Chapter 3 BPX Switch Common Core Components
Broadband Controller Card (BCCs)
Broadband Controller Card (BCCs)
The Broadband Controller Card is a microprocessor-based system controller and is used to control the
overall operation of the BPX switch. The controller card is a front card that is usually equipped as a
redundant pair.
Slots number 7 and number 8 are reserved for the primary and secondary (standby) broadband controller
cards. Each broadband controller front card requires a corresponding back card.
•
For non-redundant nodes, a single BCC is used in front slot number 7 with its appropriate backcard.
•
For redundant nodes, a pair of BCCs of matching type, are used in front slot numbers 7 and 8.
Note
The three types of BCCs with their proper backcards may be operated together temporarily
for maintenance purposes, for example, replacing a failed controller card. Throughout a
network, individual BPX switches may have either a single BCC-4V controller card or a
pair of the identical type of BCC.
