ATTO Technology Inc. iPBridge Installation and Operation Manual
1.2 ATTO iPBridge 2700C
The ATTO iPBridge 2700C is a 1-Gigabit Ethernet to Fibre Channel embeddable cPCI bridge for high
performance, cost effective solutions in enterprise environments.
The iPBridge 2700C includes four Ethernet data
ports, an Ethernet management port, a serial
header and two Fibre Channel ports. It includes a
battery-backed Real-Time-Clock, and an IP Time
client (RFC 1631 compliant).
Dimensions
Width:
6.193 inches
Length:
6.299 inches
Height of tallest component:
.545 inches
Environment
Operating Temperature:
5-40°C external
Ambient air should not exceed 40°C.
User-configurable thermal sensor for automatic
shutdown. Default is 70°C
Humidity:
10-90% non-condensing
Recommended airflow: 166.25 LFM
Power
The iP2700C
board may be
powered from
the cPCI
backplane connector or a 6-pin connector.
Input voltage:
5.0V
Power draw:
30 Watts
Battery-backed event log SRAM & Real-Time-
Clock:
A rechargeable Lithium ion battery cell
will hold the memory in a 512KB SRAM for up to
30 days.
WARNING
Risk of explosion if the battery is removed
and/or replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries in accordance
with your local environmental regulations.
If the iPBridge becomes disconnected from
power, recharging begins automatically when
power is restored to the system. The battery is
fully charged after 24 hours of continuous power
application.
Ethernet interface
The four independent 100/1000 GbE RJ45
Ethernet data ports support IP v.4 in compliance
with IEEE 802.3 GbE. Each may also be used for
iPBridge management.
A separate 10/100 Ethernet management port may
be used for iPBridge management.
GbE cables must be at least CAT-5E certified for
1000 Mb/sec. use.
Fibre Channel interface
The two independent optical SFP 4-Gb Fibre
Channel ports auto-negotiate to 1-, 2- or 4-Gigabit
devices. They provide full support for direct
connect for F-port fabric switches, Class 3 and
intermix ANSI Fibre Channel specifications,
PLDA, public loop login (NL-ports) and fabric
connect (N-port) and full duplex transmissions.
Serial management header
A serial 10-pin header
provides support for
an RS232 remote
monitoring and
management port
through a Command
Line Interface. The baud rate is programmable
and preset at the factory to 11500.
LED indicators
The on-board LED indicators show through the
faceplate and follow left to right.
Fibre Channel ports:
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.
Embedded in the Gigabit Ethernet port
connectors:
a green light on the bicolor LED
indicates 100 MbE Ethernet speed while a lighted
yellow LED shows 1000 MbE. A separate solidly
lit green LED indicates an active link, blinking
indicates activity and off shows no link is present.
