1 The Quad Basic Rate Module
1.1 Introduction
The Cyber Backup Quad Basic Rate Module (CBUQ BR) i s a singl e width
card for use i n either the CBU/14 or t he CBU/6 Shelf , otherwise known
as a ‘Shelf System’.
The CBUQBR connects to 4 basic rate ISDN l ines providi ng up to 8 ‘B’
channels for interfacing with other application cards in the FivemereCabletron Shel f S ystem. A Shelf System supports a single CBUQ BR or
a single CBUPRI but not both sim ult aneously. (P lease see section 5 for
the Glossary of Terms used in this manual).
Management i s provided v ia the Cyber Backup Generi c Shelf Manager
(CBUGSM) which forms a standard part of the Shelf System.
Local or rem ote access to the car ds in the shelf i s by password which is
entered on the first poll of the shelf. Al arm m essages from the cards i n
the shelf are routed to the alarm and/or command ports on the
CBUGSM.
For cards other than t he CBUQ BR used i n t he Shel f System , pl ease see
the relevant manual.
1.2 General Description
The CBUQBR comprises a front card and a rear interface card.

The Quad Basic Rate Module

The CBUQBR provides up to 8 x 64kbit/ s ‘B ’ channels, eac h channel c an
be switched to any ti me-slot on any of t he four 2.048 Mbit/s back plane
buses.
The CBUQBR will provide on demand indiv idual 64 kbit/s channels for
use by other application cards in the shelf . The other appl ication cards
are completely responsible for the provision of telephone numbers,
CLIDs, dial commands, timers, and call retry attempts.
Software download to the module is supported via the CBUGSM.
1.3 Shelf Power Loading
The CBUQBR requires the following current on the power rails:
+5V +12V -12V
300mA 5mA 5mA
When i nstalling cards int o either type of shelf , the instal lation engineer
must ensure that the shelf power supplies’ combined output can meet
both the overall power requirements and the individual rail current
requirem ents of all t he cards in the shelf. (Please refer to the relev ant
manuals for thi s inform ati on on the cards). This is tr ue whether allowing
for redundancy or not.
Warning:
The Shelf should be professionally installed by a competent
engineer. There are no operator serviceable parts inside the
unit and it should only be opened by a qualified service
engineer. The mains supply should be disconnected before
accessing the interior.
