2AMC-S402 Installation
This chapter contains the procedures for installing and removing the AMC-S402 AMC module.
2.1Installation and Removal of the AMC-S402 Module
The AMC-S402 AMC Module can be installed into an ATCA shelf (chassis) with slots designed to accept AMC.3 installations. The module slot height must properly match the panel height fitted to the AMC.
2.2Important Information about Your Chassis
The AMC-S402 is designed to PICMG specifications and is a general-purpose Advanced Mezzanine Card. Before using this board, review the specifications of the chassis and backplane that will house the module to determine the presence of, and any limitations of, chassis, IPMI bus, and user defined pin outs. For example, some chassis backplanes route certain I/O pins to internal resources such as alarm cards and drive resources. The AMC-S402 is intended for an ATCA AMC carrier card or MicroTCA chassis/backplanes/slots that are AMC.3 compliant. It is your responsibility to verify this system compatibility. Failure to do so could result in improper operation or equipment damage.
2.2.1Safety Statement
The AMC-S402 is designed to comply with UL60950-1, and is intended to be used with similarly tested ATCA and MicroTCA products that have a user’s guide detailing user installation of AMC module accessories.
2.2.2Observe Maximum Module Current Requirements
Be sure to validate the host chassis, and the intended AMC slot is able to meet the following maximum current requirements
