Input voltage: 12.0V DC +10%

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 and CD libraries.

Ethernet port

The 10/100/1000 GbE RJ45 Ethernet port uses the Intel 8254x family gigabit Ethernet controllers to support Telnet-based data transfer and management through 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.

Environment

Operating Temperature: 0-70° C external Ambient air should not exceed 40°C. Humidity: 10-90% non-condensing Recommended airflow: 11 cubic feet per minute.

Power

Plug in the 12 volt, 20 Watt wall mount adapter to the back of the unit, then into an appropriate power source (100-240 VAC input, 50/60 Hz). The power source must be connected to a protective earth ground and comply with local electrical codes. Improper grounding may result in an electrical shock or damage to the unit.

LED indicators

Activity: A green LED on the top 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.

Reset switch

A manual reset switch is mounted on the board. Insert a tool in the hole in the back panel to activate the switch.
