About This Document This guide is written for administrators and technicians who install devices at the central office (CO) or at a Network Service Provider (NSP) location adjacent to the CO. It should be used in conjunction with the appropriate Hotwire DSL card User’s Guide or Network Configuration Guide, which describes how to plan the data networks surrounding the DSLAM and specific DSL cards.
The 8610 DSLAM accepts the following types of cards: H Management Control Processor (MCP). This is a processor card that administers and provides diagnostic connectivity to the DSL cards. It acts as a mid-level manager and works in conjunction with an SNMP network management system, such as HP OpenView, via its LAN port. It gathers operational status for each of the DSL cards and responds to the SNMP requests. It also has a serial port for local terminal access. H MVL, RADSL and DSL cards.
H Stackable Chassis for DSL Access Growth Each chassis is an independent, standalone system. The 8610 and 8600 chassis are interoperable in a stack. The stackable design provides for six systems to share management access through a single MCP card (for 8610) or MCC card (for 8600) which, in turn, allows an additional slot for a DSL card in each of up to five additional systems.

Preinstallation Considerations Consider the following before performing installation of the 8610 chassis: H Installation Site Your installation site should be well ventilated, clean, and free of environmental extremes. If you are installing the Hotwire 8610 DSLAM chassis in a central office rack, make sure there is 2 to 3 feet of clearance at the front of the rack in which the 8610 chassis is to be installed to allow access for the installation of the chassis, circuit cards, and cables.
— 14-foot serial cable and DB25 and DB9 adapters are shipped with the MCP card. For connection to a modem, you will need a NULL modem adapter. If there is adequate maintenance space at the rear of the rack, mount the chassis on the rack before installing cables. If there is inadequate space to do this, install the rear-mounted network connectors on the chassis before mounting the chassis on the rack.

Hotwire 8610 DSLAM Chassis Installation The Hotwire 8610 DSLAM chassis is designed to be stacked one on top of the other on a desktop or table, or mounted in a 19-or 23-inch rack (front or center mount). Up to three 8610 chassis can be stacked on a table or desktop. Mounting brackets are provided for mounting in 19- or 23-inch racks. You will need a large, flat-blade screwdriver and a Phillips screwdriver to install the 8610 chassis in a commercial EIA-standard 19- or 23-inch rack.
Interconnecting 8610 Systems " Procedure To interconnect multiple 8610 systems: 1. Connect the end of an 8-pin modular cable into the Management OUT port of the base chassis. 2. Dress the 8-pin modular cable to the left and under the chassis, behind the foot, and up the side of the unit. 3. Plug the other end of the 8-pin modular cable into the Management IN port of the 8610 chassis above, dressing the cable as in the previous step. 4.
The following illustration shows the designated number for each DSL card slot in a stack. NOTE: This illustration shows a stack of six Hotwire 8610 systems, which is valid for rack mounting. However, the same relationship of software-assigned slot numbers applies to two stacks of three each, mounted on a desk or tabletop and connected by a bus cable. The base chassis must still have the MCP card in physical Slot 1 with the base chassis Stack Position switch set to 1.
Installing the 8610 Chassis in a Rack with Threaded Screw Holes NOTE: You may want to install the three supplied #4-40 Phillips pan-head screws for the rear Telco connectors on the rear connectors before rack mounting the DSLAM. This will make them readily available when needed. See Installing Network Tip and Ring Connections on page 21 for more information. " Procedure To install the 8610 chassis in a rack that has threaded screw holes: 1.
Installing the 8610 Chassis in a Rack without Threaded Screw Holes " Procedure To install the 8610 chassis in a rack that does not have threaded screw holes: 1. Install the mounting brackets on the 8610 chassis. — For a 19-inch rack installation, the notched flange of the mounting bracket is placed against the side of the 8610 chassis. — For a 23-inch rack installation, the smaller flange of the mounting bracket is placed against the side of the 8610 chassis. 2.
Center-Mounting the 8610 Chassis in a Rack " Procedure To center-mount the 8610 chassis in a rack: 1. Determine the preferred placement of the 8610 chassis in the rack. Then, mark the appropriate locations for the mounting screws on the rack. 2. Reposition the mounting brackets to the center-mount position using the four #8-32 screws supplied with the chassis. 3. Fasten the chassis to the rack.
Supplying Power The Hotwire 8610 DSLAM chassis is available in two versions: H dc power (– 40.0 to – 60.0 Vdc; maximum current draw is 2 amps) — The dc version has two separate dc inputs, A and B, to provide power redundancy. H ac power (100–250V; 50–60 Hz; maximum current draw is 3 amps @ 110 Vac) — The ac version can provide power redundancy if a separate – 48 Vdc source is connected to the B input terminal.

2. Insert the wires for the dc power source into the appropriate terminal and securely fasten each wire by tightening the screw above it. The insulation should be fully within the terminal block and no bare wire should be exposed outside of the block. NOTE: You should clearly label these power source wires as – 48V and RTN respectively. Insert Power Source B’s . . . Into the . . . Negative side – 48V B input terminal. Positive side RTN B (return) terminal. 3.
When swapping a new card for an old card, it is important to note that the 8610 DSLAM retains the Media Access Control (MAC) address, also referred to as the physical address. This means that the new card will have the same MAC address as the old one. NOTES: — All standalone 8610 chassis (i.e., chassis that are not daisy-chained to other Hotwire 8610 DSLAM chassis) require an MCP card in Slot 1, but only the base chassis of a multisystem stack requires an MCP card. — Do not discard filler plates.
NOTE: For detailed information about the configuration and operation of the circuit card, see the appropriate card User’s Guide. Verifying the Installation To verify the hardware installation, observe the following indicators: H The PWR A and/or PWR B LEDs on the front panel must be in the ON state (green): — If you are using a single – 48 Vdc power source, then only the green PWR A LED will be ON. — If you are using dual Vdc power sources, then both the green PWR A and PWR B LEDs will be ON.
NOTE: If you are connecting the Hotwire 8610 DSLAM to a CO POTS splitter, this procedure assumes that the CO POTS splitter shelf is already installed. For information on how to install the CO POTS splitter, refer to the Hotwire POTS Splitter Central Office Installation Instructions, Document No. 5020-A2-GN10. Installing Network Tip and Ring Connections " Procedure To connect a port card in the 8610 chassis to a POTS splitter shelf or MDF: 1.
Connecting Ethernet Connections to the IPC or Ethernet Hubs Use this procedure for connecting RADSL and MVL cards to the IPC or Ethernet hubs. For other types of cards, refer to the appropriate Installation Instructions. " Procedure To connect the DSL cards to the Ethernet hubs or switches: 1. Plug the end of an 8-pin modular cable into the appropriate 10 BASE T port of the 8610 chassis. For example, if you want to connect to a DSL card in Slot 2, insert the 8-pin modular cable into the 10 BASE T Slot #2.
