Introducing the GigaVUE-HCT Chassis
The fully-assembled GigaVUE-HCT chassis consists of a 1RU, rack-mountable chassis with management, network, and tool ports at the front and power connections and fans at the rear. Front View of GigaVUE-HCT Chassis summarizes the bay and components at the front, and Rear View of GigaVUE-HCT Chassis summarizes the rear of the GigaVUE-HCT chassis.
Note: The CLI recognizes the MGMT 1 port as eth0, the MGMT 2 port as eth2, and the MGMT 3 port as eth1.

Module Bays |
The base chassis is on the right. Slot (bay) is on the left. |
|
Base Chassis |
The GigaVUE-HCT includes a base chassis that holds the management and processing components installed inside the unit. It is located to the right of the front of the chassis. Note: The base chassis is not hot-swappable. The base chassis also controls the Mgmt port and console port on the front of the node for network and local administrative access to the GigaVUE‑OS command-line interface (CLI). The base chassis provides two QSFP28 ports, each of which can support 40Gb/100Gb or, in breakout mode, 4x10Gb/4x25Gb. The default port speed is 40Gb/100Gb which is denoted by C. Refer to GigaVUE-HCT Base Chassis for more information. |
|
Management Ports |
The MGMT and MGMT 3 ports support remote connections to the GigaVUE‑OS using SSH. MGMT 2 port is used by the GigaSMART module (SMT-HC1-S) to access the external network for downloading certificates. |
|
Console Ports |
Initial configuration is performed in the CLI over the serial RJ45 Console port. Serial Console port accepts terminal connections to configure GigaVUE-HCT settings, including time, network, and SNMP settings. |
|
Reset /Push Button |
Use the reset/ push button to reset the device. It must be pressed continuously for five seconds. |

|
Power Adapter |
The GigaVUE-HCT parts kit contains one power adapter. The power adapter has a 300-watt 12-volt DC rating. Refer to Power Requirements for information on the power characteristics of the GigaVUE-HCT. |
|
Power Inputs |
The GigaVUE-HCT has two power inputs at the rear end of the chassis to provide 1+1 system redundancy. Each power input is used to connect 12V DC input power from the power adapter. |
|
Fan Module |
The fan module installed at the rear of the node provides system cooling. The Fan module is not hot-swappable. |
Hardware Root of Trust (HRoT)
The Hardware Root of Trust is intended to establish the root of trust in the system through a secure micro-controller highly resistant to attacks. It provides the most robust form of IP security, with multiple levels of crucial verification during power-on.
To configure the HRoT solution. Refer to the GigaVUE-OS CLI Reference Guide.
