10G-SW32LC-16M
Myri-10G switch line card with 16 front-panel Myrinet-protocol
10GBase-CX4 ports on mini-CX4 (DensiShield) connectors


10G-SW32LC-16M Line Card

The 10G-SW32LC-16M is for use as a "leaf" or "port" line card in these switch enclosures:

It may also be used paired with a 10G-THRU line card in these switch enclosures:

The 4 alignment pins for insertion into the enclosure backplanes are keyed to allow use of this line card only in these slots.

Specifications:

Front-panel network ports: 16 Myrinet-protocol 10GBase-CX4 ports on mini-CX4 (DensiShield) connectors, 10+10 Gbit/s data rate, full-duplex. (See this Guide to Myri-10G PHYs (pdf).)

Backplane ports: 16 Myrinet-protocol XAUI ports to the backplane.

Switch: Myri-10G XBar32 32-port switch with 110ns path-formation latency. Switch ports 0-15 connect to the front-panel ports as labeled. Switch ports 16-31 connect to the backplane ports.

Microcontroller functions: Self-test, board identification, voltage monitoring, temperature monitoring upstream & downstream in the air flow, port monitoring and control, and XBar32 scan path functions including port status, packet counts, and error counts. All status information is reported on demand through the serial link to a 10G-MONITOR-B monitoring line card. The µC will shut off the line-card power except for the µC section on over-temperature (greater than 55C) or other fault conditions.

Status LED: Located in the middle of the front panel: Off: not operating. Flashing Green: Initializing. Green: operating. Yellow: fault.

Power requirements: +12V input power from the backplane power connector. Maximum power used is 42W (3.5A @ 12V). The line card is hot-swappable.

Physical characteristics: Width is ~17 inches (432mm); depth is ~14 inches (356mm); height at the front panel is 0.8 inches (20.3mm), and weight is 0.9kg (2 pounds).

Environmental: Operating: Temperature 0C to 55C up to 10,000 foot altitude. Relative humidity 15% to 80% @ 50C, non-condensing. Storage: Temperature -40C to 70C. Relative humidity 90% @ 65C.

Regulatory Approvals: Fully compliant with EN55024 (1998 w/A1: 2001 & A2: 2003), EN55022 (1998) Class A, AS/NZS 3548 (1005 W/A1 & A2: 97) Class A, CISPR 22 (1997) Class A, FCC Part 15 Subpart B Section 15.109 Class A, VCCI (April 2000) Class A, & ICES-003 Class A (ANSI C63.4 1992). See the Index of Myri-10G Regulatory Reports.

Reduction of Hazardous Substances: This product is RoHS-compliant under the server exemption.
