Configuring Adapter Cards
A chassis slot and card type must be specified and provisioned before an adapter card can be
preprovisioned. A chassis slot is a physical slot designated with an MDA ID from 1 to 6. An
adapter card is provisioned when a type designated from the allowed adapter card types is
inserted. A preprovisioned adapter card slot can remain empty without conflicting with
populated slots.
The 7705 SAR-8 supports the following adapter cards:
• 16-port T1/E1 ASAP Adapter card
• 8-port Ethernet Adapter cards (version 1 and version 2)
• 4-port OC3/STM1 Clear Channel Adapter card
The 7705 SAR-8 supports up to six adapter cards: any combination of T1/E1 ASAP Adapter
cards, Ethernet Adapter cards, or OC3/STM1 Clear Channel Adapter cards. These cards may
be installed in the chassis in any combination that does not exceed the supported number.
Once installed and enabled, the system verifies that the installed adapter card type matches
the configured parameters. If the parameters do not match, the adapter card remains offline.
On the CLI, the adapter cards are referred to as MDAs. The adapter card is identified using
the format slot/mda, where slot identifies the IOM card slot ID (always 1) and mda identifies
the physical slot in the chassis for the adapter card; for example, 1/5.
The 7705 SAR-F has a fixed physical configuration that includes T1/E1 and Ethernet ports
based on the 16-port T1/E1 ASAP Adapter card and the 8-port Ethernet Adapter card
(version 2). These cards do not need to be provisioned in order to provision the T1/E1 and
Ethernet ports.
The following output displays the administrative and operational states of all cards in the
7705 SAR-8 chassis. A similar output for the 7705 SAR-F is also shown.
