Overview
This manual describes the hardware features and installation
procedures for ATI’s set of TurboStack™ (TS) hubs that are not
manageable as standalone devices. These “Slave” devices include the
AT-TS12FS/ST, SC, SM; AT-TS24TRS; and AT-TS24TS models. For
information on the software installation and network management
aspects of TurboStack hubs, refer to the separate
TurboStack™ AT-S10
Firmware Module for TurboStack Hubs Operations Manual.
Slave Hub Features
The TurboStack AT-TS12FS/ST, SC, SM; AT-TS24TRS; and AT-TS24TS
are multiple port hubs that offer maximum flexibility and redundancy for
department needs. These “Slave” hubs can operate as non-managed
standalone hubs or are manageable in an ATI department concentrator
chassis.
Note
This manual refers to two or more chassis-mounted hubs, at least one of
which is manageable, as a
department concentrator
. The term
hub
refers to
either a standalone device (i.e., a single manageable hub) or as part of a
department concentrator configuration.
Each hub is manageable by the Master as a single building block for
TurboStack chassis (department concentrator) configurations
with
segmented backplane
s. ATI’s TurboStack rackmount department
concentrator chassis can hold up to six hubs in combination with either an
AT-TS90TR or an AT-TS95TR switch module in the bottom slot of the
chassis. Installation of a switch module is optional and requires use of a
segmented backplane instead of the standard backplane used for non-
segmented hubs.
The TurboStack department concentrator chassis can also be configured to
connect up to eight hubs across a
standard shared backplane
. In this
configuration, a fully populated department concentrator behaves as a
single hub in the network topology. This enables you to build and
reconfigure networks easily, efficiently and at minimum expense.
