1. 0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The iConverter 2U (3.5 inch) 19-Module Power Chassis is powered by up to three (3) hot-swappable and redundant universal
AC or DC power supplies and can accommodate up to nineteen iConverter media converters. It is ideal for enterprise Local
Area Network (LAN) or Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) applications where managed media converters with high density and
a small rack-footprint (2U) are important.

Backplane A printed circuit board which is permanently mounted inside the chassis and is populated with receptacle
connectors into which modules are inserted.
Module An iConverter plug-in card positioned into a slot location and inserted into a backplane connector.
Module-Guide A mechanical channel, guiding module insertion into a backplane connector.
Slot A single chassis position consisting of a backplane connector and its associated module-guides.
A Link A backplane slot-to-slot connection that provides Ethernet connectivity between adjacent slots (sometimes
referred to as A Backplane Link).
A Port An interface on a module capable of Ethernet trafc via the backplane’s A Link.
B Link A backplane slot-to-slot connection that provides Ethernet connectivity between adjacent slots (sometimes
referred to as B Backplane Link).
B Port An interface on a module capable of Ethernet trafc via the backplane’s B Link.
1.2 Mechanical Description
The 19-Module chassis consists of any combination of one to three AC or DC power supplies. As can be seen from the model
