Chapter 1- Hardware Description

RTM ISDN

The RTM ISDN card connects directly to an MPM/MPM+. The RTM ISDN card routes data between the MPM/MPM+ cards and components of the system, converts ISDN T1/E1 media to IP packets and provides connectivity to external ISDN networks.

The RTM ISDN card is installed on the rear panel of the RMX interfaces between the RMX unit and the ISDN/PSTN switch. Up to two RTM ISDN

cards can be installed in one RMX 2000.

With the RMX 2000, you can either have a dedicated E1 or T1 Type Network

Service. It is not possible to have a mixed E1 and T1 ISDN Network Service.

An RTM ISDN card must connect directly to an MPM/MPM+ card:

•In an RMX with a single MPM/MPM+ card – the RTM ISDN card must be installed in the rear panel slot on the same level as the MPM/ MPM+ card

In an RMX with two MPM/MPM+ cards – the RTM ISDN card can be installed in either of the two rear panel card slots. Up to a total of 14 E1 or 18 T1 PRI cables can be installed with two MPM/MPM+ and RTM ISDN cards

Each RTM ISDN card includes the following connections:

•7 E1 or 9 T1 PRI lines that can be plugged into any of the 12 connections as shown in Figure 1-3
