HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR

!

STATIC-SENSITIVE DEVICES

This product is designed to protect sensitive components from damage
due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during normal operation. When
performing installation procedures, however, take proper static control
precautions to prevent damage to equipment. If you are not sure of the
proper static control precautions, contact your nearest sales or service
representative.

Unpack and inspect the TIM1500. If there is visible damage, do not attempt to
connect the device; contact your sales or service representative.

Verifying the TIM1500 Switch Settings

The TIM1500 has a bank of eight switches at the rear of the module (opposite the
faceplate). Switches are numbered from left to right, 1–8. All eight switches should
be in the default up (ON) position. Switches 1 and 4–8 are not used.

NOTE: TIM1500s with printed circuit boards (PCBs) at revision level 810-0000AA
have eight switch banks. For PCBs with eight switch banks, the following sections
(Switch 2 and Switch 3) refer to switches in the switch bank labeled SW 7. All
switches on the other seven switch banks should be in the default up (ON)
position. PCBs at any revision level other than 810-0000AA have only one switch
bank.

Switch 2

CAUTION: Switch 2 indicates to the Multiplexer Uplink Module (MUM) in the same
chassis that the module is a T1 inverse multiplexer. The switch must be in the up
(ON) position. The TIM1500 will not link up if Switch 2 is in the down position.

Switch 3

Switch 3 indicates to the MUM whether the TIM1500 will be acting as a T1
provider or a T1 subscriber. The default up (ON) position specifies that the
TIM1500 acts as a provider. In most cases, this is the desired setting. The
TIM1500 can, however, be configured to act as a T1 subscriber, if so desired, by
placing Switch 3 in the down (Off) position.

Provider Mode Subscriber Mode

NOTE: You cannot set speed or timing configurations on a TIM1500 in subscriber
mode. These settings will be determined via each port's communication with its
respective partner T1 provider.

Installing the TIM1500 in a BAC

There must be a Multiplexer Uplink Module (MUM) installed in the Broadband
Access Concentrator (BAC) in order for interface modules to operate.

 The 12000 and 12000E BACs are fourteen slot chassis. Slots 1–12 are

reserved for interface modules (such as the AIM24000), and the remaining
slots (13 and 14 in the 12000 and U1 and U2 in the 12000E) are reserved for
management modules.

 The 4000 BAC is a five slot chassis; slots 1–4 are reserved for interface

modules and slot 5 is reserved for a MUM.

Interface modules are hot swappable. Installing or removing an interface module
while the chassis is powered up does not affect the operational status of other
interface modules within the chassis.

Procedure

1. Align the TIM1500 with the slot module guides of the chosen slot for
installation (slot 1–12 in the 12000 and 12000E or slot 1–4 in the 4000 and
4000E).

2. Slide the TIM1500 firmly into the chassis. Do not use excessive force.

3. Secure the TIM1500 by tightening the fastening screws on the module
faceplate.

4. Verify that the PWR (Power) LED on the TIM1500 faceplate is illuminated. If
your BAC is not yet powered up, refer to the installation instructions for your
BAC.

TIM1-A2-GZ40-00 September 2004 5

Connecting the T1 Line

T1 cables must be connected according to the BAC slot in which the TIM1500 was
installed. For example, a TIM15000 installed in Slot 3 of an 12000E uses the RJ21
connectors labeled 3A and 3B.

12000E and 4000E

Each interface module slot on the 12000E and 4000E has two corresponding
RJ21 connectors located on the back of the chassis. On the 12000E, the bottom
row of RJ21 connectors (A) provides the T1 connection for TIM1500 ports 1–12,
and the top row of RJ21 connectors (B) provides the T1 connection for TIM1500
ports 13–24.

On the 4000E, the A connectors for each interface module slot are on the left and
the B connectors are on the right.
