12 IFC Networking—Serial Interface Board (SIB-NET)
The SIB-NET only mounts on the ICA-4L chassis. The IFC-1010/2020
system connects to and interfaces to the FN through the Media Interface
Board (MIB) and the SIB-NET. The MIB mounts onto the SIB-NET. For
more information on the ICA-4L, refer to the Hardware Installation
section of the IFC-1010/2020 Technical Manual (FAN 448).
The following example, along with Figures 4 and 5, illustrate installation
of a SIB-NET in the front left-hand position of an ICA-4L chassis.
Installation of boards in remaining ICA-4L positions involves a similar
procedure.
1.
Place the SIB in front of the ICA-4L in the installation position.
2.
Tilt the SIB into the ICA-4L and align the square slots on the board
with the front set of four tabs on the ICA-4L as illustrated in Figure 4.
