4. Choosing a Slot

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board is a full length x1 form factor PCI Express board that requires 25W of power. The following explanation and guidelines are provided to ensure proper configuration of the product.

Power Budgeting is a new feature, introduced in the PCI Express Specification, that provides a mechanism to enable a system to negotiate power consumption requirements for add-in devices.

Per PCI Express Card Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0a or higher, a x1 add-in card can draw no more than 10W in a x1 slot unless the board’s required power is successfully negotiated and allocated by the system (power budgeting). However, implementation of power budgeting by a vendor's system is not a compliance requirement per the PCI Express Card Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0a or higher. Therefore, some chassis may not support this feature. Power Budgeting jumper P10 is designed to ensure proper configuration of the product.

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board must be installed in a slot that can be allocated 25W.

If Power Budgeting is not implemented by a vendor's system, the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board must be plugged into a x4 or higher slot with the P10 jumper in position 1-2 (power budgeting ignored). This is allowed per PCI Express Card Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0a or higher because a x4 or greater slot must be able to support a minimum of 25W.

If Power Budgeting is implemented by a vendor's system, the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board can be plugged into a x1 slot but the P10 jumper must be in position pins 2-3 (power budgeting adhered to).

WARNING! Installing the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board in a x1 slot with the P10 jumper in position 1-2 will void the warranty of the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board.

If the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board will be connected to other telephony boards via a CT Bus cable, you should install the boards to minimize unused connectors on the CT Bus cable (in addition to ensuring that the power requirements are met):

Install boards in adjacent slots whenever possible.

If the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board will be connected to one or more PCI boards, use the PCI Express slot(s) closest to the PCI slots.

5. Installing the Board

WARNING! Unplug the equipment before performing the procedures described here. Failure to disconnect the power before you open the chassis can result in personal injury. Ensure that the system is disconnected from its power source and from all telecommunications links, networks, or modem lines whenever the chassis cover is removed. Do not operate the system with the cover removed.

CAUTION: To avoid possible damage to the board, remove power from the computer before beginning installation. Observe proper anti-static precautions at all times while handling and installing the board.

To install the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board, perform the following steps:

1.Turn off all power to the system and disconnect the system’s power cords.

2.Remove the computer’s cover.

3.Choose an empty PCI Express expansion slot and remove the slot’s retaining screw and access cover plate.

4.Insert the board’s edge connector into the bus slot, and apply firm pressure to the top edge of the board until the board is fully seated in the edge connector.

5.Reinstall the retaining screw.

6.Repeat Step 3 through Step 5 for any additional boards you are installing

7.Connect the telephony boards together with a CT Bus cable of the appropriate size (not included). If possible, use a cable assembly that matches the number of boards in your system. If the cable has more than one unused connector, install the cable so that all the unused connectors are at one end of the cable.

6.Connecting to External Equipment

Each RJ-48C jack on the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board rear bracket supports a single T1 or E1 digital network interface. Use an appropriate cable to connect each RJ-48C jack on the bracket to your CSU or other network termination equipment.

The following figure illustrates the pinout of the RJ- 48C jack.

7. After Installing the Board

The DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board requires the use of a Dialogic®System Software version that specifically supports it.

If this is the first Dialogic® telecom board you have installed in your system, you will need to install an appropriate version of the Dialogic® System Software and configure the software for the specific board(s) you are using. Refer to the installation and configuration documentation that accompanies the release for instructions.

If you are installing the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board in a system that already has the Dialogic® System Software installed, you should verify that your installed software version supports the board. If not, you will need to obtain and install a Service

8. Removing the Board

Removal of the DM/V1200BTEPEQ Media board is essentially the reverse of the installation procedure:

1.Observe anti-static precautions.

2.Disconnect the telephony cables.

3.Remove the computer’s power cord.

4.Remove the computer’s cover.

5.Disconnect the CT Bus cable (if applicable).

6.Remove and set aside the board’s retaining screw.

7.Remove the board and place it in static- protective packaging.

Removal of the board is a straightforward process. Remove the board using the reverse of the procedure described in the Installing the Board section.
