Connecting two CRS-4 over 110Km lenght dark-fiber

I wonder if I want connect two CRS-4 over 110Km lenght and get 40G of througput whitout ONS 15454 MSTP DWDM infrastructure.
I am looking for lowering the cost for a two cities point-to-point carrier class connection with high throughput.
TIA

Thank you for the reply.
As long as I can understand for it, it is possible to interconnect two CRS-4 by mean a dark-fiber without a DWDM transport system, if the distance and fiber parameters limits are meeted.
In the 1-Port OC-768C/STM-256C Tunable WDMPOS datasheet I can read that the targeted distance is 1000km for DWDM Line Interface, and 80 or 100Km for Single-channel optical link (without DWDM).
This would mean that a DWDM platform is needed to get the 1000km length?
What about the throughput when it is connected in single-chanel mode?

  • Connect two pc's over a lan using labview

    Hi,
    I am trying to connect two pc's over a LAN using ethernet. Both pc's are connected to the LAN and I can ping each one from the other but I cannot get commseither using the visa vi's in labview or  through MAX. In MAX I right clIck 'devices and interfaces' and select create new ->VISA TCP/IP Resource. A dialogue box appears and I select raw socket then click next. I put in the ip address. It looks for a port which I don't know I have tried a few numbers. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks,
    Steven

    Why don't you just use the TCP functions? There's several shipping examples. I suppose you could write client/server programs with VISA functions but I don't know of any examples of these. You might as well start with something that already exists and modify it for your needs.
    I'm not sure MAX will detect just a pc resource unless you start VISA Server on the remote pc.

  • Connecting two SRW2048 switches over multimode fiber

    I've bought several SRW2048 switches to upgrade our old 10/100 switches, but I can't get them to connect over my multimode fiber.  I bought some MGBSX1 SFP GBICs and LC-ST fiber cables to connect to the fiber runs, but the two won't talk to each other... any ideas?  I'm pretty sure I have the ST connectors set up right... on one switch it goes red/black (Tx/Rx) and on the other end it's black/red (Rx/Tx).  This is my first time trying to upgrade fiber equipment so my vocab may not be exact... any help would be GREATLY appreciated...
    Kevin

    Sorry, I'm just now getting back to this issue...  I turned off the auto-negotiated speeds on the ports connecting miniGBIC to miniGBIC, but I'm still getting broadcast storms on the network and I think it's slowing things down...  All I did was plug in all the switches and make the auto-negotiated speed change... 
    I don't know anything about VLANs and port trunks... I didn't change any of those settings... Could that be part of the problem?  I have 7 SRW2048s connecting to each other in a cascade(?) and could the fact that they're all on the default VLAN1 without any changes to the trunking be the issue?

  • Connecting two AR5000 receivers on same sound card and stream over net

    Hi guys,
    I am able to connect one AR 5000 receiver to a sound card , remote control it over the network, stream audio and play from it.
    Now I want to connect two receivers on a single sound card and do the rest as mentioned above
    Help!!

    Thanks Linc Davis. I thought I'd have to pay for the consultation at the Genius Bar, but you're quite right, it is free and you can decide not to go ahead if the quote they give is too much. Just thought I'd write what happened in case anyone else has the same problem. The cause was basically a small cable that needed to be repaired, which cost about 76 euros. I took it to an Apple Store in Paris and they fixed it within 24 hours, even though they estimated 3-5 days. He said another reason this problem might be occurring is because the Logic Board needs to be replaced which would have cost around 360 euros (probably not worth the money for a 3.5 year old laptop), but thankfully it was just the cable.

  • Extending SAN&LAN over dark fiber (DWDM)?

    Hi, sorry for my English, but I hope you understand me, and I understand your answers:)
    We are in the process of adding new data center (DC2), which will be geographically located about 20 km from our existing data center (DC1). Between them laid dark fiber (two fibers). We need a solution for the LAN(layer 2) and SAN(native FC) extension ...
    Solution is to see me use two passive EWDM-MUX8 at both ends of dark fiber with DWDM transceivers on the equipment in the DC1 & DC2.
    For Ethernet, we propose to use Cisco 10GBASE DWDM X2 Modules (p/n:DWDM-X2-xx.xx =) - equipment at both ends supports these modules.
    For FC we propose to use DWDM SFP Modules for Cisco ONS Family (p/n:ONS-SC-4G-xx.x =).
    SAN equipment at both ends - Cisco MDS 9124 (p/n:DS-C9124AP-K9).
    But I'm not entirely sure of the correctness of this decision, especially in SAN extension.
    Is this workable solution?
    Does the Cisco MDS 9124 supports this transceivers (ONS-SC-4G-xx.x=)?
    There are other potential pitfalls are not visible to me?
    In advance, thanks for the advice.

    For ethernet, your decision is correct.
    For SAN, things get a little dicey. The MDS 9124 doesn't support the ONS transcievers, and the FC 4G LH transciever is limited in distance to about 10 km.
    If it were me, I would do things a little differently. I would put a Nexus 5000 series at each end of your dark fiber, with a 20 GB etherchannel trunk between them. Each nexus would then be connected to your data center ethernet network via 10 gig ethernet, and to your MDS's via 2/4/8 gig FC. The nexus could then be set up such that FC traffic destined for the other end will be encapsulated in ethernet, sent over the link, unencapsulated at the other end, and sent to the appropriate FC host.
    It's relatively easy, simple to operate, and no mucking around with DWDM/CWDM, which can be a very complex animal.

  • Not able to connect remote oracle database over VPN

    I can not connect remote oracle database over VPN. tnsping is ok and it shows the server information of remote database. i can also telnet the 1521 port of remote database server. I can connect the same server when it is located in the same LAN. Please help me out this is very urgent.

    First, this is a forum of volunteers.  There is no "urgent" here.
    "Urgent" means one of two things -
    1) people are dying, or
    2) you have a customer-facing, revenue-producing production system that is down.
    (And to get some perspective on the second case, keep the first in mind.)
    For the first, you call whatever civil emergency service seems appropriate.
    For the second, you open an SR with Oracle - which requires a paid-up support contract. For *them* to consider your problem "urgent", you will need to demonstrate that your problem falls under item #2. I seriously doubt your problem fits that criteria.
    You don't have a support contract?  Now you know the exact dollar figure that your company places on the data.
    That said, you need to understand a few things about your specific problem,
    First, port 1521 is only used by the listener to accept a connection request.  Once it gets that request (and finds that it is for a service (sid) that it knows about, it will fork a server process and tell the requesting client that it can communicate with that server process over some other port .. a randomly chosen port number in the "high" range.  It could be your vpn is blocking that other port, whereas your internal firewall is not.
    But this is just an educated guess since I cannot find "can not connect remote oracle database over VPN" in any error message manual. If you had mentioned the VPN along with an actual oracle error message we could be much more precise in our diagnoses and recommendations.
    ---- edit 22 Sep
    It occurred to me that I just assumed you were using the same client machine in both cases ... a laptop that you use both at work (local network) and home (vpn).  If that assumption is false, there are probably problems with your tns setup on the home (vpn) machine.
    But again, it would be much easier to help if you gave us an actual error message.

  • Is it possible to directly connect two Xserves with a Promise VTrak E610fD via Fibre?

    I have two Xserves and I'd like to connect them with a Promise VTrak E610fD. As this storage has two controllers, I'd like to connect both Xserve with both controllers. Is this setup possible? Can I access (read and write) the same disk array with both Xserves simultaneously (Xsan?) or do I have to create two separate arrays?

    Hello bleistift, and welcome to the AppleBoards,
    Fibre channel is SCSI which means that any device connected by fibre assumes it is in sole control of that device. When you attach more than one machine via fibre both machines assume they are in control and unexpected behaviors and data corruption ensues. SAN (like Apple's XSAN) provides a layer of arbitration over the shares allowing multiple fibre connections to play nicely with one another while still being connected over fibre.
    You could easily connect two machines to a single RAID box if they are accessing different RAID volumes at the same time, but once you start connecting to the same data at the same time you need SAN.

  • How do I connect two apple compuiters

    I would like to connect two apple computers together - how can I do it.

    And take 4x longer if not worse? and WHY and what is this for?
    Want to make one client and the other the server? Heck, how about old Fibre interconnect? can't go out and buy an XRAID box but that would.
    Do you want to use XSAN?
    Xsan is a powerful and scalable solution for storage consolidation. Now everyone in your organization can have fast, concurrent access to terabytes of centralized data. Built into OS X, Xsan allows any Mac with a Thunderbolt to Fibre Channel adapter to access an Xsan volume. OS X Server includes the Xsan Admin application for hosting and configuring Xsan volumes.
    http://www.apple.com/osx/server/features/
    Xsan is Apple Inc.'s storage area network (SAN) or clustered file system for Mac OS X. Xsan enables multiple Mac desktop and Xserve systems to access shared block storage over a Fibre Channel network. With the Xsan file system installed, these computers can read and write to the same storage volume at the same time. Xsan is a complete SAN solution that includes the metadata controller software, the file system client software, and integrated setup, management and monitoring tools.
    Xsan has all the normal features to be expected in an enterprise shared disk file system, including support for large files and file systems, multiple mounted file systems, meta data controller failover for fault tolerance, support for multiple operating systems, etc.
    Interoperability
    Xsan is based on the StorNext File System.[2] The StorNext File System and the Xsan file system share the same file system layout and the same protocol when talking to the meta data server. They also seem to share a common code base or very close development based on the new features developed for both file systems.
    The Xsan website claims complete interoperability[3] with the Quantum Corporation StorNext File System: "And because Xsan is completely interoperable with Quantum’s StorNext File System, you can even provide clients on Windows, Linux, and other UNIX platforms with direct Fibre Channel block-level access to the data in your Xsan-managed storage pool."[4]
    Quantum Corporation claims "Complete interoperability with Apple’s Xsan and Promise RAID and Allows Xsan and Xserve RAID to support AIX, HP-UX, IRIX, Red Hat Linux, SuSE Linux, Mac OS X, Solaris, and Windows clients, including support for 64 Bit Windows and Windows Vista."[5]

  • Connecting two printers one IMAC

    Is it possible to connect two printers to an IMac ?
    One is a HP printer,fax,scanner and the other ia a canon printer only.
    Currently, the Canon is connected via USB, and working fine, and I can print from my laptop over my wireless network.
    What would happen if I plug in the HP in another USB port, will it conflict ? or just switch back and forth depending on which printer I want to use, even over the wireless network.
    Thanks

  • Networking Best Practices - Connecting Two Switches

    Connecting two switches together is an easy task, which makes it so frustrating when it doesn’t work. Here we will outline a basic scenario of connecting two switches and achieving connectivity. In these scenarios we will be using commands and settings that will work for most modern PowerConnect switches. However this does not cover all possible scenarios and the commands may differ slightly from switch to switch.
    For instance, in most cases you can use General or Trunk mode when connecting two switches. However, on the PowerConnect 62xx series switches, you must use General mode if you want to allow management traffic onto the switch over the PVID.  If you use Trunk mode, you will not have the default VLAN on those ports.  The ports will only allow tagged traffic.
    For more details on the difference between Access, General, and Trunk modes, follow this link.
    http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/network-switches/f/866/p/19445142/20089157.aspx#20089157
    It is always a good idea to have the user and CLI guide for your switch, to reference any possible changes in command syntax.

    Layer 2
    Layer 2 switches operate at the data link layer of the OSI model. Layer 2 is responsible for error checking and transmitting data across the physical media. MAC addressing sources and destination protocols are layer 2 protocols. Layer 2 switches use the MAC address of data packets to determine where those packets should go. It learns the MAC addresses of all devices and creates a segment/forwarding table.
    When a switch receives a frame with a destination address that isn't in its forwarding table, the switch forwards the frame to all other ports. If the destination machine responds to the server, the switch will listen to the reply and learn which port the destination machine is attached to. It then adds that MAC address to the forwarding table.
    The Dell PowerConnect Layer 2 switches have ports that all operate in VLAN 1 by default. If it is acceptable to have all traffic on the same broadcast domain, then you can simply leave the default alone, connect the two switches and traffic will flow.
     If you do not want all traffic on the same broadcast domain, then we need to look at adding additional broadcast domains through the use of VLANs.
     We will use 3 VLANs for the following scenario.
    VLAN 1=Management
    VLAN 2=Client
    VLAN 3=Server
    To create these VLANs we do the following commands (VLAN 1 is already created by default)
    console(config)# vlan database
    console(config-vlan)# VLAN 2
    console(config-vlan)# VLAN 3
    console(config-vlan)# exit
    We can then name the VLANs to help keep things organized.
    console(config)# interface vlan 2
    console(config-vlan)# name Client
    console(config-vlan)# exit
    console(config)# interface vlan 3
    console(config-vlan)# name Server
    console(config-vlan)# exit
    Once we have the VLANs created we can place a device in that VLAN by placing the port it plugs into, in access mode for the specific VLAN.
    So we have a workstation on port e2 we want to be placed in VLAN 2, we would issue the following commands.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e2
    console(config-if)# switchport mode access
    console(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
    console(config-if)# exit
    The next port plugs into a server on port e3 we want on VLAN 3, we would issue these commands.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e3
    console(config-if)# switchport mode access
    console(config-if)# switchport access vlan 3
    console(config-if)# exit
    For the ports connecting the two switches together, we place the ports in trunk mode and specify the native VLAN and allowed VLANs.
    For the port e1 that connect the two switches to each other would be configured like this.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e1
    console(config-if)# switchport mode general
    console(config-if)# switchport general allowed vlan add 2,3 tagged
    console(config-if)# switchport general pvid 1
    console(config-if)# exit
    Once these VLANs and port settings are made on both switches. A server connected to switch A on VLAN 3 should be able to communicate with another Server connected to switch B that is also in VLAN 3.  Without the use of a router the devices in VLAN 3 will not be able to communicate with devices that are outside of their broadcast domain (i.e. VLAN 2 devices could not reach VLAN 3 devices)
    Layer 3 + Layer 2
     Until recently, routers were the only devices capable of layer 3 protocols. Switches capable of routing are now available and in widespread use. In most cases we will connect our layer 2 switches to a Layer 3 capable switch to perform our routing for us.
     On the layer 3 switches we will use the same VLANs and setup that we did with the layer 2 switches.  Then we will add to the configuration.
     We can assign an IP address to each switch with the following command.
    Switch A
    console(config)#ip address 172.16.1.1 255.255.255.0
    Switch B
    console(config)#ip address 172.16.2.1 255.255.255.0
    Then we will enable routing only on Switch A
    console(config)# ip routing
    Switch A we assign an IP address to VLAN 2 and enabling routing on the VLAN.
    console(config)# interface vlan 2
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 172.16.20.1 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    Switch A we assign an IP address to VLAN 3 and enabling routing on the VLAN.
    console(config)# interface vlan 3
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 172.16.30.1 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    On both switch A and switch B we will keep things simple and use interface 1/e1 for the connection between each switch. Setting both switches 1/e1 to general mode, allowing the additional VLAN 2,3, and keeping the PVID of 1.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e1
    console(config-if)# switchport mode general
    console(config-if)# switchport general allowed vlan add 2,3 tagged
    console(config-if)# switchport general pvid 1
    console(config-if)# exit
    We will have one client computer connect to switch A on port 1/e2 and one client connect to switch B on port 1/e2. These ports will be in access mode for VLAN 2, and the config should look like this on both switches.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e2
    console(config-if)# switchport mode access
    console(config-if)# switchport access vlan 2
    console(config-if)# exit
    We will have another client computer connect to switch A on port 1/e3 and one client connect to switch B on port 1/e3. These ports will be in access mode for VLAN 3, and the config should look like this on both switches.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e3
    console(config-if)# switchport mode access
    console(config-if)# switchport access vlan 3
    console(config-if)# exit
    On Clients connected to Switch A we will assign an IP address and gateway based on the VLAN they are in access mode for.
    Client connected to access port for VLAN 2.
    IP Address:172.16.20.11
    Default Gateway:172.16.20.1
    Client connected to access port for VLAN 3.
    IP Address:172.16.30.11
    Default Gateway:172.16.30.1
    On Clients connected to Switch B we will assign an IP address and gateway based on the VLAN they are in access mode for.
    Client connected to access port for VLAN 2.
    IP Address:172.16.20.12
    Default Gateway:172.16.20.1
    Client connected to access port for VLAN 3.
    IP Address:172.16.30.12
    Default Gateway:172.16.30.1
    External Connection
    At some point we may want traffic to have an external connection. To do this we can create a new VLAN for our point to point connection from Switch A to our router. We will use VLAN 7 for this and assign an IP address.
    console(config)# vlan database
    console(config-vlan)# VLAN 7
    console(config-vlan)# exit
    console(config)# interface vlan 7
    console(config-vlan)# name WAN
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 10.10.10.2 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    On our router we will assign an IP address of 10.10.10.1
    Then place the port connecting the switch and router into access mode for VLAN 7.  In this case we use port e4.
     console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e4
    console(config-if)# switchport mode access
    console(config-if)# switchport access vlan 7
    console(config-if)# exit
    We will then need to put in a default route with the next hop as the router IP address.  This allows the switch to know where to route traffic not destined for VLANs 2, 3, or 7.
    console(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.10.1
    Next on the router we’ll need to add a route back so the router knows about the networks attached to switch A.  Generally adding a static route on most routers is done with the following command: 
    ip route {Network} {Wildcard Mask} {Next Hop-IP}
    In our case here are the 2 static routes we could use.
    Ip route 172.16.20.0 0.0.0.255 10.10.10.2
    Ip route 172.16.30.0 0.0.0.255 10.10.10.2
    The routing that we enabled on Switch A will enable traffic from the other VLANs to traverse over port 1/e4 to the router, connecting us to external traffic. The routes we added to the router allow the traffic to flow back to the switch over port 1/e4.
    Layer 3 + Layer 3
    In some situations we have two switches, each setup to route for its own broadcast domain, which we want to connect together. In this situation we no longer have a need to use Trunk or General mode between the switches. Instead we can create a common VLAN that will be used for the connection between the two switches.
    To create this VLAN we will run the following commands on both switch A and B
    console(config)# vlan database
    console(config-vlan)# vlan 6
    console(config-vlan)# exit
    console(config)# interface vlan 6
    console(config-vlan)# name Connection
    console(config-vlan)# exit
    On switch A we assign an IP address to VLAN 6 and enable routing on the VLAN.
    console(config)# interface vlan 6
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 172.16.60.1 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    On switch B we assign an IP address to VLAN 6 and enable routing on the VLAN.
    console(config)# interface vlan 6
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 172.16.60.2 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    On both switch A and B we place the connecting ports into Access mode for VLAN 6.
    console(config)# interface ethernet 1/e1
    console(config-if)# switchport mode access
    console(config-if)# switchport access vlan 6
    console(config-if)# exit
    We then need to make some changes to switch B now that it is layer 3 and not layer 2 and has its own broadcast domain.
    We will enable routing on Switch B
    console(config)# ip routing
    What used to be VLAN 2 and 3 will now be VLAN 4 and 5 for our separate broadcast domains.
    Switch B we assign an IP address to VLAN 4 and enabling routing on the VLAN.
    console(config)# interface vlan 4
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 172.16.40.1 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    Switch B we assign an IP address to VLAN 5 and enabling routing on the VLAN.
    console(config)# interface vlan 5
    console(config-if-vlan2)# Routing
    console(config-if-vlan2)# ip address 172.16.50.1 255.255.255.0
    console(config-if-vlan2)# exit
    On Clients connected to Switch B we will assign an IP address and gateway based on the VLAN they are in access mode for.
    Client connected to access port for VLAN 4.
    IP Address:172.16.40.11
    Default Gateway:172.16.40.1
    Client connected to access port for VLAN 5.
    IP Address:172.16.50.11
    Default Gateway:172.16.50.1
    The end result should look like this.
     Troubleshooting
    If we are having issues with connectivity, we may need to place some static routes in place to help traffic to the next hop in the network.
    On switch A we configure a static route to help traffic to the next hop in the network, which is the router.
    console(config)# ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.10.10.1
    The external router will also need a path defined back to all networks/VLANs.
    To check the status of a port we can use the command. Show interfaces detail, this will help us see the port status. For example to check the status of port 48, we would run this command.
    console# show interfaces detail ethernet 1/g48
     To check routing paths:
    console# show ip route
    The IP address of the network for each VLAN should be listed as C – Connected. Then also a path or default route to your upstream router.
    We can use basic ping commands from a client to help test where connectivity is dropping off at. By doing this we can narrow down where in the network to start troubleshooting.
    -Ping from client to default gateway, being the VLAN the client is in access mode for. If this fails then we may need to double check our client settings making sure the proper IP and gateway are being used.
    -Ping from client to the ip address of the switch the client plugs into. If this fails we may not have VLAN routing enabled on the VLAN the client is in.
    -Ping from client to another client on same VLAN, same switch. If this fails we need to check on client settings, IP address and gateway.
    -ping from client to another client on different VLAN, same switch. If this fails we need to double check the VLAN routing commands are in place.
    -ping from client to the ip address of the next switch in the network. If this fails then check Trunk port configuration from switch to switch, ensuring the VLAN is added to the Trunk port.
    -ping from client to another client on same VLAN, different switch. If this fails, check Trunk port settings.
    -ping from client to another client on different VLAN, different switch. If this fails then check trunk settings and VLAN routing configuration.

    Derek,
    I tried to draw my prefered setup for this network configuration.
    I would create a Team with the two 1 GBit NICs and use it for Domain, DNS, Backup and any SystemCenter Agents.
    I would also Team the two 10 GBit NICs and than assign it to a Hyper-V Switch for the VMs. In Windows Server 2012 it is posible to create vNICs for the Management OS that use this Hyper-V Switch (Converged Network Design). I would create two vNICs SMB1
    and SMB2 to use them for Cluster and Livemigration traffic with SMB Multichannel. If your storage system supports SMB Multichannel you can also use both as storage NICs (but this depends wich vendor you have).
    Hope this helps.

  • Line connecting two bars of a floating bar chart

    Hi All,
    I am using floating bar chart for one of my functionality showing flows over time...
    I need to draw one dashed line connecting two bars ..
    Attaching the image for reference ..
    Pls guide me how shd I achieve this ...
    Thanks

    Morning Art,
    I hope you had a good weekend.
    Yes! I know what you mean because I have the same issue. If for example there is one record out of 10 records, the chart fills the whole width of the page with blue rectangle within the chart, and showing 1 on the x-axis (one big blob of blue colour within a chart).
    It looks very bad though I didn't find any solution to the problem either. however if I do, I will let you know.

  • Connecting Two Power Supplies in one PC

    Hello there  :hypecrite:
    Will someone help me on how to connect two Switching P/S in one PC (If it's possible)?
    I tried using two P/S in my old PC and it's working just fine. However, the problem is that I cannot switch them on simultaneously because the one is connected directly to the motherboard and the other, I just used a simple switch to turn it on.
    Also, please check my P/S for this PC if it's OK.
    Thank you and more POWER!!!

    Hello again :hypecrite:
    Thank you for your support guyz.  I would like to tell you that you are all correct.
    I think it's time for me to stop fooling aroung, experimenting things, too.  And to trust the verdors instead.  I looked for the psu brands that you all mentioned and it turned out my pockets could still handle such a cost, eventhough it costs twice as much as the psu that I have right now, but as long as it's dependable.
    And about the problem with my CPU's temperature that I posted last November 12, 2004 (MSI KT4A-V with S/PDIF out and Core center), AMD support center finally replied to me and told me that my temp is OK but not to go above 70C.
    Below is my inquiry to AMD and their reply:
    My inquiry:
    Dear Sir:
       I would like to ask what is the NORMAL operating temperature of Athlon XP 2400+ FSB 266 model 8?  
       When my PC is at idle, my CPU temp reading is 60C and during full load, it reaches to about 66C. It doesn't have any problems though (such as random reboot) but I'm a bit concerned of the temperature reading.  Some people say that it's a bit TOO HOT  for comfort. Still others say that it is OK.  What do you think?
      I have read your post on MAXIMUM operating temperatures of Athlon XPs but not the recommended NORMAL operating temperatures.
      And also when I turn  the BIOS CPU core voltage to AUTO mode the default is 1.575V. My friends said the minimal operating voltage of 2400+ is 1.650V. Is it OK to just leave it to default?
    Thank you very much

    Dear Guillem,
    Thank you for contacting Asian and Pacific AMD Technical Support Centre.
    I can confirm that the temperatures ranges from 40° - 55° C  in moderate usage and with a higher workload around 65° C, but never over 70° C.
    What the correct voltage is concerned there are three models of the Athlon XP 2400+. If you have the CPU with the OPN AXDA2400DUV3C the
    voltage should be 1.60V otherwise it is 1.65V.
    It seems your system would overheat dangerously when set to the right voltage. I would suggest, you do check if the heatsink /fan is installed
    properly.
    You may find a different reading after upgrading your BIOS.
    * Please make sure to download the right BIOS version for your motherboard.
    Then, please, make sure that your processor Athlon XP 2400+ is configured in BIOS as follows:
    -          FSB speed to 133MHz (It is a bidirecctional bus, the full speed would be 266)
    -          CPU multiplier of 15x
    -          CPU voltage of 1.65V (1.60V if OPN = AXDA2400DUV3C)
    With these settings the clock frequency of the processor should be 2000 MHz.
    And finally you can test the CPU on another system to establish if the processor or the motherboard is responsible for the problem . If no other system is
    available to you then ask your retailer/reseller to test it for you.
    Given the case that the processor is faulty, we inform you that the PIB processors (box processors) have 3 years warranty, whilst OEM processors (tray processors) have only one year. In both cases the first year is given by the reseller and the PIB processors second and third years are served directly by AMD.
    If you have any further questions, please, do not hesitate to contact us again.
    Kind regards,

    Yesterday, I increased the CPU voltage to 1.60V (from the default of 1.575) and my temp reading was reduced to 50C at idle (from an idle of 60C) and at full load to 60C (from a full load of 66C).  I was not expecting this though.  I was expecting that my CPU's temp will increase further.  But this is what happened. I guess the RIGHT THING should be the RIGHT THING.
    Tomorrow, I will buy a new psu with the brands that you mentioned and I hope that my PC's stability and performance will increase further.
    Again thank you very much for your support and all.

  • Is possible to connect two i-phone4 with bluetooth?

    Is possible to connect two i-phone4 with bluetooth?

    For what reason.  Some apps were made to interact with another iPhone with the same app running over bluetooth.
    All info is in the manual if you mean for other reasons.

  • My ATV gen 2 won't connect to the internet over a wireless BT home hub 5 network

    My ATV gen 2 won't connect to the internet over a wireless BT home hub 5 network. I've recently upgraded to a BT HH5 and now I cannot airplay with my 2011-MBP, and the ATV will not connect to the iTunes store or software update.

    Ok, thanks (not sure I know what you mean!). I have seen a solution that tells me to rename the two SSID's? Is that what you mean? All my devices are wireless, and all can connect to the internet except the Apple TV. Now I have disabled the 5GHz channel all devices are on the 2.4GHz channel and all work fine, including the Apple TV and airplay between my MBP and ATV.

  • Connect two floating text boxes in Pages so the text continues

    Hi,
    I'd like to connect two floating text boxes in Pages 5.0 so text continues beetween them. I'm sure that in Pages '08 this function was implemented, is there some way to do this on the new version? Thanks!!

    No, feature removed allong with over 90 others:
    http://www.freeforum101.com/iworktipsntrick/viewforum.php?f=22&mforum=iworktipsn trick
    Pages '08 or Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
    Trash/archive Pages 5 and rate & review it in the App Store.
