1.5 Hot-Swap Capability
The RTM806X supports Full Hot Swap capability as per PICMG3.0R3.0. It can be removed from or installed in
the system while it is on (without powering-down the system). Please refer to the PICMG3.0R3.0 specification
for additional details.
1.6 Interfacing with the Environment
1.6.1 RTM (rear transition module)
The RTM806X is a single slot (6HP) AdvancedTCA Rear Transition Module. This module provides additional
connectivity for AT8060 CPU front board.
1.6.1.1 SAS Feature
• Compliant to SAS 3G (RTM8063), SAS 6G (RTM8066)
• A JBOD unit can be use as additional external storage. This connection is done through a standard mini-
SAS cable. SAS signal integrity guaranteed over a two meters cable
1.6.1.2 Serial Port Feature
• One (1) serial port available on the RTM face plate through one (1) RJ-45 connector
• RS-232 signals level at RTM face plate connector.
• Serial port speed capability is: 9.6kbits/s to 115.2kbits/s.
1.6.1.3 FRU Data EEPROM
• FRU Data EEPROM size is 4Kbyte and it includes board identification and serial number.
1.6.1.4 Hot Swap
As a Hot Swappable Intelligent Managed FRU, the RTM806X (FRU2) includes a Management Controller, the
AdvancedTCA Hot Swap indicator (Blue LED), and the standard AdvancedTCA handle switch.
Note:
In order to fit two 2.5'' SAS disks, the RTM806X is exceeding the RTM mechanical envelope defined
by ATCA PICMG 3.0 specification, only in HDDs section.
WARNING
All the managements infrastructures are present for hot-swap, but the user must
take the proper action to protect its data under the OS installed on the Front Board
(such as unmount a SAS drive)
