Chapter 1 Hardware Installation
EIA Installation
Figure 1-12 A BNC backplane for use in 1:1 protection schemes
The EIA side marked “A” has 24 pairs of BNC connectors. The first 12 pairs of BNC connectors
correspond to Ports 1 – 12 for a 12-port card and map to Slot 2 on the shelf assembly. The BNC connector
pairs are marked “Tx” and “Rx” to indicate transmit and receive cables for each port. You can install an
additional card in Slot 1 as a protect card for the card in Slot 2. The second 12 BNC connector pairs
correspond to Ports 1 – 12 for a 12-port card and map to Slot 4 on the shelf assembly. You can install an
additional card in Slot 3 as a protect card for the card in Slot 4. Slots 5 and 6 do not support DS-3 cards
when BNC connectors are used.
The EIA side marked “B” provides an additional 24 pairs of BNC connectors. The first 12 BNC
connector pairs correspond to Ports 1 – 12 for a 12-port card and map to Slot 14 on the shelf assembly.
The BNC connector pairs are marked “Tx” and “Rx” to indicate transmit and receive cables for each
port. You can install an additional card in Slot 15 as a protect card for the card in Slot 14. The second
12 BNC connector pairs correspond to Ports 1 – 12 for a 12-port card and map to Slot 16 on the shelf
assembly. You can install an additional card in Slot 17 as a protect card for the card in Slot 16. Slots 12
and 13 do not support DS-3 cards when BNC connectors are used.
When BNC connectors are used with a DS3N-12 card in Slot 3 or 15, the 1:N card protection extends
only to the two slots adjacent to the 1:N card due to BNC wiring constraints.
1.6.2 High-Density BNC EIA
The ONS 15454 High-Density BNC EIA supports 48 DS-3 circuits on each side of the ONS 15454 (48
transmit and 48 receive connectors). If you install BNC EIAs on both sides of the unit, the ONS 15454
hosts up to 96 circuits. The High-Density BNC EIA supports Trompeter UCBJ224 (75 Ohm) 4 leg
connectors (King or ITT are also compatible). You can use High-Density BNC EIAs for DS-3 (including
the DS3XM-6) or EC-1 cards. Figure 1-13 shows the ONS 15454 with pre-installed High-Density BNC
EIAs.
