Upgrading a TN2312AP to a TN2312BP IP Server Interface circuit pack

Upgrading a TN2312AP to a TN2312BP IP Server
Interface circuit pack
There may be an occasion when customers may want to upgrade their TN2312AP Internet Protocol
Server Interface (IPSI) circuit pack to a TN2312BP. For an S8700 or S8710 IP-Connect configuration,
the TN2312BP offers new functionality, including emergency transfer and CPE alarming.
The TN2312BP also is required if the customer wants to move from duplex reliability to high reliability
in an IP Connect configuration. But this also requires that the customer use G650 Media Gateways.
You do not need to change any of the IPSI translations, assuming the functionality stays the same.
However, there is a new alarming feature that needs to be administered.
The TN2312BP Internet Protocol Server Interface (IPSI-2) circuit pack is a hot swappable item. You do
not need to power down the media gateway to replace it.
