Installing the Uplink Module Each GranDSLAM 4200 requires an uplink module for connection to the ATM network. If your uplink module was shipped separately from the GranDSLAM 4200, install the uplink module before you connect the unit to a power source. If your GranDSLAM 4200 arrived with an uplink module already installed, proceed to NOTE: The uplink modules are hot swappable.
Page 24
1. Installation 3. Slide the uplink module into the guide rails just inside the opening. Press the uplink module firmly into place until it is fully seated and the faceplate of the uplink module is flush against the faceplate of the GranDSLAM 4200. 4.

This chapter describes all possible connections, not all of which are required: DSL Ports 4201 T1 Uplink Module Connector 4202 E1 Uplink Module Connectors 4203 T1/E1 IMA Uplink Module Port Connectors Console Port Alarm Interface Grounding Lug...
Page 26
2. Cabling DSL Ports The GranDSLAM 4200 DSL connector supports the tip and ring connections of up to 24 DSL ports over a 50-position cable. A POTS (plain old telephone service) splitter connector is also provided. If your model does not contain the integrated POTS splitter, you must connect the unit to a separate POTS splitter.
Page 27
Uplink Module Connectors The following types of uplink modules are available for the unit: Model 4201 T1 Uplink Module Model 4202 E1 Uplink Module Model 4203 T1/E1 IMA Uplink Module 4201 T1 Uplink Module Connector The 4201 T1 Uplink Module has a single RJ48C, 8-pin, unkeyed, shielded connector.
Page 28
2. Cabling 4202 E1 Uplink Module Connectors The 4202 E1 Uplink Module has two connectors, only one of which may be used at a time: The 120 connector – An unbalanced BNC connector with two jacks (TX/RX). To use the 75 commands.
Page 29
3. Connect the other end of the cable to the appropriate network equipment such as a multiplexer. Procedure To connect to the 4202 E1 Uplink Module 75 1. Determine the interface type, and procure the appropriate coaxial cable. 2. Change the connector default to 75 command (LINETYPE=G703SHORT75).
2. Cabling 4203 T1/E1 IMA Uplink Module Port Connectors The 4203 T1/E1 IMA Uplink Module supports eight operational T1/E1 ports, each with an RJ48C, 8-pin, unkeyed, shielded connector. The 4203 uplink module can be used to aggregate up to four other GranDSLAM 4200 units subtended in a stack, allowing up to 120 ports in the stack to be managed with a single Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC).

4. Connect the other end of the cable(s) to the appropriate network equipment such as an ATM switch. Or, if this is the aggregation unit in a stack, connect to one of the following connectors on a basic unit in the stack: —...
2. Cabling Installing the 4203 T1/E1 IMA Uplink DSL Cable Ferrite Choke The 4203 T1/E1 IMA Uplink is shipped with a ferrite choke that must be installed on the DSL cable(s). One choke can accommodate 1–8 cables. Procedure To install the ferrite choke onto the DSL cable(s): 1.
Management Port The MGMT (management) port can be used to connect the GranDSLAM 4200 to a network management system using a 10BaseT or 100BaseT LAN. The MGMT port is isolated and no user data is accessible over it. A straight-through cable is used.
2. Cabling Console Port The CONSOLE port normally serves as the primary user interface with the GranDSLAM 4200 during installation. You can connect a terminal or PC directly to the CONSOLE port using a DTE cable (see procedure below). You can also use the CONSOLE port to attach a modem to the GranDSLAM 4200 for remote dial-in management of the unit using a DCE cable (see procedure on next page).
Page 35
Procedure To connect a modem to the CONSOLE port: 1. Determine and procure the proper DCE cable type. The CONSOLE port requires a DB9 plug connector. The other connector depends on the serial port on your modem, but normally a DB25 plug is required. 2.
2. Cabling Alarm Interface The alarm interface differs, depending on GranDSLAM 4200 model. Model 4210 – The ALARM interface for the Model 4210 consists of three contacts that provide access to to the alarm relays that can be used to set off Major and Minor physical alarms.
Page 37
Procedure To connect the ALARM interface: 1. Strip the tips of the alarm source wires (about 1/2 inch or 12.7 mm in length). 2. For Model 4210, insert the wires into the 3-position plug. Securely fasten each wire by tightening the screw above it. For Models 4220/4230, use a screwdriver to press the orange spring tab in while inserting the wire into the hole below it.
Page 38
2. Cabling 5. Connect the other end of the cable to your alarm monitoring system. Or, for Models 4220 and 4230, you can connect the other end of the cable to an alarm interface on another GranDSLAM 4200 unit so that alarm conditions on both units can be reported through one GranDSLAM 4200.
Grounding Lug Procedure To connect the unit to a ground: 1. Strip back the insulation approximately 5/16 of an inch (8 mm) on 14 AWG copper ground wire. 2. Loosen the screw on the grounding lug located on the side panel near the front of the unit.
2. Cabling Power Connector The GranDSLAM 4200 is powered by a –48 VDC source providing – 40.5 to –57.0 VDC. Dual power feeds are provided (A and B) for redundancy. The terminal block accepts 16 or 18 AWG wire. The 4200 GranDSLAM contains two external fuses, each with a visual spring indicator and an alarm circuit indicator in case the fuse is blown.
Page 41
3. Insert the plug into either the A or B power input terminal on the front panel of the GranDSLAM 4200. Insert the . . . Negative side of the power source Positive side of the power source 4. If the unit is in a rack, dress the power cables to the left and fasten them to the rail with a cable tie.

Configuration Overview The GranDSLAM 4200 is designed to require minimal configuration before it can be accessed by a Network Operations Center (NOC). Initial configuration can be performed using the Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is available from a terminal or PC connected to the CONSOLE port. Additional configuration may be necessary, depending on the mode used to manage the GranDSLAM 4200: Inband management (managing via a PVC from the NOC).
4. Configuration Using the CLI The GranDSLAM 4200 uses Transaction Language No. 1 (TL1) language for CLI commands and messages. These commands and messages are used to configure and maintain the system. See the DSLAM User’s Guide TL1 offers the following features to help you with command entry: Automatic command completion.
You can turn up your GranDSLAM 4200 through the Ethernet connection via a PC or terminal connected to the unit’s CONSOLE port. Then, using a series of TL1 commands or an NMS system such as Paradyne’s GrandVIEW Element Management System (EMS), you configure the unit for operation.
4. Configuration Turn-up Procedure for Inband Management Procedure To turn up the GranDSLAM 4200 using inband management: 1. Manual Mode: At the unit, configure the IP address, net mask, and next-hop router. DHCP Mode: Set the ATM1 physical address using the ENT-VCL TL1 command, or accept the default, which is based on the MAC address assigned to the unit.
6. Change the time, if necessary. The Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP), which maintains the unit’s clock, defaults to enabled. However, you can change the time offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) using the TZOFFSET parameter of the SET-NE-ALL TL1 command. See the GranDSLAM 4200 ATM Stackable DSLAM User’s Guide Configuring the Unit for Operation Once the unit is connected to the network, the following turn-up procedures should...
