Cisco 6100 Series System Modules

Cisco 6100 Series System Modules

After you have installed the Cisco 6100 Series system modules and wired your particular configuration, you will apply power and check each module's LED indicators. This chapter describes the following modules and their LED indicators:

Table 5-1 shows the configurations where the multiplexer chassis (MC) modules can operate.

3The Siecor asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) POTS splitter is compatible with the Cisco 6130 in a Direct Connect with a PSC configuration. See "Cisco 6100 Series System Cables" for cabling information.
4
If you install CAP ATU-C modules in the multiplexer chassis (MC), you must install all CAP POTS modules in the POTS splitter chassis.
5The DOH configuration is not supported in Release 2.4.x with a Cisco 6100 or a Cisco 6130. However, the DOH configuration is supported in all Cisco 6100 legacy releases. The CAP ATU-C module used in this configuration is the ATUC-2-DOH-2.
6The DMT-2 ATU-C module can be installed only in the Cisco 6130. Release 2.4.1 will add feature support for the DMT-2 ATU-C module installation in the Cisco 6100.
7If you install DMT-2 ATU-C modules in the MC, you must install all DMT POTS modules in the POTS splitter chassis.
8Symmetrical digital subscriber line (SDSL) does not support POTS.

5.1 Dual-Port ATU-C Module Overview

The dual-port ATU-C module

If provisioned, the ATU-C module rate adapts to the maximum bit rate negotiable on the line. The maximum bit rate settings are provisioned in the ViewRunner management software.

The MC can include up to 32 dual-port ATU-C modules for a total of 64 ADSL modems. The modules can be installed in MC clots 1 through 8, 13 through 28, and 31 through 38.

In a DOH configuration

In a Direct Connect configuration

5.1.1 ATU-C Module Types

Two types of ATU-C modules are available for the Cisco 6100 Series system:


Note There are two CAP ATU-C modules in the field for a Direct Connect configuration: ATUC-2-CAP-DIR-2 and ATUC-2-CAP-DIR-3. There are also two CAP ATU-C modules in the field for a DOH configuration: ATUC-2-CAP-DOH-2 and ATUC-2-CAP-DOH-3. The -3 version of the CAP ATU-C module provides secondary line protection. The physical differences between the two versions are the part number silkscreened on the module faceplate and the common language equipment identifier (CLEI) code sticker on the module.

5.1.2 CAP ATU-C Module LED Indicators

5.2 Quad-Port STU-C Module Overview

Quad-port STU-C modules contain four SDSL modem connections. Each module transports ATM data at rates of up 1168 kbps over a single twisted pair of copper wire.

The MC can include up to 32 quad-port STU-C modules for a total of 128 SDSL modems. The modems are separated into physical modem pools A and B as shown in Figure 1-2. One Cisco 6100 Series system can serve up to 128 subscribers if a fully populated MC is used.

A high-speed, internal interface to the STM is also provided through the backplane.

5.3.1 NI Module Types

Three types of NI modules are available for the Cisco 6100 Series system:

5.3.2 NI Module LED Indicators

Figure 5-4 and Figure 5-5 show the three types of NI module faceplates available with the Cisco 6100 Series system. The optical faceplates are labeled differently for OC-3c SMF and OC-3c MMF. Table 5-5 and Table 5-6 describe the functions of the NI module LED indicators.

5.4 SC Module Overview

The SC module is the central processing and control system for the main access MC and any attached LCCs. The SC module contains all software required to perform the following:

The SC module also manages the alarm contacts on the MC backplane for critical, major, and minor alarms.

5.4.1 Statistics Management

The SC module continuously compiles statistics on xTU-C use and reports these statistics over an SNMP-based Ethernet port.

The SC module is equipped with the following ports:

Management ports, alarms, and SNMP traps alert the service provider to alarm conditions.

For more information on statistics management, refer to the ViewRunner for Windows Provisioning and Operation Guide or the ViewRunner for HP OpenView Provisioning and Operation Guide.

5.4.2 SC Module Software

The software on the SC module is stored in Flash memory and can be updated dynamically through the use of TFTP over the 10BaseT Ethernet/LAN port or through an in-band management channel. All provisioning information is stored in local nonvolatile memory. If a power loss occurs, this information is retained by the system.

Note Make sure each network element has
protection from electrical problems from major electrical events (for example, lightning).

Each LIM is equipped with

Use LIMs when it is necessary to oversubscribe (or concentrate) lines to CAP ATU-C ports in the MC.

LIMs are associated with physical modem pools A and B in the MC (see Figure 1-5 and Figure 1-6).


Note In the Cisco 6100 Series system operation, there is a distinction between physical and logical pools. For more information, refer to the ViewRunner for Windows Provisioning and Operation Guide or the ViewRunner for HP OpenView Provisioning and Operation Guide.
