4.6 CONNECTING THE 3088RC/K/K (E1) INTERFACE

The Model 3088RC/K/K is a rear-mountable G.703/G.704 interface card that works with the Patton Model 3088RC function card. The two cards meet inside the rack chassis and plug into each other by way of mating 50 pin card edge connectors. Use the following steps as a guideline for installing each Model 3088RC/K/K and its function card mate into the rack chassis:

1.Slide the rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails provided.

2.Secure the rear card using the metal screws provided.

3.Slide the front card into the front of the chassis. It should meet the rear card when it’s almost all the way into the chassis.

4.Push the front card gently into the card-edge receptacle of the rear card. It should “click” into place.

5.Secure the front card using the thumb screws.

4.7CONNECTING THE 3088RC/C/AI (ETHERNET) INTERFACE

The Model 3088RC/C/AI is a rear-mountable ethernet interface card. The two cards meet inside the rack chassis and plug into each other by way of mating 50 pin card edge connectors. Use the following steps as a guideline for installing each Model 3088RC/C/AI and its function card mate into the rack chassis:

1.Slide the 3088RC/C/AI rear card into the back of the chassis along the metal rails provided.

2.Secure the 3088RC/C/AI rear card using the metal screws provided.

3.Slide the front function card into the front of the chassis. It should meet the 3088RC/C/AI rear card when it is almost all the way into the chassis.

4.Push the front card gently into the card-edge receptacle of the rear card. It should “click” into place.

5.Secure the front card using the thumb screws.
