Installing FOM-E1/T1/R into the ASM-MN-214 Card Cage
To install FOM-E1/T1/R into ASM-MN-214:
1. Install the ASM-MN-214 card cage in the 19-inch rack.
2. Insert the FOM-E1/T1/R card into one of the ASM-MN-214 slots.
3. Push the card into the cage until it is fully inserted into the edge connector
inside the rack.
4. Tighten the screws on the front panel of the card.
Connecting the Interfaces
FOM-E1/T1/R uses the ASM-MN-214 rear panel terminal block ports for the E1/T1
connections. The 25-pin D-type female connector serves as an alarm relay port.

Balanced E1/T1

The two TX screws of the terminal block serve as the E1/T1 electrical signal outputs
of the modem. The RX screws serve of the terminal block as the electrical signal
inputs to the modem.

Unbalanced E1

When operating FOM-E1/T1/R with unbalanced E1 interface, use
CIA/TB-BNC/214 adapter, which converts the terminal block connector into two
coaxial BNC connectors.

Fiber Optic

The ST, SC or FC fiber optic connectors are located on the front panel of the
modem card.

Alarm Relay

The ASM-MN-214 DB-25 connector serves as an alarm relay port (see Appendix A
for the connector pinout).
