To configure cards and ports, you must be able to access the 7705 SAR-8 by console or
Telnet connection. Refer to the 7705 SAR-8 Installation Guide for information and
instructions on console and Telnet connections.

The CSM does not require provisioning. However, the IOM, which is an integral part of the
CSM software module, must be activated before any adapter cards and port parameters can
be provisioned and configured. The IOM is activated using the card and card-type CLI
commands to specify its slot number and card type. Adapter cards must be provisioned
before their ports can be configured.

Notes:

• IOMs are specified using the card and card-type commands (items 1 and 2 in the list
below).
• Adapter cards are provisioned and configured using the mda and mda-type commands
(items 3 and 4 in the list below).

Configure components in the following order:

1. Card slot number (use the card command)

2. Card type
3. Adapter card slot number (use the mda command)
4. Adapter card type
5. Ports

Installation Procedures

Warnings and Notes

Warnings:
• Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if adapter cards are mishandled. Always
wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap connected to a nearby ground point that is
connected to the site grounding point (typically, the grounding stud on the 7705 SAR-8, or
a properly grounded rack or work bench).
• Always place components on an anti-static surface.
• Do not power up a 7705 SAR-8 before verifying that all common equipment (chassis,
power, cooling, and grounding) is connected properly and that the fan module and all cards
in the chassis have the same voltage type.
• Filler plates are required in all empty slots to prevent excess dust accumulation and to help
control airflow and electromagnetic interference.
• To comply with the GR-1089-CORE requirement R4-9 [31] standard for electromagnetic
compatibility and safety, all intra-building ports are specified for use with shielded and
grounded cables at both ends.
• The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or sub-assembly is suitable for connection to
intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the
equipment or sub-assembly must not be metallically connected to interfaces that connect
to the Outside Plant (OSP) or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-
building interfaces only (Type 2 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE) and require
isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is not sufficient
protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

Notes:

• Ports cannot be configured until the adapter card is provisioned.

• Services cannot be configured until the ports are configured.
• Adapter card slot numbers are MDA 1 through MDA 6.
• T1/DS1 terminations support 100-ohm impedance; E1 terminations support 75-ohm and
120-ohm termination impedances.

68-pin AMP to Open-ended Wire T1/E1 Cable —

Pinout Assignments
Figure 6 shows the 68-pin AMP to open-ended wire T1/E1 cable for the 16-port T1/E1
ASAP Adapter card. The T1/E1 cable consists of two cables: one for transmit (Tx) wires and
another for receive (Rx) wires. Tx+ and Rx+ are tip connections. Tx- and Rx- are ring
connections. Table 8 provides the pinout assignments for 28 AWG wire and Table 9
provides the pinout assignments for 26 AWG wire. Pins 1, 34, 35, and 68 are ground
connections and are connected to the braided shield of the cable.

The open-ended wire T1/E1 cable is available from Alcatel-Lucent in 28 AWG and
26 AWG and in lengths of 49 ft (15 m) or 98 ft (30 m). Use 28 AWG for installations using
28 AWG-compliant punch-down blocks, wire-wrap posts, or screw-down terminals. In
general, 26 AWG is the standard AWG used for installations.

Tx and Rx wires should connect to a terminal block.

Within the T1/E1 cable, there are two cables: Transmit (Tx) and Receive (Rx). For 28 AWG,
each Tx and Rx cable consists of 16 twisted pairs. For 26 AWG, each Tx and Rx cable
consists of unique “quads”, which are groupings of four wires.

To identify cable quads for 26 AWG wire:

Step 1. Identify the Transmit (Tx) and Receive (Rx) cables. The Transmit cable is labeled
“TX”, and the Receive cable is labeled “RX”.
Step 2. For each Tx and Rx cable, strip the end of the outer jacket of the cable. Note that the
wires are twisted in groups of four (quads), each quad containing one white wire, one
turquoise wire, one violet wire, and one uniquely colored wire. The uniquely colored
wire identifies the quad number, and the same color is used for both the Tx and the
Rx cables. See Table 6 for quad identification wire colors.
Step 3. For each Tx and Rx cable, after identifying the quads by color, label the quads as
Transmit 1 to 8 and Receive 1 to 8. Perform this step before untwisting the wires.

Note:
• To maintain signal integrity, wires should not be untwisted more than 0.5 in (13 mm).
