Carefully slide the faceplate of the UIM-2E1 under the inside lip of the Mini DSLAM at the
selected port opening such that the UIM-2E1 circuit board is facedown and the UIM-2E1 label
shows through the Mini DSLAM port opening with the UIM-2E1 model name along the right-
hand edge.
z
Ensure that the mounting holes on the UIM-2E1 are lined up with the corresponding pems on
the Mini DSLAM circuit board and that the board-to-board connector key pins are properly
aligned.

Gently press down
across the center
of the UIM-2E1
until
the board-to-board connector
is
fully seated.

Sec
ur
e the UIM-2E1 circuit board to the Mini DSLAM circuit board, at the pems, with the (4)
provided panhead screws.
z
Secure the UIM-2E1 faceplate to the front of the Mini DSLAM using the (2) provided beige
flathead screws.
z
Replace the Mini DSLAM chassis cover and secure with the original (8) beige flathead screws.
2.0 CONNECTING THE E1 LINE(S)
The primary feature of the UIM-2E1 is loop bonding capability, though it functions with a single E1 connection as
well.
2.1 Loop Bonded Connection
Using two E1 lines for one network connection (loop bonding) will net twice the speed and data passing
capability as a single E1 connection. A second E1 line can also be considered a backup for the first, and
vice versa, should one of the lines become disabled. A UIM-2E1 can only establish loop bonded
connections with other Net to Net loop bonding capable E1 provider equipment. See Net to Net's E1 Loop
Bonding Product to Product Feature Compatability list (
http://www.nettonet.com/support/docs/230-
0000035
).
Plug the E1 cables into the E1 RJ45 Ports on the UIM-2E1 faceplate; the order of connection is not
important. Verify both connections: the Port 1 and Port 2 Lnk LEDs on the UIM-2E1 faceplate will flash
green to indicate the connections are established and operational.
2.2 Single E1 Connection
A single line connection can be established between a UIM-2E1 and any of Net to Net's E1 provider
equipment, regardless of loop bonding capability.
Plug the E1 cable into one of the two E1 RJ45 ports on the UIM-2E1 faceplate; either port (1 or 2) may be
used. Verify the connection: the E1 Lnk LED on the UIM-2E1 faceplate (Port 1 Lnk or Port 2 Lnk depending
upon which port was connected) will flash green to indicate the connection is established and operational.
C
AUTION
Blanking plates should be stored for possible future use: if a UIM-2E1 is removed from a
Micro DSLAM, it must be replaced with either another UIM or a blanking plate. DO NOT
OPERATE A MINI DSLAM WITH AN OPEN UIM PORT.
