1.1 ATTO iPBridge 1500E

The ATTO iPBridge 1500E is a 1-Gigabit Ethernet to SCSI embeddable bridge for midrange performance, cost effective solutions in SMB/SME environments.

The iPBridge 1500E includes a single Ethernet port which may be used for either data transfer or configuration, a serial management port and a SCSI port.

Dimensions Length: 6.4 inches Width: 4.4 inches

Height of the tallest component: .536 inches

Environment

Operating Temperature: 5-40° C external Ambient air should not exceed 40°C. Humidity: 10-90% non-condensing Recommended airflow: 11 cubic feet per minute

Power

The iP1500E board may be powered from a 4-pin connector.

Input voltage: 12V DC ±10% derived from a 4- pin connection.

Reset switch

A manual reset switch is mounted on the board near the serial port.

SCSI port

The SCSI port on the iPBridge 1500E connects storage devices into the Storage Area Network (SAN). The port is an Ultra 3 LVD/SE SCSI bus with 68-pin “P” interface: 160 MB/sec. maximum throughput, downward compatible with all forms of single-ended SCSI.

The iPBridge supports SCSI devices including hard disk drives, tape drives RAID controllers, DVD, MO and CD libraries.

Ethernet port

The 10/100/1000 GbE RJ45 Ethernet port uses the Intel 8254x family gigabit Ethernet to support Telnet-based data transfer and management through a an ASCII-based command line interface or ATTO ExpressNAV, a browser-based interface.

GbE cables must be at least CAT-5E certified for 1000 Mb/sec. use.

Serial port

The RS-232 serial port provides support for remote monitoring and management through a command line interface. It is set at the factory at 115,200 bps.

LED indicators

Activity: A green LED in the middle of the iPBridge blinks to show the unit is ready and to identify the iPBridge when the CLI command IdentifyBridge is enabled. It goes dark when there is SCSI activity.

SCSI Activity: the SCSI bus has an LED which is lit when the iPBridge is ready and goes dark when there is SCSI activity.
