1 Introduction
1.1 Description
The Transition Networks CPSMC19xx-100 19-Slot PointSystem™ chassis is a 19-
inch, rack-mountable chassis for selected Transition Networks media converter
slide-in-modules. The CPSMC19xx-100 allows the network administrator to con-
nect various copper and fiber-optic network media over protocols that include
Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, DS3/E3, and OC-12 and many others. The CPSMC19xx-
100 provides installation space for up to 19 single-slot media converter slide-in-
modules in the front of the unit.
With an installed PointSystem™ management module (P/N CPSMM-120 or -200),
the CPSMC19xx-100 can be managed and monitored via:
• An SNMP application such as Transition Networks FocalPoint™ manage-
ment software installed at a remote Network Management Station (NMS).
• A remote Web browser.
• A command-line interface (CLI) at an attached terminal.
• A command-line-interface (CLI) at a remote Telnet connection.
The management modules also make it possible to control up to eight (8) cascaded
CPSMC19xx-100 chassis fully populated with media converter slide-in-modules.
The CPSMC19xx-100 is equipped with an AC or DC Power Supply installed in the
back of the chassis. An extra installation space is available for an optional redun-
dant power supply (AC or DC) or an optional fan module.
Finally, the CPSMC19xx-100 also comes equipped with a pair of grounding lugs for
providing proper grounding of the chassis.
