ICM
The 4U, 60 DAE external interfaces are made through the ICM. The ICM is the primary
interconnect management element.
The ICM is a plug-in module that includes a USB connector, RJ-12 management adapter,
Bus ID indicator, enclosure ID indicator, two input SAS connectors and two output SAS
connectors with corresponding LEDs indicating the link and activity of each SAS connector
for input and output to devices.
The ICM is hot-swapable. It has a built-in thumbscrew for ease of installation and removal.
As described previously, the ICMs in a 4U, 60 DAE connect to the SPE and other DAEs with
6-Gb/s SAS cables. The cables connect the ICMs in a system in a daisy-chain topology.
As shown in Figure 79, an enclosure ID
29
indicator is located on each ICM. Each ICM also
includes a bus (back-end port) identification indicator. The SP initializes the bus ID when
the operating system is loaded.
