Hardware installation for the G700 Media Gateway and S8300 Media Server

For detailed descriptions of the media modules see Hardware Description and Reference for

Avaya Communication Manager, 555-245-207.

A maximum of 3 MM717 24-port DCP Media Modules can be installed in a

single G700. Also, the ports on the MM717 are intended for in-building use only.

Phone lines connected to those ports are not to be routed out-of-building. Failure

to comply with this restriction could cause harm to personnel or equipment.

A shielded cable for the MM710 Media Module is required to meet emission

requirements in European Union countries. The use of a shielded cable for the

MM710 is preferred for installations worldwide.

The media modules enable the G700, with its primary controller, to host a variety of functions

ranging from IP phones to traditional analog telephony ports. The media modules contain trunk

or line interfaces and their associated circuitry. Each of the four media module slots has access

to the 512-time-slot TDM bus, a 10/100 base T port, power (+5V, -48 V phantom) and ground.

Each media module can be accessed and reset from the G700 Media Gateway Processor

(MGP) or from the primary controller, and its status is indicated by an LED display.

What are data expansion modules
