1 Product overview

The Modular Telecom Router is part of the VikinX® Modular product range,
offering up to 128x128 crosspoints for ITU G.703 CMI coded 140/155 Mbps
telecom signals.
This top of the line router provides a very compact frame, fully hot-swappable
architecture, built-in dual redundant power supply and fully redundant
controller functions.
Starting with the size of 32x32, the router can be expanded under operation
with 32x32 increments. Advanced control features like TCP/IP interface and
SNMP agent, as well as comprehensive surveillance of the router’s vital
parameters are possible via the well known GYDA-128 controller.
As for our well known VikinX

®

compact router series low power consumption

has been important.

VikinX

®

Modular provides a fully hot-swappable architecture, meaning that all
components are front loaded without any active components on the rear
panel.

VikinX

®

Modular provides all important 3rd party control interfaces allowing
the control of our routers through 3

rd

party management software. On top of
that does the Network Electronics’ THOR management package allow control
of the most common 3

rd

party routers. This enables you to utilise existing

routers and management systems from other manufacturers and still draw the
advantages of implementing VikinX

®

Modular in your routing application.

3 Modules inside the Modular Telecom Router

In order to get an overview of the parts that form the Modular Telecom
Router this chapter will highlight some of the main components.

GYDA-VX SysCon (not shown in picture) Power Supplies X-point Modules

3

3.1 How to access the modules

All active modules are accessible through the front of the router frame. If
service or inspection is required, open the unit from the front. The door may
be removed for easy access to the modules.
An important feature of all the modules in the Modular Telecom Router frame
is that they are all hot-swappable. The user does not have to turn off the
power in order to remove/reinstall/replace a module with active components
inside the Modular Telecom Router.

3.2 How to configure the router and modules

Setting up and configuring the router and its modules is done with the
System Configurator software. The System Configurator is shipped with the
router, or could be downloaded from

www.network-electronics.com.

3

The picture shows a 9RU frame. The 5RU misses the upper two X-point Modules.

14

Modular Telecom Router Rev. 4

For further instructions on router configuration, please see the online
documentation in the System Configurator.

3.3 Power Supply module

Each Modular Telecom Router frame comes with either one or two power
supply modules. One power supply is standard, dual redundant power supply
is an option.
The first power supply module is inserted in the left slot (A), and the second is
inserted in the right slot (B). (The power module A is pulled out in the figure
below).

3.3.1 Module insertion

In order to insert a power supply module one must insert the module via the
special plastic guide rails into its position. Once the module is inserted, fix the
module by lifting up the handle on the front and pushing it to the upright
position.

3.3.2 Module removal

In order to remove a power supply module, one must pull down the handle
on the front downwards to a horizontal position, and pull the module out
with the bar on top of the power module.

3.3.3 How to connect power to the Modular Telecom Router

On the back of the frame, there are four power connectors. Two of these
connectors are for AC mains connection, and the other two connectors are for
DC battery connection.

Use an IEC 320 connector to connect AC mains to the Modular Telecom
Router frame.

15

Modular Telecom Router Rev. 4

If the frame is equipped with a single power supply module, only one AC
mains connection is used. However, if the frame is equipped with dual,
redundant power supply modules, both AC mains connectors must be used,
preferably from two different mains circuits.

DC battery power is connected to the frame with screw terminals.

If the frame is equipped with a single power supply module, only one DC
battery connection is used. However, if the frame is equipped with dual,
redundant power supply modules, both DC battery connectors must be used,
preferably from two different battery circuits.

A combination of dual, redundant power supply, using both an AC mains and
a DC battery is possible. The frame must then be equipped with a power
supply module of each type, and one AC connector and one DC connector
must be used.

Note:

There is a switch on the right hand side of the power supply module that
selects mains voltage. The mains voltage can be either 110VAC or 230VAC.
This switch must be set in the correct position, depending on the mains
voltage on the router’s site.

Failing to select correct AC mains voltage properly may damage the
Power Supply Unit.

3.3.4 Status LEDs and Relay contacts

There are 2 LEDs on the front of each power supply module, and they indicate
the following:

- The upper, RED LED should be normally OFF. If it is ON, there is a power
supply failure, indicating that the power supply module must be replaced.

- The lower, GREEN LED must be ON when mains power is connected. If this
LED is OFF, it means that there is no mains power supplying the frame.

There are also two Power fail alarm relay contacts on the rear side of the
frame; see Chapter 1 for details. Each installed PSU module has a separate pair
of contacts. The relay contact is normally open, and the contact closes on
power failure.

- The PSU module A alarm is formed by contact between Pin 3 and Pin 6
(Green pair)

- The PSU module B alarm is formed by contact between Pin 1 and Pin 2
(Orange pair)

16

Modular Telecom Router Rev. 4

3.4 System Controller – SysCon

Each VikinX® Modular frame comes with either one or two system controller
cards, SysCon. One SysCon is necessary to control the router; dual redundant
SysCon is an option.
SysCon can be enabled for 3

rd

party control interfaces. Please contact your
Network representative for details.
Your SysCon card(s) may be inserted in any of the two slots (A) and (B).

All the configuration parameters, control parameters, etc. are stored in the
Compact Flash (CF) memory of the SysCon card. This provides a high grade of
security for the user, as he just needs to remove the CF card if the SysCon card
fails, and install this CF card on a new SysCon card. The router will not notice
the difference.

3.4.1 Card insertion

The frame is equipped with plastic guide rails to align the SysCon cards into
their respective positions. Slide the card into the plastic guide rails inside the
frame until the red handle is close to the frame front. A detailed description of
the last part of the insertion process is shown in the figure below.

On the top of the card tray, there is a hole above each module slot. When the
tip of the handle is just below this hole, start to push the handle downwards
as in the figure. The tip of the handle enters the hole and the card is locked
and proper contact ensured when the handle is in downright position.

Do not use excessive force; the card should enter easily –

proper insertion is almost effortless.

17

Modular Telecom Router Rev. 4

3.4.2 Card removal

To remove a module card from the sub-rack frame, release the card by
moving the red handle until it is in horizontal position, as shown in the figure
below. Then pull the card out of the sub-rack with the red handle.

3.4.3 Status LEDs and Reset button

There are 4 LEDs on the front side of the SysCon card, and a reset button on
the rear side.

Status LEDs

18

3.6 X-point module

Each VikinX® Modular frame must be equipped with at least one X-point card,
in order to work as a router.
A maximum of four X-point cards can be inserted into the 9RU frame,
providing router sizes from 32x32, via 64x64, 96x96, up to 128x128.
A maximum of two X-point cards can be inserted into the 5RU frame,
providing router sizes of either 32x32 or 64x64. The X-point cards are inserted
from the lower card tray (I/O#1-32), up to the upper card tray (I/O#97-128 or
I/O#33-64).

21

Modular Telecom Router Rev. 4

3.6.1 Card insertion

To insert a X-point card, slide the module along the plastic guide rails into its
position. On both sides of the card tray there is a hole next to each module
slot. Use the two red handles, which are located on the front of the module to
seat the module. When the tip of both handles is just next to these holes, start
to push the handles simultaneously inwards the card. The tip of the handles
enters the hole and the card is locked and proper contact ensured when you
hear a click from both handles.

Note that it may be necessary to press hard when inserting the X-point
card(s). Be sure to press the card(s) firmly into the frame, before locking the
handles.

3.6.2 Card removal

To remove an X-point card from the frame, release the card by pushing the
red knobs on each handle until each handle releases from its locked position.

Environmentally Friendly Use Period (EFUP)

EFUP is the time the product can be used in normal service life without leaking
the hazardous materials. We expect the normal use environment to be in an
equipment room at controlled temperature range (0ºC - 40ºC) with moderate
humidity (<90%, non-condensing) and clean air, not subject to vibration or
shock.
Where a product contains potentially hazardous materials, this is indicated on
the product by the appropriate symbol containing the EFUP. The hazardous
material content is limited to lead (Pb) in some solders. This is extremely
stable in normal use and the EFUP is taken as 50 years, by comparison with
the EFUP given for Digital Exchange/Switching Platform in equipment in
Appendix A of “General Rule of Environment-Friendly Use Period of Electronic
Information Products”. This is indicated by the product marking:

31

50

It is assumed that while the product is in normal use, any batteries associated
with real-time clocks or battery-backed RAM will be replaced at the regular
intervals.
The EFUP relates only to the environmental impact of the product in normal
use, it does not imply that the product will continue to be supported for 50
years.
