4.9CDM-710G Modem Connections

If adding a modem to an operating 1:N system, care needs to be taken to not interfere with the existing traffic. The cabling, power-up sequence and communication connections must be correct to avoid contention in the system from the modem Tx carrier. This information is detailed in Chapter 7.4.5 (CONFIG) ACTIVE MODEMS.

4.9.1RMI/TMI Limitations and Considerations

1.Traffic modems with differing data types are not supported by the Redundant Modem. For example, the CRS-300 can not be populated with Traffic modems

IMPORTANT with ASI and Traffic modes with HSSI.

2.Depending on the traffic data type, the appropriate jumper settings are provided on the TMI to ensure proper operation for HSSI with CA/TA signals using the CRS-336 TMI. Refer to Chapter 4. MODEM, TMI, AND SWITCH CONFIGURATION for this important configuration information

4.9.2Interface Combinations

With (2) interface card slots available in the CDM-710G modem, there are several possible interface card combinations. Table 4-4provides details for the CDM-710G interface card combinations that are compatible with the CRS-300.

Table 4-4. CDM-710G Interface Card Combinations

CDM-710G Unit Configuration		1:N CRS-300 Configuration			Notes
Interface Slot 1	Interface Slot 2	TMI Card	RMI Card
G.703 (CDI-10-1)	None	CRS-325	CRS-306	-
G.703 (CDI-10-1)	GigE (CDI-70)				Can be used as
					Redundant Unit
HSSI (CDI-60)	None			-
None	GigE (CDI-70)	CRS-336	CRS-306	-
HSSI (CDI-60)	GigE (CDI-70)				Can be used as
					Redundant Unit

Notes:

1.The Redundant Modem must have the same interface cards in each slot as any of the Traffic Modems.

2.The Traffic Modem must have the same interface cards in each slot as any of the other Traffic Modems have, or a blank panel installed.

3.Interface Slots 1 and 2 are not active simultaneously.
