Built-In Card Handles

Built-In Card Handles

Several of the cards for the Axxius 800 are designed with a handle built into the faceplate to assist in the removal of the card from the chassis. This handle slides out away from the unit, creating a handle for a more effective grip. The Controller cards and the Single Channel POTS card have this feature.

Management Ports

RS-232 Craft Port

The Axxius 800 contains an RS-232 craft port for connection through any VT100 terminal, PC, or modem for remote management using the Command Line Interface.

10/100Base-T Ethernet Port

A 10/100Base-T Ethernet Port available for management on the Controller card.

Local and Remote Management

The Controller cards have several local and remote management options available. Front-panel LEDs quickly communicate alarm, system and line status. The cards can be configured and managed locally through the RS-232 or Ethernet management connections on the Interface card using a Command Line Interface (CLI).

A number of remote management options are available to reduce truck roll costs for most maintenance and troubleshooting activities. The in-band DS0 management channel on the controller delivers 64 Kbps remote access to the Axxius 800 without incurring additional facilities costs. Alternatively, as separate Ethernet facility can be deployed to support out-of-band SNMP network management, and the controller can also be accessed through the V.34 dial-in modem connection from the Single Channel POTS with V.34 Modem Service card. Remote configuration, monitoring, maintenance, and troubleshooting tasks are further simplified from the central Network Operation Center (NOC) using the graphical interfaces of the NetworkValet EMS.
