Shared Diagnostic Control Panel (SDCP) Installation

A single Shared Diagnostic Control Panel (SDCP) can control up to eight carriers containing up to 128 compatible T1 CSUs, T1 DSU/CSUs, DSUs, or dial/lease modems. The number of devices that can be installed in a carrier or cabinet is reduced when Time Division Multiplexer (TDM) or Multichannel Multipoint (MCMP)

circuit cards are also installed. A TDM or MCMP circuit card (functioning as a multiplexer or digital bridge) is physically attached to Models 3551, 3611, and 3616 DSUs and occupies a separate slot in the carrier. In a single carrier without an NMS connection, an SDU is not required to provide the SDCP interface. In a cabinet configuration of two or more carriers, however, an SDU is required in each carrier to connect the SDCP interface from carrier to carrier. Figure 3-11 shows the SDCP and Table 3-2 defines the SDCP status indicators.
