3.4.2 CM-5RB Combined Module and Line Redundancy Installation
To install line and module redundancy, perform these steps:
1. Set the switches on the module adapters (MAs).
2. Install the adapters in the first two adjacent slots in the shelf (Figure 3-1).

3. Connect these two MAs with the CA-202 shielded cable.
4. Insert the primary CM-5RB module in front of the primary MA (MA-235-1).
5. In the adjacent slot, insert the backup CM-5RB module (Figure 3-1) in front of the backup MA
(MA-235-2).
6. Enable the redundancy feature through the front panel control of the common module or by using
ISiCL commands (Section 4.8 ā CM-5RB Module & Line Redundancy). Figures 3-2 and 3-3 show
combination module and line redundant modules.
Note: Common modules are interchangeable; that is, a CM-5RB module can be either a primary or a
backup common module.
