Media Gateway cabling requirements

Media Gateways require the following:

•Each Media Gateway and Media Gateway Expander requires up to four

25-pair cables:

—one 25-pair cable for each slot that is equipped with a trunk or line circuit card

—one 25-pair cable for each NTAK03 or NTAK02 card not using the NTAK19EC 2-port SDI cable or the NTAK19FB 4-port SDI cable

•When Ethernet connections are used instead of traditional cabling, use the Media Card Input/Output Adapter.

•For the NTAK09 1.5 Mbit DTI/PRI circuit card, use the NTBK04 cable.

•For the NTAK10 2.0 Mbit DTI circuit card, NTAK79 2.0 Mbit PRI circuit card, and NTBK50 2.0 Mbit PRI circuit card, use the NTBK05 cable.

Cabling an IPE Module or Media Gateway

Follow Procedure 45 to cable IPE Modules (NT8D37), Media Gateways, or Media Gateway Expanders.

Note: The corner vertical channels in the rear of the IPE module are outside of the EMI shield. Cables in those vertical channels must be shielded, and must enter and exit the EMI-shielded area through I/O panels and adapters.
