Figure 9-107. Carrier Rewiring ExampleRear View of Five-Carrier Cabinet
After cabling changes are made and verified, power must be restored to the port
network. Circuit packs in carriers that are not part of the shortened bus are not
inserted. As a result, these circuit packs are alarmed. Ignore these alarms for
now. All alarms should be resolved when the cabinet is restored to its original
configuration.
Procedure 4 is organized into two parts. Part 1 attempts to clear the TDM Bus
fault by replacing all the bus cabling and terminators within a port-network. Part 2
attempts to isolate the fault to a particular carrier by extending the TDM Bus from
the control carrier to additional carriers one at a time.
!
WARNING:
Power must be removed from the entire port network before any cables or
terminators are removed. Failure to follow this procedure can cause
damage to circuit packs and power supplies, and can be hazardous to the
technician.
Part 1
