Management Modules
A Craft Management Module (CMM or CMM-1) or System Management Module (SMM,
SMM-1, or SMM-2) polls the application and power supply modules installed in the chassis
for status information. Both modules accommodate firmware upgrades in the field,
however, such upgrades may be service affecting under certain circumstances, so ARRIS
recommends performing upgrades in a service maintenance window.
For local monitoring, load CHP-CMS Craft Management Software on a portable computer,
connect this “Craft terminal” to either the CMM, CMM-1, SMM or SMM-1, and use the Craft
Management Software to set up and monitor the status of modules installed in a single chassis.
For local and remote monitoring, CORView Element Management Software can be used with an
SMM, SMM-1, or SMM-2.
In addition to local monitoring of its own chassis, the SMM, SMM-1, or SMM-2 allows you to
remotely set up, manage, and monitor the chassis containing the SMM and up to nine
additional chassis with a CMM installed in each chassis using SNMP.
For a detailed description of the CMM, CMM-1, SMM, and SMM-1, see Chapter 5. For a
detailed description of the SMM-2, see Chapter 6.
Application Modules
CHP Max application modules slide into the chassis, plugging into the backplane. Optical and
RF connectors are made to the application modules installed in the chassis. Front panel LEDs
and testpoints simplify local setup and monitoring.

DANGER
Laser Radiation
—Avoid direct exposure to laser radiation. Transmitted light
will be invisible to the human eye but may be present. Disconnected optical connectors
may emit this invisible optical radiation. Depending upon output power, laser light,
visible or invisible, can seriously injure eyes or even cause blindness. Do not stare into
beam or view directly with optical instruments or view without using safety glasses.
WARNING Personal injury might result if instructions are not followed.
CAUTION Equipment damage might result if instructions are not followed.
