ix CAUTION: Never place your hand inside an empty card or module bay. You should never have cause to place a hand anywhere inside the Topspin chassis. Unused card and module bays should always have a Topspin cover over the bay to ensure proper safety, ventilation, and cooling. General Cautions CAUTION: No user is authorized to remove the Topspin system enclosure cover. The internal chassis contains no user-serviceable components. Removing the enclosure cover voids your warranty. See the war

11 1 Features Overview The Topspin 270 Switched Computing System provides data center managers with a high-performance, low-latency interconnect. • “System Architecture” on page 11. • “About the Topspin 270 Chassis” on page 13. • “Administrative Features” on page 20. System Architecture Hot Standby On the Topspin 270, the inactive controller card remains on hot standby so that it can assume control in the event that the active controller card fails over. The hot standby feature lets the Serve

13 Fabric For redundancy, InfiniBand Host Channel Adapters (HCAs) can be dual-connected to a redundant pair of Topspin 270s. In an InfiniBand fabric that includes more than one Topspin 270: if the subnet manager on the Topspin 270 that is acting as the master fails, another subnet manager will take over within seconds. All necessary state information is kept in sync. Non-Blocking Architecture The Topspin 270 provides non-blocking switch element architecture with full bi-directional bandwidth

17 • The power supplies are 1U, 48V, 1200W • The supplies provide regulated +48V DC to all other modules in the system. • Each power supply has self contained fans for cooling. Fan Trays Refer to “Installing a Fan Module” on page 41 for installation instructions. The fan trays are redundant, hot-swappable cooling units. • Only one fan tray, in either of the two slots, is required to cool the system. However, a blanking panel is required for any unused bay. • The replacement of any one fan

18 Understanding the Core Slot to Mgmt Interface Module Connection Each Core slot in the chassis (refer to “The Core Slot” on page 18) is connected to 1 port on the Management Interface module. The controller (fabric interface module inserted in the core slot) selects the Management Interface module to which it will connect. The pairing of Management Interface module to core slot is as follows: • The Management Interface module in slot #15 is connected to the Fabric Controller Module in the
