Introducing the Avaya BCM50 hardware
The Avaya Business Communications Manager 50 Release 6.0 (Avaya BCM50 6.0) provides
private network and telephony management capability to small- and medium-sized businesses.
The Avaya BCM50 system:
• integrates voice and data capabilities, IP Telephony gateway functions, and data-routing
features into a single telephony system
• provides telephony applications for use in a business environment
• provides a DHCP enhancement feature for the main units with integrated router
For information about the BCM50 hardware components:
• Main units on page 29
• BCM50 Expansion unit and media bay modules on page 35
• Avaya BCM50 hardware on page 46
• Avaya BCM50 components on page 49
• Field-replaceable units on page 53

Main units
The primary hardware component in the Avaya BCM50 system is the main unit. The six BCM50
main units are divided into two series: standard and basic rate interface (BRI). The BRI (or b)
series main units include BRI ports that replace the four analog lines (on the RJ-21 telephony
connector) on the standard series.
• Standard series
— BCM50 main unit (with Telephony only)
Note: The generic term “main unit,” used throughout this document, refers to any of the
six main units (BCM50, BCM50a, BCM50e, BCM50b, BCM50ba, and BCM50be)
available for an Avaya BCM50 system.
To indicate features specific to a particular variation of main unit, that variation of main
unit is clearly identified (for example, BCM50ba).
The Avaya BCM50 main unit provides call processing and simple data networking
functions. It provides connections for 12 digital telephones, 4 (PSTN) lines, 4 analog
station ports, and 4 connections for auxiliary equipment (auxiliary ringer, page relay, page
output, and music source). The BCM50 main unit has no router, but it has 4 LAN ports:
one is the OAM port for technicians, and the other three are for basic LAN connectivity.
See the figure BCM50 main unit ports and connectors on page 31.
