Backplane box
4U, 8 slot | MIC-3001
ADVANTECH
The 3U size 8, 14-slot backplane of the MIC-3001 series supports 32-bit operation. The backplane complies with the PICMG 2.1 Hot-Swap Specification, and you can build easy-tomaintainsystems with hot-swappable CompactPCI boards and software.
A 1U-high fan module provides forced cooling air into the system. Two 113-CFM high-speed fans are mounted in a hot-swap tray directly underneath the card slots. The fan'stachometer output enables the alarm module to monitor the speed of the fans, and a protective circuit has been designed into the fan backplane to reduce spikes and noise duringhot-swapping. This design allows replacement of fans without turning the system off.
