6. Optional System Configurations
6.1 Power Supply Options
The design of this backplane allows for several different power supply options:
1. The default configuration of a single compatible pluggable power supply.
2. Addition of compatible pluggable power supplies installed either to the left or right of the
backplane.
Option 1 is the standard configuration which requires the integration of a single CP-ADAP-P47-
PB (3U or 6U) power bar adapter.
Option 2 can be achieved through the use of power bar adapter boards which can be mounted
either to the left or right of the backplane. These boards which accommodate pluggable power
supplies are connected to the backplane terminals through the use of power bars. In addition,
the system monitor and control signals can be extended via JP11 or JP12 to the power supply
adapter boards using appropriate cabling. This configuration allows for additional power sup-
plies to be added which satisfy system requirements such as redundancy, power sharing, or
simply increasing available power.
6.2 System Addon Options
The CP3-BP2-PB-RIO backplane is designed to allow the installation of backplane(s) to the left
or right of it in a sub-rack and at the same time maintaining the slot raster. This feature makes
it possible to add (an) additional backplane(s) using appropriate hardware for accommodating
multiple system configurations in one sub-rack.
Note...
The signal pinout assignment is a function of the power supply actually utilized
with this backplane. Refer to the corresponding power supply documentation for
the applicable signal pinout.
