THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.
THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.
The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.
Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.
You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:
• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.
• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.
• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.
• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)
Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

Chapter 1 Safety Warnings, Recommendations, and Tools Required

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

Warning
This product relies on the building’s installation for short-circuit (overcurrent) protection. Ensure that a fuse or circuit breaker no larger than 120 VAC, 15A U.S. (240 VAC, 10A international) is used on the phase conductors (all current-carrying conductors). To see translations of the warnings that appear in this publication, refer to the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information document that accompanied this device.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage equipment and impair electrical circuitry. ESD damage occurs when electronic components are improperly handled and can result in complete or intermittent failures.
Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when you remove and replace components. Ensure that the chassis is electrically connected to earth ground. Wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap, ensuring that it makes good skin contact. Connect the grounding clip to an unpainted surface of the chassis frame to safely ground unwanted ESD voltages. To guard against ESD damage and shocks, the wrist strap and cord must operate properly. If no wrist strap is available, ground yourself by touching the metal part of the chassis.
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap, which should be between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).

Cisco AS5350 Chassis
The Cisco AS5350 universal gateway chassis has a motherboard, high-speed backplane, and two backplane slots. One backplane slot accepts one dial feature card (DFC) carrier card and the other backplane slot accepts one DFC.
78-13311-01
Cisco AS5400 Chassis
The Cisco AS5400 universal gateway chassis has a motherboard, high-speed backplane, and four backplane slots. Three backplane slots accept DFC carrier cards and the other backplane slot accepts one DFC.

Dial Feature Cards

Each DFC carrier card accepts two DFCs which allow online insertion and removal (OIR). (See
Figure 2-1.)
Each DFC is a 5.1 x 13 inch PCI based interface board. The following is a brief description of the trunk types supported:
North American robbed-bit signaling (RBS) is supported on T1 trunks, including a variety of North
American RBS protocol, framing, and encoding types on these trunks.
CAS is supported for E1 trunks, with R2 signaling.
Many countries require an E1 R2 variant. Per-country defaults are provided for supervisory and
inter-register signaling.
The CT3 DFC provides physical line termination for a channelized T3 ingress trunk line, and it uses
an onboard multiplexer to multiplex 28 channelized T1 lines into a single channelized T3 line.
Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400 Universal Gateway Card Installation Guide

Chapter 2 Dial Feature Card and Carrier Card Guidelines

Online Insertion and Removal (OIR) of DFCs

Universal access (analog modem or digital calls) is supported when an interface is configured for
ISDN PRI signaling. PRI signaling is available for both T1 and E1 trunks.
In any single DFC slot, you can install your choice of:
One T1, E1, or T3 dial feature card
One universal port card
Online Insertion and Removal (OIR) of DFCs
All DFCs on the Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400 chassis support online insertion and removal (also known as hot swapping). You can install, remove, replace, and rearrange the DFCs without turning off the chassis power.
When the chassis detects that a DFC is installed or removed, it automatically runs diagnostic and discovery routines, acknowledges the presence or absence of the DFC, and resumes chassis operation without any operator intervention.
See:
Chapter 3, “T1 and E1 Dial Feature Cards,” to perform OIR of the T1 or E1 DFC.
Chapter 4, “T3 Dial Feature Card,” to perform OIR of the T3 DFC.
Chapter 5, “Universal Port Dial Feature Card,” to perform OIR of the universal port DFC.

Removing and Installing Populated Carrier Cards

Caution The carrier cards that carry the DFCs are not hot swappable. Removing a card while the system is
still powered on may cause permanent damage to electronic circuits on the card.
The DFC carrier card plugs into one of the backplane slots and supports two DFCs. The carrier card increases backplane capacity and allows OIR of the DFCs. (See Figure 2-1.)

You can install a T1 or E1 dial feature card in any dial feature card slot of the universal gateway chassis. (See Figure 3-1 through Figure 3-3.)
Each T1 or E1 DFC provides physical line termination for multiple DS-0 channels and uses onboard HDLC controllers to terminate digital (ISDN) calls. For network specifications see Tab l e 3-1 and
Table 3-2. You can use the bantam ports on the DFC to monitor a line.
Note The Cisco AS5350 and Cisco AS5400 support only one type of WAN DFC at a time. Refer
to Chapter 6, “Troubleshooting” for more information.
