VME6U HARDWARE REFERENCE
As a repeater, each Quad Switch port converts optical signals to electrical signals. These
signals are re-synchronized and re-transmitted. This allows each connection to the Quad
Switch to be the maximum length for the type of media selected.
The Quad Switch can also perform media conversion. Since each port has a Media Card
just like a SCRAMNet node, each port can be configured to handle coax, standard link or
long-link fiber. This allows a signal to arrive on one media type, and go out on another.

Figure 3-2 Node Inclusion and Isolation
Visually, LED’s signify the state of node inclusion in the ring and if carrier is detected. If
carrier is not detected, the port is put into Isolate state and the port is bypassed thereby
retaining ring integrity. The auxiliary connector and the associated control cable links the
port to the node to allow the application running the node to switch the Quad Switch in
and out of Include or Isolate state. A manual Include/Isolate switch is used to guarantee
that a node is isolated or that it can be included. A serial-port interface is used to send
message packets to the Quad Switch to perform control function or to obtain switch status
remotely via the RS-232 or RS-422/485 connection. Two mechanical rotary switches set
the serial interface address.
3.8.3 Cabinet Kit
The Cabinet Kit for the SCRAMNet
+
Network permits adapting the node to the host
cabinet while still maintaining the shielding of the chassis. Access to the node’s
connections, and cable integrity is exterior to the cabinet. This eliminates the need to
remove the node board, once proper installation has been accomplished.
Cabinet kits are available for a variety of vendor chassis, and include the Compact and
the Extended models. The Compact Cabinet Kit is described in Appendix D, and in detail
in the
SCRAMNet Network Cabinet Kit Hardware Reference
