Chassis
Overview
The AT-CV5000 is one of a family of metal
chassis designed to house the range of
Converteon
TM
media blades, from one to 18
blades.The AT-CV5000 is an eighteen blade
chassis.
Power Options
The AT-CV5000 chassis is available in two
options, one supporting AC power, the other -
48vDC. All the Converteon
TM
power supplies
are hot-swappable and modular, installing 2 into
a chassis provides redundancy should a single
power supply fail. In an un-managed chassis, the
status of each power is displayed via a LED
indicator on the front panel, and via an LED on
the power supply module at the rear. A fully
loaded chassis can run continuously with only
one power module fitted into the chassis.
Power supply modules are:
AT-PWR14    AC Power Module
AT-PWR15   -48vDC Power Module
Redundancy
To further increase system reliability, the 
AT-CV5000 chassis is fitted with two hot-
swappable fan modules. Both fan modules can
be easily removed from the rear of the chassis,
without interruption to the operation of the
line cards. A fully loaded chassis can run
continuously with only one fan module fitted
into the chassis
AT-CVFAN     Fan module
Network Management
The AT-CV5000 chassis can operate in an
unmanaged mode, by the installation of any
number of media blades. Blades will be
configured manually using DIP switches located
on each blade. Alternatively, an SNMP
management card can be installed into one of
the slots in the chassis, which will provide a
network administrator with the ability to
configure and monitor the status of the blades.
Management can be achieved locally over
RS232, or over the network by Telnet or SNMP.
It the blades support Ethernet in the First Mile
(IEEE802.3ah), then the management module
can also configure and monitor the status of a
remote blade.
AT-CM501    Management Card
Chassis Status
If the AT-CV5000 has a management card
installed, then a network administrator can also
check the status of the chassis, the status of the
fans and the power supply modules. By ensuring
the continued performance of all components
in the chassis, the overall reliability of the
network can be improved.
Protocol Agnostic
The AT-CV5000 chassis has been designed to
be protocol, and speed agnostic.This allows
network administrators to deploy the chassis in
a wide range of network topologies in addition
to only Ethernet based networks.Technologies
supported by the chassis include Ethernet, Fast
Ethernet, Gigabit, E1/T1 & Serial
communications.
Future Expansion
The AT-CV5000 chassis has been designed with
the future in mind, with the inclusion of a rear
mounted expansion slot. In this slot can be
fitted say, a switching module, which could
convert the chassis from a media converter, to
a multi-port switch, with each port having a
modular interface.
Hassle Free Support
The Allied Telesyn AT-CV5000 Converteon
TM
chassis has a 2 year warranty and free technical
support, ensuring trouble-free installation.
