Communication Between Equipment Rooms
For an upgrade where some of the equipment resides at a remote location, the
upgrade activity is much easier if temporary communication is established
between the equipment rooms.
Usable Circuit Packs
Every circuit pack must conform to the minimum usable vintage requirements for
that system. At a presale site inspection, the remediation process checks the
vintages of existing circuit packs to be reused. Circuit packs with unusable
vintages must be replaced.
Refer to Technical Quarterly, Reference Guide for Circuit Pack Vintages, Change
Notices, and to the Software Release Letter, for information about usable circuit
pack vintages. For information about usable vintages of non-United States circuit
packs, refer to the ITAC's Tech Alert from your regional distributor.
Contact Network Technicians
Contact the technician for each public and private network accessed by the
system before the upgrade begins. Otherwise, it is possible that network-access
trunk facilities will be busied out at the far end.
Required Tools
The following tools and items may be required during the upgrade:
1/4-in. flat blade screwdriver
1/4-in. socket wrench with ratchet (optional)
Static-proof or original circuit pack packaging for transporting circuit packs
Labels for identifying the port circuit packs and cables attached to the rear
of cabinets
One dozen #8 self-tapping screws
Repair kit for backplane pins (KS-22876 L2 or equivalent)
Long-nose pliers to straighten backplane pins
