2.3 6310
Blade
The 6310 blade is a member of AudioCodes’ 6310 series TrunkPack cPCI VoP
communication platform. The blade is a high-density, hot-swappable, cPCI resource blade
(form factor 6U PICMG 2.16) with a capacity of up to 2,016 DS0 channels, supporting all
necessary functions for voice, data, and fax streaming over IP networks. The blade is
considered a complete gateway / media server module. The blade occupies one slot of a
cPCI chassis, and features its own MAC and IP address. In addition, the blade provides
automatic protection switching (APS) capability (1+1) for STM-1/OC-3 PSTN interfaces.
The blade is housed in the chassis' front-panel slot, providing an RS-232 port, a reset
button, and various LEDs.

2-6: 6310 Blade
The blade is supplied with a rear input/output (I/O) module referred to as the
Rear
Transition Module
(RTM). The RTM-6310 provides the I/O connections to the supported
interfaces: IP, and one STM-1/OC-3 or three T3 PSTN interfaces. For a detailed
description of the RTM-6310, refer to ''RTM-6310 Rear Transition Module''
on page
For Mediant 3000 systems, the blade is designed for protection capabilities. The redundant
RTM (RTM-6310 Redundant), housed in the rear panel, provides 6310 blade redundancy
protection by routing all calls between the active blade (previously redundant) and the
RTM. The RTM-6310 Redundant itself does not provide any PSTN ports. For a detailed
description of the RTM-6310 Redundant, refer to ''RTM-6310 Redundancy Rear Transition
Module'' on page
Notes:
•
PSTN APS is partially compliant to GR-253 only.
•
The 6310 blade supports either STM-1/OC-3 or T3 PSTN interface,
depending on software configuration (using the PSTNTransmissionType
ini
file parameter).
•
HA (i.e., blade protection) is applicable only to Mediant 3000 systems.
