Hotwire 8784 TDM SDSL Termination Unit

The Hotwirer8784 Termination Unit is a circuit card assembly that contains two

Time Division Multiplexer Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (TDM SDSL) ports

and a DSX-1 interface. When the Hotwire 8784 TDM SDSL Termination Unit is

used in a Hotwire 8600 or 8800 Series Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer

(DSLAM) chassis, it transports up to 1544 kbps signals over traditional

twisted-pair telephone wiring.

!HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR

STATIC-SENSITIVE DEVICES

This product is designed to protect sensitive components from damage

due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during normal operation. When

performing installation procedures, however, take proper static control

precautions to prevent damage to equipment. If you are not sure of the

proper static control precautions, contact your nearest sales or service

representative.

HConnecting to the DTE.

HConnecting to an MDF.

HProviding initial unit identity information or changing existing identity

information.

HConfiguring your unit using the Configuration Edit menus.

Before you install the unit, read the Important Safety Instructions on page 17.

Be sure to register your warranty at www.paradyne.com/warranty.

Planning the Installation

Review the following list to help plan for the installation.

-Obtain the applicable cables; refer to Cables You Need on page 3.

-Make sure the Hotwire DSLAM chassis is installed and power is supplied to

the chassis.

-After the Hotwire 8784 Termination Unit is installed, there are configuration

procedures that must be performed before you can begin to use the

termination unit. Refer to the Hotwire 8784 TDM SDSL Unit, with DSX-1

Interface, User’s Guide for more detailed configuration procedures.

Cables You Need

The following standard cables are used with this product.

For the network connection:

HPlug-ended Telco 50-pin cable for connection from the Hotwire 8600 Series

DSLAM LINE port or one of the Hotwire 8800 Series DSLAM LINES ports to

the Main Distribution Frame (MDF) or other demarcation point.

For the DTE connection:

HThe 50-position plug to two 8-position unkeyed modular jacks. (Paradyne

Feature No. 8700-F1-505 can be used. Ignore Jacks 3 and 4.)

For more information refer to Connector Pin Assignments in the User’s Guide,

and the appropriate DSLAM installation document.

Installing TDM SDSL Cards

A Hotwire 8784 TDM SDSL Termination Unit can be installed, removed, and

replaced without disrupting service to the other cards in the chassis.

"Procedure

To install the unit:

1. Determine in which slot the unit will be installed. Verify that cards in adjacent

slots have been fastened.

2. Remove the filler plate from the installation slot and store for possible later

use.

3. Insert the unit:

—For a Hotwire 8600 Series DSLAM chassis – Hold the unit horizontally,

with the component side facing up, and insert it into the left and right card

guides.

—For a Hotwire 8800 Series DSLAM chassis –Hold the unit vertically,

with the component side facing right, and insert it into the top and bottom

card guides.

4. Slide the unit into the slot until the power and network connectors seat firmly

in the mating connectors on the backplane.

CAUTION:

Do not force the unit into the slot. This could damage the backplane

connectors. If the card does not seat properly, remove the card and

reinstall it. If it still does not seat properly, call your service

representative.

The termination unit performs a power-on self-test. All of the LEDs turn ON

and OFF briefly. When the self-test is completed successfully, the SYSTEM

OK LED begins to pulse.

5. If the LED is not pulsing, refer to Messages and Troubleshooting in the User’s

Guide.

6. Secure the unit by fastening the screws at each end of the faceplate.

Connecting to the DTE

Connection to the two ports of the Hotwire 8784 TDM SDSL Termination Unit is

through the 50-pin interface connector on its faceplate. Refer to Connector Pin

Assignments in the User’s Guide.

"Procedure

To connect the Hotwire 8784 Termination Unit to your DTE:

1. Connect the 50-position connector of the cable to the connector on the

faceplate of the unit. Align one end of the cable connector with the card

connector, then push on the cable connector until it seats.

2. Feed the cable through the Cable Guide if it is installed. When all cables are

installed, anchor them with cable ties to the rack, DSLAM, or Cable Guide.

3. Connect the two terminating connectors to your DTE or DTEs.

Connecting to an MDF

You can connect the Hotwire DSLAM chassis containing the Hotwire 8784 TDM

SDSL Termination Unit to an MDF or other demarcation point. Do not connect it

to a POTS splitter.

"Procedure

To connect the Hotwire DSLAM chassis containing the unit to an MDF:

1. Plug the Telco 50-pin cable into the appropriate LINE port on the chassis.

2. Replace the longer Telco cable captive screw with a shorter connector

captive screw, which is provided with the Hotwire DSLAM chassis.

3. Insert a cable tie (provided with Hotwire DSLAM chassis) through the tie

mount to hold the Telco 50-pin connector in place. If more than one Telco

cable is being connected, span the two or three connectors.

4. Make sure the other end is connected to the appropriate MDF or demarcation

point.

Refer to Connector Pin Assignments in the User’s Guide for pinouts.

NOTE:

If you are connecting the Telco 25-pair, 50-pin cable to an MDF, a converter

may be necessary for terminating the other end of the cable on a punchdown

block before cross-connecting to an MDF.
