Connecting the Protection Splitters and Protection Signaling
Cable
Each splitter has three ports:
•
System plug (“Sys”) –
The system plug should be connected to the PTP 820S
’s management
port.
•
Management port (“Mng”) –
A
standard CAT5E cable should be connected to the splitter’s
management port in order to utilize out-of-band (external) management.
Note
Even for systems that use in-band management, initial configuration of an HSB
protection configuration must be performed manually using out-of-band management.
•
Protection signaling port (“Prot”) –
A Protection signaling cross cable, as described above,
should be connected between this port and the other “Prot” port of the
second splitter on the
mate PTP 820S unit.
