Managed

AT-CV5000

Unmanaged AT-CV5000

Figure 1. AT-CV5000 Media Converter

When you connect workgroup hubs and other switches to the chassis, the AT-CV5000 media converter functions as the focal point of your network. Or you can connect workstations, servers, printers, and routers directly to the chassis so that each device has sole use of a dedicated link to the network.

A managed AT-CV5000 media converter includes at least one AT-CV5M01 Management Card which contains a CPU. The management card is shipped with the AT-S70 management software preinstalled which allows you to manage the chassis and line cards, even remotely. The management card fits into any of the 18 line card slots on the front of the AT-CV5000 chassis. When more than one management card is installed, one acts as a master card and the others operate as redundant fail-over cards.

An unmanaged AT-CV5000 media converter has no management card and thus does not provide you with the capability to manage the chassis and line cards through the AT-S70 management software. In order to configure the operational mode of the line cards, you must set the line card’s DIP switches.

18

An unmanaged AT-CV5000 chassis does offers centralized power and air flow to the line cards. The LED interface card provides information about the power supplies and fans and a chassis reset button. The chassis will provide an unmanaged automated sequence power up to permit gradual loading of the power supplies from cold boot.

AT-CV5M01 Management Card

The AT-CV5M01 Management Card provides a CPU subsystem for the AT-CV5000 chassis as well as the AT-S70 management software preinstalled that allows you to configure and monitor the status of the converter line cards. For more information about the AT-S70 management software, refer to the AT-S70 Management Software User’s Guide.

The AT-CV5000 chassis is shipped without an AT-CV5M01 Management Card and therefore is by default an unmanaged chassis.

Note

The AT-CV5M01 Management Card is hot-swappable and you can insert it in any line card slot without powering OFF the chassis.

The AT-CV5M01 Management Card, as shown in Figure 6, features the following components:

 One RS-232 terminal port with a DB-9 connector for a local

management session

 One 10/100Base-TX twisted pair port with an RJ-45 connector for a

remote management session

These default settings are for a DEC VT100 or ANSI terminal, or an equivalent terminal emulation program.

Note

This terminal port does not allow you to connect to any module present in the expansion slot located in the rear of the chassis. To connect to a module in the rear expansion slot, you must use the RS-232 terminal port on the LED interface card, as described in “LED Interface Card” on page 21.

10/100Base-TX

Twisted Pair Port

The 10/100Base-TX twisted pair port on the management card allows you to establish a remote management session and has a maximum operating distance of 100 meters (328 feet). The port has an 8-pin RJ-45 connector. For the port pinouts, refer to “RJ-45 Twisted Pair Port Pinouts” on page 103.

The twisted pair port is 10/100Base-TX IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation compliant and is capable of both 10 megabits per second (Mbps) and 100 Mbps speeds. You can set the port speed manually through the AT-S70 management software or allow the port to set it automatically. With AutoNegotiation, the management card automatically matches the highest possible common speed between the port and the Ethernet hub or switch. For example, if the Ethernet hub or switch is capable of only 10 Mbps, the management card sets the port connected to the end node to 10 Mbps.

Note

Auto-Negotiation is the default setting on the twisted pair port on the management card. To deactivate Auto-Negotiation and set the speed manually, refer to the AT-S70 Management Software User’s Guide.

The twisted pair port on the management card can operate in either halfor full-duplex mode. The twisted pair port is IEEE 802.3u-compliant and will Auto-Negotiate the duplex mode setting. You can disable AutoNegotiation and set the duplex mode manually using the AT-S70 management software.

Note

In order for the twisted pair port on the management card to successfully Auto-Negotiate its duplex mode with an end node, the end node should also be using Auto-Negotiation. Otherwise, a duplex mode mismatch can occur. Therefore, when you connect an

25

Chapter 1: Overview

end node with a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex to a management card port, you should use the AT-S70 management software to disable Auto-Negotiation on the port and set the port speed and duplex mode manually.

For 10 Mbps operation, Category 3 or better, 100 Ohm shielded or unshielded, twisted pair cabling is required. For 100 Mbps operation, Category 5 or Enhanced Category 5 (5E), 100 Ohm shielded or unshielded, twisted pair cabling is required.

Converteon™ Line Cards

Note

For a current list of line cards for the Converteon™ Series Chassis, refer to the Allied Telesis web site or consult your authorized sales representative. For detailed descriptions of these line cards, refer to the documentation shipped with the line cards and/or the Converteon™ Media Converter Line Cards Reference Guide.

On some Converteon™ line cards, you can enable or disable the following features by configuring their DIP switches:

 Link Test

 MissingLink™ Mode

 Smart MissingLink Mode

 OAM Capabilities

Link Test The link test is a fast and easy way for you to test the connections

between the converter ports and the end nodes that are connected to the ports. If a network problem occurs, you can perform a link test to determine which port is experiencing a problem, and therefore focus your troubleshooting efforts on the cable and end node where the problem resides.

The LK LED for the twisted pair port should be green, indicating that it was able to establish a link with its end nodes. If the LK LED is off, the port could not establish a link. Refer to “Troubleshooting” on page 95 for suggestions on how to remedy the problem.

For more information on how the LK LED functions, refer to Appendix A in the Converteon™ Media Converter Line Cards Reference Guide.

Performing a link test does not interfere with a converter’s ability to pass network traffic.

MissingLink™ The MissingLink™ feature enables the ports on the media converter to

pass the link status of their connections to each other. When the media converter detects a problem on one of the ports, such as the loss of connection to an end node, the media converter shuts down the connection to the other port, thus notifying the end node that the connection has been lost.

28

For example, if the twisted pair cable to the 10/100Base-TX port on the media converter fails, the line card drops the link on the 100Base-FX fiber optic port. In this way, the media converter notifies the end node connected to the fiber optic port that the connection on the twisted pair

AT-CV5000 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide

port has been lost. If the failure occurs on the fiber optic cabling, the line card drops the link to the twisted pair port.

Some devices can be configured to take a specific action in the event of the loss of connection on a port, to seek a redundant path to a disconnected end node, or to send out a trap to a network management station, and so alert the network administrator of the problem.

Smart

MissingLink

OAM The Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) is a group of

The Smart MissingLink feature performs exactly the same function as MissingLink™ with one additional feature. When a link is lost on a port, the LK LED of the port that still has a valid connection to its end node starts to blink. This allows you to quickly determine which port still has a valid connection (LK LED blinking) and which port has lost its connection (LK LED is off).

For example, if the network twisted pair cable to the 10/100Base-TX port on the media converter fails, the LK LED on the 100Base-FX fiber optic port blinks, indicating a failed connection on the twisted pair port. If the failure starts with the fiber optic cabling, the LK LED on the twisted pair port blinks.

This allows you to quickly see which port has failed and troubleshoot your network accordingly.

functions that provides tools and utilities used to manage a network. The OAM feature is 802.3ah-compliant and is used to provide network indication, system configuration, performance monitoring, security management, diagnostic functions and configuration. OAM is described in detail in the AT-S70 Management Software User’s Guide.

Chapter 1: Overview

Blank Slot Covers

The AT-CV5PNLx Series blank slot covers are designed to maintain optimal, trouble-free environmental conditions for the modules used in the Converteon™ AT-CV5000 chassis. Every unoccupied slot on the chassis must be covered with a blank slot cover to prevent dust from entering the chassis and to maintain proper airflow, cooling, and ventilation throughout the chassis.

There are three AT-CV5PNLx Series blank slot covers:

 AT-CV5PNL1 – For line cards and AT-CV5M01 Management Card

 AT-CV5PNL2 – For power supply modules

 AT-CV5PNL3 – For the rear expansion slot

Figure 7 illustrates the AT-CV5PNLx Series blank slot covers.

Fan Modules

The AT-CVFAN module, as shown in Figure 10, is designed for use with the AT-CV5000 chassis. You can install the same fan module in either fan slot labeled A or B, located at the rear of the AT-CV5000 chassis. For proper operation, two AT-CVFAN modules are preinstalled in the AT-CV5000 chassis.

Caution

The AT-CVFAN modules are field-replaceable; however, they are not hot-swappable. Therefore, make sure to power OFF the chassis before replacing the fan modules.

Note

The AT-CV5000 chassis operates correctly even with one faulty fan module. However, it will not operate correctly if one fan is missing because this changes the air flow.

Chapter 1: Overview

A Few Basics about Media Converters

An Ethernet media converter can interconnect network devices over large distances by transferring Ethernet traffic between twisted pair ports and fiber optic cabling.

MAC Address

Table

A Converteon™ media converter line card has a MAC address table that can store up to 2K to 32 K MAC addresses, depending on the line card model. Refer to the Converteon™ Media Converter Line Cards Reference Guide for the number of MAC addresses that each line card can store. The line card uses the table to store the MAC addresses of the network end nodes connected to the ports, along with the port number on which each address was learned.

A line card learns the MAC addresses of the end nodes by examining the source address of each packet received on a port. It adds the address and port on which the packet was received to the MAC table if the address had not already been entered in the table. The result is a table that contains all the MAC addresses of the devices that are connected to the line card’s ports, and the port number where each address was learned.

When the line card receives a packet, it also examines the destination address and, by referring to its MAC address table, determines the port on which the destination end node is connected. It then forwards the packet to the appropriate port and on to the end node.

If the line card receives a packet with a destination address that is on the same port on which the packet was received, it discards the packet without forwarding it on to any port. Because both the source end node and the destination end node for the packet are located on the same port on the line card, there is no reason for the line card to forward the packet.

Duplex Mode Duplex mode refers to the manner in which an end node receives and

transmits data. If an end node can receive or transmit data, but not both simultaneously, the end node is operating in half-duplex mode. If an end node can both receive and transmit data simultaneously, the end node is operating in full-duplex mode. An end node capable of operating in fullduplex can handle data much faster than an end node that can only operate in half-duplex mode.

The twisted pair ports on the Converteon™ line cards can operate in either half- or full-duplex mode. The twisted pair ports are IEEE 802.3ucompliant and will Auto-Negotiate the duplex mode setting for you.

You can disable Auto-Negotiation on the line card ports so that you can set the duplex mode manually through the management software.

In order for a line card port to successfully Auto-Negotiate its duplex mode

34

AT-CV5000 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide

with an end node, the end node should also be using Auto-Negotiation. Otherwise, a duplex mode mismatch can occur. A line card port, using Auto-Negotiation, defaults to half-duplex if it detects that the end node is not using Auto-Negotiation. This results in a mismatch if the end node is operating at a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex.

Consequently, when you connect an end node with a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex to a line card port, you should use the AT-S70 management software to disable Auto-Negotiation on the port and set the port speed and duplex mode manually.

Store-and-

Forward

The bridging media converter line cards, for example the AT-CM202, AT-CM2K0S, and CM212x/1 Series line cards, use store-and-forward as the method for receiving and transmitting frames. When an Ethernet frame is received on a line card port, the line card does not retransmit the frame out the destination port until it has received the entire frame and has stored the frame in a port buffer. It then examines the frame to determine if it is a valid frame. The line card discards invalid frames, such as fragments or runts. This ensures that only valid frames are transmitted out the line card ports and that damaged frames are not propagated on your network.

Pass-through The non-bridging media converter line cards, for example the AT-CV102

and AT-CV1KSS, use pass-through as the method for receiving and transmitting frames. The line cards can support any frame size. They only support one speed on the copper and fiber ports. These line cards do not support the filtering feature and do not learn any MAC addresses.

Selecting a Site for the Chassis

Observe the following requirements when choosing a site for the chassis:

 If you plan to install the chassis in an equipment rack, check to be sure

that the rack is safely secured and that it will not tip over. Devices in a rack should be installed starting at the bottom, with the heavier devices near the bottom of the rack.

 The chassis is heavy and requires two people to install it. For the

weight and dimensions of the chassis, see “Physical Specifications” on page 101.

 If you are installing the chassis on a table, be sure that the table is

level and secure.

 The power outlet for the chassis should be located near the unit and

should be easily accessible.

 The site should provide easy access to the ports both on the front and

the rear of the chassis. This arrangement will make it easy for you to connect and disconnect cables as well as to view the LEDs.

 To allow proper cooling of the chassis, air flow around the unit and

through its vents should be unrestricted. Allow 8 inches around the rear of the chassis for proper airflow.

 Do not place objects on top of the chassis.

 Do not expose the chassis to moisture or water.

 Make sure that the site is a dust-free environment.

 Use dedicated power circuits or power conditioners to supply reliable

electrical power to the device.

Chapter 3: Working with Line Cards and other Modules

Replacing an AT-CVFAN Module

This section provides instructions for replacing an AT-CVFAN fan module if one fails.

Caution

For normal operation, the chassis must have two operational fans.

Caution

The AT-CVFAN modules are field-replaceable; however, they are not hot-swappable. Therefore, make sure to power OFF the chassis before installing the fan modules.

Caution

Be sure to observe all standard electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions, such as wearing an antistatic wrist strap, to avoid damaging the device. A fan module can be damaged by static electricity.

Warning

Remove jewelry before replacing the fan modules.

Warning

Watch your fingers when handling the fan modules.

Warning

To avoid electric shock, do not touch the inside of the fan slots.

To replace an AT-CVFAN module, perform the following procedure:

1. Power OFF the chassis.

2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, loosen the captive screws at the top and bottom of the installed fan module faceplate.

86

LED Interface Card

PS-A or PS-B

LED is OFF

PS-A or PS-B

LED is Blinking

FAN-A or FAN-B

LED is OFF

The chassis must have at least one operational power supply, indicated by the PS-A (power supply A) and PS-B (power supply B) LEDs.

If one of the power supply LEDs is OFF, but the other LED is ON, perform the following:

 Verify that the power supply in question is completely installed in its

slot.

 Verify that the power switch of the power supply in question is turned

ON.

If one or both of the power supply LEDs are slowly blinking, perform the following:

 Verify that the ON/OFF power switch for that power supply is turned to

ON.

 Verify that the power cord is secured in the connector.

 Check the fuse or breaker of the circuit that the outlet is on.

If the fan module LED is OFF, perform the following:

 Verify that the fan module reporting trouble is operational.

 Remove and re-insert the fan module that is reporting trouble.

95

Chapter 4: Troubleshooting

Caution

For normal operation, both fans must be installed in the chassis.

PWR LED is

OFF

If the PWR LED on an AT-CV5M01 card is OFF, perform the following:

 If the chassis is installed on a desktop, check to be sure that the power

adapter is securely connected to a power outlet and that the power adapter cable is securely connected to the rear of the converter.

 Verify that the power switch is turned ON.

 Verify that the power outlet has power by connecting another device to

it.

 Try using another power adapter.

RDY LED is

Blinking

If the RDY LED on an AT-CV5M01 card is blinking, perform the following:

 Verify that the settings on the DIP switches and jumpers are correct.

 Try using the default settings.

 Remove and re-insert the card.

RDY LED is OFF If the RDY LED on an AT-CV5M01 is OFF, perform the following:

 Verify that the card is firmly inserted in the slot.

 Remove and re-insert the card.

FLT LED is

Blinking

 Verify that at least one power supply in the rear of the converter is

operational.

 Make sure that the power cord is securely connected to the power

source and to the AC connector on the rear panel of the switch.

 Verify that the power outlet has power by connecting another device to

it.

 Try connecting the unit to another power source.

 Try using a different power cord.

 Check that the voltage from the power source is within the required

levels for your region.

If the FLT LED on a line card is blinking, no action is required. A blinking FLT LED could indicate that a new version of the management software is being downloaded to the converter or that the converter’s configuration is being changed, such as with the installation of a new line card. The LED will stop blinking after the converter has completed the download or the configuration change is completed.

97

Chapter 4: Troubleshooting

FLT LED is Steadily ON

If the converter FLT LED is steadily on, a problem has occurred in the converter, perform the following:

 Try resetting the converter by disconnecting and reconnecting the AC

power cord.

 Try resetting the management card by pressing the reset button on the

LED interface card with the tip of a pen or a non-conductive pointy object.

 Try resetting the line card or the module installed in the rear expansion

slot by pressing the reset button on the LED interface card with the tip of a pen or a non-conductive pointy object.

Note

If the FLT LED remains steadily on, contact Allied Telesis Technical Support for assistance.
