Note The fan tray backplane (connector P2) is connected to the E2A alarm contact (connector J14, pins 7 and 8) on the multiplexer chassis (MC) backplane. The fan tray alarm contacts will be wired in the installation procedures so that fan tray alarms can be transmitted to the ViewRunner management software. For more information on connecting the fan tray and the MC, refer to either the Cisco 6100 Series Direct Connect Installation Guide.

Warning Only trained and qualified personnel should be allowed to install, replace, or service this equipment.

If you are using dual-port ATU-C modules, use 64-port MC cables. However, if you plan to expand your system to quad-port xTU-C modules for future releases, you can use 128-port MC cables to make future expansion easier. The 128-port MC cables are recommended for all new installations.

For detailed port mapping tables, see Appendix C, “Port Mapping.” This appendix includes port mapping tables to build MC cables.
