Back to SBC 5400 Hardware Installation Overview


In this section:

Sonus provides replacement units to the Customer, and the Customer performs the installation for these replacement units.

SBC 5400 Platform CRUs

Equipment Requirement

Description

Fan Assembly

Three cooling fan assemblies located behind the front bezel.

Solid State Drive

Solid State Disk (SSD) storage located behind the front bezel.

Air Filter

Located within the front bezel assembly for filtering the air drawn into the chassis by the cooling fans.

SFP/SFP+

Single or Multi mode fiber transceivers and Copper SFP/SFP+ (which functions like a plug) used for Ethernet connections
to Media ports and HA ports. Connect to LC-connector on the SFP side and SX-module on the other end of the connection
to L3 switch.

Power Supply

Up to two DC or AC power supplies accessible from rear of chassis.

Bezel

Secures replaceable air filter to front of chassis and identifies LED status indicators.

DSP2xDSP2x Signal Processing Cards (plug-in module with a high capacity DSP card).

DSP2x Signal Processing Cards for SBC 5400

This is the second generation Signal Processing Server (SPS) for SBC 5400 and provides increased signal processing capabilities over the earlier SPS100 card by incorporating the latest DSP technology. It is an add-on module that can connect to SBS100 motherboard through a 150-pin connector.

The DSP2x cards contain the actual DSP processing resources. SBC 5400 has four slots which provides maximum capacity. The cards are hot swappable and installable/replaceable in the field.

FPGA Reprogramming for DSP2x Module

The DSP2x module includes a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) that may occasionally require reprogramming. The reprogramming is fully autonomous and occurs during system reboot process. The only noticeable effect to the system is a slight increase to the duration of the system reboot. For each DSP2x installed, expect an additional 1-2 minutes added to the length of a normal reboot process.

Log messages pertaining to FPGA reprogramming are stored in the following files:

  • sbx_start.log_(timestamp) file is located in /var/log/sonus/sbx/openclovis directory. This file contains all logs related to system startup as well as a log of other scripts that call this FPGA reprogramming utility.
  • /var/log/messages file. 

The ESD Susceptibility symbol warns of the presence of Sonus devices susceptible to electrostatic discharge. Do not handle equipment without wearing a properly grounded ESD wrist strap.

  • No labels
