Introduction
This chapter provides the basic procedure to bring up a C4c CMTS system. This is not a software upgrade procedure: it
assumes that the chassis is not yet in service. Installing the chassis, modules, and cards and configuring the system are
addressed in this condensed reference. It is advisable to read through this information and become familiar with the order
of operation before you begin.
This chapter describes a minimal system configuration to be used for basic bring-up. The minimal configuration consists of
one System Control Module (SCM), one Router Control Module (RCM), one 12U Cable Access Module (CAM) and 16D/XD
CAM.
