Y-cable pinout. When a Y cable is used to connect an Appliance Card to a
PBX SMDR port, the Card assumes that the other device connected to the Y
cable (e.g., a computer) is providing the handshake signal to request receive
data (the Card does not provide flow control). If the other device is powered
off or is not providing the handshake, SMDR data is not sent to the Card.
If the PBX is correctly configured to send SMDR, but the Card does not
receive SMDR data when connected to the PBX, verify the following:
The other device connected to the Y cable is powered on and
functioning properly.
The SMDR Y cable is built correctly.
Connect the Ethernet cable for Server communication and, if used, VoIP
circuits.
When you give the Appliance Card the IP address and port number for the
Server during out-of-box configuration, the Card will begin initiating
contact with the Server; however, it will be unable to establish a connection
until you add its IP address to the Server's list of authorized Card IP
addresses via the Performance Manager in a later step.
(
1000 Series Appliances only
) If VoIP is to be monitored, also connect the
Ethernet cable(s) for each VoIP Span. VoIP Span Ethernet connections are
configured in the Performance Manager during Span configuration.
It is strongly recommended that you connect the Appliance to an
uninterruptible power supply. AC versions of all Appliances are available.
A DC version of the 3200 Appliance is also available. Use the applicable
procedure below to connect power to the Appliance.
WARNING
To ensure equipment and personnel safety, before connecting
power to the Appliance, refer to the
ETM
®
System Safety and Regulatory
Compliance Information Guide
packaged with your hardware.
WARNING
If an Appliance power fault condition occurs, disconnect the Appliance power cord
from the rack power supply, not at the Appliance itself.
