Modular Cabinet PDU Keepout Panel
PDU keepout applies only when the PDU junction boxes reside at the bottom of the
modular cabinet. PDUs overlap the outside of the rack by 2 U (3.5 inches). A PDU
keepout panel is installed in affected space when:
•
1U keepout applies when a UPS occupies the bottom position of the modular
cabinet.
•
2U keepout applies when a processor slice occupies the bottom position of the
modular cabinet.
Processor Slice
The slice enclosure, which is 5U high and weighs 112 pounds (46 kilograms), has
these physical attributes:
•
Rack mountable
•
Redundant AC power feeds
•
Front-to-rear cooling
•
Cable connections at rear (power, reintegration, LSU) with cable management
equipment on the rear of the cabinet
Each slice enclosure includes these field replaceable units (FRUs):
•
Processor board with up to four Intel Intanium microprocessors, interface ASIC,
clock generation (accessed through front of enclosure)
•
Memory board that can hold up to 32 DIMMs, each one 4 GB, for a total memory
capacity of 128 GB (accessed through front of enclosure)
•
DIMMs
•
Reintegration board for managing internal memory traffic (accessed from top of
enclosure when enclosure is pulled forward on its rails)
•
Optic adapter plug-in cards (PICs) with two ports; two adapters minimum, eight
maximum (accessed from top of enclosure when enclosure is pulled forward on its
rails)
•
Redundant cooling fans (accessed from top of enclosure when enclosure is pulled
forward on its rails)
•
Redundant 220-240 V ac power supplies and power cords (accessed from back of
of enclosure)
•
I/O interface board for parallel to serial conversion and maintenance logic (requires
removal of enclosure from rack)
•
Front panel with indicator LEDs and power buttons
Note. The term slice is equivalent to the term NonStop Blade Element (NSBE). In future
