About modem connections

Note:

You cannot connect USB modems to rotary lines. A touch tone line is required.

Note:

The TN8400AP Media Server circuit pack supports a USB modem. The modem communicates

directly to the maintenance processor or tunnels through to the Communication Manager

processor application. The modem provides Avaya Services with remote alarming and dial-in

and dial-out access.

Connect the USB modem to the port that is labeled USB on the media server cable adapter.

The adapter is mounted on the rear of the TN8400AP Media Server circuit pack.

You set the modem options when you configure the media server. You do not set options on the

modems themselves.

In a new installation, the S8400 Media Server is installed only in the Avaya G650 Media

Gateway.

In a migration, the media server is installed only in the following Avaya Media Gateways:

G600

●

CMC1

●

The media servers also work with Avaya G150, G250, G350, and G700 Media Gateways.

These gateways register with the media server either through the Processor Ethernet interface

or through a TN799DP C-LAN circuit pack.

Like a C-LAN circuit pack, Processor Ethernet provides connectivity to IP endpoints, gateways,

and adjuncts. The PE interface is a logical connection in the Communication Manager software

that uses a port on the NIC in the server. No additional hardware is needed to implement PE.
