HAPTER 1: HARDWARE OVERVIEW
Management Module
The Management module (Figure 1-4) controls the operations of the chassis.
It maintains and executes the Cuda 12000 management functionality,
including:
■ DHCP
■ TFTP
■ DNS/DDNS
■ Time of Day
■ Syslog
■ Configuration File Manager
■ LDAP
The Management module supports internal Stratum-3 clock functionality.
The Stratum-3 oscillator is an optional feature that provides a backup for the
external clock source. If the external source should fail, the Cuda 12000’s
internal clock will have the accuracy of a Stratum-3 clock, resulting in a
systematic packet loss of less than one packet per hour.
■ The 1x4 DOCSIS, 1x4 DOCSIS SpectraFlow, 1x4
EuroDOCSIS, and 1x4 EuroDOCSIS SpectraFlow modules
only use the top four F connectors (upstream) and the
single bottom F connector (downstream). These modules
do not utilize the remaining three F connectors.
