3.4Installing and Extracting the SBC
The ability to replace SBCs without affecting the operation of the chassis is a major element of the PICMG AdvancedTCA standard. This Hot Swap functionality requires a faceplate ejector handle designed to the PICMG specifications. The new handle has two important functions:
•Activate the Hot Swap microswitch on the chassis. The handle does this by sliding inward at the start of the extraction procedure.
•Operate within a narrow range of motion. The handle is designed to provide clearance from other chassis components (cables, cable trays, PEMs, etc.) that would otherwise interfere with handle movement in some installations. It also allows clearance for AdvancedMCs to be installed or removed while the SBC is operating in the chassis. This is accomplished through a ratcheting mechanism where the handle is connected to the latching cam (See the illustration in Section 3.4.1, “Chassis Installation”).
Please review the procedures below before attempting to install or remove the MPCBL0010 SBC from an AdvancedTCA chassis.
