Mechanical Description
The iConverter 5-Module chassis consists of two AC or DC power supplies. As can be
seen from the model table on the previous page, the 5-Module chassis models have
been pre-congured with two power supplies. The power supplies provide power to
the chassis’ 5 backplane connectors.

Backplane Architecture
The chassis features 5 module slots numbered 1 (left-most positioned slot) through 5
(right-most positioned slot).
Backplane A and Backplane B provide Ethernet connectivity between adjacent slots.
iConverter 5-Module Chassis Backplane Architecture
The gure above depicts the backplane architecture of the chassis showing Backplane
A and Backplane B connectivity.
Backplane A connects odd numbered slots on the left to even numbered slots on the
right (i.e. 1-2, 3-4).
Backplane B connects even numbered slots on the left to odd numbered slots on the
right (i.e. 2-3, 4-5).
When modules with Backplane capabilities are inserted into adjacent chassis slots,
they can connect to each other via the Ethernet backplanes when enabled, creating a
exible network architectures.
This chassis architecture facilitates a variety of applications including unmanaged, in-
band managed and multi-port congurations.
Application Example
The gure below illustrates the connectivity of Backplane A and Backplane B when
multiple modules are installed in the chassis. Modules supporting backplane connectivity
(such as the iConverter 10/100M2 and iConverter 4TxVT) can be connected via the
appropriate backplane creating a multi-port device. The gure show a iConverter
10/100M2 module is installed in slot 1 and a iConverter 4TxVT module is installed in
slot 2. Both modules have Backplane A enabled. Utilizing the Ethernet backplane
between the slots, a 5+1 switch (5 RJ-45 ports and 1 ber port) is created.
