ATTO Technology Inc. iPBridge Installation and Operation Manual
1.1 ATTO iPBridge 1500E
The ATTO iPBridge 1500E is a 1-Gigabit Ethernet to SCSI embeddable bridge for midrange
performance, cost effective solutions in SMB/SME environments.
The iPBridge 1500E includes a single Ethernet
port which may be used for either data transfer or
configuration, a serial management port and a
SCSI port.
Dimensions
Length: 6.4 inches
Width: 4.4 inches
Height of the tallest component: .536 inches
Environment
Operating Temperature: 5-40° C external
Ambient air should not exceed 40°C.
Humidity: 10-90% non-condensing
Recommended airflow: 11 cubic feet per minute
Power
The iP1500E board may be powered from a 4-pin
connector.
Input voltage: 12V DC ±10% derived from a 4-
pin connection.
Power draw: 12V, 1.7 amps
Reset switch
A manual reset switch is mounted on the board
near the serial port.
SCSI port
The SCSI port on the iPBridge 1500E connects
storage devices into the Storage Area Network
(SAN). The port is an Ultra 3 LVD/SE SCSI bus
with 68-pin “P” interface: 160 MB/sec. maximum
throughput, downward compatible with all forms
of single-ended SCSI.
The iPBridge supports SCSI devices including
hard disk drives, tape drives RAID controllers,
DVD, MO and CD libraries.
Ethernet port
The 10/100/1000 GbE RJ45 Ethernet port uses the
Intel 8254x family gigabit Ethernet to support
Telnet-based data transfer and management
through a an ASCII-based command line
interface or ATTO ExpressNAV, a browser-based
interface.
GbE cables must be at least CAT-5E certified for
1000 Mb/sec. use.
Serial port
The RS-232 serial port provides support for
remote monitoring and management through a
command line interface. It is set at the factory at
115,200 bps.
LED indicators
Activity: A green LED in the middle of the
iPBridge blinks to show the unit is ready and to
identify the iPBridge when the CLI command
IdentifyBridge is enabled. It goes dark when there is
SCSI activity.
SCSI Activity: the SCSI bus has an LED which is
lit when the iPBridge is ready and goes dark when
there is SCSI activity.
