Getting Started

This chapter provides information and procedures needed to install and make the Sun Netra CP3240 switch operational. This chapter should be read before using the board.

In addition to this chapter, refer to the following safety documentation:

■ Netra CP3X20 Switch Safety and Compliance Manual (820-3505)

■ Important Safety Information for Sun Hardware Systems (816-7190)

Caution – When the system is plugged in, energy hazards are present on the

midplane. Do not reach into the enclosure.

Caution – Static electricity can damage electronic components. Wear a wrist strap

grounded through one of the system’s ESD ground jacks when removing and replacing hot-swappable components.

This chapter contains the following topics:

1.1 System Requirements

The following sections briefly describe the minimum system requirements and the configurable features. Links are provided to other chapters and appendices containing more detailed information.

1.1.1 Connectivity

The switch can work in any AdvancedTCA shelf. It is mainly designed to be used as hub blade, however, it can also operate a node or a full-mesh blade.

1.1.1.1 Hub Connectivity

In AdvancedTCA. the hub board defines the system, so it is important that it be put in the correct slot. In all shelves there are two slots specifically designated for hub boards, logical slots 1 and 2. If the slots are not labeled, these slots are easily identifiable because they have a larger number of Zone 2 connectors than the other slots (the only slots with all five Zone 2 connectors).

Base is always routed in a dual star. This means every node slot has a Base channel routed to each of the hub slots. Independent of how the Fabric is used, a hub board is always needed for Base. If full mesh node boards are used in a full mesh shelf, a hub board is not needed for Fabric.

1.1.2 Electrical and Environmental

The switch has the following power requirements:

TABLE 1-1 Power Requirements

State Power in Watts (W)

Idle, no AMCs 45W

All ports linked with RTM, no AMCs 72W

All ports linked with RTM, heavy traffic, no AMCs 78W

Designed max power with 15W RTM, and 100W shared for all AMC sites

1-2 Sun Netra CP3240 Switch Installation Guide • September 2009

200W

The 48VDC has a tolerance of 0VDC to 75VDC without damage. The switch will operate when 48VDC is 36VDC to 72VDC, inclusive.

Caution – Any input voltage outside the range of 0VDC to 75VDC can damage the

switch.

The switch requires air flow. A minimum of 100 LFM should be kept on the board at all times. If an RTM is being used, active RTM cooling is not required.

Caution – None of the integrated chips junction temperature should exceed 125˚C.

The switch requires air flow to meet this requirement. Testing should be done in your shelf to find the quantity of air flow needed. 100 LFM is the recommended minimum quantity of air flow.

The switch might contain materials that require regulation upon disposal. Please dispose of this product in accordance with local rules and regulations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance at http://www.eiae.org/.

Chapter 1 Getting Started 1-3

1.2 Unpacking

Check the shipping carton for damage. If the shipping carton or contents are damaged, notify the carrier and Sun. Retain the shipping carton and packing material for inspection by the carrier. Obtain authorization before returning any product to Sun. Refer to the Netra CP3240 Switch Getting Started Guide (820-3254) for return instructions.

Caution – This board must be protected from static discharge and physical shock.

Never remove any of the socketed parts except at a static-free workstation. Use the anti-static bag shipped with the product to handle the board. Wear a wrist strap grounded through one of the system's ESD ground jacks when installing or servicing system components.

1.3 Handling Switches

Caution – The system is sensitive to static electricity. To prevent damage to the

assembly, always connect an antistatic wrist strap between you and the system.

Caution – Do not flex the switches; the surface-mounted components can break if

the switch is bent.

To minimize the amount of switch flexing, observe the following precautions:

■ When removing a switch from an electrostatic discharge bag, keep it vertical until

you place the switch on the electrostatic discharge mat.

■ Do not place a switch on a hard surface. Use a cushioned antistatic mat. The

switch connectors and components have very thin pins that bend easily.

■ Be careful of small parts located on the component side of a switch.

■ Do not use an oscilloscope probe on the components. The soldered pins are easily

damaged or shorted by the probe point.

■ Transport a switch in an antistatic bag.

1-4 Sun Netra CP3240 Switch Installation Guide • September 2009

Caution – The heat sinks on a switch can be damaged by incorrect handling. Do not

touch the heat sinks while installing or removing a switch. Hold a switch only by the edges. If a heat sink is loose or broken, obtain a replacement switch.

Caution – The heat sinks on a switch can be damaged by improper packaging.

When storing or shipping a switch, ensure that the heat sinks have sufficient protection.

1.4 Connectors

The switch includes several connectors to interface to application-specific devices. Refer to the Chapter B for complete connector descriptions and pin outs.

1.5 Jumper Options

The switch provides several jumper configuration options for features. Location figures and descriptions are provided in Chapter 3.
