• RADIUS CDR transmission
Oracle Acme Packet recommend that you use shielded CAT5e or CAT6 Ethernet
cables with RJ45 plugs for connecting to the rear-panel Acme Packet 6300/6350
Ethernet interfaces. These Ethernet interfaces have a distance limitation of 328 feet
(100 m) as defined by the FAST Ethernet standard, IEEE 802.3.
Signaling and Media Interfaces
The signaling and media interfaces provide network connectivity for signaling and
media traffic. Each interface can connect to a network at 10-Gigabit speeds.
Network Interface Units (NIUs) are available in the following configurations:
• 2-port 10GbE NIU
• 4-port 10GbE NIU
The optical 10GbE cards can accept an LC fiber connector using either single mode or
multimode cable.
Mixed transceiver types are not supported on SFP+-based NIUs because compliance
testing shows that the NIU SFP+ ports must be populated with identical SFP+ types.
The Acme Packet 6350 supports the 4x10GbE NIU to provide greater session scaling
and Packet Processing Module (PPM) support. The 4x10GbE NIU contains two
Cavium 78xx chips running in parallel, and each one is attached to two 10GbE media
interfaces. Each chip contains 64GB of DDR4 RAM. The increase in DDR4 RAM
enables greater scaling capacity, and the use of DDR4 running at 1050MHz provides a
memory performance boost.
Note:
When using the 4x10GbE NIU, you must put it in slot 0.
Power Components
Acme Packet offers AC or DC power options for the Acme Packet 6300/6350.
The power supplies are user-replaceable, hot swappable components. There are no
ON/OFF switches on the AC or DC power supplies.
Power supplies are accessed from the rear panel of the system chassis. The right
power supply is designated as power supply A, and the left power supply is designated
as power supply B.
