ABOUT THE IMEDIACHASSIS/20
The iMediaChassis series is a modular chassis platform designed for use with
B&B Electronics’ Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) manageable
series of modules. The iMediaChassis/20 is a 3U high, rack mountable chassis
that features 20 slots for installing application series modules plus an additional
slot for installing an SNMP Management Module. Power supply modules are
user-replaceable and hot-swappable.
The iMediaChassis/20 line offers models available in dual AC, dual DC and
ACDC versions.
It offers features such as end-user replaceable power
supply modules, temperature monitoring, Last Gasp and an Alarm Reset
Button.
HARDWARE FEATURES
ALARM RESET, LAST GASP AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The iMediaChassis/20 series supports power supply modules, so that worn parts
can be replaced without having to send an entire unit in for repair.

User-Replaceable
Power Supply Modules
Figure 1: iMediaChassis/20, all models
ALARM RESET BUTTON
When one power supply module malfunctions, an audible alarm sounds
indicating the loss of the power module. The alarm can be silenced by pressing
the Alarm Reset Button, located next to the power connector on the power supply
module. If this occurs, remove and replace the power supply module
immediately. (LEDs on the Management Module and the power supply module
itself also indicate power supply module failures.)
LAST GASP ALARM
The iMediaChassis series includes the Last Gasp trap feature, “Remote Chassis
Down”, which sends a Trap when the following occurs:
• Both power supply modules malfunction.
• Both power supply modules are powered down.
• When the AC line fails.

IMediaChassis Series

TEMPERATURE GAUGE
The iMediaChassis/20 includes a temperature monitoring gauge with a heat
sensor on the backplane of the chassis. Users define a threshold for chassis
temperature via SNMP. If the chassis’ temperature rises above the specified
level, the SNMP agent sends a trap (configured in iView²) to the administrator.
There is also an LED indicator on the SNMP Management Module for chassis
temperature.
SNMP WRITE LOCK
There is an SNMP Write Lock switch located below slot #3 on the front of the
iMediaChassis/20. The SNMP Write Lock switch prevents a new management
board from re-configuring the application
module settings (e.g., the status of features
such as LinkLoss, FiberAlert, Force mode,
etc.) made via SNMP on any previous
Management Modules.
Figure 2: SNMP Write Lock Switch
NOTE
Leave this switch in the NORMAL position during day-to-day operation; the LOCKED
position should only be used when changing the SNMP management board.
The SNMP Management Module can be removed and replaced as necessary.
Refer to the SNMP Management Module manual for complete instructions about
configuration and operation. If an SNMP Management Module is installed, refer
to the LED panel below for indicators of Link, Temperature, Power supply
modules and other functions.

SNMP MANAGEMENT MODULE LEDS
The SNMP Management Module features several LEDs. The LED functions are:
LNK/ACT
FDX/COL
TEMP
PS
FAN A / FAN B
Glows green when a link is established on
port. Blinks green when data activity occurs.
Glows yellow when port is in Full-duplex
mode. Blinks yellow when port is operating in
Half-duplex mode and collisions occur.
Glows yellow when temperature of unit
surpasses a user-defined level.
Glows yellow when one module malfunctions.
Glows yellow when a fan malfunctions.
Installing the iMediaChassis/20
Install the chassis first before installing any modules into an iMediaChassis.
When installing the chassis, be sure to observe the following precautions to
prevent electrical or mechanical damage:
1. Protect the chassis from exposure to sunlight and electrical or magnetic
fields.
2. Ensure that the equipment rack remains stable, even with the addition of the
chassis and its associated cabling.
To install 20 -slot Rackmount chassis:
1. Have four #10 screws and four clip nuts available (hardware may vary
depending on rack type). The rest of the hardware is supplied with the unit.
2. Locate a suitable location in the rack for installation and secure the clip-nuts
onto the mounting rails. Use screws to attach the chassis to the rack.
3. Plug the chassis into a reliable, filtered power source.
4. Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may

IMediaChassis Series
5
be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the B+B SmartWorx.
5. Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised.
6. Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such
that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
7. Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the
equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits
might have on over current protection and supply wiring.
8. Reliable Grounding - Reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment should
be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections
other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).
9. All AC and DC versions are intended for use in a Restricted Access Location
(RAL).
DC POWER SUPPLY MODULE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
The following diagram shows the wiring configuration for a -48 VDC
power supply module for the iMediaChassis/20-2DC and
iMediaChassis/20-ACDC.
Figure 3: DC Wiring Scheme
NOTE
The chassis is protected against incorrect wiring configurations. When wired incorrectly, the
chassis will not function, but no damage will occur.

Installing SNMP Management and Application (iMcV-) Modules
To install a module:
1. Remove the blank bracket (if present) covering the slot where the module
will be installed. B+B SmartWorx recommends installing blank brackets in
unused module slots.
2. Slide the module into the chassis using the card guides.
3. Secure the module to the chassis by tightening the captive screw. (Refer to
the documentation shipped with the module for configuration information.)
4. When installing modules observe ESD precautions, refer to the Electrostatic
Discharge Precautions section.
In order to manage an iMediaChassis series, the SNMP Management Module
needs to be installed in the appropriate slot of the chassis.
Install the iMediaChassis/20 SNMP Management Module into the first slot of the
chassis.
NOTE
This slot is ONLY for the Management Module; do not install Application Modules
such as media conversion and mode conversion modules in this slot.

REPLACING POWER SUPPLY MODULES
USER REPLACEABLE POWER SUPPLIES
The iMediaChassis power supply modules are redundant *, failed power supply
modules should promptly be replaced to maintain network integrity and prevent
data loss.
To replace a power supply module:
1. Disconnect the power source from the power supply module.
2. Remove the screws of the retainer plate (on some AC modules).
3. Move the Power Supply Release switch toward the right or unscrew captive
release screw.
4. Before grasping the power supply module by the silver handle, press the
release screw and then slide out of the chassis (Power supply modules are
hot-swappable).
5. Install new power supply module. If module is equipped with an ON/OFF
switch install the module with the switch in the OFF position.
