1. Scope and Introduction
1.1 Scope
This manual provides user information for both the Fivemere SBU14C
and the SBU6C. Although there is indeed no actual ‘operation’ of these
shelves, it is necessary to understand their functionality both from the
point of view of the services they provide as a host to shelf-mounted
products.
These products were previously known as CBU/14 and CBU/6.
1.2 Introduction
Both shelves allow for dense concentration of Fivemere communications
products together with centralised management, alarm reporting, and
resilient Power Supplies. They are designed to accept present and
future Fivemere Shelf mounting products. These products are designed
to be on line compatible with the earlier Fivemere ISDN products.

2.3 Power Supply Capacities/Redundancy
2.3.1 SBU14C
Up to 3 power supplies can be fitted to the 19” Shelf system. Each one
is capable of providing the complete Shelf power requirement (at 120W).
It’s a matter of choice whether one, two or three PSUs are fitted, such
decision generally being based upon the redundancy/reliability versus
the load requirement of the equipment fitted.
The SBU14C can therefore operate in the following modes with one, two
or three PSUs :-
No of PSUs Power
Requirement Redundancy status
One PSU 120W no redundancy
Two PSUs 120W full redundancy
Two PSUs 240W no redundancy
Three PSUs 240W full Redundancy
Three PSUs 360W no redundancy
The above ratings reflect the overall output capacity of the supply.
Each of the SBU14C power supply modules can deliver the following
maximum currents:
+5V +12V -12V
10A 6.5A 1A
When installing cards into the SBU14C, the installation engineer must
ensure that the shelf power supplies’ combined outputs can meet both
the overall power requirements and the individual rail current
requirements of all the cards in the shelf. (Please refer to the relevant
manuals for this information on the cards). This is true whether allowing
for redundancy or not.

SBU SystemsUser Manual
80-30200000-032-6
2.3.2 SBU6C
Up to 2 power supplies can be fitted to the SBU6C. Each one is capable
of providing the complete Shelf power requirement (at 50W). It’s a
matter of choice whether one or two PSUs are fitted, such decision
generally being based upon the redundancy/reliability versus the load
requirement of the equipment fitted.
The SBU6C can therefore operate in the following modes with one or two
PSUs :-
No of PSUs Power
Requirement Redundancy status
One PSU 50W no redundancy
Two PSUs 50W full redundancy
Two PSUs 100W no redundancy
The above ratings reflect the overall output capacity of the supply.
Each of the SBU6C power supply modules can deliver the following
maximum currents:
+5V +12V -12V
5A 1A 1A
When installing cards into the SBU6C, the installation engineer must
ensure that the shelf power supplies’ combined outputs can meet the
individual rail current requirements of all the cards in the shelf. (Please
refer to the relevant manuals for this information on the cards). This is
true whether allowing for redundancy or not.

3.2 Cooling
3.2.1 SBU14C
Cooling for the whole SBU14C system is provided by the fans mounted
in the PSUs. The fans are driven directly from the shelf backplane
,
running whether or not the PSU(s) are operational. If any fan fails then
the fan failure signal is monitored by the SBUGSM/SBULSM, and output
as an ALERT.
Any unused power supply positions must be covered by a blanking plate.
3.2.2 SBU6C
Cooling is provided by a permanently installed fan ( i.e. not in the PSUs).
The status of this fan is available to the SBUGSM/SBULSM, and an
ALERT is generated should the fan fail.
3.3 Generic Shelf Manager Module (SBUGSM)
The SBUGSM provides management for all application cards mounted
in either Shelf providing the focus for network (and terminal)
management activities.
Please see section 4 for a detailed description of this module.
3.4 LAN Shelf Manager Module (SBULSM)
The SBULSM front card provides the same facilities as the SBUGSM
and in addition has a Local Area Network “10baseT” (LAN) port. This
port provides the following additional features:-
• Telnet access for management of all cards in the shelf via the LAN
connection
• SNMP Trap reporting of ALERTs from all cards.
There is a choice of SBULSM rear panels. The SBULSM rear panel
provides the LAN connectivity. With the SBUGSM rear panel, no
additional facilities are provided over the SBUGSM.
3.5 Generic Port Sharer Module (SBUGPS)
The SBUGPS is a 7-channel unit. It resides in either Shelf in order to
allow a user to control up to 7 management channels from one terminal.

Overview of Shelf Modules
80-30200000-03 3-3
These management channels can be either SBUGSM/SBULSM modules
or other Fivemere managed equipment.
Please see section 6 for a detailed description of this module.

Generic Shelf Manager Module
80-30200000-03 4-1
4. Generic Shelf Manager Module
4.1 Overview
The Generic Shelf Manager Card (the SBUGSM) provides management
for all application cards mounted in either the SBU14C or SBU6C
providing the focus for network (and terminal) management activities.
Please see section 5 for the LAN Shelf Manager Card.
The SBUGSM provides an interface between a terminal or port sharer
and a complete shelf of cards. It has an Alarm port and a Command
port which appear to a SBUGPS as a single card but offering a range of
polling addresses.
The SBUGSM’s purpose is to monitor the status of the application cards,
collect alarm messages from them and route them to the command or
alarm port as appropriate, and also to configure and control application
cards in polled mode.
The SBUGSM communicates with the application cards (TA 64, Primary
Rate Module etc.) via the Configuration bus and System bus on the
backplane. No external connection is necessary.
