1.4 ATTO iPBridge 1550D

The ATTO iPBridge 1550D is a 1-Gigabit Ethernet to SCSI embeddable bridge for high performance ,

cost effective solutions in SMB/SME environments.

The iPBridge 1550E includes a single Ethernet

port which may be used for either data transfer or

configuration, a serial management port and a

SCSI port.

Dimensions

Width: 7.5 inches wide

Depth: 5.0 inches long

Height: 1.76 inches

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.

Input voltage: 12.0V DC +10%

SCSI port

The SCSI port on the iPBridge 1550E 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.

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.
