Chapter 2: Installing the Hardware

Modem Connection LEDs

The 5536-DM RAS provides an LED for each modem included on the board (for example, 12 LEDs for 12 modems). These LEDs turn on when a modem has established a connection on the MVIP Bus. They turn off when the modem has interrupted the connection.

Completing the MVIP Bus Connection

To create a dedicated interconnection among MVIP boards, connect a ribbon cable to the 40-pin, double-row, right-angled headers on the top edges of the boards.

After you finish connecting the board to the MVIP Bus, finish the remaining steps in the Installing the Board section.
