• Shared Chassis -- Shared
Peripherals
• Less space, less weight, less
power, less cost
The rugged Z MPU delivers
four independent computers.
Each computer is an Intel or
Sun COTS computer encased in
its own environmentally sealed
hot swappable module.
Each computer is a complete
stand alone system with its
own dedicated boot disk.
• Hot swappable Sealed
Computer Modules (SCM) and
Disk modules
• Mix & match platforms and
OS’s
The chassis can be quickly
populated with SCM’s and hard
drives, and can be mixed and
matched with Intel and Sun
motherboards using IDE and
SCSI hard drives.
Each hot pluggable computer
and its dedicated disk module
is environmentally sealed
against sand and dust,
effectively reducing
maintenance and increasing
reliability and system life.

• Independent Stand Alone
Systems
Four physically and logically
separate computers enable
different software applications
to run independently.
Each computer has its own
dedicated TranzPak 7 disk
module, its own external I/O
connectors, and shared access
to support peripherals.
Each computer has two
independent USB busses that
are matrix-switched to the
array of USB peripherals.

Each docking slot has a transition board that mates with the removable SCM and its dedicated TranzPak 7 disk module. Inside each SCM
an interface board generates the required voltages and transitions the motherboard’s I/O signals to the outside world.
Shared Peripherals & System Administration
Peripheral Sharing
3.0
• Shared Peripheral Clusters
The Peripheral Device Layer
organizes an array of the most
popular USB devices (CDW, floppy,
PCMCIA) and an external hub into
four switchable clusters that can
be individually and dynamically
switched to any SCM.
Peripheral Cluster

Remote SysAdmin
3.2
• Maximum Flexibility
Each SCM has two independent
internal USB busses that are
assignable to any of the four
peripheral clusters.
Peripheral assignments can be
made locally using the front panel
or remotely via the SysAdmin
network facility.
• Web Based SysAdmin
An embedded multiprocessor
monitors system health and
watch-dog activity.
An HTML web page provides
network capability for remote
monitoring and system
administration.
The ability to independently
control power, reboot, monitor
environmental performance,
execute failover strategies, and
administer system functions
across the network allows the
system to be located in “lights
out” inaccessible locations.
