Chapter 4: System Modules
4-2 Double-Wide Modules
Most modules in the SuperBlade fit into single-wide bays. The InfiniBand module and
some other modules however (such as the 10GbE Pass-through module), require a
double-wide bay and can only be installed in such a bay created by combining the two
right most bays. The enclosure's module bays are designed to be easily modified from
single to double-wide by following the procedure below.
Modifying an Enclosure’s Module Bays for Double-wide Modules
1. Remove the four screws that secure the inner enclosure to the main enclosure.
Slide the inner enclosure outward, depressing the locking tabs on both sides to pull
it completely out.
2. Remove any single-wide modules that are occupying the bays you wish to modify to
a double-wide bay.
3. In the module bay you wish to expand to double wide, remove the two screws that
secure the center support to the inner enclosure then take out the center support.
See
Figure 4-9 , Step 1 for details.
4. Remove the two screws from the underside of each of the two horizontal spacers
(as shown in
Figure 4-8 ). See Figure 4-9 , Step 2 for details.
5. Using four screws, install the long horizontal spacer to the same space where the
two short spacers were removed. See
Figure 4-10 , Step 3 for details.
6. You can now install a double-wide module into the bay. See Figure 4-10 , Step 4 for
details.
NOTE: This procedure describes modifying two right most single-wide bays
located at the top of the inner enclosure. The same procedure applies to the two
right most single bays located at the bottom of the enclosure, but note that the
horizontal spacers in the bottom bays use a guide pin and are not
interchangeable with the upper bay spacers (see
Figure 4-8 for details).
Modules in the upper bays will have their release handles on the bottom, while
modules in the lower bays will have their release handles on the top.
Placing modules in an “upside-down” orientation in the upper-left corner (only)
does not affect their operation.
NOTE: Only one double-wide module can be installed in an enclosure since
each enclosure requires at least one CMM module. The bottom location is
recommended.
If using the AOC-IBH-002 single-port InfiniBand mezzanine card, the InfiniBand
switch
MUST be installed in the bottom location.
