The JumboSwitch network architecture is based on 4 major system components: The Gigabit Ethernet Fiber Optic Backbone - on which all information from the JumboSwitch equipment connected to the fiber backbone is multiplexed. The JumboSwitch Nodes - which form the access points to the network. The Interface Cards - on the JumboSwitch, provide the connectivity of T1/E1, RS-232/RS485, Analog Telephones, Ethernet (fiber or copper) to the network. The JumboSwitch Management System (JMS) - for central network management. The JumboSwitch supports the following types of optical fibers: 50/125 ”m and 62.5/125 ”m multimode fiber; Operating at 850nm 9/125 ”m single-mode fiber, Operating at 1300nm or 1550nm 9/125”m WDM, single-mode, single-core fiber, Operating at 1300nm and 1550nm. Each JumboSwitch is mounted in a 19" rack and is equipped with Main and Management cards, interface cards and one or more power supply modules. The Main card is a Gigabit Ethernet central fabric. Its main function is to provide communication between the Gigabit Ethernet optical backbone, the backplane of JumboSwitch card cage, and all interface cards housed in the same cage. Two types of card cages can be used for the JumboSwitch. For the 4U X 19" card cage, a maximum of 7 Interface cards can be housed together. For the smaller 2U X 19" card cage, 2 interface cards can be allotted. Specially designed for industrial applications, the JumboSwitch is a fully managed Gigabit switch with optional wide operating temperature range between -40șC to +80șC, fast self-healing or path-recovery capability, extensive remote management functions, and hot-swappable interface cards. Interface Cards There is a JumboSwitch Interface Card for most popular communication interfaces including T1/E1, Telephones, Serial, Turbo Serial, Ethernet, and GigaE ports. These interface cards provide for smooth connectivity and seamless conversion to IP packets for transporting onto the Gigabit Ethernet backbone. For data applications: RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, T1 & E1. Topologies include Point-to-Point, Point-to-Multi-Point, and Self Healing Multi-Drop Ring or Bus. The Turbo Serial card is designed for real time critical communication between protective relays with a maximum signal latency of less than 10ms. For voice applications: 2-Wire VoIP FXS and FXO cards. FXS is used to connect directly with analog telephones and FXO is used to connect with PABXs. Refer to the Data Sheet Section for different combinations. For Ethernet connections: There are auto-negotiating Fast Ethernet (10/100Mbps) and GigaE (10/100/1000Mbps) cards with different media types and optical power selections. All Interface Cards are designed with harsh working environments in mind. Industrial hardened designs include the use of industrial grade components, sturdy product construction, no fans or moving parts, and plug-and-play friendliness. All Interface Cards are capable of hot swapping on line, without disturbing the real time traffic on the backbone. All JumboSwitch cards are capable of software downloads to simplify the procedures involved when performing version upgrades. JumboSwitch Management System (JMS) The JumboSwitch Management System runs on a Window based PC. It provides the operator with a clear picture of the status of the network and the connected interface cards. Many management functions can be performed through the JMS, e.g. IP address management, connectionless topology design and provisioning, software download, service provisioning, re-booting of interface cards, etc. The JumboSwitch network does not require the presence of the JMS to operate. Physical properties of any card on the network, e.g. ambient temperature, part number, serial number, software/firmware version, etc. can be collected and monitored through the JumboSwitch Management System located at the Central Control. The JMS provides a simple and effective way to centralize management of the network.
