Overview

Introduction

The VMIACC-5595* is a managed hub, designed to operate with GE’s VMIxxx-5565

Reflective Memory products. Without a hub device, the Reflective Memory nodes

must be networked together in a daisy-chained loop. In the hub-less configuration if

one node becomes inoperable, the entire loop becomes disabled. When the

VMIACC-5595 hub is incorporated into the network, the network is converted from a

loop to a star configuration. In the star configuration if one node becomes inoperative,

that node is bypassed by the VMIACC-5595 and the remaining nodes on the network

remain operational. When a network consists of a large number of nodes or if the

nodes are widely dispersed over an area, the star configuration is easier to build and

maintain.

The VMIACC-5595 automatically bypasses a port when it detects a loss of signal or

the absence of a valid synchronization pattern, allowing the remaining nodes to

continue to operate. Each port on the VMIACC-5595 regenerates the serial optical

signal, eliminating problems with insertion losses and cable attenuation. Signal

regeneration also reduces jitter.

The optical ports are implemented with Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP)

transceivers (see Figure 1 on page 8). Only the required ports need to be populated.

The SFP transceivers can be a mix of multimode (short distance) or single-mode (long

distance) transceivers. This feature permits a cost savings in small networks, as well

as system optimization. For larger networks, several VMIACC-5595 hubs can be

cascaded, permitting a managed hub array with up to 256 nodes.

An RS232 port permits local monitoring and control of the Reflective Memory

network using a standard PC serial port. The Ethernet port (10BaseT) can be used to

monitor and control the hub from great distances through a Local Area Network

(LAN) or with the use of a Web browser.

The VMIACC-5595 is available as a 19-inch 1U rack mountable enclosure or as a

desktop enclosure. The universal power supply permits operation with nearly any

international power standard. Figure 2 on page 9 is a functional block diagram of the

VMIACC-5595 Hub Assembly.

VMIACC-5595 Installation Guide

The VMIACC-5595 can operate without the use of the Ethernet port or the RS232 port.

When first activated, the VMIACC-5595 operates using the factory default

configuration with each optical port in the auto bypass mode and the bypass is based

on detection of Loss of Signal (LOS).

Features

• Designed for use with GE’s VMIxxx-5565 Reflective Memory products

• Provides up to 8 ports per hub assembly using Small Form-Factor Pluggable

(SFP) transceivers

• Hub assemblies can be cascaded up to the maximum 256 node limit

• Automatically bypasses disabled or disconnected nodes in a fiber-optic

network

• Automatic bypass controlled by the loss of signal or by the loss of sync pattern

• Each port regenerates the serial optical signal to eliminate link losses and to

reduce jitter

• 10Base-T Ethernet TCP/IP port for remote access and control

• RS232 port for local access and control

• Available as either a 19-inch 1U rack mount or desktop enclosure

• Internal universal power supply

• Dark-on-Dark option turns off the board’s transmitter controller if the receiver

does not detect a signal or detects invalid data patterns (available for firmware

versions 02.00 and later)
