TP-6310 Blade

The TP-6310 blade is a member of AudioCodes series of TrunkPack voice-over-packet
(VoP) communication platform. The blade is a high-density, hot-swappable, resource blade
(form factor 6U PICMG 2.16) with a capacity of up to 2,016 DS0 channels. The blade is
considered a complete gateway / media server module, supporting all necessary functions
for voice, data, and fax streaming over IP networks. The blade is housed in the chassis
front panel and has its own MAC address and IP address.
The blade operates together with the RTM-6310 housed in the rear panel, which provides
the port connections for the following interfaces:

One of the following PSTN interfaces:
•
1+1 STM-1/OC-3
•
Up to three T3 (single, two, or three T3 interfaces)

IP (Gigabit Ethernet)
For more information on the RTM-6310, see Section
The TP-6310 blade provides automatic protection switching (APS) capability (1+1) for STM-
1/OC-3 PSTN interfaces. In HA mode (i.e., two blades housed in the chassis), the blade is
designed for protection capabilities provided by the redundant RTM (RTM-6310 Redundant)
housed in the rear panel (see Section
The blade provides LEDs for indicating various operating status (see Section
23), a Reset pinhole-button, and an RS-232 interface port (labeled 1010). This port
provides RS-232 interface with a computer's serial port (COM), using a DB-9 adapter cable.
The RS-232 port can be used to access the Command-Line Interface (CLI) and receive
error/notification messages.
The TP-6310 blade components are shown in the figure below:
Notes:
•
The Reset pinhole button is reserved for future use.
•
The RS-232 port can be disabled for security, using the DisableRS232 ini file
parameter (refer to the User's Manual).
•
PSTN APS is partially compliant to GR-253 only.
•
The TP-6310 blade supports STM-1/OC-3 or T3 PSTN interface. The supported
interface is determined using the PSTNTransmissionType parameter.
