ATTO Technology Inc. FibreBridge Installation and Operation Manual
1.1 ATTO FibreBridge 2370E
The ATTO FibreBridge 2370E is a 4-Gigabit Fibre Channel to SCSI bridge offering the ability to add
4-Gigabit Fibre Channel connectivity to Ultra320 SCSI devices.
The FibreBridge 2370E is available in an
embeddable card for easy integration into storage
devices.
Board dimensions
Width:
3.9 inches
Length:
7.995 inches
Height of tallest component:
.55 inches on top,
0.1 inches on bottom
Cooling and airflow
Operating Temperature:
0-40° C
Humidity:
10-90% non-condensing
Power
The FibreBridge board is
powered from a standard
4-pin disk drive power
connector.
Input voltage and power draw:
5.0V = 10 Watts,
12V = 24 Watts
Fibre Channel port
The 4-Gb Fibre Channel port can connect the
FibreBridge to either a Fabric or Arbitrated Loop
using a Small Formfactor Pluggable (SFP)
interface.
SCSI ports
The two SCSI ports connect storage devices into
the Fibre Channel Storage Area Network (SAN).
Each port is totally independent from the other.
The ports are Ultra320 SCSI busses with internal
HD68 connectors, downward compatible with all
forms of single-ended SCSI and all previous SCSI
protocols.
Ethernet port
The 10/100 Base T Ethernet port is accessible
from the RJ45 connector to provide local and
remote diagnostics, monitoring and management.
Serial management header
A serial 10-pin header
provides support for an
RS-232 remote
monitoring and
management port
through a Command Line Interface. The baud rate
is programmable and preset at the factory to
115200 bps.
LED indicators
On-board LED indicators are on the board front or
LED headers may be connected to outside panels.
SCSI ports:
a green LED indicates activity if it is
lit, no activity if it is off.
Fibre Channel port:
A green LED indicates
activity if it is lit, no activity if it is off. A green
LED indicates speed: you may set the LED to
signify 1 Gb/sec or 2 Gb/sec if it is off or 4 Gb/sec
or 2 Gb/sec if it is on.
A Ready LED
lights green to indicate ready and is
off to indicate not ready.
A Power Status LED
is on to indicate 5V and 12V
are applied to the board; flashing green indicates
that 12V is applied but 5V is not.
A Yellow LED indicates fault status:
off means
not faulted; on means faulted status.
Embedded in the Ethernet port connector:
a
lighted green LED shows a valid link; off
indicates that no link is present. A separate
blinking yellow LED indicates activity.
