Safety Warnings and Information
!
Modifying or tampering with PSAX chassis components may void your
warranty. Any modification to this equipment not expressly authorized
by Lucent Technologies may void your granted authority to operate such
equipment.
!
When inserting modules into the chassis, slide them gently, not forcefully. Excessive force may cause the modules to be seated improperly in
the chassis, and result in possible damage to the module or the chassis.
Install or remove modules one at a time. Doing this aids in preventing
the PSAX system from indicating any erroneous failure messages, and
allows the PSAX system to reinitialize and display the accurate configuration of the module that is inserted.
!
Shipping the chassis with removable I/O, server, or CPU modules
installed may cause damage to the chassis and the modules. Damage to
any of the components in the system resulting from shipping the chassis
with removable modules installed will void your warranty. Only Lucentauthorized personnel should ship the PSAX chassis with a module
installed.

Safety Warnings and Information
When installing and operating the PacketStar® PSAX Multiservice Media
Gateway, follow the safety guidelines provided below to help prevent serious
personal injury and damage to the equipment. Please read all warnings and
instructions supplied before beginning installation or configuration of the
equipment. In addition to the general safety information provided below,
you should also refer to the user and installation guides for other important
safety information and procedures.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions
The room where the PSAX system is located must have built-in precautions
to provide protection from electrostatic discharge damage to electronic components. The following sections provide details on these necessary precautions.
Grounding Wrist Straps
Attach at least one grounding wrist strap to a common ground for each chassis/electronic rack to be handled. Follow these guidelines for wrist straps:
• Make sure the wrist straps or wrist strap cords have built-in 1-megohm
(minimum) resistance.
PacketStar® DSP2x Voice Server Modules User Guide, Issue 1Release 8.0.0
iv 255-700-251
• Make sure the wrist straps and wrist strap cords are UL listed.
• Ensure the wrist strap cord is long enough so it can be worn while working
either at the front or the back of the rack.
• Always discharge any static charge by touching your wrist strap before you
touch the PSAX chassis.
Floor Covering
Be sure the room has an antistatic floor covering (conductive mat, tiles, or
carpeting) to minimize static charge buildup as you walk across the room.
Follow these guidelines for installing and maintaining proper floor coverings:
• Using foot grounding straps (attached to the heels of your shoes) is recommended, even if you are walking in rooms with antistatic floor covering.
These straps provide additional protection against electrostatic discharge.
The straps should have built-in 1-megohm (minimum) resistance.
• Wool carpet is not an acceptable floor covering.
• Other types of carpet must be sprayed daily with a topical antistatic chemi-
cal before you perform any work in the room. Paying constant attention to
carpet maintenance is time-consuming but required, if used.
Temperature and Humidity
Safety Warnings and Information
Establishing the proper temperature and humidity in the room where the
PSAX system is located helps control many static discharge problems. Maintaining proper room climate is especially important when heat is turned on
during the cold weather. To avoid damage to the PSAX system, do not allow
the humidity to increase to the level where water droplets appear on surfaces.
Clothing
When working with the PSAX system, avoid wearing clothing made from
wool or synthetic materials. Try to minimize contact between clothing and
electronic components.
Handling Chassis, Modules, and Components
Follow these guidelines for proper handling of the PSAX hardware to minimize electrostatic discharge damage:
• Do not remove the chassis, modules, and other items from their protective
packaging until you are ready to install them.
• When installing modules and components, use a grounding wrist strap
connected to a common electrical ground to prevent electrostatic discharge
damage. (A common electrical ground is a complete circuit between a person or an electrical/electronic device and the earth.)
• Store components in electrostatic-discharge-protective bags when they are
not in use.

About the PacketStar® PSAX Product Family
PSAX 2300 Multiservice Media Gateway
The PacketStar PSAX 2300 Multiservice Media Gateway offers carrier-grade,
high-density multiservice ATM access functions. Designed as the multiservice
media gateway for the central office or for a large enterprise customer, the
PSAX 2300 system provides network access for time-division multiplex
voice, frame relay, I0/100 Base-T Ethernet, and ATM data applications.
Supporting 15 slots for I/O and server modules, a 1.9 Gbps ATM cell bus
architecture, carrier-class reliability, full redundancy, provisions for OC-3,
OC-3c/STM-1, and OC-12c/STM-4c interfaces, N x T1/E1 module protection
switching, and a full range of interfaces such as DS0A, DS1/E1, DS3/E3,
10/100Base-T Ethernet, and serial, the PSAX 2300 system solves many
demanding and diverse network design challenges with ease.
PSAX 4500 Multiservice Media Gateway
The PacketStar PSAX 4500 Multiservice Media Gateway provides carrier-class
reliability, providing up to 4.2 Gbps of switching capacity, the highest in the
PacketStar family. The system offers an unmatched range of service capabilities, end-to-end traffic prioritization, “any-service, any-channel” flexibility,
and breakthrough voice technology. Ideal for the central office or a large
enterprise multiservice media gateway, the PSAX 4500 system provides
highly reliable network access for time-division multiplex voice, frame relay,
10/100Base-T Ethernet, and ATM data applications.

Text Conventions
The high-performance midplane design supports 15 interface slots. In four
segments, the unique PSAX 4500 midplane allows each segment to be scaled
independently to provide nonblocking, redundant chassis bandwidths
beyond 4.2 Gbps. Module protection for two groups of four or six multiport
DS3, STS-1e, or E3 modules is provided via an N:1 protection scheme using
rear access line interface modules. The protection module can fill in so that
on the failure of any one of the modules in a group, traffic is maintained.
Using the latest voice-compression technology, the DSP2x Voice Server modules deliver service providers eight times the capacity of traditional time division multiplex circuits while maintaining toll quality and reducing costs by
nearly 30 percent per channel. A single PSAX 4500 system at the edge of the
carrier network can transition traffic from a large number of network customers over high-speed DS1/E1 IMA, DS3/E3, OC-3, OC-3c/STM-1c, and
OC-12c/STM-4c trunks into the ATM core, managing the whole quickly and
efficiently, down to the individual permanent virtual circuit.
