1. Product Description

The Dialogic

®

 DN/I601TEPHMP Digital Network 

Interface Board (“board”) is a high-density, high-
performance, network interface board in a universal 
PCI form factor with two T1/E1 digital network 
interfaces. This board is designed to be used with 
Dialogic

®

 Host Media Processing (HMP) software 

(Release 2.0 or higher).
The DN/I601TEPHMP Digital Network Interface 
Board includes the following components:

RJ-48C Jacks: 

Two connectors to a T1 or E1 trunk.

General Network Interface Alarm LED: 

When lit, 

indicates an alarm condition is present on one or 

more of the trunks.

Reset LED: 

When lit, indicates that the board is in 

the reset state.

Power LED: 

When lit, indicates power is on. 

SW1: 

Rotary switch used to set board identification 

(Linux system only).

Alarm/Status LEDs: 

A set of four LEDs for each 

trunk. During power-up, the LEDs indicate Power 

On Self Test (POST) status. After the board is 

started, the green, yellow, and red LEDs indicate 

normal operation or Carrier Failure Alarms (CFAs) 

for each trunk as shown in the following table. The 

Loopback LED indicates when the respective 

trunk is in loopback mode.

Additional Information

Additional information about the DN/I601TEPHMP 
Digital Network Interface Board is available from a 
number of sources.
The product data sheet, available at 

http://

www.dialogic.com/products/list.asp

, provides a 

functional description as well as information about 
applications and configurations, features, and 
technical specifications.
Refer to the Release Guide and the online Release 
Update for your Dialogic

®

 Host Media Processing 

(HMP) software release to verify that the DN/
I601TEPHMP Digital Network Interface Board is 
supported in the release and for information on any 
new features or issues that may relate to it.
The Regulatory Notices document that is packed 
with each DN/I601TEPHMP Digital Network 
Interface Board contains safety warnings and 

national requirements for proper operation of 
telecommunications equipment.

2. Before You Begin

Protecting the Board from Damage

CAUTION:

All computer boards are sensitive to 

electrostatic discharge (“ESD”). Handle all static-
sensitive boards and components at a static-safe 
work area, and observe anti-static precautions at all 
times.

If you are not familiar with ESD safety precautions, 
visit http://dialogic.com/support/hwinstall to learn 
more.

Unpacking the Board

CAUTION:

Do not remove the board from the anti-

static packaging until you are ready to install it. 
Observe proper anti-static precautions at all times.

Unpack the board according to the following steps:

1. Prepare a static-safeguarded work area. 

2. Carefully remove the board from the shipping 

carton and static-shielding bag. Handle the 
board by the edges and avoid touching the 
board's components.

3. Lay the board on the static-safe work surface.

Note:

Place boards in static-shielding bags when 

carrying boards from station to station.

Configuring the Board

The following can be configured on the board: 

Board ID

CT Bus Termination

Power-off Default Front End Loopback

Boot Up Default Front End Loopback

Setting the Board ID

The device driver assigns board instance numbers 
in ascending order (beginning with 0) as it detects 
each board in your system. A board instance 
number is the identification (ID) number used by the 
Dialogic

®

 Host Media Processing (HMP) software to 

recognize the board.

Note:

If you add or remove a board, the system 

may change the existing board instance numbers, 

depending on the PCI bus and slot number where 
the board is installed or removed.
In a Windows system, leave 

SW1

 (see Physical 

Layout) set to the factory default of 0 to let the 
system automatically assign board instance 
numbers by PCI bus slot number. After the hardware 
and the Dialogic HMP software are installed, refer to 
the Dialogic

®

 Configuration Manager (DCM) to 

retrieve the assigned board instance ID number(s). 
DCM is a utility that enables you to add new boards 
to your system, start and stop system service, and 
work with board configuration data. This utility can 
be accessed from the Start menu in the Dialogic 
HMP software program folder. For more information 
about board identification, see the DCM online help. 
In a Linux system, you must set 

SW1

 to a unique 

number for each installed board. Use a non-
magnetic screwdriver to turn SW1 to one of 16 
board settings, 0–9 or A–F. After the hardware and 
the Dialogic HMP software are installed, refer to the 
proper configuration files to retrieve the assigned 
board instance ID number(s). For more information 
about Linux configuration files, see the Dialogic 
HMP software release documentation.

Setting CT Bus Termination

This section applies if you are using a CT Bus cable 
to connect your board to other boards in the system.
Bus signals are terminated when the CT Bus jumper 
clip is installed. To terminate bus signals, install a 
jumper clip on the pair of CT Bus termination pins 
only on boards located at each end of the bus cable.
Factory default is unterminated (jumper clip 
removed). 
The following figure shows the pair of pins used for 
CT Bus termination. Refer to 

P5

 in the Physical 

Layout figure for the location of the jumper block.
