The VT831 features dual Switching Shelf Managers (SSMs) that combines VadaTech’s 3rd Generation Shelf Manager with integrated GbE/10GbE/40GbE/100GbE switches on the same module. This allows two slots in the system to be used as Nodes (Payload Boards) versus having the slots otherwise be allocated as dedicated switching Hubs in the system. The backplane is routed as 100GbE so slot to slot connection can communicate at 100GbE as full mesh or via 100GbE switch (per ordering option).

The 6U 6-slot SlotSaver ATCA Chassis conforms to the latest PICMG 3.0 specification in 10G or 40G and 100G configurations. The Shelf has a 19” rackmount form factor compliant to EIA-310. The VT831 Shelf offers 10GbE/1GbE Layer 2 managed switches or 100GbE/40GbE/10GbE/1GbE Layer 3 managed switches. The Switching Shelf Managers have RTM capabilities for rear I/O.

The AC input of the Shelf provides N+1 redundancy, with options for DC or AC/DC combined configurations. The 6U ATCA Shelf offers exceptional thermal management with each slot dissipating up to 375W in a redundant push/pull configuration. The fan trays and air filters are all separately removable.

Power Supply

The VT831 shelf uses up to 3x swappable 1300W AC power supplies or 2x 90 Amp DC Power Entry Modules. The input voltage is from 100 to 240V AC or –36 to –72V DC.

Cooling and Temperature Sensors

The SlotSaver chassis has dual intelligent cooling units in a push-pull configuration (right-to-left). The redundancy allows fail-safe operation in case one of the cooling units becomes non-operational. There is a total of 6 temperature sensors in the chassis that monitor the airflow and temperature throughout the shelf.

Shelf Input/Output

RTMs are available per slot including the Switch/Shelf Manager slots.

Switching Shelf Manager

By combining the switch and shelf manager functions, two extra payload slots are available in the chassis. The SMM offers:

  • Layer 2 GbE/10GbE
  • Layer 3 GbE/10GbE/40GbE/100GbE
  • Use as protocol analyzer to monitor, inject, capture, and validate I2C traffic on the IPMB
  • GUI to validate and display the IPMI packets or schedule messages for injection into the shelf
  • Fully hot-swappable to minimize service down time
  • VadaTech Scorpionware™ Software

Scorpionware™ Software

VadaTech’s Scorpionware software can be used to access information about the current state of the Shelf or the Carrier, obtain information such as the FRU population, or monitor alarms, power management, current sensor values, and the overall health of the Shelf. The software GUI is very powerful, providing a Virtual Carrier and FRU construct for a simple, effective interface.
