The chassis supports all the same features as the AT-CV5000 Chassis, including Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM). This feature lets you perform loopback tests between the media converter cards and remote devices, receive notification of power supply problems at remote sites with the dying gasp and the first RPS failure signals, and more. For descriptions of the OAM features, refer to the AT-S73, AT-S99, and AT-S102 Management Software User’s Guide.

The chassis does not come with a power supply, Power supplies must be ordered separately.

Media Converter Cards

The chassis supports all the Converteon media converter cards, which include the following:

 AT-CV Series  AT-CM2 Series  AT-CM3 Series  AT-CM70S Card

The cards can be installed in the chassis in any combination and in any order. For descriptions of the cards, refer to their datasheets on the Allied Telesis web site, their Installation Guides, which are also available on the Allied Telesis web site, or the AT-S73, AT-S99, and AT-S102 Management Software User’s Guide.

AT-CV5M02 Management Card

The chassis and the media converter cards are operational as soon as they are installed and powered on, and can be used as unmanaged devices.

If management is desired, you can install the AT-CV5M02 Management Card. This card lets you monitor the operational states of the cards and the chassis, and configure their parameters.

AT-CV5001 Media Converter Chassis Installation Guide

AT-CV5001AC and AT-CV5001DC Power Supply Modules

The AT-CV5001 Chassis has slots for two power supply modules. The power requirements of the chassis and the media converter line cards can be met with just one power supply. A second power supply can be added for power redundancy.

If the chassis has two power modules, the modules use a load-sharing arrangement in which they both supply power to the media converter line cards. If one of the power supply fails, the second module automatically assumes the role of powering the entire chassis, thus preventing any interruption to the flow of network traffic through the line cards.

There are AC and DC power modules for the chassis. They are:

 AT-CV5001AC Power Supply Module  AT-CV5001DC Power Supply Module

The chassis can have either AC or DC modules, or both AC and DC modules.

Automatic Fan

Speed Control

The previous AT-CV5000 Chassis had left and right power supply modules. This is not true for the power modules for the AT-CV5001 Chassis. The AT-CV5001AC and AT-CV5001DC Power Supply Modules can be installed in either slot A or slot B in the chassis.

The chassis does not come with a power supply module. Power supply modules must be ordered separately.

Each power supply module has a single cooling fan that draws air out of the chassis. Air enters the device from the front through the air vents on the faceplates on the slot covers and the media converter cards.

If the chassis has the AT-CV5M02 Management Module, the speed of the fan is automatically adjusted according to the internal temperature of the unit. When operating conditions permit, the speed of the fan is lowered to lessen fan noise, reducing the chance that the unit will be an annoyance to individuals if the device is installed in a public or work area.

The feature works by monitoring the internal temperature of the chassis. If the temperature is below 60° C (140° F), the management card incrementally reduces the speed of the fan over approximately 30 seconds to a minimum speed of 2000 RPM. If the temperature exceeds 60° C, the management card incrementally increases the fan speed over the same time period to approximately 6000 RPM. When the temperature returns below 60° C, the fan speed is again incrementally reduced to 2000 RPM.

Chapter 1: Overview

Power Supply

Alerts and

Shutdown

The power supply automatically shuts down if the internal temperature of the chassis exceeds 70 ° C (158° F), and starts again when the temperature returns below 65° C (149° F).

If the speed of the fan in the power supply falls below 2000 RPM or if the fan stops completely, the management card, if present, transmits an SNMP trap and enters a message in the event log, alerting you to the problem.

The management card has two temperature thresholds and sends a trap when either threshold is exceeded. One of the thresholds is adjustable and the other is not. The adjustable threshold is set in the Temperature Threshold Configuration menu in the management software and has a default setting is 60° C (140° F). This is the temperature threshold at which the management card speeds up or slows down the cooling fan in the power supply. If this setting is left unchanged, the management card may send a series of SNMP traps if the operating temperature hovers at that point. To avoid this, you may want to consider raising or lowering this setting. For instructions, refer to the Converteon AT-S73, AT-S99 and AT-S102 Management Software User’s Guide. Here is the trap for this threshold:

Fan Tray #1/2: Fan Temperature Exceed Limit

The second temperature threshold, which is not adjustable, is 65° C (14 9° F), five degrees below the temperature at which the power supply automatically shuts down. This temperature threshold alerts you if the power supply is close to shutting down because of a temperature problem. Here is the trap for this threshold:

Temp exceeded 65 deg C in module A/B

AT-CV5000 Chassis

The AT-CV5000 Chassis is the predecessor to the AT-CV5001 Chassis. Both chassis have nearly all the same features. For example, they both support redundant power supplies, redundant management cards, and Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (OAM). They also have the same number of slots for media converter cards. But they do have a few differences. They are:

 The AT-CV5001 Chassis features automatic fan speed control when a

 The AT-CV5000 Chassis has left and right versions of the AC and DC

 The AT-CV5000 Chassis has separate fan modules. The fans in the

power supplies. The AT-CV5001AC and AT-CV5001DC Power Supplies for the AT-CV5001 Chassis can fit in either power supply slot in the unit.

A T-CV5001 Chassis are part of the AT-CV5001AC and A T-CV5001DC Power Supplies.

The card has a Reset button you can use to reset the AT-CV and AT-CM2 Media Converter Cards in the chassis. The cards initialize their management software. Resetting the line cards may result in the loss of some network traffic. The reset button does not affect the AT-CV5M02 Management Card or the AT-CM3 Media Converter Cards.

The AT-CV5LED Card does not use management software.

The AT-CV5LED Card must only be serviced by an Allied Telesis technician. If the card develops a problem, contact Allied Telesis for assistance.
