CompactPCI enclosure with 8-slot 6U backplane

13 August 2003 Computer/Embedded Technology

Advantech's MIC-3081 series CompactPCI is a 10U-high enclosure with eight CompactPCI slots for rackmounting, which provides a flexible and configurable development platform. It supports 8-slot backplane H.110 CT bus backplane and rear I/O, designed to speed the implementation of telecom Internet and industrial automation applications.

A 2U space underneath the card slots accommodates two 163-CFM high-speed fans, to provide forced cooling air into the system. There are also two high-speed blowers on the top for linear air flow to optimise the chassis cooling system operation. All fans are also hot-swappable, for uninterruptible replacement.

The MIC-3081 has an optional intelligent chassis management module, the MIC-3924A, to monitor and report internal conditions via SNMP trap, e-mail, pager and beep sounds. The system's status, including CPU (SBC) temperature, system power voltage levels and fan speeds, can be easily checked from a remote Web browser for administrator monitoring. The chassis management module's serial port can be linked to a modem, to communicate to a remote host for realtime monitoring, module configuration and alarm reporting. No software is needed for remote monitoring since the SNMP/HTTP protocol provides an open platform for all the operating system.

The 6U-sized 8-slot backplane of the MIC-3081 supports 32/64-bit operation, and complies with PICMG 2.1 Hot-Swap Specification. Eight CompactPCI slots are available.
