3DB 23063 ADAA - Rev 004 July 2007
requirements are detailed in Table 3-3 on page 3-9.
During April 2007 an updated IDCe (INUe chassis) was introduced. This IDCe
accepts a new 2RU FAN and also the current 1RU FANs.
The updated IDCe is form-fit-function compatible with the previous IDCe, and
retains its 002 part number extension.
One 2RU FAN is supplied as standard with the updated IDCe.
Table 3-3 details the plug-in requirements during the installation. Unless
specified by the customer, plug-ins will not be installed in an INU/INUe at
shipment. Instead, each is individually packed within the shipping box.
For details on plug-ins, refer to Plug-in Cards on page 3-15, Volume II.
For user-interface connector and cable data, refer to Appendix C.
Priority Details
All slots must be filled with either a plug-in or a blanking panel.
Failure to do so will compromise EMC integrity and distribution of
FAN cooling air.
RAC, DAC, and AUX plug-ins can be fitted in any universal slot.
DAC, and AUX plug-ins can be fitted in any restricted slot. The
exceptions are the DAC 155oM and AUX, which must only be
installed in slots 1 to 6 when they are to be configured to carry/access
9500 MXC NMS, otherwise they can be installed in slots 7 to 9.
The NCC, FAN, and NPC plug-ins have dedicated slots. The NCC
and FAN are required plug-ins, the NPC is optional.
When installing a 16xE1/DS1 DAC, use slots to the right side for
easier trib cable management.
Multiple AUX plug-ins can be installed per INU/INUe.
Only one NPC is required to provide the NCC protection option. An
NPC must be installed in slot 4 of an INU, or slot 10 of an INUe.
