Model 3095 mDSL DACS overview
The Model 3095 links up 16 mDSL circuits to multiple WAN uplink modules with completely flexible
grooming. The DACs combines dual-redundant power supplies, a time-slot multiplexer, and a centralized
management system into an ultra-sleek 1U chassis. The subscriber side connects to compatible mDSL modems
for data rates up to 2.3 Mbps service over a single pair. The WAN links accept channelized T1 or E1 network
connections and by using the built-in digital cross connect switch, the Model 3095 can flexibly groom any
DS0channel to any other DS0-channel from the WAN ports or the mDSL ports.
Each 2.3-Mbps mDSL port requires only a single twisted pair (2-wires) for full-duplex data transmission at
ranges in excess of 5.5 km. The CAP 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 through SNMP/HTTP-based management screens.
The Model 3095 connects 16 mDSL remote NTUs or modems at data-rates up to 2.3 Mbps to digital (ATM/
FR/DDN/IP) networks, thus permitting multi-service access to CLECs, ISPs, and PTTs.

Introduction
This chapter contains the following procedures for installing the Model 3095 DACS:
Note Before installing the DACS, you will need to obtain the line type and
encoding of the T1/E1 line from your local telephone company
(telco).
• “Unpacking the Model 3095 DACS”—lists the contents in the DACS shipping container
• “DACS chassis installation”—describes installing the DACS on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch rack
• “Cable installation” on page 23—describes installing the power and network interface cables
• “Completing the hardware installation” on page 28—describes testing the DACS hardware to verify that it
is ready for software configuration
Unpacking the Model 3095 DACS
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 DACS comes with the following items:
• The Model 3095 Digital Cross-Connect (DACS)
• An 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 DACS console port
• Rack mounting kit with rack ears and mounting hardware
• Model 3095 DACS Getting Started Guide
• CD-ROM containing product literature and the mDSL DACS Administrator's Reference Guide
Note Power cables are shipped separately from the Model 3095 DACS.
DACS chassis installation
Do the following:
1. If you have not done so already, remove the DACS from its shipping container.
Note The DACS should be placed as close as possible to the termination
jack provided by the Telco. Avoid installing the DACS in a location
where the power cords or network interface cables could be accidentally disconnected. The location should be well ventilated. Do not
block the DACS's cooling vents.
2. If you are installing the DACS in a 19-inch rack, go to step 3. Otherwise, place the DACS at the desired
location, then go to “Cable installation” on page 23.
3. Install the rack mounting ears onto the DACS using the mounting hardware provided.
22 Introduction
Page 23
Model 3095 mDSL DACS Getting Started Guide 2 • Hardware installation
4. Place the DACS at the desired position in the rack.
5. Secure the DACS in position with the mounting screws.
Cable installation
This section describes installing the power, ground, and network interface cables.
Installing the power cables—AC Power Supply
This section describes installing the power cables into the IEC-320 connectors on the DACS. Do not connect
the male end of the power cables to the power outlet at this time. Do the following:
1. Install a power cable into an IEC-320 connector (see figure 5). The AC main socket outlet shall be within
3 meters of the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
Figure 5. IEC-320 connector and grounding stud locations
To avoid the risk of injury from electric shock, the power cords connected to
the IEC-320 connectors must be grounded power cords.

2. Rotate the power cable retainer clip so it secures the power cable plug in the IEC-320 connector as shown
in figure 6.
Figure 6. Power cable retainer clip
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the remaining power cable.
Installing the power cables—DC Power Supply
This section describes installing the DACS for using DC power. Do not connect the remaining end of the
power cables to the DC power source. For the DC power source, the DACS is equipped with a two-position,
screw-down terminal block.
Use copper conductors between AWG 12 - 18 only.
While looking into the DC power connector, the +DC input is on the right and
the -DC input is on the left (see figure 7).
1. Connect the earth ground of the DC source to the grounding stud on the DACS as described in the fol-
lowing section “Grounding the Model 3095—AC and DC Power Supplies”.
2. Strip back the insulation on each of the wires approximately 1/4-inch.
3. Insert the stripped end of the positive lead into the "+DC input" of the terminal block. Tighten the screw
until the power lead is firmly fastened. Repeat the procedure for the negative lead, using the "-DC input"
of the terminal block. Make sure that all strands of the wire are captured and that there is no exposed wire.

Install the supplied RJ-45-to-RJ-45 cable with the DB9-RJ45 adapter between the DACS RS-232 port (see
figure 8 on page 26) and an open serial port on your computer. If you need to assemble your own cable, refer
to the pinout diagram in figure 11.
Figure 11. DB-9-to-RJ-45 cable diagram
Connecting to the T1/E1 WAN ports
An active T1/E1 is not necessary to configure the DACS. However, an active T1/E1 connection is required
when mapping mDSL modems to specific time slots in the T1/E1 ports or even for mapping WAN time
slots to other WAN time slots. The factory-set default configuration of the access server has the T1/E1
ports disabled.
Note The cable connecting the T1/E1 WAN ports to the RJ-48C termina-
tion jack should be CAT-3 or higher and extend no farther than
1 mile (1.6 km) from the digital services termination.
1. Connect the 68-pin SCSI connector of the WAN cable to the connector on the rear panel of the
Model 3095. Refer to “Appendix B” on page 73 for the T1/E1 connector and pin number designations.
Cable installation 27
Page 28
2 • Hardware installation Model 3095 mDSL DACS Getting Started Guide
2. The other end of the cable has 68 unterminated twisted-pairs for connection to a punch-down block.
Select the twisted pairs for the WAN ports that will be activated and terminate them on the punch-down
block.
Connecting the mDSL Ports
The remote (CPE) mDSL modems are connected to the DACS via the RJ-21X cable. Consult Appendix A,
“‘Network Ports (RJ-21X) connector pin-out” in order to connect the CPE mDSL modems to the selected
mDSL modem port on the 3095.
Note The 2-wire mDSL modem lines are polarity insensitive so you only
need to match the correct twisted pairs without being concerned
about matching the individual wires of the twisted pair.
1. Connect the RJ-21X connector of the cable into the 50-pin RJ-21X receptacle on the rear of the 3095.
2. The other end of the cable has 25 non-terminated twisted-pairs for connection to punch-down blocks.
Select the twisted-pairs which will be used for active mDSL modem connections and terminate on the
punch-down blocks. Only 16 of the twisted pairs will be used since there are 16 mDSL modem connections, each being a 2-wire connection.
3. Select and attach the appropriate twisted pair from each remote (CPE) mDSL modem on punch-down
blocks for connection to the chosen mDSL port in the 3095.
Completing the hardware installation
This section verifies that the DACS hardware is operational to the point where you can begin configuring the
software settings. For AC units, do the following:
The DACS power supply automatically adjusts to accept an input
voltage from 100 to 240 VAC (50/60 Hz), 1.5A.
Verify that the proper voltage is present before plugging the
power cord into the receptacle. Failure to do so could result in
equipment damage.

Figure 20. Immediate Actions buttons
From the Home page, the following actions can be performed:
• Record Current Configuration—clicking on this button (see figure 20) saves the current configuration in
volatile DRAM memory to FLASH memory. Once the configuration is saved into FLASH memory, the
configuration will not be lost even if the power is cycled on the 3095. Initially, any changes made to the
38 Using a Web browser to complete Model 3095 configuration
Page 39
Model 3095 mDSL DACS Getting Started Guide 3 • Configuring the DACS for operation
3095 configuration are stored in volatile DRAM first, enabling the user to set the box up with a working
configuration before committing it to storage in FLASH. The configuration changes become permanent
when you select Record Current Configuration.
Note If you want to save the configuration changes that you have made,
you must click on
Record Current Configuration, otherwise all con-
figuration changes will be lost if the power to the Model 3095 is
turned off.
• Hard Reset—this button (see figure 20) causes the Model 3095 to perform a cold restart. When you select
Hard Reset, the DACS confirms that you want to execute this command. Then, the DACS will disconnect
all current sessions, re-initialize the interfaces, and re-load configuration parameters from FLASH.
• Set Factory Default Configuration—this button (see figure 20) clears out the configuration in FLASH and
loads the factory default parameters into FLASH memory. The factory default settings will not execute on
the Model 3095 until it is re-booted by doing a Hard Reset.
Note Set Factory Default Configuration (figure 20) will delete any routing
information, the Model 3095’s Ethernet IP address, and any other
site-specific settings made for your particular installation. You will
have to re-enter the Model 3095’s Ethernet IP address and netmask
using the rear panel control port before using the HTTP/HTML
Management pages.
Configuring the DS0 mapping
You need to make internal connections between an mDSL modem link and its destination. The destination of
an mDSL modem may be at the end of a T1 or E1 link, or another mDSL port. Each mDSL modem inside
the 3095 DACS is configured by selecting the number of DS0 time slots, each time slot being 64 kbps. You
may choose to map from 1 to 31 DS0 time slots in the mDSL modem. The most common destination for the
mDSL modems will be at the remote end of a T1/E1 WAN link.
Note 1. The maximum DTE data rate between an mDSL modem and
another mDSL modem or an E1 Wan link is 2.048 Mbps. If the connection is mapped between two mDSL modems, you may map all 32
DS0 channels between them. If the connection is mapped between
an mDSL modem and an E1 Wan link, the data rate may be set at
1.984 Mbps, but only 31 DS0 channels may be mapped since time
slot 0 of the E1 link is used for synchronization, CRC (if selected),
alarms, etc. because the 3095 E1 ports terminate an E1 line.
2. If you are connecting to T1 WAN links, you may connect an
mDSL modem at a DTE data rate of 2.048 Mbps through two T1
links by mapping 24 DS0 channels to one T1 and the remaining 8
DS0 channels to a second T1 line.
The DS0 Mapping window (Digital Cross Connect Configuration) provides full grooming. The three grooming variations define that connections may be between (1) an mDSL modem and a WAN port, (2) between
Using a Web browser to complete Model 3095 configuration 39

3 • Configuring the DACS for operation Model 3095 mDSL DACS Getting Started Guide
two mDSL modems, or (3) between WAN time slots. Without defining the mapping, the modems have no
destination; similarly with the WAN ports. The DACS functions like a 2-dimensional matrix switch.
Do the following to set the DS0 Mapping of the mDSL modems:
1. Click on

Introduction
This chapter describes how to start or power-down the Model 3095.
Activating the Model 3095
Once the Model 3095 has been installed, no operator action is required under normal conditions; the Model
3095 is designed for unattended operation. The Model 3095 does not have a power switch and powers up
immediately upon connecting the power cords to the 3095. When either power supply is connected to power,
the Model 3095 will immediately begin its boot-up cycle. However, both power supplies must be connected to
power for the redundancy feature to work.
When power is applied to the Model 3095 the following should occur:
1. The POWER LED illuminates.
2. The WAN 1 Frame LED illuminates, indicating that the Model 3095 is synchronizing with the T1/E1 signal.
3. After 5 seconds, the WAN A Error LED flashes, indicating that the Model 3095 is satisfied with the quality
of the T1/E1 signal.
4. After 10 seconds, the WAN A Error LED extinguishes, indicating that the Model 3095 is satisfied with the
network signal and that the link is ready for use.
5. There are two LEDs on the Model 3095 10/100 Ethernet port: a green LED that indicates link status and
activity, and a yellow LED that indicates line speed.
The green LED is either flashing green (meaning that packets are being received at the Ethernet port) or
solid green (meaning that the link is valid but no packets are being received).
The yellow LED is either lit (indicating 100-Mbps operation) or off (indicating 10-Mbps operation).
Note The yellow LED reflects the speed of the last valid Ethernet
connection.
The Model 3095 is operational.
De-activating the Model 3095
Perform the following procedure to deactivate the Model 3095.
1. Disconnect the male ends of both power cords from the power distribution strip or to a wall outlet.
2. Verify that the POWER LED extinguishes.

Patton services what we sell, no matter how you acquired it, including malfunctioning products that are no
longer under warranty. Our products have a flat fee for repairs. Units damaged by lightning or other catastrophes may require replacement.

Customer satisfaction is important to us, therefore any product may be returned with authorization within 30
days from the shipment date for a full credit of the purchase price. If you have ordered the wrong equipment or
