Installing A New Port Board; Preparing The Port Board - Avaya S8730 Maintaining Manual

Next steps
• If you removed the board because it was faulty, set the board aside to be returned.
• If you removed the board to move it to another server, verify that the jumper settings
on the board are correct and then follow procedures for installing a new board.
Port boards from the S8730 server use the PCI-e form factor and cannot be moved
to an S3400 or S3500 server. Also, be sure that the port board you are moving is the
same switch-integration type as the board in the target MAS.
• The power budgeting jumper must be set to disabled on all Dialogic boards used in
the S8730 server. If necessary, verify that the jumper is set correctly on all boards in
the server.

Preparing the port board

Prerequisites
Verify that you are observing all ESD safety precautions before unwrapping the new port
board.
Do not remove the board from the anti-static packaging until you are ready to work
with it.
For each type of port board, you must set certain jumpers and switches. Use the Dialogic
documentation to locate required items on the boards or to verify cable connections.
Note:
The Dialogic documentation describes more setups than the ones used for Modular
Messaging. If information in the Dialogic documentation conflicts with this document, follow
the steps in the Avaya documentation.
The power budgeting jumper must be set to disabled on all Dialogic cards.
