About this document
Contact your system supplier or your Nortel Networks representative to
verify that the hardware and software described are supported in your area.
Remember the following:
• ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI) trunking is not available in North
America.
• The Basic Rate Signaling Concentrator (BRSC) is not supported on
CS 1000M Cabinet.
• The integrated Meridian 1 Packet Handler is not supported on CS 1000M
Cabinet.
Subject
This document contains the following information:
• ISDN BRI hardware installation instructions for all systems
• Description of acceptance testing of ISDN BRI services for Large
Systems, Small Systems, and CS 1000S systems.
— how to visually inspect ISDN BRI equipment for possible improper
installation
— how to interpret visual indicators on ISDN BRI cards
— how to test basic ISDN BRI features and verify traffic reporting
Note: The craftsperson conducts acceptance testing after the equipment
is installed and configured. This is done to verify that the system is
operating correctly and ISDN BRI functions and features work as
specified.

System migration
When particular Meridian 1 systems are upgraded to run CS 1000 Release 4.0
software and configured to include a Signaling Server, they become
CS 1000M systems. Table 1 lists each Meridian 1 system that supports an
upgrade path to a CS 1000M system.
For more information, see one or more of the following NTPs:
•Communication Server 1000M and Meridian 1: Small System Upgrade
Procedures (553-3011-258)
•Communication Server 1000M and Meridian 1: Large System Upgrade
Procedures (553-3021-258)
•Communication Server 1000S: Upgrade Procedures (553-3031-258)
Intended audience
This document is intended for individuals responsible for the planning,
engineering, and administration of the applicable system.
