AM-6060 Network Server: Specifications and Configurations
Specifications for the AM-6060 are as follows.
Ports
Ports for connection to modems, an Ethernet network, and other functions are provided on the rear
panel of the AM-6060. Figure 2 shows details.
Four RJ-45 serial ports
—Serial ports on the AM-6060 provide full modem control, Super I/O
compatibility, and built-in lightning protection. Pinouts are the same as those on the AM-359
Serial I/O Expansion Card. The ports are mounted on an AM-90 Lightning board. An array of
zener diodes on the board guards against voltage surges caused by lightning strikes, accidental
power line crossings, and other damaging electrical fluctuations. See “Surge Protection” on page
16 for specifications of this feature.
In the AM-6060 environment, users are supported at networked workstations. For that reason
the AM-6060 does not provide serial port expansion beyond the four ports furnished as standard.
For application suggestions see “Serial Port Applications” on page 14.
10BaseT Ethernet port
—Standard feature of the AM-6060. A DB-15 AUI port can be
substituted for installations that require ThinNet or Thick Ethernet cabling.
External SCSI connector
—An external SCSI device cable, or a SCSI terminator, attaches
to this port. An AM-6060 ordered in the Wide SCSI configuration comes equipped with a
68-pin “P” connector; a narrow SCSI system has a 50-pin Centronics-type connector. The
appropriate style of SCSI terminator is furnished in each case.
RS-232 Diagnostic Interface
—This female DB-9 is cabled internally to the AM-6060 main
processor board. The port is not configurable at this time and no attachment should be made.
A parallel printer port is planned as an optional feature for future AM-6060 systems.
