AT-3624TRS Connectivity
30
As shown in the above figure, the AT-3624TRS uses 24 RJ45 connectors
for UTP. Since the AT-3624TRS model does not incorporate management
agent software, it can operate only as part of a non-managed hub or as a
Slave module in an ATI department concentrator chassis.
Features
Table 6 summarizes the features of the AT-3624TRS hub, including model
number, port count, and media/connector type for each Slave hub.
Table 6: AT-3624TRS Features
The AT-3624TRS is IEEE 802.3 compliant and Ethernet compatible. When
used in conjunction with an AT-3600 Master in a department concentrator
chassis, the AT-3624TRS supports ATI’s Omega Agent, Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP), the second version of the Management
Information Base (MIB-II) and Hub MIB.
For the AT-3624TRS hub to be manageable, another hub must perform as
a Master in the chassis. hubs in the AT-3600 series that can function as a
Master are the AT-3606F, the AT-3606F/SMA, the AT-3606F/SC, the
AT-3606F/ST,
the AT-3606F/SM,
the AT-3608, the AT-3612T, the AT-3612TR,
the AT-3624T, and the AT-3624TR.
Each manageable AT-3600 Series hub is a single building block for both
standalone (hub) and chassis (department concentrator) configurations.
ATI supplies desktop and rackmount department concentrator chassis
that can hold up to eight AT-3600 Series hubs. Since the department
concentrator chassis connects hub modules across a backplane, a fully
populated department concentrator behaves as a single hub in the
network topology. This enables you to build and reconfigure networks
easily, efficiently and at minimum expense.
Configurations
The AT-3624TRS is what is commonly called a
Slave
hub because it
depends on a
Master
hub for management, the AT-3624TRS hub can
function in any of the following three configurations:
❑
As a standalone hub: A standalone hub performs simple
regeneration and retiming tasks in a variety of network
configurations.
❑
As a hub module in an ATI 3600 series chassis: When installed in
an ATI 3600 series chassis up to eight modules can collectively act
as a single logical hub without a Master.
❑
As a managed module with a Master in a chassis: For the AT-
3624TRS to be managed, it must be included in a department
concentrator with a Master. This is a
managed module
configuration.
