A matrix only requires one rear-panel CPU card, because whichever of the two
front-installed CPU cards is acting as master will work in conjunction with this
card. All other front cards, however, require their own rear-connector panel.
Note: For detailed information about connecting the matrix to panels, interfaces and
other devices, see 4 Installing the Eclipse HX-Median.
5.8.3 Connecting interface cards
Each rear-connector panel associated with an MVX-A16 (analog) interface card
holds the sixteen RJ-45 connectors that connect the matrix to user panels,
interface modules and other intercom devices. Each front-installed MVX-A16 port
card requires a corresponding rear-connector panel. Blank panels cover unused
slots.
Each port on the matrix can be located and identified by using the rear-panel
numbering grid:
Port rows are numbered 1 through 16.
Port columns are numbered 1 through 7.
CPU card columns are numbered P1 and P2. (One rear panel operates
with either of the currently active CPU cards).
Note: A port can be identified precisely by identifying its card number and port number
on the card. For example, the ports on the first card are designated 1-1, 1-2, 1-
3, 1-4, and so on; the ports on the second card are designated 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-
4, and so on.
Note: See also 4.4.6 Analog port numbering.
Each rear connector panel associated with an E-QUE interface holds eleven RJ-
45 ports:
Eight ports for connection to wireless equipment.
Two ports for DECT sync.
One port for LAN connections.
Each rear connector panel associated with an IVC-32 interface holds eleven RJ-
45 ports:
Eight ports for connection to E1/T1 equipment (not used).
Two ports for DECT sync (not used).
One port for LAN connections, used for IP-enabled V-Series panels and
Concert soft-panels.
Each rear connector panel associated with an LMC-64 interface holds eleven RJ-
45 ports:
