Connecting Power to the Unit

If your package includes a power pack:

Plug the power pack into an ac outlet

having a nominal voltage rating between 100–240 Vac. Connect the output cable

of the power pack to the connector marked POWER on the rear panel.

If your package includes a direct-connection +24 Vdc power cable:

Connect the

unit to an external dc power source as described in

Connecting the Unit to an

Optional External +24 Vdc Power Source

If you will use a –48 Vdc power supply:

Connect the unit to an external –48 Vdc

power source as described in the documentation shipped with the power supply

and power cable.

Optional Power Sources

Using the optional dc power cable, the unit is capable of operating on either a

+24 Vdc power source, –48 Vdc single source battery, or –48 Vdc redundant

source batteries (for power backup).

Connecting the Unit to an Optional External +24 Vdc Power Source

Using the dc power cable, the Hotwire 7976 Standalone Termination Unit is

capable of operating on a +24 Vdc power supply.

Procedure

To use the dc power cable:

1. Connect the green wire to a suitable ground.

2. Connect the orange wire to the +24 Vdc source.

3. Connect the white wire to the return.

4. Cut the black, red, and blue wires off at the outer insulation.

5. Plug the power connector into the 7976 Standalone Termination Unit.

Connecting to the Network

Procedure

To connect your unit to the network:

1. Connect one end of the supplied network cable into the rear panel DSL jack.

2. Connect the other end to your DSL network interface.

NOTE:

not

use a flat VF network cable as this may severely degrade the

performance of the termination unit. Use only Cat 5 twisted-pair network

cable.

Connecting to a DTE

The G.703 interface is either two BNC connectors (Transmit and Receive) for a

75-ohm unbalanced interface or an RJ48C, 8-position, unkeyed modular

connector for a 120-ohm balanced interface. See

Cables and Pin Assignments

the User’s Guide for specifications of the 120-ohm connector and cable.

Connecting to a System Terminal

An optional system maintenance terminal may be attached to your Hotwire

7976 Standalone Termination Unit through the modular jack on the rear panel.

The system maintenance terminal allows you to view the status of the unit, and

change configuration options. The terminal must be a VT100-compatible terminal

or a PC running terminal emulation software.

Procedure

To connect your unit to a system terminal:

1. Connect the 9-pin end of the terminal cable into a COM port on your PC.

2. Plug the other end into the modular jack on the rear panel.

3. Set the communication parameters on your PC or terminal to:

— 9600 baud

— 8 bit characters

— no parity

— 1 stop bit

— no flow control

Network Configuration

The following illustration shows several configurations including a network

application using a 4-port Hotwire 8776 M/SDSL Termination Unit in a central

office (CO). In this configuration, a frame relay switch and a router are

connected, through the termination unit, to partner units supporting a host or

router, and frame relay encapsulated or unframed data.

This figure also shows a standalone-to-standalone configuration using either

another Hotwire 7976 M/SDSL standalone unit with a G.703 interface or a

Hotwire 7975 M/SDSL standalone unit with an EIA-530A interface.

In a DSLAM-to-standalone configuration:

The devices synchronize without altering factory defaults, since the CO unit

defaults to LTU mode, and the CP unit defaults to NTU mode.

In a standalone-to-standalone configuration:

One unit must be changed to run in LTU mode, since standalone units have

a factory default setting of NTU mode.

In both cases the clocking source may have to be altered depending on network

requirements.

Choosing a Configuration Mode

You can make configuration changes either through a VT100-compatible terminal

and the unit’s Configuration menus or by manually changing switches on the

board. The unit comes configured to allow settings to be made through the

Configuration menus.

Configuring the Unit Using the Configuration Menus

Use the Configuration menu to select, display, or change configuration option

settings.

NOTE:

The 7976 Standalone Termination Unit is configured by default as an NTU. If

you are using this unit as an NTU, configuration options may not need to be

changed.

The 7976 Standalone Termination Unit has two sets of configuration option

settings:

The Current Configuration (the 7976 Standalone Termination Unit’s active set

of configuration options)

The Default Factory Configuration (a read-only configuration area containing

the factory default configuration options)

To display configuration options, you must first load a configuration into the edit

area. To load a configuration option set into the configuration edit area, follow this

menu selection sequence:
