Planning the Network
This chapter outlines preparatory steps that should be executed before you install the SDM-9585 in the SDM-9500 chassis and configure it for your application.
Preparing the Site

Unpacking
As soon as you receive your SDM-9500 and installable cards, check the carton and its contents for any sign of damage during shipment. If there is any damage, contact the shipping agent immediately. If you need to return the SDM-9500 or its cards for any reason, you must ship it in the original carton using adequate shock insulation material. Failure to do so may void the equipment warranty. Consult the Warranty statements included with the product package. Before you start SDM-9500 installation, verify the contents of the carton to ensure that you have received a complete package, which includes the following items: The SDM-9500 chassis 1 or more SDM-9585 cards for the chassis slots, depending on your order Optional expansion card for connecting this SDM-9500 chassis to another 1 power cord 1 RS-232 cable for console connection (DB-9 female to DB-25 male) 2 ferrites for the cables connecting to the 2 Ethernet ports (see page 84 for installation instructions), Steward ferrite 28A2029-0A0 Optional interface cards: FXS, FXO, E&M, T1, E1, ISDN-BRI S/T, Dual Serial; maximum 4 per SDM-9585 card Optional DSP SIMM modules, each with 1, 3 or 6 DSP processors, maximum 4 SIMMs on each SDM-9585 card 1 voice cable kit per analog voice interface card (FXS, FXO, E&M): 2 standard RJ-11 to RJ-11 cables for each FXS or FXO interface card 4 RJ-45 to RJ-45 cables per E&M interface card

2 ferrites per E1-120 interface card, for the cables connecting to the two E1-120 ports (see page 84 for installation instructions), Steward ferrite 28A2024-0A0 The NetPerformer Documentation CD This guide. If any of these items are missing, or if you have any questions concerning your shipment, contact NetPerformer Technical Support. Refer to the section Technical Support on page 26.
Location
To ensure that the SDM-9500 functions properly, you should install the unit in an appropriate location which satisfies certain criteria for size, connection distance and ambient environment. Caution: Unit must be installed in a restricted access location.
Size Requirements
Select a hard, flat surface capable of supporting the combined weight of the SDM-9500, its cabling and attached equipment. Ensure that a sufficient number of shelves, supports, racks and cabinets are available to safely house all equipment.
Distance Requirements
The SDM-9500 chassis should be no more than 2 meters (approx. 6 feet) away from an easily accessible AC power supply: 100-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Warning: In countries where a 2-pin non-grounded power cord must be used, ensure that the SDM-9500 is independently grounded with a wire from Ground securely attached to the ground pin on the power supply module at the rear of the unit chassis. The SDM-9500 chassis should be no more than 8 meters (25 feet) away from any equipment to be connected to the serial (WAN/user) interfaces. Note: Equipment that is directly connected to the voice interfaces can be placed much farther away. Up to 2750 meters (9000 feet) of cable is permitted between each SDM-9500 analog interface and its attached equipment. No more than 8 meters (25 feet) between modems and WAN link (PVCR) connections.
28
Verso Technologies
Note: Distance may be an important factor for an E&M interface. If the PBX and the SDM-9500 are not near each other (in the same room, for example) then their AC grounds may not be the same. Refer to E&M Grounding Considerations on page 103 for a workaround.
Environmental Requirements
For trouble-free operation of the SDM-9500 its location must satisfy the following environmental criteria: Humidity ranging from 10% to 90%, non-condensing Ambient temperature ranging from 0C to 45C (32F to 113F) Maximum operating altitude of 3048 meters (10 000 feet) Proper ventilation on all sides of the device. To ensure adequate cooling of the SDM-9500, a 5 cm (2 inch) unobstructed space must be maintained around all sides of the unit, and all unused slots must be closed with a plate.
What You Will Need

For trouble-free installation of the SDM-9500 hardware make sure you have the following on hand: The SDM-9500 chassis, or multiple chassis that are daisy-chained together. Installation of an expansion card is dealt with in Expansion Card for the Rackmount Chassis on page 85. All SDM-9585 cards that you want to install in the chassis slots. (Optional) All the interface cards and DSP SIMM modules that you want to install on the SDM-9585 cards (if not factory installed). For details on these options, refer to Interface Cards on page 44 and DSP SIMM Modules on page 54. At least one of the following configuration and management access devices: A console terminal (TTY terminal or a PC equipped with terminal emulation software) for direct or dial-up connection to the console port on the SDM-9585 card, or A TELNET network device accessed through IP connectivity over LAN/WAN, or An SNMP agent accessed through IP connectivity over LAN/WAN. Note: When you first take the SDM-9585 card out of the box, the only configuration device you can use is the console terminal, since the unit does not yet have an IP address.

Creating a Network Diagram

Before you install the SDM-9500 and connect it to your data, LAN and voice/fax equipment, you should have a clear idea of how you want to design your network: To create a network diagram: 1. Draw a sketch of your proposed physical network in as much detail as you can. This diagram will prove useful when configuring the SDM-9500 or making later modifications to your network. 2. Determine what naming convention you will use to distinguish each SDM-9585 card from all other units in your network, and write all unit names on the network diagram. Note: We suggest that you name each card according to its location, to reflect the physical network structure. 3. Next to each SDM-9500, make a list of all voice/fax and data equipment you want to support at each site. 4. For the voice connections, annotate the network diagram with: a. For the NetPerformer with SIP VoIP licensed firmware option: A dialing schema in accordance with Clarent Call Manager and Command Center. For more details refer to the NetPerformer User Guide and the NetPerformer System Reference Manual. b. For the NetPerformer base product (without SIP): A unique speed dial number for each remote unit extension, unless predefined activation will be used, and A unique extension number for each end device. Note: All extension numbers used in the network must be of the same length, that is, they must all use the same number of digits. Therefore, you should design your numbering system according to the longest extension number required. c. The required interfaces, speeds, IP addresses, line activation types, ring voltage, ring frequency and any other information relevant to your network setup. d. The number of calls that must be supported at one time for each node. Note: The number of voice channels supported by a DSP processor depends on the voice algorithm used. Refer to Table 6, Number of voice channels per DSP processor, on page 54. 5. For the data connections, annotate the network diagram with: a. The required protocol and line speed. Keep in mind the maximum port speeds permitted for each port protocol:

b. The required port interface and gender (DTE/DCE). Note: These are automatically detected by the port, based on the gender of the attached HD-26 cable. c. For an SNA/SDLC application, all controller (PU) numbers and their addresses, identifying the primary and secondary connections to the SDM-9500. d. For a Frame Relay application, all PVC numbers, operating modes, DLCI addresses, SVC network addresses, CIR and BIR. 6. For the LAN connections, make a note of: a. All required IP or other network addresses. b. The required interfaces and speeds (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps). 7. For the T1/E1 data/voice connections, determine: a. Signaling type, including any customized signaling properties. b. Timeslot usage and number of data and voice channels required. c. Operating protocols for data channels. d. The types of voice compression algorithms required and the percentage of DSPs that should be allocated to each. This percentage can be calculated from the number of voice channels required and the number of voice channels supported per DSP when running a particular algorithm. Refer to Table 6, Number of voice channels per DSP processor, on page 54. Note: This calculation will also indicate the minimum number of DSPs required. DSP SIMMs carry 1, 3 or 6 DSPs each. Note: There are no limitations on the number of timeslots that can be used for Drop and Insert purposes other than the maximum of 4 interface cards that can be installed on the unit. Drop and Insert is handled by a digital cross-connection switch that requires no extra processing power.

Verso Technologies
8. Determine the priority level of each traffic type in your network and annotate the network diagram with this information for the Weight Fair Queueing (WFQ) prioritization scheme: To avoid response time problems and session timeouts, delay sensitive protocols (such as LLC2, SDLC and DLSw) can be assigned a high priority. Voice/fax traffic is given high-priority status by default, due to its time-sensitive nature. You can change this priority to a lower level, if desired. For LAN/legacy traffic, the way the available bandwidth will be partitioned depends on the way you configure the class assignments, the relative class weights and specific data filters.
Maximum Number of Connections

SDM-9585 Card
Ensure that you have ordered the correct number of SDM-9585 cards by comparing your network diagram totals at each location with the maximum number of serial, LAN, analog voice, digital T1/E1, PVC and PU connections permitted on each unit: Table 2 Maximum number of connections per SDM-9585 Maximum Number per Unit

SDM-9500 Redundant Power Supply

Depending on the optional hardware you intend to install in the SDM9500 chassis and the number and type of connections for your application, a second power supply may be required for the chassis. Study the table below to evaluate the proposed hardware installation for each SDM-9500 chassis in your network. Note: This table provides a best case scenario under ideal circumstances. As a general rule, you should not configure more than 240 voice channels on a single SDM-9500 chassis in order to use a single power supply and have the second one for redundancy only.

All four slots on the SDM-9585 card can be loaded with dual serial port interface cards, subject to the following restrictions: The total throughput per slot cannot exceed 1536 Kbps The maximum throughput for all 4 slots is 4096 Kbps (64 timeslots). All digital interface cards (T1, E1-75, E1-120, ISDN-BRI S/T, Dual Serial) installed on the same unit and used for data (Frame Relay, HDLC, etc.) have to share the maximum total capacity of the TDM bus for the product. Note: A T1 or E1 interface card in ATM mode (license required) does not use the same timeslots for data. The ATM option provides a global parameter Number of data channels reserved, which defines the total number of timeslots available for data transfer. The value of this parameter should be set according to the maximum throughput speed required. Divide this speed by the speed of one timeslot (64 Kbps) to determine how many data channels should be reserved. Together with the built-in serial ports, the maximum number of serial ports per SDM-9585 card is 11.

DSP SIMM Modules

High density, high performance DSP SIMM modules digitize, process and compress voice signals on the SDM-9585 card. The DSPs load the voice compression software and handle fax/modem emulation. The DSP SIMM modules plug into SIMM connectors located on the Signaling Engine board. Refer to Installing the DSP SIMMs on page 68. Caution: The DSP SIMM module is intended for the SDM-9585, SDM-9360 and SDM-9380 only. DO NOT replace this DSP SIMM module with a DSP-120 SIMM module, which is intended for the SDM-9220 or SDM-9230. Likewise, do not install a DSP-120 SIMM module in an SDM-9360, SDM-9380 or SDM-9585 unit. A maximum of four DSP SIMM modules can be installed. Each DSP SIMM module has 1, 3 or 6 DSP processors. There are 128KB of SRAM per DSP processor. The number of voice channels supported by a single DSP processor depends on the voice compression algorithm allocated to it.

Note: The allocation of voice compression algorithms to available DSPs is controlled by the DSPA console command. Consult the NetPerformer User Guide for instructions. The echo tail delay in the above table refers to the maximum duration of return echo that the DSP is able to cancel. It is limited by DSP processing power and memory, and differs according to the voice codec selected for the DSP. Note: Due to memory constraints 16 ms is the maximum echo tail delay that a DSP can handle, no matter which codec is selected.

For example, if a 14-ms return echo is received on a DSP running G726, the DSP will not be able to cancel 2 ms of echo.
Indicators
LED indicators on the SDM-9500 chassis and SDM-9585 card provide pertinent information regarding the status of built-in interfaces and the system as a whole. Other LEDs on the interface cards indicate the status of optional physical ports.
SDM-9500 Chassis
Power indicators are located on the power supply modules at the front of the SDM-9500 chassis. The LED labeled POWER goes ON when the unit is powered on. On a unit loaded with a redundant power supply, both POWER LEDs should stay ON when the SDM-9500 is in use. If a POWER LED stays OFF when the SDM-9500 is powered on, the corresponding power supply may have failed. Note: The upper power supply is referred to as Power Supply A, and the optional lower power supply is referred to as Power Supply B.
SDM-9585 Card
All SDM-9585 card indicators are located on the front face of the card (refer to Figure 3, The SDM-9585 Card, on page 41). Two LEDs are located above the console port: PWR (green) goes on when the SDM-9585 card is powered on DIAG (yellow/green/red) can indicate several states: Table 7 State

Doc. No. 620-0210-001
Important: Keep the faceplate for possible reuse at a later time. To ensure optimum ventilation inside the unit chassis, there should be no large openings on the front face of the SDM9585 card. If you decide to remove an interface card, you will need to replace the faceplate for that slot. 6. Carefully remove the interface card from its protective packaging. Caution: Do not expose the interface card or the SDM-9585 to a magnetic field or electrostatic charge at any time. Damage to their components could result. Use ESD (Electrostatic Sensitive Devices) procedure at all times. 7. Holding the interface card with its circuit side face down, align it over the slot: Align the 10-pin male connector on the interface card over the 10-pin female connector on the slot. Align the 60-pin male connector on the interface card over the 60-pin female connector on the slot. 8. Press the interface card firmly into place: The faceplate of the interface card should slip easily into place behind the slot cutout in the rear wall of the chassis. Ensure that both connectors are fully engaged. Caution: Be careful to insert interface cards fully into the unit, and ensure that all screws are properly tightened. If an interface card is not correctly installed, proper contact may not be made. This could result in a continuous reset of the unit, or the unit could boot but the Signaling Engine crash shortly afterward. 9. Screw the faceplate of the interface card into place using the 4 Phillips screws that you removed from the slot earlier. Note: Torque on the faceplate screws should be no more than 6 inlbs. 10. If the SDM-9585 card was already installed in the SDM-9500 chassis, push the card back into place and tighten the thumbscrews on the front plate of the card. Caution: Do not force the card into place. If it is properly aligned on the chassis rails it should slide easily all the way in. 11. Reconnect any cables that you may have removed earlier.

Hardware Strapping
T1, E1-120 and ISDN-BRI S/T Interface Cards
The T1, E1-120 and ISDN-BRI S/T interface cards require hard strapping for NT/TE mode. Refer to the procedure Setting the NT/TE Mode on page 75.

Hardware strapping is not required on the E1-75 interface card (equipped with BNC connectors). If the line does not come up on this interface card, the problem could be related to the TX/RX cable connections. Invert the cables attached to the left (TX) and right (RX) BNC connectors of the port.
For the E1-75 interface card, switch the cables between the TX and RX connectors.
Figure 17
Inverting the Cables on the E1-75 Interface Card
Line Impedance on Analog Interface Cards

Line impedance on all analog interface cards is set at the factory to 600 ohms. This setting can be changed to either 900 ohms or Complex, using a program that creates and loads the coefficients of the line impedance value on a country by country basis. Contact NetPerformer Technical Support for assistance with this program.

The Dual Serial interface card has universal serial ports which require no hard strapping. Their HD-26 female connectors provide autodetection of interface and gender according to the type of HD-26 cable that is installed. Refer to Appendix A, Connectors and Cables.
Signaling Type on E&M Interface Card

Hardware strapping by means of DIP switch settings is required for an E&M interface card to define the electrical paths used by the different E&M signaling types supported (Types I, II and V). Caution: Configure the E&M interface type before you connect the voice ports. Otherwise, the interface card could be damaged. The E&M interface card is strapped at the factory for E&M Signaling Type I. If you need to change this setting, you have to change the hardware strapping before you install the card in the SDM9585. If the E&M card is already installed, remove it following the procedure Removing an Interface Card on page 67. For ground strap options see E&M Grounding Considerations on page 103. Warning: Exercise extreme caution when setting the DIP switches for the E&M type. These DIP switches must not be changed while the unit is under power. To avoid electrical shock and damage to the interface card or other hardware components, make sure that the unit is disconnected from its power source before you access any of its internal components. Do not remove the chassis cover under any circumstances. Use ESD (Electrostatic Sensitive Devices) procedure at all times.
Setting the E&M Signaling Type

Strapping the E&M Signaling Type requires configuration of the 10position DIP switch (SW1) located on the component side of the E&M interface card.

You need to change the factory setting of switch SW1 only if you require E&M Type II or Type V. To turn a DIP switch ON, flip it in the direction of the ON label next to SW1. To turn a DIP switch OFF, flip it in the direction away from the ON label. The settings for the different E&M Types are: Table 12 E&M Type 1 DIP switch settings for E&M Type SW1 DIP Switches 2

NT/TE Mode on Digital Interface Cards

On the T1, E1-120 and ISDN-BRI S/T interface cards, the directionality of the clock signals is set to NT (Network Termination) or TE (Terminal Equipment) mode through hardware strapping. In NT mode, the interface provides the clock signal to the connected device. In TE mode, the interface uses the receive clock from the connected device to transmit data. This is the factory default setting.
74
Verso Technologies
The two ends of a T1 or E1 connection must have opposite NT/TE values. Thus some digital interface cards in your application may need to be changed to NT mode. The rule of thumb is: If you are connecting the physical digital port directly to the network (or to another physical digital port that has been strapped as NT), you do not need to change the TE factory setting. If you are connecting the physical digital port to user equipment (or to another physical digital port that has been strapped as TE), you must change the NT/TE mode of the interface card to NT.
Setting the NT/TE Mode

To set the NT/TE mode on a T1, E1-120 or ISDN-BRI interface card you need to strap 2 jumpers located on the component side of the interface card: jumpers JP5 and JP6. For their exact location examine: Figure 19, Location of Jumpers for NT/TE on T1 and E1-120 Interface Cards, on page 76, and Figure 20, Location of Jumpers for NT/TE on ISDN-BRI S/T Interface Card, on page 77. If the interface card is already installed, remove it following the procedure Removing an Interface Card on page 67.

To change the jumper setting for NT/TE mode on a T1, E1-120 or ISDN-BRI S/T interface card: Note: Hard strapping must be done carefully, to ensure that the pins are well-engaged in the jumper base on both sides. Warning: Exercise extreme caution when setting the NT/ TE mode. Jumper positions must not be changed while the unit is under power. To avoid electrical shock and damage to the interface card or other hardware components, make sure that the unit is disconnected from its power source before you access any of its internal components. Also ensure that the T1/E1 cable has been disconnected from the digital interface card. Do not remove the chassis cover under any circumstances. Use ESD (Electrostatic Sensitive Devices) procedure at all times.
77
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
1. Determine the current setting of the card, following the NT/TE indications written on the interface card near jumpers JP5 and JP6. T1 and E1-120 interface card: the jumper block for JP5 has 9 pins in a 3x3 formation. 6 of these pins (2 rows) are covered by the jumper. JP6 has 12 pins in a 3x4 formation, with 8 pins (2 rows) covered by the jumper. ISDN-BRI card: the jumper blocks for both JP5 and JP6 have 15 pins in a 3x5 formation. 10 of these pins (2 rows) are covered by the jumper. If you are strapping a new card, you need to change the factory setting of jumpers JP5 and JP6 only if you require NT mode on the card. For both JP5 and JP6, moving the jumper from one side to the other changes TE mode (the factory setting) to NT mode. 2. Hold the interface card firmly in one hand. Caution: Do not expose the interface card or the SDM-9585 to a magnetic field or electrostatic charge at any time. Damage to their components could result. 3. Using needle-nosed pliers, move the jumpers to the pin positions required for your interface. Refer to Figure 19, which shows the setting required for TE mode on the T1 and E1-120 cards. Note: Both jumpers must be strapped the same way, that is, to the TE side or the NT side. Caution: Correct configuration of the NT/TE mode jumpers is extremely important. If you do not strap the digital interface card correctly, the T1 or E1 line will be down and transmission cannot take place. Make sure that each T1/E1 connection is configured for NT mode at one end and TE mode at the other (unless you are using a crossover cable). Also make sure that, for each interface card, jumpers JP5 and JP6 are set to the same mode.
Installing the Chassis

Installation of the SDM-9500 chassis and its cards involves: Installing the SDM-9585 cards (see next section) Installing the rack (see page 80) System power-up (see page 80) Connection to the console (see page 82) Connections to user equipment (see page 83) Installing all required EMI filters (ferrites) (see page 84) (Optional) Connection to another SDM-9500 chassis (see page 85).

Installing an SDM-9585 Card

To install an SDM-9585 card in the SDM-9500 chassis and prepare it for cable connection, follow this procedure: 1. Remove 2 adjoining faceplates from any of the 8 card slots on the chassis. Each SDM-9585 card requires 2 card slots. If the SDM-9500 will be daisy-chained with another, we recommend that you fill up the card slots on the right side first. This will reduce the risk of noise and interference. Keep the faceplates for possible reuse at a later time. To ensure optimum ventilation inside the unit chassis, there should be no large openings on the front panel of the chassis. If you decide to remove a card, you will need to replace the faceplate for that card slot. Note: Hot insertion of an SDM-9585 card is permitted. That is, you can install a card while other cards in the rack are running, with no changes or special action required. 2. Hold the card with its front plate facing you and slide it into the two open card slots until the connectors at the rear of the card engage with the backplane. Align the card such that the serial (WAN/user) ports are on the left side. The main board (bottom) goes into the left slot on the chassis and the power supply board (top) goes into the right slot. To ensure that the connectors are fully engaged, give the card a slight push at the end. Caution: The power board of an SDM-9585 card can become extremely hot during operation. When installing another SDM-9585 card in the chassis, do not touch the power board of any other card. 3. Screw the card into place on the SDM-9500 chassis using the 4 thumbscrews at the top and bottom of the SDM-9585 front plate. Note: Torque on the screws should be no more than 6 in-lbs. 4. Continue in the same way for all other cards that you want to install in the rack.
Removing a Card
To remove a card from the rack: 1. Remove all cables connected to the card. 2. Loosen the thumbscrews at the top and bottom of the front plate. 3. Pull the card out using the handles at the top and bottom of the front plate.
79
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
4. To ensure proper ventilation of the rack, install the original metal faceplates over the two empty slots.
Installing the Rack

Each rackmount bracket has 2 rows of mounting holes which allow for: Depth adjustment on the rackmount shelf, Rotation 180 front to back to accommodate alternative mounting requirements.

Rackmount Bracket Positions
To install the SDM-9500 chassis in a rackmount shelf: 1. Adjust the placement of the rackmount brackets, if desired. Secure each rackmount bracket to the side of the SDM-9500 chassis using 3 screws. 2. Hold the SDM-9500 with the front of the chassis facing you, and carefully lift it into place onto the rackmount shelf. 3. Secure the SDM-9500 in place with 4 screws on each of the vertical rackmount brackets at the front of the chassis, illustrated in Figure 1, Front View of the SDM-9500, on page 38.
Power-up
To power up the SDM-9500 unit: 1. Ensure that each card is fully engaged with the edge connector on the backplane. To do this: Observe whether all cards are flush with the front panel of the SDM-9500 chassis. If they are not, push each card in all the way, so that the edge connector on the card engages with the edge connector on the backplane of the chassis. Ensure that all thumbscrews on each card are tight.

Verso Technologies
2. Connect the factory supplied power cord to the AC inlet, located at the rear of the SDM-9500 chassis. If you have a -48V DC model, connect the terminal strip on the cable to the DC supply terminal block at the rear of the SDM-9500 chassis. Caution: If the SDM-9500 is DC powered, ensure that correct polarity of the DC power connection is observed. The terminal identified as 0V is the most positive, and should be connected to the frame ground. 3. Plug the other end of the power cord into an AC (100 to 240VAC, 50/60 Hz) or DC (-48 to -54V DC) power outlet. Caution: If the SDM-9500 is DC powered, ensure that no AC power is applied to the power connectors at any time. 4. Power up the unit by pushing the power switch at the rear of the chassis to the 1 (ON) position. On power-up the SDM-9500 executes program decompression and system test, which takes a few minutes to complete. Refer to the next section for the normal LED indicator sequence. Warning: To avoid electrical shock and damage to the unit, make sure that the unit is disconnected from its power source before you access any of its internal components. Use ESD (Electrostatic Sensitive Devices) procedure at all times.
Checking the System Status

On power-up each SDM-9585 card executes program decompression, Signaling Engine software load and system test, which takes a few minutes to complete. You can follow the system status from the front panel LEDs: The green POWER LED on the front panel lights up, indicating that the unit is receiving electrical current. The STATUS LED on the front panel goes through several stages: It turns red, followed by green, then yellow during code decompression, Then it flashes yellow during Signaling Engine software load, Then it turns off. When the STATUS LED turns off it indicates that the system is ready for access via the console. Note: If the POWER LED does not light up or the STATUS LED stays red, the unit may be faulty. Refer to the section Indicators on page 55 of this guide.
81
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
Connecting the Console Terminal

When you first take the SDM-9585 out of the box, the only configuration device you can use is a console terminal, since the unit does not yet have an IP address. The console terminal is connected through direct or dial-up connection to the console port on the SDM-9585 card. It may be: An asynchronous dumb or TTY terminal, or A PC equipped with asynchronous terminal emulation software Note: Once you have configured an IP address for the unit you may use another configuration and management access device, if preferred: A TELNET network device accessed through IP connectivity over LAN/WAN, or An SNMP agent accessed through IP connectivity over LAN/WAN. The console port is autospeed, which means the SDM-9585 sets the speed of the port as soon as it detects an active connection. Available console speeds are 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 28800, 38400, 57600 and 115200 bps. The equipment you connect to the console port must operate at one of these speeds. Note: The SDM-9585 cannot supply DTR to the modem when in autosensing mode (the default setting). If you have a dialup connection to the console terminal, use the AT command atd0 to set the modem to ignore DTR. To connect the console terminal (direct connection): 1. In the SDM-9500 product package, locate the standard RS-232/V.24 straight through cable with a DB-9 female connector at one end and a DB-25 male connector at the other end (Part number 161-0709001). 2. Connect the DB-9 connector on this cable to the SDM-9585 console port, labelled CONSOLE on the front face of the card. 3. Connect the DB-25 connector to a COM port on the console terminal or PC, or to a modem for dialup connection to a remote console. 4. Power the console terminal ON and ensure that each SDM-9585 card has successfully powered up with no system status errors (see Checking the System Status on page 81). 5. Press the <ENTER> key on the console terminal keyboard several times, until the SDM-9585 responds with a prompt for the user login. 6. Enter the administrator login: ADMIN. Note: This is the default login. Additional user logins can be defined. Refer to the NetPerformer User Guide for details. 7. Enter the password for this login. The default password for the administrator login is SETUP.
82

Connections to User Equipment

FXO, FXS and digital voice channels can be configured before or after cable connection. E&M voice channels and serial port connections require that you configure the interface first. Caution: Configure the E&M interface type before you connect the voice ports. Otherwise, the interface card could be damaged. Refer to page 73 for instructions. To configure all parameters and options on the SDM-9585, refer to: Your network diagram. See Chapter 1, Planning the Network. The NetPerformer User Guide. Configuration details are provided in the NetPerformer System Reference Manual, which is included on the NetPerformer Documentation CD. Once you have configured the serial port parameters you can connect the cables from these ports to the host, PU or Frame Relay devices. Activate a data connection by bringing up the connected user equipment. Activate a voice connection by dialing a speed dial number to place a call. Check the status of the SDM-9585, its connections and all active channels, ports, PUs, PVCs and SVCs by executing the statistics commands (refer to the NetPerformer System Reference Manual for details). Note: Refer to Cables on page 58 for information on the correct cables to use for the various interfaces available on the unit.

Installing the EMI Filter (Ferrite)

You should install a ferrite on each RJ-45 UTP cable (Ethernet) and RJ48 telephone cable (E1-120) that is connected to an SDM-9585 card. These ferrites are used to ensure compliance of the SDM-9585 UAC to the EMI international standard. One ferrite is included in the shipping carton for each port that requires a cable installed with a ferrite: For E1-120 ports: Steward ferrite 28A2024-0A0, 2 per E1-120 interface card For Ethernet ports: Steward ferrite 28A2029-0A0, 2 per SDM-9230 unit. To install a ferrite: Wrap the UTP or telephone cable around the ferrite one time. Allow no more than three inches (one inch is ideal) between the wrap and the RJ-45 or RJ-48 connector that plugs into the system.

Ports
Each expansion card has 4 ports (refer to Figure 23): 2 input ports, labeled IN. We will refer to the upper port as IN A and the lower port as IN B. 2 output ports, labeled OUT. In this document the upper port is called OUT A and the lower port is called OUT B. Each pair of ports shares the same set of wiring. Under most operating conditions only one port of the pair should be used. For daisy chaining purposes you can connect Port IN A on one rack to Port OUT A on another rack.
86
Verso Technologies
Ports IN B and OUT B are used when you want to insert or bypass a rack in the middle of the daisy chain. For details, refer to the sections Adding a Rack on page 92 and Removing a Rack on page 93. For further information on connecting the racks refer to Planning the Expansion Card Connections on page 88.
LED Indicators
There are two types of LEDs on the expansion card: LED indicators for expansion card status. These LEDs are located near the top of the front face of the expansion card. They are visible only when lit. PWR: This LED goes on when the SDM-9500 rack is powered on and at least one data or voice card has been installed in the rack. ERR: This LED goes on when a line error is detected by any card in the SDM-9500 rack. To turn it off, examine the DIAG LEDs on the SDM-9585 cards and execute the CE (Clear ERR/DIAG LED) command on the card that detected the problem. LED indicators for the ports. These LEDs confirm a physical connection between two racks using a high speed serial bus cable. Each port LED is located directly above the port to which it refers. IN: This LED goes on when a connection is made to a port OUT on another rack. OUT: This LED goes on when a connection is made to a port IN on another rack.
Alarm Relay
The expansion card is equipped with a relay than can be used to connect the card to an external alarm device, such as a buzzer or light. This relay is labeled ALARM on the front face of the expansion card (see Figure 23). The alarm contact is normally open (N.O.) when no error has occurred. The external alarm is activated when the expansion card ERR LED goes on. To install an alarm device that indicates an error: 1. Attach the positive terminal of the alarm device to the N.O. post on the expansion card. 2. Attach the negative terminal to the Common (COMM) post. If the ERR LED goes on, the relay will be activated and the circuit to the attached alarm device will close, which activates the alarm.
87
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
You may prefer to activate an alarm when the current stops. For example, you could install a light to indicate that the rack is operating normally. To install an alarm device that indicates normal operation: 1. Attach the positive terminal of the alarm device to the Normally Closed (N.C.) post. 2. Attach the negative terminal to the COMM post. The alarm device will go off if an error occurs on the expansion card.
Installation
Installing the expansion card involves the following: Planning all required rack connections Installing the expansion card(s) Installing the cables. Note: The SDM-9500 chassis does not need to be powered down when installing the expansion card or its connecting cables.
Planning the Expansion Card Connections

To determine how to connect your racks: 1. Make sure you have a sufficient number of racks, expansion cards, high speed serial bus cables and cable brackets for your installation: Each rack can contain up to 4 SDM-9585 cards and 1 expansion card. You must have one expansion card for each rack that will be daisy chained to another rack. To determine the number of cables required, subtract 1 from the total number of racks that will be daisy chained together. For example, to stack 4 racks you need 3 cables. You should have two cable brackets for each high speed serial bus cable. Contact your vendor if more expansion cards, cables or brackets are required. Note: It is a good idea to have at least one extra cable on hand to permit bypassing a rack, when required. 2. To daisy chain the racks, you must connect a high speed serial bus cable between an IN port on one rack and an OUT port on another rack. The first rack in the chain will connect to the second, the second to the third and so on. Refer to Figure 24, and Installing a Cable on page 90.
88
Verso Technologies
3. The way the racks are connected to each other can be modified at a later time. You can: Bypass a rack and remove it from the chain. See Removing a Rack on page 93. Insert a new rack in the daisy chain. See Adding a Rack on page 92. Power down a rack without affecting communications between the other racks in the chain. For example, if Rack #2 on the left side of Figure 24 is powered down, Rack #1 can still communicate with Rack #3 via the expansion card on Rack #2.
Figure 24
Correct and Incorrect Daisy Chain Connections
Installing the Expansion Card

To install an expansion card in the SDM-9500 chassis: 1. Hold the card with its front plate facing you, and insert it into the 9th card slot on the rackmount chassis, labelled EXPANSION. This slot is located immediately to the left of the power supply module. 2. Slide the card all the way to the back of the rack, so that the connectors at the rear of the card engage properly with the backplane. To ensure that the connectors are fully engaged, give the card a slight push at the end.
89
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
3. Screw the expansion card into place on the rackmount chassis at the top and bottom of the front plate of the card. Refer to Figure 23, Front Face of Expansion Card, on page 86. Note: Torque on the screws should be no more than 6 in-lbs. 4. Continue in the same way for all other expansion cards that you want to install in other racks at your site. Note: You must install an expansion card in each rack that will be daisy chained to another rack.
Installing a Cable
When installing a cable between two racks you must: Attach a cable bracket over the connector sheath at each end of the cable Connect the cable to the IN port of one rack and the OUT port of another rack. Attaching the Bracket There is only one way that the bracket can be installed on the cable connector. The bracket opening has a flat side, which fits onto the flat side of the connector sheath. To attach the cable bracket: 1. Hold the bracket in one hand so that the screw holes are farthest away from you, and the flat side of the bracket opening is on the right. Refer to Figure 25. 2. Hold the cable in the other hand so that the connector is pointing away from you, with the flat side of the connector sheath on the right and the rounded side on the left. Note the location of the groove around the connector sheath. 3. Slide the bracket over the connector sheath from right to left, so that the opening of the bracket inserts into the groove on the cable sheath. The flat side of the bracket opening should seat squarely against the flat side of the connector sheath.
90
Verso Technologies
Figure 25
Attaching the Bracket to the Cable Sheath
Connecting the Cable To connect the cable to the SDM-9500 chassis: 1. Connect one end of the cable (with bracket attached) to an IN port on one of the racks. See Planning the Expansion Card Connections on page 88 for instructions on proper daisy chain connections. We suggest that you use the upper port of the pair (port IN A) for normal cable connections. 2. Connect the other end of the cable (with bracket attached) to an OUT port on the rack you want to add to the daisy chain. We suggest that you use the upper port of the pair (port OUT A) for normal cable connections. Caution: Do not create a loop between two racks. This would occur, for example, if you connected IN A on Rack #1 with OUT A on Rack #2, and OUT A on Rack #1 with IN A on Rack #2 (see Figure 24). If a loop is created, critical communication problems will result. 3. Screw the cable brackets into place on the front face of the expansion card.
Removing a Cable
To remove a cable that connects two racks: 1. Remove the screws that secure the cable brackets onto the front face of the expansion card. 2. Pull the cable and its attached bracket off the port. 3. (Optional) Slide the bracket off the cable sheath, if desired.
91
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
Rack ID
To ensure proper data and voice transmissions between all cards on all racks in the daisy chain, you must configure the Rack ID parameter on each participating SDM-9585 card. By default, Rack ID is set to 1 on all cards. To set this parameter from the console or via Telnet: 1. Access the SDM-9585 card following the procedure given in the section Connecting the Console Terminal on page 82. 2. Enter SE at the command line to access the Setup menu, 3. Enter GLOBAL to access the Global Setup menu, 4. Enter carriage returns until you reach the prompt Rack ID. Valid parameter values are 0 to 4. Use 0 to leave the rack ID undetermined, for example, when only one chassis is installed at a particular site. All cards in a rack must be set to the same rack ID. Note: You can use whatever numbering convention you like for the rack ID. However, we suggest that you number a daisy chained series of racks from top to bottom or from left to right, to ensure consistency at all sites in your network. Once the SDM-9500 rackmount chassis are daisy chained together and all participating cards are properly configured, data is immediately exchanged between all racks in the chain. No manual intervention is required for normal operations. However, you may want to change your installation at a later time by either adding or removing an SDM-9500 rack from the chain.
Adding a Rack
To insert a rack in the middle of the chain: 1. Move the new rack into its position without disconnecting any of the cables between currently installed racks. For example, in Figure 26, we have moved Rack #2 into position between Rack #1 and Rack #3. Rack #1 is currently connected to Rack #3 with a cable between Rack #1 port OUT A and Rack #3 port IN A. Caution: Rack #2 should be powered OFF to avoid creating a loop during this procedure. To ensure uninterrupted transmissions between Rack #1 and Rack #3, leave them powered ON. 2. Connect a second high speed serial bus cable between Rack #1 port OUT B and Rack #2 port IN B. This cable is indicated with a dotted line in Figure 26.
92
Verso Technologies
3. Connect a third cable between Rack #2 port OUT B and Rack #3 port IN B. This cable is also indicated with a dotted line. 4. Now disconnect the cable between Rack #1 port OUT A and Rack #3 port IN A. This cable is indicated with a solid line. Even though Rack #2 is powered off, Rack #1 and Rack #3 still remain in communication. 5. Power up Rack #2 to bring it into the daisy chain.
Figure 26
Adding a Rack to the Middle of the Daisy Chain
Removing a Rack
To remove a rack from the beginning or end of the daisy chain: Simply disconnect the high speed serial bus cable from the expansion card port. To bypass a rack and remove it from the middle of the chain: 1. Power down Rack #2 (see Figure 27) to avoid creating a loop during this procedure. Rack #1 and Rack #3 remain in communication via the expansion card on Rack #2.
93
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
2. Connect a new cable between Rack #1 port OUT B and Rack #3 port IN B. This cable is indicated with a dotted line in Figure 27. 3. Disconnect the cable between Rack #1 port OUT A and Rack #2 port IN A. 4. Disconnect the cable between Rack #2 port OUT A and Rack #3 port IN A. 5. At this point Rack #2 is completely isolated from the daisy chain, and can be moved to a new location, if desired.
Figure 27
Removing a Rack from the Middle of the Daisy Chain
Note: To return Rack #2 to the daisy chain, the simplest method is to connect a cable between Rack #1 port OUT A and Rack #2 port IN A, or between Rack #2 Port OUT A and Rack #3 Port IN A. The former connection adds Rack #2 to the beginning of the chain, whereas the latter adds Rack #2 to the end of the chain.

When PBX-to-PBX E&M tie trunks are installed, the E lead of one PBX is normally crossed over and connected to the M lead of the other PBX, and vice versa. See the first connection scenario in Figure 30, Four-wire E&M Connections, on page 99. In a multiplexing application the crossover is accomplished digitally. Therefore, when connecting an analog PBX to the E&M interface card, the E and M leads of the PBX connect to the E and M leads of the analog voice port straight through, without crossing.

E&M Signaling Types

The SDM-9585 card supports three E&M signaling standards for PBX tie line interfaces: Types I, II, and V. These conventions, as defined by AT&T specifications, are described below. To change the current setting of the E&M Type on the E&M interface card, refer to the procedure Signaling Type on E&M Interface Card on page 73. The default E&M Type setting is Type I. With each signaling type, the PBX supplies one signal, known as the M signal (for Mouth), and accepts one signal, known as the E signal (for Ear). Conversely, the tie line equipment (for example, the SDM-9585) accepts the M signal from the PBX and provides the E signal to the PBX. The M signal accepted by the tie line equipment at one end of a tie circuit becomes the E signal that is output by the remote tie line interface.

E&M Signaling Types Supported by the SDM-9585
The illustrations in Figure 32 have been abstracted from the specifications in order to show the essential components of the signaling circuitry. Each one shows the PBX E&M interface on the left, and the corresponding tie line equipment interface (such as the SDM9585 voice port) on the right. The symbol V refers to battery voltage, which in a standard circuit is usually (nominally) -48 Vdc.
Type I
Type I is the simplest E&M interface and the preferred interface for electromechanical systems. It may still be found on some old private exchange systems. E&M interface cards are strapped at the factory for E&M Type I. E&M Type I has: 2-wire E&M leads for signaling purposes Ground detection via the E lead Battery detection via the M lead. The tie line equipment generates the E signal to the PBX by grounding the E lead. The PBX detects the E signal by sensing the increase in current through a resistive load.
101
Doc. No. 620-0210-001
Note: This is indicated in Figure 32 by the unconnected node branching from the right side of the E resistor. Similarly, the PBX generates the M signal by sourcing a current to the tie line equipment, which detects it via a resistive load. A Type I interface requires that the PBX and tie line equipment share a common signaling ground reference. The return is accomplished through common grounds, for example, using a ground screw to suit the application. Refer to E&M Grounding Considerations on page 103.
Type II
E&M Type II is a 4-wire, fully looped arrangement, and the preferred signaling type for trunk circuits in electronic switching environments. It provides noise immunity through a loop-and-return for both ground detection (on the E lead) and battery detection (on the M lead). The Type II interface requires no common ground; instead, each of the two signals has its own return. For the E signal, the tie line equipment permits a current flow from the PBX; the current returns to the ground reference of the PBX. Similarly, the PBX closes a path for current to generate the M signal to the tie line equipment.
Type V
Type V is a simplified version of Type IV, used for customer applications with limited distance requirements. It is characterized by: A symmetric interface, using only two wires Detects ground on the M lead Does not detect battery. With a Type V interface, each side closes a current loop to signal. The flow of current is detected via a resistive load to indicate the presence of the signal. Type V requires a common ground between the PBX and the tie line equipment, provided via the SG leads.

E&M Grounding Considerations

Proper grounding is essential for correct operation of telephone equipment in E&M applications. E&M signaling works by applying DC voltages to the E and M leads for connecting and disconnecting. Without a proper ground, the DC voltages do not have a common point of reference, which can result in unintended or sporadic signaling. To avoid grounding problems, ensure that your installation respects the following conditions: Check the distance between the PBX and the system. If the two are not within close proximity, then their AC grounds may not be the same. If the SDM-9500 unit and the PBX are in the same room, it is likely that they share the same AC ground. In an E&M application, the common ground must be the Telco/PTT ground. This ensures that the ground potential of the PBX telephone interface and the SDM-9500 telephone interface are the same. Based on the above conditions, grounding may be established directly or indirectly. Direct Method: Connect a grounding wire between the Telco/PTT interfaces on the PBX and the SDM-9585. Connect the ground wire from the PBX to pin 8 (SG) of the RJ45 connector on the E&M interface card. This will establish the same ground potential at both interfaces. Indirect Method: If direct grounding is not possible or practical, establish an indirect ground. Make sure the Telco/PTT grounds of the PBX and the SDM-9585 are connected to their respective AC grounds. Check with the PBX manufacturer for information on how to connect the PBX AC ground to the Telco/PTT ground. The AC grounds of the two devices must be at the same potential, which is usually the case when they are located in close proximity. Caution: Connecting the AC ground to the Telco/PTT ground on telephone equipment may violate the rules of certain regulatory agencies. For complete grounding regulations, please check with your local telephone company and/or agency.
