3.8 TDM Channel Module and Channel Access Module
Installation
The NetXpress shelf can accommodate up to 12 TDM channel modules and 4 channel access modules
(CAMs). (Figure 3-4) Most existing Intraplex TDM channel modules are compatible with the NetXpress
multiplexer (Section 2.5.1 –
Compatibility with Intraplex TDM Channel Modules
).
Figure 3-4. Front View of NetXpress Shelf with Cover Removed
TDM channel modules can be installed in slots 1 through 12 of the NetXpress shelf. CAMs are designed
to be inserted into the connectors in slots 13, 14, 15, and 16. You could use slot 15 for a redundant
NIM-1 instead of a CAM. (The
Intraplex NetXpress AVC-1 Installation and Operation
manual gives
more information on video modules.)
Note:
When installing any channel module, you
must
first install the module adapter.
3.8.1
Module Adapter Installation
Each TDM channel module requires an installed module adapter (MA) to provide an electrical interface
to external equipment. Before plugging a TDM channel module into the shelf slot, install the module’s
associated module adapter into the matching slot on the back of the chassis.
3.8.2
Remote Control Operation
Each TDM channel module includes a small switch labeled REMOTE. To allow remote management of
the TDM channel modules via the NetXpress Home page or SNMP, enable the REMOTE mode on each
module.
3.8.3
SCB Address Selection
In order to permit remote management of the TDM channel modules via the NetXpress Home page or
SNMP, you must assign a unique SCB address for each module installed into the NetXpress chassis.
For consistency and ease of identification, we recommend that you set the SCB address to match the
physical slot occupied by the channel module within the NetXpress chassis. Channel modules installed
into slots 1-6 have access to Bus 1 (TDM1A and TDM1B), while modules installed in slots 7-12 access
Bus 2 (TDM2A and TDM2B). Table 3-2 shows the switch positions required to assign the SCB address
to a TDM channel module.
