1. 0 GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The iConverter 1U (1.75 inch) 5-Module Power Chassis is powered by up to two (2) hot-swappable and redundant universal AC
or DC power supplies and can accommodate up to 5 iConverter modules. It is ideal for enterprise Local Area Network (LAN) or
Metropolitan Area Network (MAN) applications where managed media converters with high density and small rack-footprint are
important.

1.1 Mechanical Description

The iConverter 5-Module chassis consists of two AC or DC power supplies. As can be seen from the model table above, the
5-Module chassis models have been pre-congured with two power supplies. The power supplies provide power to the chassis’
5 backplane connectors.

1.2 Backplane Architecture

The chassis features 5 module slots numbered 1 (left-most positioned slot) through 5 (right-most positioned slot).

Backplane A and Backplane B provide Ethernet connectivity between adjacent slots.

Figure 2: iConverter 5-Module Chassis Backplane Architecture

Figure 2 depicts the backplane architecture of the chassis showing Backplane A and Backplane B connectivity.

Backplane A connects odd numbered slots on the left to even numbered slots on the right (i.e. 1-2, 3-4).

Backplane B connects even numbered slots on the left to odd numbered slots on the right (i.e. 2-3, 4-5).

When modules with Backplane capabilities are inserted into adjacent chassis slots, they can connect to each other via the Ethernet
backplanes when enabled, creating a exible network architectures.

This chassis architecture facilitates a variety of applications including unmanaged, in-band managed and multi-port congurations.
