Vintage levels cabling 16 ports

For modules with vintage levels that cabled 16 ports to the I/O panel, the lineside T1 card can be installed into the following card slot pairs:

Available: Motherboard/Daughterboard

0 and 1

1 and 2

4 and 5

7 and 8

8 and 9

9 and 10

12 and 13

13 and 14

The lineside T1 card cannot be installed into the following card slot pairs:

Restricted: Motherboard/Daughterboard

2 and 3

3 and 4

6 and 7

10 and 11

11 and 12

14 and 15

If the lineside T1 card must be installed into one of the restricted card slot pairs, rewire the IPE module card slot to the I/O panel by installing an additional NT8D81 cable from the lineside T1 card motherboard slot to the I/ O panel. Re-arrange the three backplane connectors for the affected card slots. This will permit the connection of the NT5D13AA lineside T1 card carrier and maintenance external I/O cable at the IPE module I/O panel connector for card slots that are otherwise restricted.

Also, all lineside T1 card connections can be made at the main distribution frame instead of connecting the NT5D13 lineside T1 card external I/O cable at the I/O panel. This eliminates these card slots restrictions.
