Adding Hardware
This section describes the procedures for increasing the number of input-output
lines by connecting a number of ATM Switch units or an ATM Switch unit with
other hardware.
Although the number of lines accommodated can be increased by connecting a
number of ATM Switch units, since the ATM Switch is not equipped with an
interface dedicated to connections between units, the actual number of lines
accommodated is the total number of lines less the number of lines between the
units.
Preparation
Before expanding the ATM Switch connections, have the following equipment
ready.
„
The additional hardware: the ATM Switch or other hardware
„
Line cards for connecting the hardware (not necessary if you plan to use line
cards already installed)
„
Cables for connecting the hardware: cables meeting the line cards (not
necessary if you plan to use cables already connected)
„
MAT (not necessary if one is already connected to the ATM Switch)
„
RS-232C cross cable for connecting the MAT to the ATM Switch: 1 cable (not
necessary if already connected)
„
Phillips screw driver
„
Antistatic kit and gloves
Setting the New
ATM Switch
If the additional hardware is the ATM Switch, refer to this manual. If the additional
hardware is not an ATM Switch, refer to the manual on that hardware.
