Procedure 73

Connecting a Nortel CP PM Signaling Server

Note: Refer to Figure 139 when performing the following procedure.

1Establish a maintenance terminal connection at the back of the shelf of the IPMG. The com (SDI) port of the CP PM circuit card Signaling Server is routed through the backplane of the shelf to the 50 pin MDF connector on the back of the shelf. A special cable is shipped with the CP PM signaling server that adapts the 50 pin MDF connector to a 25 pin DB connector (NTAK19EC). A DTE-DTE null modem serial cable is required to adapt the SDI port to a typical PC serial port.

a.Connect the NTAK19EC cable (shipped with the CP PM Signaling Server) to the 50 pin MDF connector on the back of the desired shelf of the IPMG.

b.Connect a DTE-DTE null modem serial cable to the 25 pin DB connector at the end of the NTAK19EC cable. Connect the other end of the DTE-DTE null modem serial cable to the serial port on the maintenance terminal.

2Insert the Signaling Server circuit card into an appropriate slot on the shelf of the IPMG. The CP PM Signaling Server is hot-pluggable so it may be inserted without powering off the system. The maintenance terminal now has access to the CP PM Signaling Server through the 50-pin MDF connector associated with the card slot that the CP PM Signaling Server is inserted into on the IPMG.

3Connect the Signaling Server to the TLAN subnet. Insert the RJ-45 CAT5 (or better) cable into the TLAN port (TLAN network interface) on the front of the Signaling Server. The TLAN port is the middle one of the three network interfaces.

4Connect the Signaling Server to the ELAN subnet. Insert the RJ-45 CAT5 (or better) cable into the ELAN port (ELAN network interface) on the front of the Signaling Server. The ELAN port is the bottom one of the three network interfaces.
