AR700 Series Routers

All AR700 Series routers include Ethernet ports, asynchronous ports, and PIC bays; the AR750S, AR750S-DP and AR770S also have switch ports. PIC bays add expansion flexibility by allowing the installation of PIC cards, which are available with additional interfaces, such as ISDN (PRI E1/T1, BRI S/T), synchronous, or asynchronous ports. The AT-AR745 routers also have an expansion bay to accommodate a Network Service Module (NSM), which either directly provides further interfaces, or provides multiple slots where additional PIC interfaces can be added.

The AR725 and AR745 routers have a dedicated PCI Accelerator Card (PAC) slot that accommodates special purpose PAC coprocessor cards. PAC cards provide additional functionality or performance, such as compression or encryption, through a high performance PCI bus, but do not add extra interfaces. The AR750S and the AR750S-DP have built-in high performance encryption processing.

AR700 Series models are distinguished by the number and types of ports and presence or absence of an NSM bay and/or PCI Accelerator Card (PAC) slot.

Safety Safety information and instructions outlining how to connect an ATAR725-80 to a DC power supply can be found in the AR700 Series Router Installation and Safety Guide. You should read these instructions before attempting to connect the router to a DC power supply.

Caution Some interfaces that may be installed in the router are not

transformer isolated. This means they will be referenced to the frame ground of the equipment and may be damaged if connected to an interface on another piece of equipment which is at a different ground potential.

AC models of the AT-AR725 can be used in conjunction with the AR740 RPS. Each AR740 RPS can provide power supply and mains circuit redundancy for up to two AT-AR725s or AT-AR745s. For more information on the AR740 RPS, see “AR740 RPS Redundant Power Supply (AT-AR725, AT-AR745 only)” on

page 43.

PIC bays and NSM

bay

The AT-AR745 chassis has two PIC bays. A further four PIC bays can be added if an AT-AR040 NSM is installed in the NSM bay.

The NSM bay allows one NSM to be installed in the chassis. NSMs either have fixed ports (e.g., AT-AR041 and AT-AR042 BRI S/T NSMs) or PIC bays (e.g., the AT-AR040 4 PIC NSM). For detailed information on NSMs, see the Network Service Module Hardware Reference.

The PIC bays and the 4-PIC NSM can accommodate combinations of the following PICs (with a maximum of two E1/T1/PRI cards):

■ AT-AR020 PRI E1/T1 PIC, one primary rate E1/T1 port

■ AT-AR021(S) BRI-S/T PIC, one basic rate ISDN S/T port

■ AT-AR021(U) BRI-U PIC, one basic rate ISDN U port

■ AT-AR023 SYN PIC, one synchronous port with universal 50-way

AMPLIMITE connector

■ AT-AR024 ASYN4 PIC, four asynchronous ports with RJ-45 connectors

■ AT-AR027 VoIP-FXS PIC, two Foreign Exchange Subscriber (FXS) ports

with RJ-11 connectors

Recommendation AT-AR022 ETH PICs and AT-AR026 4ETH PICs are not recommended for use in NSM PIC bays, as performance of these interfaces is likely to be reduced and packet loss may occur. When used with an AR745 router, ETH PICs should be installed in the router’s PIC bay 0 or PIC bay 1.

Asynchronous Ports The two asynchronous serial ports can be used as general purpose ports for

terminals, printers or modems. They are effectively identical and can be independently configured. The default communications settings are:

• 9600 bps

• 8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•no parity

• hardware flow control

PAC Slot AT-AR745 routers have a single PAC slot inside the chassis. When installed,

Caution PACs should only be installed by authorised service

personnel. Unauthorised opening of the router lid may cause danger of injury from electric shock, damage to the router, and invalidation of the product warranty.

The AT-AR745 router automatically monitors its own power supply and fan, and has the option of a redundant power supply. If a redundant power supply (RPS) is attached, the AT-AR745 software can detect the presence of the RPS and the state of its output voltages and fan. RPS monitoring, turned off by default, can be turned on or off using the command:

set system rpsmonitor={on|off}

C613-03087-00 Rev E

The show system command displays the state of the main power supply and fan, and whether or not the RPS is being monitored. If RPS monitoring is enabled, it also shows whether an RPS is connected, and the state of its output voltage and fan.

When a fault occurs in the main power supply or fan, system LEDs on the AT-AR745’s front and back panels are flashed in a pattern that identifies the fault. If RPS monitoring is enabled, the system LEDs also flash to indicate failures in the RPS connection, power supply or fan. Multiple faults are indicated by cycling through each error code.

Asynchronous port The asynchronous serial port (ASYN0) provides a general purpose port for

terminals, printers or modems. The port is wired as a DTE (Table 9 on

page 50). The default communications settings are:

• 9600 bps

• 8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•no parity

• hardware flow control

PIC bays The AT-AR750S chassis has two PIC bays, which can accommodate

combinations of the following PICs:

■ AT-AR020 PRI E1/T1 PIC, one primary rate E1/T1 port.

■ AT-AR021(S) BRI-S/T PIC, one basic rate ISDN S/T port.

■ AT-AR023 SYN PIC, one synchronous port with universal 50-way

AMPLIMITE connector.

■ AT-AR024 ASYN4 PIC, four asynchronous ports with RJ-45 connectors.

Power Supply

The AT-AR750S has a universal AC input connector and a power switch on its rear panel. It operates with an input voltage in the range 100 VAC to 240 VAC.
