Connectors to Other Cages
Each cage includes connectors that allow cable connection between cages. The type
and quantity of cable depends on the cage number. For further information, see
page
6-53, System Configuration
Options.
I/O RJ-45 Connectors
Every peripheral card slot includes a single RJ-45 connector on the rear panel that is
used for digital cards (E1, T1, PRI, 2DT, UDT, PUGW, etc.). The RJ-45 connectors
provide the connections for the LAN and the digital trunks.
Digital Trunks
Place TBR, 2DT, UDT, PRI, T1, 30T, or 30T/x digital trunk interface cards in slot #4 (the
primary synchronization slot) or slot #5 (the secondary synchronization slot). These
slots have been pre-wired to function as the primary and secondary external clock
sources. For further details, see the Coral Service and Peripheral Cards Manual - Chapter 3.
LAN RJ-45 Connectors
The Coral IPx 800M cage includes two RJ-45 LAN connectors on the rear panel. The
left connector is used for LAN connection to LIU. The right connector is for future use.
Cage Ground Terminal
The ground terminal is used to connect the cage to the master ground unit.

Odd and Even Slots
Each universal I/O slot is referred to as an odd slot (1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11) or an even slot (2,
4, 6, 8, 10, 12).
I/O Champ Connectors
Half of the I/O Champ connectors are positioned on the cage rear panel on the top,
and are referred to as the upper connectors. The remaining half connectors are mounted
on the bottom, and are referred to as the lower connectors.
Each Champ connector includes a set of straps that allow the connectors to be secured
in place and prevent them from being inadvertently disconnected. Mating male plugs
should be industry standard (Amphenol
®
, AMP
, or equivalent). The connectors

provide metallic paths from the peripheral cards to station and trunk equipment
external to the system. The upper and lower champs are generally connected to the
