ClearCube Architecture and Product Overview The ClearCube architecture delivers Intel-based PC functionality to the desktop from a secure, centralized location. This results in dramatic increases in manageability and security while providing mission-critical reliability, performance, and uptime improvements with lowered costs. Replacing a traditional PC box with a ClearCube C/Port or I/Port in an office or cubicle also saves space, eliminates fan noise and simplifies cabling resulting in a clear cube.
Figure 1 R Series PC Blades (Single and Dual Processor) A display area at the front of each Blade provides active status indicators. The four LEDs are described in Table 1 and depicted in Figure 2.
Table 1 Blade LED Functions LED Power Color Description Green Blade is powered on. Off Blade is powered off. Green C/Port is connected and link is good. Red C/Port is not connected or link is bad. Green Flashing indicates hard drive activity. C/Port Disk Off E-Net No hard drive activity. Green Model R1200: 1000 Mb/s link — flashing indicates activity. Model R2100: 10/100/1000 Mb/s link — flashing indicates activity.
R Series Cage The ClearCube R Series Cage is a centralized chassis that houses as many as eight single-processor PC Blades and as many as four dual processor PC Blades. A standard 42U 19-inch rack can hold as many as fourteen Cages, for a total of 112 single-processor PC Blades. Each Cage is a self-contained unit providing all of the Ethernet connections, C/Port connections, airflow management, and power connections that the PC Blades need.
BackPack R4300 BackPack The R4300 BackPack, shown in Figure 4, provides a wide range of options for C/Port and I/Port connections to Blades and to the ClearCube network. Figure 4 R4300 BackPack Rear View The R4300 BackPack provides advanced monitoring and switching functionality, with software support for these modules provided by Switch Manager 4.6. The R4300 BackPack and Switch Manager 4.6 are fully compatible with all R-series Blades.
• Supervisor View or Control – This mode allows a supervisor to share the view of any desktop’s monitor screen. This feature is useful for training, collaborative troubleshooting, and performance monitoring. Effectively, the user’s video monitor signal is split to route to both the end user’s monitor and the supervisor’s monitor. Thus, as a hardware solution, end users cannot tell whether or not a supervisor is sharing the screen view.
Direct Connect BackPack The Direct Connect BackPack, shown in Figure 6, brings the C/Port connections and the Ethernet connections directly to the back panel from each individual PC Blade.
C/Port The C/Port, shown in Figure 7, is a desktop unit to which a user’s standard peripherals are connected. The C/Port supports a 200m (660 ft) connection distance from the Blade and has two USB ports, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports, speaker and microphone ports and video output port. Other C/Port options such as the Multi-Video Expander (MVX) are also available from ClearCube. More detailed product specifications are provided in Appendix A.
Multi-Video Solution The ClearCube multi-video solution provides a revolutionary way to multi-task and process information. While the C/Port provides all the peripheral and USB connections, the multiplexed video signal can be passed through to the Multi-Video Expander (MVX) via a noise-limiting VGA connector cable. The MVX distributes the individual video frames to the appropriate output connectors. The two video outputs on the MVX are special, high-density connectors that can each drive two monitors.
Fiber Optic Extension System The Fiber Optic Extension System adds fiber optic connectivity to the ClearCube architecture via a pair of multi-mode fiber optic cables. The system is compatible with ClearCube R Series Cages, BackPacks, and Blades. It securely extends user desktops from centralized PC Blades to a distance as great as 500 meters over a pair of 62.5 micron multi-mode fibers. The system consists of two components: the Fiber Transceiver and the Fiber C/Port.
In addition, the Fiber C/Port contains auto-tuning circuitry that eliminates the need for manual RGB and sharpness tuning by the user. The termination connector adheres to the MT-RJ standard, which has the benefits of small size, easy termination, and broad industry support. NOTE: The Fiber C/Port has a unique power supply. The power supplies for the standard C/Port and Multi-Video Expander (MVX) look very similar, but will not work with a Fiber C/Port.
that sufficient network bandwidth is available. The Eon e100 is available with either the Windows XPe or the NeoLinux operating system. Included with the Eon e100 is ezRemote Manager software, which you can use to remotely install security updates, peripheral drivers and applications – it can even deploy complete, customized images to your entire enterprise.
ClearCube Grid Center Software ClearCube Grid Center provides IT administrators with a comprehensive set of features and functionality for managing their I/Port environments. Grid Center can optimize hardware utilization by dynamically allocating I/Ports to a defined pool of PC Blades. Grid Center tracks Blade loading statistics and automatically initiates a connection to the least utilized Blade when each user logs on. Power users can be mapped to an individual Blade ensuring maximum performance.

Network Planning and Site Preparation Rack and Cabinet Requirements Before installing the components of the ClearCube Architecture it is very important to properly prepare the site where you will install the Cages and PC Blades. This chapter provides important information on how to plan for installation. Figure 12 Standard 19" Rack (left) and Standard 19" Cabinet Figure 12 shows the two most popular structures for holding ClearCube Cages.
CAUTION: Equipment racks and cabinets can become highly unstable if not adequately secured. Please read and follow the manufacturer's specifications and recommendations for mounting instructions. Additional ClearCube guidelines are provided throughout this section that – with the manufacturer's requirements – will ensure a safe installation. Fully enclosed electrical cabinets are the preferred option for mounting your ClearCube Cages.
Cooling and Airflow Requirements Each complete Cage produces between 2000 and 2800 btu/hr (590 to 820 Watts) of heat, depending on processor activity. Ensure that the air conditioning and ventilation system for the installation area can accommodate this thermal load. The rear of the Cage has air vents for four fans. The fan openings must be at least four inches from any airflow impeding barriers such as walls, the rear of the rack door or panel, large bundles of cables, etc.

Cage and Blade Installation Installation of ClearCube products is straightforward and can be accomplished in just a few hours. The following instructions are intended for use by IT technicians familiar with computer systems at the hardware configuration level.
• Monitors and keyboards – Monitors are normally shipped in their own cartons. Keyboards, if not included with user ports, may be bulk-packaged. Shipping cartons and packing materials should be retained until your ClearCube installation has been completed and tested. Cage Installation Unpacking the Cage Open the Cage box, remove the packing material, and check the Cage for any visible damage. Contact the carrier for an immediate on-site inspection if damage is found.
Cages using the Chassis Accessory kit can be installed either from the front or from the rear of the rack. Cages using the CRM kit can be installed only from the front of the rack. Begin installing Cages at the bottom of the rack or cabinet. This provides support for each Cage before it is securely mounted, and greatly simplifies getting the Cage square and level in the rack.
Figure 16 Side View of Cage Centered in a 2-Post Rack 6. Attach the AC power cord(s) packaged and supplied with the Cage/BackPack and route it to the rear panel power connector(s) and then to a surge-protected power source such as an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) or power strip. Use the cable retention clamp on the Cage to avoid inadvertently disconnecting the power. Use the AC power cord packaged and supplied with the Cage/BackPack.
Cage Rapid Mount Kit The Cage Rapid Mount kit allows installing Cages in a cabinet enclosure or other rack that provides both front and rear posts. To install a Cage using the Cage Rapid Mount (CRM) kit, do the following: Front Rack Ears Locking Latch Main Bracket Spring Slider Slider (Back) Rack Ears Finger Handle Flanges Figure 17 Rack Bracket for Cage Rapid Mount Kit 1. Unscrew the thumbscrew holding each pair of Cage and rack brackets together, and slide the brackets apart. 2.
Back of Rack Bracket Front of Rack Bracket Figure 18 Rack Bracket Attachment Points 4. Pull the rack bracket forward and insert the front rack ears on the back bracket into holes on the front side of the front post. Push forward on the ears until the latch snaps and locks into place. Ensure the front ears are placed into the corresponding holes as the back ears, so that the rack bracket is level. To remove, pull the finger tab inward with your finger and slide the ears forward. 5.
Use the AC power cord packaged and supplied with the Cage/BackPack. For systems shipped to countries that utilize a 110–130-volt power system, the power cord is rated at 15 amps. Systems shipped to countries with a 208-volt power systems are packaged with power cords rated at 10 amps. Older model BackPacks utilized 10 amp-rated power cords that are NOT approved for use with current model BackPacks on 110–130-volt power systems.

Each RMM in an R4300 series BackPack provides an Ethernet connection, allowing it to control a chain of as many as 14 Cages. If an RMM is not connected to Ethernet, it does not auto-negotiate, and provides control and monitoring only for the Cage in which it is installed. The RMM has three auto-negotiation modes: • Primary (including jumper-strapped Primary) • Secondary • Standby The model for auto-negotiation assumes that a given network contains a mix of R4300 BackPacks, and legacy BSBPs and DCBPs.
• If your Control Chain contains a mix of R4300s, BSBPs, and/or DCBPs and you have an RMC installed in a BSBP or DCBP, that RMC is always the Primary and it does not provide access to all of the functions of the R4300. • If you add BSBPs or DCBPs to a Control Chain that contains one or more RMMs, exchange BackPacks with RMCs installed for BackPacks that do not have RMCs. NOTE: Maintain the default setting of JP1 on the RMM (auto-negotiation enabled). See Figure 30 on page 63.
Resetting the RMM Settings to the Factory Defaults In normal use, the RMM is configured using Switch Manager 4.6. However, it can be reset to its factory configurations by pressing the DFLT pinhole switch on the back of the RMM. Table 11 provides the default RMM settings. For information on configuring an RMM with Switch Manager, see the Switch Manager 4.6 Administrator’s Guide.

• Configure the Blade Switching BackPack for Various Modes: Configuration of your Blade Switching BackPack depends on that modes of operation you will use. All modes can be used together, or individual modes can be used alone. • Spare Switching Configuration: Multiple spare PC Blades can be configured per Cage. At the other extreme, one spare can be made available to support 14 Cages.
NOTE: Every primary Cage/BackPack with an RMC installed is shipped with the same default network settings. If you are using multiple Cage groups, you must configure new IP addresses per the instructions below to avoid a conflict. Default RMC Settings: IP Address: Gateway: Network: Netmask: 192.168.1.251 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 Changing the IP Address of the RMC To change the IP address on an RMC, do the following: 1.

PC Blade Installation Unpacking the PC Blades Once the Cage has been installed and connected to power and signal connections, open the PC Blade boxes and remove the PC Blades. Examine each PC Blade for damage as a result of shipping. If you find any damage contact the carrier to file a claim and call the ClearCube Customer Service Department for replacement. CAUTION: Do not use any PC Blade that shows any sign of damage. Subsequent damage from a defect caused by shipping could be extensive.
NOTE: When you insert the PC Blade, the power does NOT turn on automatically. You must depress the power button on the front of the Blade to power it on. Note that the blue LCD panel and the C/Port indicator remains lit, independently of whether the Blade is powered on. These indicators run off of stand-by power. After the first on/off cycle, you can power the Blade back on from the shutdown state by either pushing the power button on the Blade or the Reset/Power button on the C/Port.
User Port Installation C/Port Installation Unpacking the C/Port When unpacking the C/Port you will find one of each of the following items: • C/Port unit • C/Port power supply and power cord A special tuning tool for adjustments is included with the documentation and software package in your shipment. A mounting adapter is available as an option from ClearCube to conveniently mount a C/Port underneath a desktop.
2. Connect USB devices first to the C/Port and then plug in the power cord for the USB device (if applicable). 3. Connect the CPU link cable from the PC Blade to the C/Port. For dual processor Blades, the C/Port cable must be connected to the secondary C/Port jack on the BackPack (e.g., if the Blade is placed in slots 3 and 4, the C/Port cable should be plugged into C/Port jack #4 on the BackPack). CAUTION: Do not attach the C/Port to a telephone jack or other powered network connection.
operating system. For Windows operating systems, right-click in an open space on your screen, choose Properties, and then click on the Settings tab. NOTE: Depending on the quality and distance of the C/Port cabling being used, very high resolutions can be supported. A resolution of 1600x1200 can be supported at a distance as great as 200 meters using quality CAT5 cables. See Table 2 on page 26 for more information. Adjusting Image Sharpness 1.
Figure 35 ClearCube C/Port Color and Sharpness Tuning Guide Figure 36 ClearCube C/Port Bottom View Note that as you adjust the switches the monitor screen goes black momentarily for each click-stop, and then the image returns. This is the correct operation of the adjustment circuit. In addition, there is one click-stop position on each switch where the monitor screen remains blank. Again, this is the correct operation of the switch circuit.
along the left side of the screen has been eliminated, re-adjust the sharpness control for the best image. This completes the tuning procedure for the C/Port. Re-adjusting the C/Port If, during the adjustment procedure, you become lost or confused, it is best to just start over again. Begin by resetting the color switches to the Off positions. Do this by adjusting each switch, one at a time, until it turns the picture off and then advance the switch by one position, to Position 1.
Figure 38 Model R2100 Mass Storage Lockout Jumper Location and Setting Fiber C/Port Installation Installing the Fiber C/Port The Fiber C/Port installation and setup is the same as a standard C/Port, but does not require video tuning adjustments. Figure 39 shows the connections on the back of a Fiber C/Port. Locate your C/Port in a ventilated area away from any heat sources. For example, do not stack your C/Port on top of monitor ventilation vents or on top of other significant heat generating devices.
\ Front View Back View Figure 39 Fiber C/Port Rear View Adjusting the Fiber C/Port The Fiber C/Port is nearly identical to a standard C/Port, with three important differences: • The input jack is designed for a dual fiber, 62.5-micron MT-RJ connector. • There are no manual tuning dials on the unit. The Fiber C/Port contains automatic gain control (AGC) circuitry, which alleviates the need for the manual sharpness (equalization) or RGB (delay line) tuning.
I/Port Installation Caution Statements Improper connection, mounting, or use of this product could result in component failure or undesired interference. Read the following caution statements before setting up and operating your I/Port. Setup • Do not connect to AC power until all other connections are made, including the power adapter. Connecting or disconnecting components or equipment on the back panel when the I/Port is receiving AC power can cause power surges and damage the device.
Unpacking the I/Port When unpacking the I/Port, you will find one of each of the following items: • I/Port unit • I/Port power supply and power cord (optional for some regions) • Optional mouse and keyboard (may be shipped separately) Installing the I/Port on the Desktop To install an I/Port, do the following: 1. Make connections as shown in Figure 40. CAUTION: Do not attach the I/Port to a telephone jack. This will permanently damage the I/Port.
– across the hall, across town, or across an ocean from each other – provided that you have network access from the I/Port to the PC Blade, you have sufficient network bandwidth (> 50 kbps for each I/Port), and you have the appropriate permissions set up on the Blade. ClearCube Grid Center software is used for initiating connections from I/Ports to Blades. Please see the Grid Center Administrator’s Guide for installation and configuration details.
before making the change, and re-enable it after you have committed the change. The Write Filter is a software feature that prevents any inadvertent or undesired writes to the Flash Drive where the I/Port’s operating system and other software is stored. When you push software updates using ezRemote Manager software, the Write Filter is managed automatically. See Updating Software on the Eon e100 and Capio One I/Ports on page 91 for more information. The Write Filter displays an icon in the system tray.
RDP allows several configurable capabilities. Enabling each additional capability requires more bandwidth, thus impacting performance. The ideal I/Port performance optimization process will lead to the best possible experience within any limitations of your operating environment.
Figure 43 RDP Local Resources Tab • Experience – Selecting a connection speed causes specific items listed in the connection speed pull-down menu to become checked or unchecked. Generally, the desktop background, especially if it is an image, is a significant source of performance slowdowns. The reason is that every time a window is moved within an RDP session, new parts of the background get exposed and need to be re-transmitted. This is generally a slow and time-consuming process.
2. Install the printer driver from a USB-attached storage device. 3. Double-click on the Write Filter icon in the system tray and select Commit changes to disk and disable write filter.
