OVERVIEW OF VM600 MPS HARDWARE
2.1.2 VM600 slimline rack – 19" rack with a height of 1U (ABE056)
A VM600 MPS can be housed in a slimline 19 inch rack (84TE) with a height of 1U (1HE),
known as the VM600 slimline rack (ABE056). It is a 19″ × 1U rack with 1 × VME slot in the
front of the rack and 2 × slots on the rear. The rack slots are designated slot 1 and slot n,
since it can be set to any slot number from slot 03 to 14. See Figure 2-4.
An example of a MPS housed in an ABE056 rack is shown in Figure 2-4.
An ABE056 contains a front card cage and a rear card cage. The card cages are separated
by the rack backplane. Each side of the backplane is equipped with connectors allowing
modules/cards to be quickly and easily installed.
The appearance of the front panel and rear panel of the rack depends entirely on the types
of cards installed in the two card cages. These cards are presented in the following sections
of this chapter.
NOTE: Both AC-input and DC-input versions of the 19” rack – 1U (ABE056) are available.
This should be specified during ordering (see 2.11 RPS1U rack power supply
(ABE056 only)).
FOR SAFETY REASONS, ANY VM600 SLIMLINE RACK (ABE056) SLOT
(CARD POSITION) NOT POPULATED BY A VM600 CARD MUST BE COVERED BY A
BLANK PANEL
