Chapter 4 Installing a Cisco 6160 Without a POTS Splitter Configuration
Installation Procedures
4.2.11.2 OC-3c Network Connections
Complete the following steps to connect the OC-3c network connections:
Warning
Do not stare into the beam or view it directly with optical instruments.
Step 1 Verify that the OC-3c/OC-3c or OC-3c/2DS3 NI-2 card is installed in slot 10 (or slot 11, if a secondary
NI-2 card is being installed for redundancy) of the Cisco 6160 chassis to ensure that the OC-3c NI-2
connections are active.
Note See the “Redundancy in Subtended Configurations” section on page 1-42 for more information
about redundancy configurations.
Step 2 Attach the receive cable from the ATM switch to the TRNK 1 TX optical interface connector on the
OC-3c/OC-3c or OC-3c/2DS3 NI-2 card.
Note See Figure 1-16 or Figure 1-17 or OC-3c connector locations.
Step 3 Attach the transmit cable from the ATM switch to the TRNK 1 RX optical interface connector on the
OC-3c/OC-3c or OC-3c/2DS3 NI-2 card.
Step 4 To establish APS link redundancy repeat Step 2 and Step 3 for a secondary OC-3c/OC-3c or
OC-3c/2DS3 NI-2 card.
Step 5 Reboot the system to reassociate the system MAC address.
Step 6 Repeat Step 1 through Step 5 for each Cisco 6160 chassis being installed.
4.2.11.3 T1 or T1 IMA Network Connections
Complete the following steps to connect the T1 or T1 IMA network connections:
Note See the “IMA Configuration” section on page 1-5 for more information on how to configure an IMA
network connection.
Step 1 Verify that you have a DS3+T1/E1 IMA NI-2 card is installed in slot 10 (or slot 11, if a secondary NI-2
card is installed for redundancy) and the DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card is installed on the chassis
backplane.
Note See the “Redundancy in Subtended Configurations” section on page 1-42 for more information
about redundant configurations.
Step 2 Connect one end of an RJ-48 cable to one of the RJ-48c receptacles on the DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O
card. If you have a subtended network configuration installed, this connection must be made from the
DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card in the subtending host chassis.
