With the CS 1000E, a system terminal can also connect directly to the Call
Server, Signaling Server, Media Cards, and Media Gateway 1000Es
(MG 1000Es).
When a system terminal is installed directly on the Call Server, it connects to
the Com 1 port.
When a system terminal is installed on the Signaling Server, the rear serial
port is the primary port for maintenance and administration.
When a system terminal connects to an MG 1000E, it connects to the Small
System Controller (SSC) through an SDI port on the rear of the MG 1000E.
The Voice Gateway Media Card faceplate provides a female 8-pin mini-DIN
serial maintenance port for system terminal connection. The maintenance
port on the Shielded 50-pin to Serial/ELAN/TLAN Adapter provides an
alternative to the faceplate maintenance port. For details, see the Voice
Gateway Media Card installation in Communication Server 1000E:
Installation and Configuration (553-3041-210).
