1.1 Physical attributes

The ATTO FastStream VT 5300 is a Fibre Channel to SCSI virtual tape appliance which can be seamlessly integrated into an existing storage environment.

The ATTO FastStream VT 5300 is available in an industry-standard 1U form factor for easy integration into racks. It supports next-generation media and, as a result, is equipped to handle the throughputs needed by advanced disk technologies.

•Full support for full duplex FC data transfers, FC- AL, PLDA and public loop login.

•Small Formfactor Pluggable (SFP) interface

•Auto negotiates with 1-, 2- and 4-Gb/sec. devices

Dimensions

Width: 17 inches

Length: 11 inches

Height: 1.7 inches (1U)

Weight: approximately 10 pounds

Cooling and airflow

Operating Temperature: 0-40° C external

Humidity: 10-90% non-condensing

Air enters from the front and is exhausted out the connector side by a blower inside the enclosure which provides 11 cubic feet per minute of airflow. Ambient air near the inlets should not exceed 40°C. The unit automatically stops operation if the temperature goes beyond this threshold.

SCSI ports

The two SCSI ports connect storage devices into the Fibre Channel Storage Area Network (SAN). Each port is totally independent from the other.

The ports are Ultra 320 SCSI busses with VHDCI connector, downward compatible with all forms of single-ended SCSI and all previous SCSI protocols.

Ethernet port

The 10/100 Base T Ethernet port is accessible from the RJ45 connector. Local diagnostics are supported through an integrated web server (ATTO FastStream VT 5300 browser-based user interface), CLI, Telnet and FTP. Includes support for DHCP, Telnet, FTP, SNMP and ICMP.

CAUTION

Do not block the enclosure’s vents. The FastStream VT 5300 shuts down if overheating occurs.

Power

The power supply circuit is permanently mounted

Serial port

The RS-232 serial port provides support for remote monitoring and management using a DB9 connector. The baud rate is programmable and preset at the factory to 115200 bps.

within the enclosure and is not hot swappable. It has one standard IEC320 power receptacle and switch. The universal power supply provides power for the FastStream VT 5300 board and cooling fan.

The power requirements of the ATTO FastStream VT 5300 plus the power draw of the other equipment in the rack must not overload the supply circuit and/or wiring of the rack.

Input voltage: 10/230V AC, with operating input range of 90-132V AC or 175-264V AC, 47-63Hz, single phase. The AC input range selection is automatic with no manual or jumper switchover required.

Power draw: 2 amps at 110V, 1.6 amps @ 90V

Fibre Channel port

The four independent 4-Gigabit Fibre Channel ports can connect the FastStream VT 5300 to either a Fabric or Arbitrated Loop.

LED indicators

The LED indicators can be viewed from the connector side and the front side of the FastStream VT 5300. (See Exhibit 1.1)

LEDs on the connector side are:

A bicolor Ready/Fault LED lights green to indicate ready, lights yellow to show a faulted condition, and is off to indicate not ready.

Embedded in the Ethernet port connector: a lighted green LED shows a valid link; off indicates that no link is present. A separate blinking yellow LED indicates activity.

Fibre Channel port: A lighted green LED indicates link; off means no link. A separate green LED indicates activity if it is lit, no activity if it is off. SCSI ports: A green LED on each port indicates activity if is lit.

LEDs on the faceplate are:
