Configuring Information
• Up to two PCI-to-System Area Network adapters (CCMAB-AA) are supported in a
single system.
• For two to eight system nodes, order one CCMHB-AA hub; order one CCMAB-AA
adapter and one BN39B-04 or BN39B-10 cable for each system node; make
connections from the CCMAB-AA in each system to the CCMHB
• CCMHB-AA includes four CCMLB-AA line cards and supports up to four nodes;
expansion up to eight system nodes can be achieved by adding up to four
CCMLB-AA line cards.
• If two CCMAB-AAs are configured in each system, a second CCMHB-AA is
required.
• If nodes must be separated by a distance longer than standard copper cables
allow the CCMFB option converts the output of the standard CCMAB controller or
CCMLB line card to single-mode fiber optic cable. The fiber optic connection may
be up to 2,000 meters long between two CCMAB controllers connected in virtual
hub mode, or 3,000 meters between a CCMAB controller and a CCMHB hub.
(The connection from the CCMHB hub to a second system may also be 3,000
meters.) The CCMFB option requires a second PCI slot in the system from which
it draws power only. It is normally connected to the corresponding CCMAB
controller with the short BN39B-01 cable. The CCMFB is also used in the CCMHB
hub where it occupies a slot normally used by the CCMLB line card, limiting
expansion to four radial fiber optic connections.
• CCMHB-BA hub expansion box provides additional slots for up to eight fiber optic
connections. Two standard length single-mode fiber optic cables are available
(BN34R-10 and BN34R-31); however, users normally provide this fiber optic
connection. Fiber optic connectivit
is completel
transparent to the s
stems usin
it and has no performance impact.
