Dialogic PCI Linecard Installation and Replacement

Before You Begin

Review this section before performing any of the procedures in this document. This
section provides important information about electrostatic discharge and the tools and
equipment required to complete the installation.
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning
Computer components are extremely sensitive to electro-static discharge (ESD). You
must wear an anti-static wrist strap and install the linecard at an ESD-safe workstation.
Do not open the static-protective bag until necessary. Before removing the linecard from
the static-protective bag, touch the bag to a grounded, unpainted metal surface for at least
two seconds (this drains the static electricity from the bag and from your body). Turn off
and unplug your computer before removing the case.
Gathering Tools and Equipment
Before you begin disassembling the OneBox platform, verify that you have the following
required tools and equipment:
• OneBox Telephony Server program CD-ROM
• Dialogic System Software program SR5.01 CD-ROM (if applicable)
• One or more Dialogic PCI linecards (D/41EPCI, D/120JCT-LS, or D/240PCI-T1)
• CTbus cable to connect multiple PCI cards
• New feature key diskette (if the total number of ports available after the addition of
new linecards exceeds the number of ports for which you are currently licensed)
• #2 Phillips screwdriver
• Linecord adapters, if necessary
• If you are installing a D/240PCI-T1 linecard, the following additional hardware:
− Channel Service Unit (CSU), may be integrated into the telephone system (switch)
− T-1 line–to–CSU cable
− CSU–to–D/240PCI-T1 cable
Refer to the "Cabling Dialogic D/240PCI-T1 Linecards to the Telephone System" section
for additional information.
