Installing DSL Cards

Installing and Connecting the Hardware

3.Carefully slide the MCC card into the slot. Gently, but firmly, push the card until it engages its mating connectors on the backplane.

4.Press on the right side of the MCC's front panel with one hand and on the back of the 8600 chassis with the other until the MCC's connector seats in its mating connector.

5.Make sure the OK SYSTEM indicator on the MCC faceplate is ON (green). if not, refer to Chapter 4, Troubleshooting.

6.Secure the MCC card by fastening the screws on each end of the faceplate.

NOTE:

The MCC card may be replaced without disruption to user data (i.e., you can remove and re-install the MCC card without powering down the 8600 chassis and disrupting service to the other cards). To remove the MCC card from the base chassis, unfasten the screws on both ends of the faceplate. Then, simply push the ejector handles outward and slide the card out.

When swapping the old MCC card with a new MCC card, it is important to note that the 8600 chassis DSLAM retains the Media Access Control (MAC) address, also referred to as the physical address. This means that the new MCC card will have the same MAC address as the old one.

Installing DSL Cards

Use a small- to medium-size flat-blade screwdriver to install the DSL card.

NOTE:

The 8600 chassis are shipped with filler plates in Slots 1, 2, and 3. If the slot where the DSL is to be installed has a filler plate, it must be removed.

Do not discard filler plates. Each slot in the chassis must contain a circuit card or a filler plate to maintain the required EMI shielding and to prevent air leakage from the forced air cooling. Air leakage could result in overheating which may cause the power to the circuit cards to be shut off. Store all unused filler plates in a safe place. You may need to use the filler plates to cover open slots in the chassis at a later time.
