Radio
and TV
The Model 3196RC generates and uses radio frequency energy, and if not installed and used properly—that is,
in strict accordance with the manufacturer's instructions—may cause interference to radio and television reception. The Model 3196RC has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device
in accordance with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection from such interference in a commercial installation. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If the Model 3196RC causes interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by disconnecting the cables, try to correct the interference by one or
more of the following measures: moving the computing equipment away from the receiver, re-orienting the
receiving antenna, and/or plugging the receiving equipment into a different AC outlet (such that the computing equipment and receiver are on different branches).
Interference can also be reduced by installing an optional clamp-on ferrite (Patton P/N 0816-13) on the DSL
cable, within 12 inches (30 cm) of the DSL connector (see figure 1)

Model 3196RC T-DAC User Manual 1 • Introduction
Model 3196RC iDSL T-DAC overview
The Model 3196RC (see figure 2) provides 16 iDSL subscriber ports and 4, 8, 12, or 16 T1/E1 WAN uplink
ports. A built-in digital cross-connect switch provides completely flexible grooming: the capability to connect
any DS0-channel to any other DS0-channel from the WAN uplink ports or the iDSL ports. The T-DAC combines a time-slot multiplexer and a centralized web-based management system on a front and rear blade for
insertion in a rack with a CPCI mid-plane architecture. The front blade contains LED status indicators, an RS232 configuration port and a 10/100 Ethernet management port. The rear blade contains the iDSL modem
connections and WAN port connections. The 16 iDSL subscriber ports connect to compatible customer
premise equipment modems for data rates up to 144 kbps over a single pair. The WAN links accept channelized T1 or E1 network connections.
Each iDSL port requires only a single twisted pair (2-wires) for full-duplex data transmission at ranges in excess
of 9 km (24 AWG). TC-PAM line encoding ensures spectral compatibility within existing voice/data bundles.
Each WAN port terminates T1/E1 with flexible any-to-any DS0 mapping. The entire system can be managed
in-band (via T1/E1 Frame Relay/PPP links) or out-of-band from a web browser by means of SNMP/HTTPbased management screens.
The Model 3196RC connects 16 iDSL remote NTUs or modems at data-rates up to 144 kbps to digital
(ATM/FR/DDN/IP) networks, thus permitting multi-service access to CLECs, ISPs, and PTTs.

Hardware overview
The Model 3196RC combines transmission and networking technology concentrating 16 iDSL ports and 4 to
16 T1/E1 WAN links into a single slot blade for a standard CPCI chassis. The T-DAC front blade (see
figure 3) contains a full set of LED status indicators presented on the front panel, and an RS-232 async control
port. The rear blade presents electrical connections for the iDSL modems and WAN ports as well as an alarm
LED.

WAN
The 3196RC includes four, eight, twelve, or sixteen WAN uplink ports selectable for T1 or E1 operation. The
WAN uplink ports may be connected to ATM/FR/DDN/ IP network backbones and are accessible via the 68pin SCSI connector. Also included are:
• Four to sixteen built-in T1/E1 CSU/DSUs
• T1 1.544 Mbps with D4 or ESF framing, AMI or B8ZS line coding, FCC part 68 compliant
• E1 2.048 Mbps multi-framing with or without CRC4 framing, AMI/HDB3 line coding, CTR-12, and
CTR-13 compliant
• Built-in fuses and surge protectors
Hardware overview 18
Model 3196RC T-DAC User Manual 1 • Introduction
LAN
The 10/100-Mbps Ethernet LAN port is presented on an RJ-45 connector with an auto-sensing/full-duplex
10Base-T or 100Base-T interface. Also included are:
• 100Base-TX half-/full-duplex operation (100 + 100)
• 10Base-T half-/full-duplex operation (10 + 10)
• Auto detection and fallback
• 10/100 Mbps link and status indicators
RS-232 control port
The RS-232 port provides for initial configuration of the Model 3196RC. The RS-232 port supports:
• Asynchronous data rates of 19.2 kbps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit.
• An RJ-45 connector with EIA-561 pinouts
• A management interface that supports VT-100 terminals
• Hardware flow control (RTS and CTS)
Power system
The 3196RC obtains power from the CPCI chassis via PCMG 2.11 47-pin power connectors on the front and
rear blade. Total power consumption is a maximum of 43 Watts, provided by modular power supplies installed
in the CPCI chassis.
Central processing unit
The 3196RC employs an Intel i960VH RISC processor operating at 100 MHz/100 Mips. The CPU controls
the memory, front/back-panel and management interface for iDSL port/WAN time slot mapping, local
switching, loopback and the management system. The memory holds:
• 4 MB Flash ROM
• 8 MB EDO DRAM
iDSL ports
The 16 iDSL ports operate at data-rates up to 144 kbps and are accessible via the RJ-21X 50-pin Telco connector. Each port uses one twisted-pair (2-wires) for full-duplex communication. The iDSL ports can be concentrated into TDM data output on the WAN ports. Other features include:
• Line encoding defined by iDSL
• “Plug-and-Play” automatic configuration between the multiplexer and the CPE modems
• Built-in surge protection
• Configuration parameters and line status indicators accessible to upper-level utility or application software
Hardware overview 19

Model 3196RC T-DAC User Manual 2 • Hardware installation
Introduction
This chapter contains the following procedures for installing the Model 3196RC T-DAC:
Note
Before installing the T-DAC, you will need to obtain the line type and
encoding of the T1/E1 line from your local telephone company (Telco).
• “Unpacking the Model 3196RC T-DAC”—lists the contents in the T-DAC shipping container
• “T-DAC blades installation”—describes installing the T-DAC on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch
rack
• “Cable installation” on page 27—describes installing the power and network interface cables
• “Completing the hardware installation” on page 34—describes testing the T-DAC hardware to verify that it
is ready for software configuration
Unpacking the Model 3196RC T-DAC
Inspect the shipping carton for external damage. Note any damage before removing the container contents.
Report equipment damage to the shipping carrier immediately for claim purposes. Save all packing materials in
case you need to return an item to the factory for servicing.
The T-DAC comes with the following items:
• The Model 3196RC Digital Cross-Connect (T-DAC)
• One RJ45-to-RJ45 cable for use with the console and Ethernet ports
• A DB9-RJ45 (EIA-561) adapter for connecting a PC’s serial port to the T-DAC console port
T-DAC blades installation
Do the following:
Note
Verify that the rack chassis is properly grounded before installing the
T-DAC blades. An adequate ground can be achieved by connecting a
#10 AWG ground wire between the rack chassis grounding stud and
one of the following ground sources:
•
The building ground rod (generally located at the site’s main service entrance)
•
A sprinkler system pipe
•
A cold-water pipe
•
Building structural steel
1. If you have not done so already, remove the T-DAC from its shipping container.
Note
Be sure to wear the anti-static strap to prevent electrostatic damage to
the blade.
Introduction 25
Model 3196RC T-DAC User Manual 2 • Hardware installation
Note
The T-DAC should be installed as close as possible to the termination
jack provided by the Telco. The location should be well ventilated.
Do not block the rack chassis’ cooling vents.
2. Insert the rear blade into the desired slot in the rack chassis. Make sure the blade is seated properly in the
slot guides.
Card handle
Alignment/ESD pin
Figure 5. Alignment/ESD pin and card handle
3. Gently press the blade into the chassis until the alignment/ESD pin (see figure 5) engages the chassis.
When the blade is fully seated, the red buttons in the handles click up automatically, thus locking the handle and activating the switch (closed position). The click of the button gives a visual and audible confirmation that the board is fully seated.
4. Insert the front blade into the rack chassis slot that corresponds to the slot in which you installed the rear
blade. Verify that the buttons in both handles click up to indicate that the board is fully seated and locked
into place.
