Cisco 6160 Quad-Port Flexi ATU-C to Octal-Port DMT ATU-C Line Card Conversion Procedures
OL-0992-01
Conversion Prerequisites
Software and Network Management Requirements
The following bullets list the minimum software and network management requirements for the line card
conversion procedures:
• IOS—Release 12.1(6)DA
• Cisco DSL Manager (CDM)—Release 3.3(2) (optional)
Configuration Requirements
To accommodate 8xDMTs in a Cisco 6160 with a POTS splitter configuration, it is necessary to have
one of the following third-party POTS splitter configurations installed with your Cisco 6160 system:
• One 528 POTS splitter
• Two 128 POTS splitters
The Champ connector pinouts on the back of the Cisco 6160 chassis are mapped for octal-port line cards.
If industry-standard unshielded twisted pair (UTP) 50-pin Champ cables are currently used in your
configuration, there is no need to change the cables. See the “Port Mapping of Subscriber Connectors to
Slots and Ports” section on page 15 for port mapping information.
