Preface The Nortel Networks* ATM T3/E3 PMC module provides an interface to support unchannelized T3 or E3 operation for ATM applications. In this guide, the Passport* 5430 Multiservice Access Switch is referred to as the Passport 5430. Before You Begin This guide is intended for qualified service personnel who are installing or replacing the ATM T3/E3 PMC module into the Passport 5430.
ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Supplement Acronyms This guide uses the following acronyms: AC alternating current AIS alarm indicator signal ATM asynchronous transfer mode CRU customer-replaceable unit DC direct current OOF out of frame LED light emitting diode PCI peripheral component interconnect PMC PCI mezzanine card RAI remote alarm indicator WAN wide area network Hard-Copy Technical Manuals You can print selected technical manuals and release notes free, directly from the Internet.
Preface How to Get Help If you purchased a service contract for your Nortel Networks product from a distributor or authorized reseller, contact the technical support staff for that distributor or reseller for assistance.
Chapter 1 Using the ATM T3/E3 PMC Module This document supplements Installing and Operating the Passport 5430 Multiservice Access Switch. Follow the hardware installation steps in that manual, then refer to this document for information specific to the ATM T3/E3 PMC module. Warning: The ATM T3/E3 PMC module is designed to operate in the Passport 5430 Multiservice Access Switch only. Attempting to use the ATM T3/E3 PMC module in any other product may be hazardous and invalidates the regulatory approval.
ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Supplement Verifying Shipment Contents If you have just received the T3/E3 PMC module, make sure your shipment is complete and undamaged. You should inspect all items for shipping damage. If you detect any damage, do not install this module into the Passport 5430. Call the Nortel Networks Technical Solutions Center in your area (see “How to Get Help” on -xv). In addition to the ATM T3/E3 PMC module and this guide, your shipping container should contain other hardware accessories.

Shipping Contents Preparing to Install the ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Before beginning the installation, verify the following: 313889-A Rev 00 • You have the proper equipment and tools; see “Tools and Cables” on page 1-4. • You have the communications devices and the cabling that you need to attach to the PMC module; see “Tools and Cables” on page 1-4.
ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Supplement Tools and Cables To install the ATM T3/D3 PMC module into the Passport 5430 you need a Phillips screwdriver and the following equipment: • Two 75 ohm mini-SMB to BNC adapters (part of the shipping contents) • Two 75 ohm coaxial cables Setting AC or DC Coupling If differences in ground potential exist throughout your cabling, you can designate AC or DC coupling for the transmitting and receiving interfaces.
Using the ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Table 1-2 shows the jumper pins that are associated with the receiving and transmitting interfaces. Table 1-2. ATM T3 or E3 Interface Coupling Interface Jumper Pins TX – Transmits data J1 RX – Receives data J2 To install a jumper head, go to the next section. To remove a jumper head, go to “Removing a Jumper Head” on page 1-6. Installing a Jumper Head To DC couple an ATM T3 or E3 interface, install the jumper head as follows: 1.
ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Supplement Removing a Jumper Head An interface is AC coupled if there is no jumper head on the associated jumper pins. If you want to change an interface coupling from DC to AC, remove the jumper head as follows: 1. Locate the jumper pins you want to configure (Figure 1-2 on page 1-4). 2. Grasp the jumper head with your fingers, then pull it up (Figure 1-4). T3E3014 Figure 1-4.
Using the ATM T3/E3 PMC Module To install the PMC module on the system processor card: 1. Attach an antistatic wrist strap. Caution: Electrostatic discharge can damage hardware. You must wear the antistatic wrist strap whenever you handle printed circuit boards. Refer to the instructions enclosed with your antistatic wrist strap to attach it. 2. Holding the PMC module with the connectors facing down, slide it into the opening on the system processor card (Figure 1-5). 3.

Insert and tighten the four screws to secure the PMC module to the system processor card (Figure 1-6). m ste r Sy esso oc Pr NC SY AIS F OO I RA ATM T3/E3 TX RX T3E3003A Figure 1-6. Securing the PMC Module to the System Processor Card 5. Install the system processor card into the chassis. For instructions, see Installing a System Processor Card in the Passport 5430 Multiservice Access Switch.
Using the ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Attaching Cables The ATM T3/E3 PMC module provides two T3 or E3 interfaces, as described in Table 1-3. Table 1-3. ATM T3/E3 Interfaces Interface Function TX Transmits data RX Receives data To connect to either interface, see “Connecting to the ATM Interface” on page 1-9. Connecting to the ATM Interface The ATM T3/E3 PMC module has two interfaces, one that transmits data and one that receives data.
ATM T3/E3 PMC Module Supplement 2. Connect the other end of the adapter to the 75 ohm BNC cable. 3. Connect the BNC cable to the T3/E3 communications device. 4. Arrange the cable in the cable loom. For instructions, see Installing and Operating the Passport 5430 Multservice Access Swtich. Interpreting LEDs The ATM T3/E3 PMC module has four LEDs (Figure 1-8).
