MT245A), or 75-ohm dual coax to the network and X.21 to the terminal (MT246A). The EIA-530 terminal interface can also be adapted to X.21 using an EIA RS-530 to CCITT X.21 adapter cable (call Black Box). The MicroNTU G.703 Card is designed to mount in the MicroRack 2, 4, 8, or 16 (RM202, RM204, RM208, RM216).
CHAPTER 3: Configuration 3. Configuration The MicroNTU G.703 Card (MT245A) uses seven jumpers (or four for MT246A), which allow the unit to be configured for a wide range of applications. Designed around a mid-plane architecture, the MicroNTU G.703 Card incorporates both front and rear cards. Configuration of both may be necessary.

Possible strap positions for jumper LK6. The setting for jumper LK6 determines whether the MicroNTU G.703 Card will provide an internal clock, or will be receiving a clock from an external device.
CHAPTER 3: Configuration LK7: Data Inversion The setting for jumper LK7 determines whether data will be inverted or not inverted. Setting Strap Installed Data Inverted Strap Omitted Data Not Inverted (Default) 3.2 Rear-Card Configuration The MicroNTU G.703 Card has two rear interface card options: for the MT245A, 120-ohm (modular) network and EIA-530 (DB25) terminal, or, for the MT246A, 75-ohm (dual BNC) network and X.21 (DB15) terminal.

MICRONTU G.703 CARD (120 OR 75 OHM) 4. Installation This chapter describes the functions of the MicroRack 2, 4, 8, and 16 chassis, tells how to install front and rear MicroNTU G.703 Cards in the chassis, and provides diagrams for wiring the interface connections correctly. 4.1 The MicroRack and Power Supplies The MicroRack comes with two, four, eight, or sixteen card slots.
Page 16
CHAPTER 4: Installation The power supply (PS460A or PS461A) used in the MicroRack uses the same mid-plane architecture as the modem cards. The front card of the power supply slides in from the front, and the rear card slides in from the rear. They plug into one another in the middle of the rack.
MICRONTU G.703 CARD (120 OR 75 OHM) Switching the Power Supply Between 120 and 240 Volts Although the MicroRack is shipped from the factory with a customer-specified power-supply configuration, you may change the configuration yourself. Here are the steps to switch the configuration of the power supply between 120 and 240 VAC: 1) Remove the front power-supply card and locate the two-position switch near the back of the card.
CHAPTER 4: Installation 4.3 Connection to the G.703 Network The MicroNTU G.703 Card supports 2.048-Mbps communication over an unstructured G.703 network. Both 120- and 75-ohm interface cards are available (see Figure 4-2). MT245A MT246A RJ-45 (120-Ohm) Dual BNC (75-Ohm) DB25F DB15F Figure 4-2.

CHAPTER 4: Installation 4.4.2 X.21 T (MT246A) ERMINAL ONNECTION The 75-ohm rear card for the MicroNTU G.703 Card is equipped with a female DB15 connector, wired according to the CCITT X.21 standard (see the Appendix). To connect to an X.21 terminal (DTE), use a standard DB15 cable.
MICRONTU G.703 CARD (120 OR 75 OHM) 5. Operation Once you have configured each MicroNTU G.703 Card and connected the cables, you are ready to operate the units. 5.1 Power-Up There is no power switch on the MicroNTU G.703 Card: Power is automatically applied to the Card when its card-edge connector makes contact with the chassis’s mid-plane socket, or when the chassis’s power supply is turned on.

Verify that the data-terminal equipment is operating properly and can be used for a test. If a fault is indicated, call Black Box for technical support or replace the unit. c.) Perform a BER (bit error rate) test on each unit. If the BER test equipment indicates no faults, but the data terminal indicates a fault, follow the manufacturer’s checkout procedures for the data terminal.
