9 Shelf Management
The ATCA Shelves are designed to work with two redundant Shelf Managers in
dedicated Shelf Manager slots.
Upon request also a version with on-blade shelf management is available. With on-
blade shelf management, the I²C components of the PEMs and the SEEPROM are
connected to the internal I²C bus on the Fan Trays. The on-blade Shelf Manager
has access to these components via the IPM controller of the Fan Trays.
