches to the INB has an INB Network Interface Block (NIB). The INB NIB converts canonical frames to fixed length data blocks for transmission onto the INB. For data blocks received from the INB, the INB NIB reassembles the data blocks received from the INB back into canonical frames for transmission to the SmartSwitch ASIC then from the SmartSwitch ASIC to the front panel ports.
