MCC Card
The MCC card is a single resource in the HotWire DSLAM that provides
consolidated management access for the DSL cards and the HotWire 5446 RTU
from any one of the following:
 SNMP management systems, such as Paradyne’s DCE Manager
 Remote telnet sessions
 Local asynchronous terminal
 Remote asynchronous terminal connected to a modem
The MCC card connects to the NMS network via its 10BaseT interface. It
performs alarm monitoring of the DSL cards, the HotWire DSLAM power and
cooling systems, and interfaces to the CO alarm system. It also interfaces with
external managers and servers (e.g., File Transfer Protocol servers) for system
configuration and management.
DSL Cards
Each DSL card in the HotWire DSLAM chassis contains four DSL ports with
on-board packet forwarding functionality. The outputs of the four DSL ports are
combined onto one 10BaseT interface for connecting to the Internet or Intranet.
