2-Module Power Chassis User Manual
1. 0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The iConverter 2-Module Power Chassis is powered by a single internal universal AC or DC power supply and can accommodate up to two iConverter media converters. It is ideal for enterprise Local Area Network (LAN) or Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) applications where remote management and explicit demarcation between the service provider’s equipment and customer’s equipment is required.
Fig. 1 2-Module Chassis (Shown without modules installed)
This User Manual describes the following models:
1.1 Dying Gasp Trap
The 8230-1, 8231-1, 8235-1 and 8236-1 chassis feature Dying Gasp Trap, which reports loss of power input or chassis power supply failure. This feature requires an iConverter management module be installed in the chassis. When power failure occurs, the chassis
reserves enough power to keep the installed modules running in order to send a nal
SNMP alert to the management software.

1.2 Terms
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 in-
serted 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 connectiv-
ity between adjacent slots.
A Port An interface on a module capable of Ethernet trafc via the back-
plane’s A Link.
Notes:
1. Other iConverter multi-module chassis models also support a backplane B Link. This feature is not required on the 2-Module Chassis.
2. Other modules support a B Port. In the application drawings in this manual, the B Ports depicted are not connected.
1.3 Mechanical Description
The 2-Module chassis consists of a fixed internal AC (models 8230-0, 8230-1, 8231-0 and 8231-1) or DC (models 8235-0, 8235-1, 8236-0 and 8236-1) power supply that provides power to the chassis’ two (2) backplane connectors.
1.4 Backplane Architecture
The chassis features two (2) module slots numbered 1 (top slot) and 2 (bottom slot). As modules are inserted into the chassis slots, they are seated into the slot connectors.
The two slots are connected using the A Link which provides Ethernet connectivity between the two slots.
When modules with A Port capability are inserted into the adjacent chassis slots, they can connect their Ethernet data using their A Ports and the A Link.
Note: Not all modules support and have backplane ports. To nd out about each specic module’s backplane port conguration, refer to the specic module’s
documentation.
This chassis’ architecture facilitates a variety of applications including unmanaged,
out-of-band managed, in-band managed and multi-port congurations.

1.5 Application Examples
1.5.1 In-Band Managed 10/100 Converter Application
Fig 3. Depicts a typical in-band managed ber to UTP conversion at a Customer’s
Premises (CP) or at a remote network edge. In-band management is a desirable
from the management data.
This application uses an iConverter 10/100M module for media conversion and
management and a 4TxVT 4-Port 10/100 switch module for added customer connectivity.
Both modules are plugged into the 2-Module chassis.
The 10/100M converter module features two front-plane Ethernet ports (100BASE-FX
B Ports).
10/100Mbps Ethernet backplane ports (A and B Ports).
The user data ows between the ber and UTP ports of the 10/100M and 4TxVT via
the backplane.
The management data ows between the ber and all the UTP ports (in-band). Using a management VLAN, the management data is recognized by the 10/100M module
and is not shared by the other ports.
This conguration provides the network administrator with the ability to manage and
maintain the converter chassis at the remote location.

1.5.2 Out-of-Band Managed 4-Port Switch Application
4TxVTModule
NMM Module
Fig 4. Depicts a typical managed switch application.
This application uses a 4TxVT 4-Port 10/100 switch module and an iConverter Network
Management Module (NMM) for management. Both modules are plugged into the 2-Module chassis.
The 4TxVT features four front-plane 10/100BASE-T UTP Ethernet ports and two
10/100Mbps Ethernet backplane ports (A and B Ports).
The NMM features a 10BASE-T front-plane port and a 10Mbps Ethernet backplane A Port.
Out-of-band management is provided by connecting to the front-plane port on the NMM
module. The management data is separate from the user data on the 4TxVT.
This conguration provides the network administrator with the ability to efciently and
cost effectively manage a small (4-port) workgroup switch.

3.4 DC Powered Chassis Mounting
Locate the DC circuit breaker of the external power source, and switch the circuit
breaker to the OFF position.
Prepare a power cable using a three conductor insulated wire (not supplied) with a
14 AWG gauge minimum. Cut the power cable to the length required.
Strip approximately 3/8 of an inch of insulation from the power cable wires.
Connect the power cables to the iConverter Chassis by fastening the stripped ends
to the DC power connector.
WARNING: Note the wire colors used in making the positive, negative and ground
