The AT-SBx3106 Chassis is a 4RU unit with slots for four Ethernet line
cards and two controller cards or five Ethernet line cards and one
controller card. There are also slots for two system power supply modules
and two PoE power supply modules. The chassis components are
identified in Figure 6 here and Figure 7 on page 24.

Do not remove the shipping brace from the front of the chassis until
after the unit is installed in the equipment rack. You might bend the
chassis and cause misalignment of the slots and card guides if you
lift the chassis into the equipment rack without the shipping brace.

The chassis has slots for four Ethernet line cards and two AT-SBx31CFC
Central Fabric Controller cards or five Ethernet line cards and one ATSBx31CFC Central Fabric Controller card. The slot definitions are
predefined and may not be changed. Figure 9 on page 25 identifies the
slots, which are numbered starting with 0.

Figure 9. Slots for the Ethernet Line and Control Cards
Slots 0 to 3 are for Ethernet line cards. The cards may be installed in any
order or variety in the slots.
Slot 4 is for the AT-SBx31CFC Central Fabric Controller card. The chassis
must have at least one controller card.
Slot 5 may be used with either an Ethernet line card or a second controller
card. A second controller card adds management redundancy and
increases the available traffic bandwidth of the chassis.
Power Supply
The chassis has four power supply slots, labelled A to D, across the top of
Slots
the front panel of the chassis, as shown in Figure 10.
The two right hand slots are for the AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supply,
which supplies power to the Ethernet line cards, controller cards, and fan
module. The only chassis component not powered by the module is the
PoE feature on the twisted pair ports on the AT-SBx31GP24 PoE Line
Card.
Figure 10. Power Supply Slots
There are AC and DC versions of the AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supply.
Refer to Figure 4 on page 21 for illustrations of the modules.
25
Chapter 1: Overview
Note
A single AT-SBxPWRSYS1 Power Supply has enough power to support a
fully populated chassis. However, you may install two power supplies to
add power redundancy to the chassis.
The two left hand slots are for the AT-SBxPWRPOE1 Power Supply. This
unit provides PoE for the ports on the AT-SBx31GP24 Line Card. (It
should be noted that the line card also needs the AT-SBxPWRSYS1
Power Supply to operate its switching functions.) You may install two ATSBxPWRPOE1 Power Supplies in the chassis to increase the amount of
available PoE power or to add PoE redundancy.
The AT-SBxPWRSYS1 DC Power Supply is not compatible with the
AT-SBxPWRSYS1 AC or AT-SBxPWRPOE1 AC Power Supply.
You should not operate the chassis with both AC and DC power
supplies. You may, however, operate the chassis for a short period
of time with AC and DC power supplies if you are converting it from
one type of power supply to another, such as from AC to DC. This
allows you to transition the chassis without having to power it off.
