8. Install the power supplies in carrier A.
9. Install the power supplies in carrier B.
Installing IPSI and maintenance circuit packs
If this PN does not contain an IPSI, install the tone clock and the maintenance circuit packs, as
required. Then continue with Installing Expansion Interface circuit packs
on page 785.
If this PN contains one or two IPSIs, reinstall the IPSIs and the ribbon cables as you did before.
For the procedures, see Duplex reliability configuration
on page 779 and High-reliability or
critical-reliability configuration on page 782.
Although you can use ICCs for connectivity (ICCC and ICCD) for consistency, just use the
ribbons on the front.
Connecting the CAT5 cables to the IPSI circuit packs
For a connectivity guide, see Quick Start for Hardware Installation: Avaya S8700 Series Media
Server (555-245-703) and the job aid titled Cabling Guide — MCC1 and SCC1 Media Gateway
(555-245-771).
To connect the CAT 5 cables to the IPSI circuit packs:
● Connect the Green CAT5 cable to the IPSI in the A carrier.
Installing Expansion Interface circuit packs
Note:
Note: If the existing PPN has a TN570 Expansion Interface circuit packs, you must
replace them with a TN570B, vintage 7, or higher circuit pack.
If this system is to be used with an Enterprise Survivable Server (ESS), replace the
TN570 Expansion Interface circuit packs with a TN570D or later Expansion Interface
circuit pack.
To install the Expansion Interface circuit packs:
1. Remove the existing circuit pack and place in an antistatic container.
2. Insert the TN570B, vintage 7, or higher EI circuit packs into the EXPN INTFC slots (A01,
B02).
