Alarm Port

A dedicated 6-way RJ11 connector is presented on the CPU card rear panel, which
contains two voltage-free changeover relays used to indicate major and minor alarms.
These may be linked to ancillary equipment or the network control centre for
equipment monitoring.
The active Slot 0 CPU card monitors the status of all other cards in the chassis. A range
of conditions activate the Minor Alarm relay to indicate the alarm condition, such as loss
of carrier. Any V200 slot reporting a hardware failure condition generates a Major
Alarm. The alarm relays are not used on the standby Slot 0 card or Slot n CPU cards.

Gigabit Ethernet Router

The HSCPU card includes an integrated IP Router, presented on the RJ45 connectors for
the two triple speed Gigabit Ethernet ports. The majority of applications now demand IP
connectivity in the field, as well as the established voice and data facilities and to
support this the V200 presents an integrated 10/100/1000 base-T port capable of
supporting IPv4 bridging and/or routing functions over a satellite link. IP traffic is
carried over the proprietary V200 link structure alongside other media. This confers a
number of benefits such as improved fragmentation, efficiency and low latency.
The HSCPU card offers bridging and static routing capability with DHCP Server/Relay
functions built in. A UDP relay function enhances this by allowing communication
between a remote client and a server on the home network. Users can plug their laptop
into the remote V200 and log in to their home network, surf the internet and pick up E-
mail.
The V200 IP port may also be used to provide IP aggregate connectivity between V200s
over an intermediate IP network thus enabling data and voice to be carried over an IP-
based infrastructure. The technology is not Voice over IP but Voice and IP.

2.2.1.3 Serial Data Card

The serial data card presents four identical, independent sync/async serial data port
interfaces for use in tributary or aggregate operation.
Not only does the Serial Data Card operate up to 10Mbps on each port but it can also
operate at very low data rates for legacy support.
All four serial ports are presented via a single 68-way VHDCI connector. A four-way
adaptor cable is supplied which presents each port on an individual high density 15-way
D-type connector. This may then be used in combination with our range of type-specific
interface cables. An additional 8 channels are supported by the addition of an
expansion card which presents two further 68-way VHDCI connectors.
Each serial card can provide 4/12 data connections for the slot it is assigned to. A serial
card may be configured to provide a redundancy feature for another serial card.

2.2.1.4 E1 Digital Voice Card

The Digital Voice Card allows Primary rate ISDN circuits to be terminated by a V200 via
an E1 interface, and protocol stacks switch and route calls throughout the V200
