Install the Carrier

The 3821Plus card resides in a COMSPHERE

3000 Series Carrier. The carrier must be installed in a rack before the modem cards can be installed in the carrier.

The 3821Plus card requires a Shared Diagnostic Control Panel (SDCP) for control and configuration of individual modems. It also requires a Shared Diagnostic Unit (SDU) if the modems will be under control of an NMS, or if the SDCP is used for more than one carrier. Instructions for the installation of the SDCP and SDU, as well as the 3000 Series Carrier and its power supply, can be found in the COMSPHERE 3000 Series Carrier Installation Manual, document number 3000-A2-GA31.
