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 1 Release 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.

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.

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.

Use of Command Description Tables
All configuration screen illustrations (windows) in this guide for both the console interface and for the AQueView EMS, are followed by a display or command description table describing the window display-only, command, or button functions displayed on the window. You are urged to read all the information in the command description table, especially upon first use, as commands may have special instructions or configuration constraints called out in the Function column cells by use of the Note: text convention (see Table 1-2).

Use of Field Description Tables

Field description tables usually follow the command description tables. Field description tables define the fields, their functions, configuration choices, and constraints, if applicable. As in command description tables, the Note: text convention is also used, where appropriate, in the field description tables to alert the user to special instructions or configuration constraints (see Table 1-3).

2 Modules Description

Overview of the DSP2x Voice Server Modules

The DSP2x Voice Server modules Series A through F process voice and other digital data on a PacketStar PSAX Multiservice Media Gateway system to pro- vide some or all of these features: toll quality compression, echo cancellation, silence suppression, comfort noise, fax demodulation/remodulation, and . All modules have two types of LED indicators: FAIL and ACTIVE.
All DSP2x Voice Server modules process circuit emulation voice traffic enter­ing the chassis from any number of selected interface modules and can apply any or all of the following features to selected DS0 channels: voice compres­sion, echo cancellation, silence suppression, and comfort noise. The DSP2C and DSP2D modules can also demodulate and remodulate fax signals.
For a complete information on DSP2x features, see the System Software Release
8.0 DSP2x Voice Server Modules Configuration Modes Table in this chapter.
Note: As of Rel 7.0 and subsequent, the DSP2D through the DSP2F mod-
ules require the CPU2 (128 Mb) module.
All modules provide some or all of these features in conjunction with the channelized CES modules, across the entire PacketStar PSAX Multiservice Media Gateway product line.
Figure 2-1 shows the module faceplate for the Single-Algoset DSP2A and DSP2B Voice Server modules. Figure 2-2 through Figure 2-5 show the DSP2C, DSP2D, DSP2E, and DSP2F module faceplates.
