Installing telephones

Follow these safety instructions when installing telephone equipment:
Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.
Never install a telephone jack in wet locations unless the jack is designed for wet locations.
Never touch an uninsulated telephone wire or terminal unless the telephone line is disconnected at the network interface.
Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Using telephones

These safety precautions are intended to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury. Always follow these basic safety precautions when using telephone equipment:
Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
Before you clean a telephone, remove the plug from the wall outlet. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
Do not use the telephone near water (for example, near a tub or sink).
Safety instructions Page 35 of 488
Do not place the telephone on a piece of furniture that is unstable. The telephone can fall, causing serious damage to the telephone.
Slots in the Media Gateway and the telephone are for ventilation. These slots protect the equipment from overheating. Never block or cover these slots.
Never block the openings on a telephone by placing it on a surface like a bed, sofa, or rug. Never place a telephone near or over a radiator or heat register. Do not place it in a built-in installation, unless there is correct ventilation.
Only operate a telephone from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply, check with your distributor.
Communication Server 1000E Installation and Configuration
Page 36 of 488 Safety instructions
Some equipment has a three-wire grounding plug. This type of plug has a third grounding pin. As a safety feature, the plug only fits into an isolated ground outlet. If you cannot insert the plug completely into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace the outlet.
Some equipment has a polarized line plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. As a safety feature, this plug fits into the power outlet one way. If you cannot insert the plug completely into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug still does not fit, contact your electrician to replace the outlet.
Do not place objects on the power cord. Do not locate the product where persons can walk on the plug.
Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords, as fire or electrical shock can result.
Never push objects of any kind into the telephone through the slots. The objects can come in contact with dangerous voltage points. Also, parts can short out, causing the risk of fire or electrical shock.
Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not disassemble a telephone product.
Remove the telephone plug from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified personnel if:
— the power supply cord or plug is damaged or worn
— liquid has spilled into the telephone
— the telephone has been exposed to rain or water
— the telephone has been dropped or damaged
— the product shows a distinct change in performance
— the telephone does not function correctly under normal
operating conditions
Avoid using a telephone (except a type without a cord) during an electrical storm. There is a remote risk of electric shock from lightning.
Do not use the telephone to report a gas leak in the area of the leak.

CAUTION — Damage to Equipment
The CS 1000E Call Server chassis is constructed of light-weight aluminum. It can be damaged if the unit is lifted from the shipping box by its top plate.
The CS 1000E uses a Call Processor Pentium IV (CP PIV) processor for CS 1000 Release 4.5. It features the following enhancements:
a PCI-based design
an Intel Pentium IV processor
two Compact Flash (CF) sockets (one on-board and one hot-swappable on the faceplate)
512 MBytes of DRAM memory
The Call Server is shown in Figure 1 on page 43 and in Figure 2 on page 44.
553-3041-210 Standard 4.00 September 2007
Figure 1 CS 1000E Core Call Server (top view)
System components Page 43 of 488
The on-board CF is referred to as the Fixed Media Disk (FMD), and the faceplate CF is referred to as the Removable Media Disk (RMD).
CP PIV has the following new hardware:
A CP PIV processor board. See Figure 1 and Figure 2 on page 44.
A blank panel.
Note: The front panel USB port on the CP PIV card is intended for future applications.
The Call Server uses IP protocols to control all IP Phones, media services, and interfaces to other gateways and applications.

Backup and restore enhancements

The backup rules group of commands was introduced in CS 1000 Release 4.0 with the single rule type Secondary Call Server (SCS). Backup and restore
553-3041-210 Standard 4.00 September 2007
enhancements apply to both CP PII and CP PIV system configurations, unless otherwise noted.
Note: This feature does not actually perform an EDD, which must be initiated through an appropriate command in LD 43.

New backup rules

Three new backup rule types are introduced with CP PIV:
FTP — an external FTP server is accessed for storing or retrieving backup data.
FMD — fixed media device for storing backup data in a special directory on the /u partition. A CP PII system stores the data on a local hard drive, while a CP PIV system uses an on-board Compact Flash card.
RMD — removable media device for storing backup data. The RMD rule type is available only on a CP PIV system.
Note: New backup rules are not available for Geographic Redundancy Database Replication Control (GRDRC).

MRV Terminal Server

The Terminal Server, described in Table 8 on page 65, provides the dedicated rlogin service used to establish serial connection between a CS 1000E and various serial devices. The IP-based Terminal Server provides standard serial ports for applications that use a serial port interface. These applications include billing systems that analyze Call Detail Recording (CDR) records, Site Event Buffers (SEB) that track fault conditions, and various legacy applications such as Property Management System (PMS) interface and intercept Computer applications. In addition, serial ports are used to connect maintenance terminals and modems for support staff.
Communication Server 1000E Installation and Configuration
Page 64 of 488 System components
Note: PTY ports are software ports and will not work until the system has completed its INI or SYSLOAD . These ports cannot be used by a SEB to track INI/SYSLOAD faults as they will not be able to see these issues. If you wish to capture these messages using an SEB, it is recommended that it be connected to a TTY port such as Port 0, which displays SYS/INI messages.
The Terminal Server is configured to automatically log in to the active Core Call Server upon start-up. It always connects to the Active CPU IP address.
The CS 1000E can configure up to 16 serial ports for applications within the configuration Data Block. Ports can be configured by using:
login userid of "PTYnn" – TTY ports are specified where nn is the PTY port number configured for a particular TTY within LD 17. If a "PTYnn" userid is specified and that port is busy because of another login, an error message will be produced (on the maintenance consoles, in the report log, or as SNMP alarms).
no userid or the OTM userid – the highest available PTY port number is selected
The Terminal Server has the following attributes:
support “rlogin” protocol on local access mode
support transparent, or binary mode, on “rlogin” connection
support port speed up to 115kbps
support auto rlogin connection and auto-retry after being disconnected
support BOOTP
support DHCP

Introduction

All CS 1000E system components are installed in a customer-supplied, 19-inch rack. Also refer to the equipment layout plan and card slot assignment plan for additional information.
Component air circulation is either from front to back or from side to side. Therefore, components can be mounted immediately above or below an installed component. The rack’s u pattern provides adequate clearance between components. For example, a Media Gateway Expander could be installed in the next 5u pattern of mounting holes below an already installed
Communication Server 1000E Installation and Configuration
Page 74 of 488 Rack-mounting the components
Media Gateway. The Media Gateway Expander would be approximately 1/4 in from the Media Gateway.
Note: In the 5u pattern, a “u” is equal to 1.75 in. and includes three holes spaced at 5/8 in. + 5/8 in. + 1/2 in.
Other data communications equipment can be installed in a rack with CS 1000E system components.
Ensure that the unit’s power cord is appropriate for the area’s electrical service. Do not modify or use the supplied AC power cord if it is not the correct type.

Guidelines for component placement in a rack

When installing equipment, the Layer two switches should be in a central location to allow for easy access of all LAN cabling. The Media Gateways and Media Gateway Expanders must be mounted together vertically, and they must be powered from the same power rail. Typical vertical power bars in equipment racks are rated at 15/20 amps @ 120 volts. Ensure that the equipment load does not exceed the power bar rating. Refer to Communication Server 1000E: Planning and Engineering (553-3041-120) for information on power consumption. Do not place redundant equipment on the same electrical circuit.

Read the following warnings carefully before you begin installing the Signaling Server in the rack.
DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
DISCONNECT AC POWER
The Signaling Server must be completely disconnected from any AC power source before performing this procedure. Pressing the Power button DOES NOT turn off power to this Signaling Server. Some circuitry in the unit can continue to operate even though the front panel Power button is off.
Failure to disconnect the Signaling Server from its AC power source can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK
GROUNDING THE RACK INSTALLATION
To avoid the potential for an electrical shock hazard, include a third wire safety grounding conductor with the rack installation.
If Signaling Server power cords are plugged into AC outlets that are part of the rack, then provide proper grounding for the rack itself.
If Signaling Server power cords are plugged into wall AC outlets, the safety grounding conductor in each power cord provides proper grounding for the Signaling Server only. Provide additional, proper grounding for the rack and other devices installed in it.
Communication Server 1000E Installation and Configuration
Page 88 of 488 Rack-mounting the components
WAR NING
MAIN AC POWER DISCONNECT
A main AC power disconnect must be installed. The main AC power disconnect must:
• disconnect power to the entire rack unit
• be readily accessible
• be labeled as controlling power to the entire unit, not just to the Signaling Server(s)
1 Attach the rack-mount brackets (“B” as shown in Figure 19 on page 83) to

WAR NING
Correct grounding is very important. Failure to complete the grounding procedures could result in a system that is unsafe for the personnel using the equipment.
CAUTION — Service Interruption
If your system is not grounded correctly, it cannot be protected from lightning or power surges, and it could be subject to service interruptions. You must use insulated ground wire for system grounding.
CAUTION — Service Interruption
To prevent ground loops, power all equipment from the same dedicated electrical panel.
WAR NING

Grounding a CS 1000E Call Server

The CS 1000E Call Servers are not connected to a ground bar. They are properly grounded when:
the CS 1000E power cord is plugged into the rack’s AC outlet. The rack’s AC outlet must be grounded to its dedicated electrical panel. This is the preferred method.
the CS 1000E power cord is plugged into a wall AC outlet. The CS 1000E is grounded outside of the rack using the safety grounding conductor in the power cord. This method ensures proper grounding only of the CS 1000E itself. It does not provide grounding protection for other rack-mounted pieces of equipment. Therefore, ensure that other devices in the rack are properly grounded as required.

Grounding a Signaling Server

The Signaling Server is not connected to a ground bar. It is properly grounded when:
the Signaling Server power cord is plugged into the rack’s AC outlet. The rack’s AC outlet must be grounded to its dedicated electrical panel. This is the preferred method.
Communication Server 1000E Installation and Configuration
Page 96 of 488 Installing system grounds
the Signaling Server power cord is plugged into a wall AC outlet. The Signaling Server is grounded outside of the rack using the safety grounding conductor in the power cord. This method ensures proper grounding only of the Signaling Server itself. It does not provide grounding protection for other rack-mounted pieces of equipment. Therefore, ensure that other devices in the rack are properly grounded as required.

Grounding a Media Gateway powered by the same electrical panel

Follow Procedure 8 to ground one or more Media Gateway powered by the same electrical panel.
Procedure 8 Grounding Media Gateways powered by the same electrical panel
1 Disconnect the AC power cord from the power outlet.
2 Install a #6 AWG ground wire from the ground lug, as shown in Figure 27
on page 97, at the back of the Media Gateway to the ground bar.
3 Place a DO NOT DISCONNECT tag on the ground wire.

Grounding other rack-mounted components

To ground multiple pieces of equipment in a rack, use a separate ground connection from each piece of equipment to the ground bar. If a piece of data communications equipment in a rack does not have a grounding lug then ground the rack to the ground bar.
When the rack is grounded to the ground bar, the equipment is grounded using the Single Point Grounding method, as shown in Figure 28 on
page 100.
