4.4 CDM-600/600L Modem Connections
If adding a modem to an operating 1:N system, care needs to be taken to not interfere with the existing
traffic. The cabling and power-up sequence must be correct to avoid contention in the system from the
modem Tx carrier. This sequence is detailed in
Chapter 7.4.5 (CONFIG) ACTIVE MODEMS.
MPORTANT
Traffic modems with differing data types can all be supported by the Redundant
Modem.
4.4.1 Control and Data Connections – CRS-300 to Modems
The 25-pin Control/Data Cable CA/WR0066 provides the EIA-422/-232/LVDS traffic data path
and serial communication path between the Switch and the modems, and is therefore always
required even if the data type is G.703.
MPORTANT
Depending on the traffic data type, the appropriate jumper settings are
provided on the TMI to ensure proper operation for EIA-422
with RTS/CTS,
DTR/DSR signals using the CRS-340 TMI, and for HSSI
with CA/TA signals
using the CRS-370 TMI. Refer to Chapter 4. MODEM, TMI, AND SWITCH
CONFIGURATION for this important configuration information.
Refer to Figure 4-7 to connect and secure the CA/WR0066 cables between each CDM-600/600L and
the CRS-300 as follows:
• DB-25M connector labeled “P1” on the RMI or TMI(s), to
• DB-25F connector labeled “P3B Data Interface” on the CDM-600/600Ls.
If G.703 is the traffic data type, also connect the CA/WR9038-6 data cable, used for either
Balanced or Unbalanced G.703 data, as follows:
• DB-15M connector labeled “P2” on the RMI or TMI(s), to
• DB-15F connectors labeled “P7 Balanced G.703” on the CDM-600/600Ls.
