Chapter 2 Installing the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8100 Series Hardware

About Telephony Configurations for IP Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Systems

Step 2 Attach the far end of the first E1 or T1 PRI telephony cable to the equipment that will connect with Cisco Unified MeetingPlace.

In many cases, the other equipment has an RJ-48c socket in which to plug theE1 or T1 PRI telephony cable. Alternately, the other equipment will be connected to a punchdown block. In this case, you will need to determine the block’s connection diagram and then connect to it with discrete wires from the cable.

Step 3 Plug the other end of the first E1 or T1 PRI telephony cable into the RJ-45 jack, labeled 1, on the far left of the front of the breakout box.

Step 4 Repeat Step 2 and Step 3 until all the E1 or T1 PRI telephony cables are connected to the first breakout box for the first MP-MA-16-PRI. For the second MP-MA-16-PRI, repeat Step 2 and Step 3 to connect the second set of 16 E1 or T1 PRI telephony cables to the second breakout box.

Step 5 Connect the trunk card cable assemblies (50-pin Amphenol cable) for the first MP-MA-16-PRI to the back of the first breakout box by securing the screws on both ends.

Looking at the back of the breakout box, place the first trunk card cable assembly into the connector on the right.

Step 6 Connect the other end of the trunk card cable assembly (50-pin Amphenol cable) for the first MP-MA-16-PRI into the Multi Access Blade transition module by securing the screws on both ends.

Place the trunk card cable assembly into the connector on the bottom, labeled spans 9 to 16.

Step 7 Repeat Step 5 and Step 6 for the second trunk card cable assembly (50-pin Amphenol cable) for the first MP-MA-16-PRI.

The second trunk card cable assembly should go into the connector on the left side of the breakout box and on the right side of the Multi Access Blade, in the connector labeled spans 9 to 16.

Step 8 Repeat Step 5 through Step 7 for the trunk card cable assemblies (50-pin Amphenol cables) for the second MP-MA-16-PRI.

About Telephony Configurations for IP Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Systems

Pure IP Cisco Unified MeetingPlace systems are configurations that use only IP functionality and do not use any T1 CAS, T1 PRI, or E1 functionality.

Note Pure IP Cisco Unified MeetingPlace systems do not use a breakout box.

Cisco Systems ships the necessary number of IP LAN cables with the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Audio Server. The number of IP LAN cables that you receive depends on the number of Multi Access Blades in the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace system. You receive one IP LAN cable for every Multi Access Blade.

Looking at the back of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8106, the Multi Access Blade transition modules for IP configurations begin in slot 6 on the top and move down to the bottom. The Smart Blades begin from the bottom in slot 1. They do not have any cables connected to them.

Looking at the back of the Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8112, the Multi Access Blade transition modules for IP configurations begin in slot 16 on the left and move to the right. The Smart Blades begin in slot 1 and move to the left. They do not have any cables connected to them.
