Preparing for installation

SwitchSlots

Succession 1000 A pair of consecutive slots in any Media Gateway or Media Gateway Expansion.

Note: The 201i server cannot be installed in slots 0 or 4, because these slots are dedicated to other cards. For more information about cards and slots, refer to the Succession 1000 Planning and Installation Guide (NTP 553-3023-210).

Meridian 1 I/O panel connections

On large Meridian 1 systems (such as Option 51C), the 201i server requires two connections from the slots to the I/O panel on the rear of the switch, as follows:

„One connection is for the multi I/O cable.

This connection corresponds to the left slot (when viewing the front of the Meridian 1 switch).

„The other connection is for the external SCSI device.

This connection corresponds to the right slot (when viewing the front of the Meridian 1 switch).

For information about slot and rear bulkhead wiring, refer to the Meridian 1 System Installation and Maintenance Guide (NTP 553-3001-210).

CLAN and ELAN network requirements

If you have a LAN (for example, customer LAN [CLAN] or embedded LAN [ELAN]), the LAN must be configured and the appropriate networking equipment must be available.
