HAPTER 5: CABLING THE SYSTEM
Cabling for System Fault Reporting
A timing and alarms (TAC) daughter card on the Management module

You can configure which incoming faults the system reports on and which of
those signals to send out to an external indication device. For more
information, see the Cuda 12000 IP Access Switch documentation suite.
