Install Peripheral Interface Cards

To install the Peripheral Interface cards:
CAUTION: To prevent static damage to electrical components,
ensure that the system is grounded before you install the
cards. Whenever you handle circuit cards, wear an anti-static
strap.
1. Install the peripheral switch controller card in slot 16.
2. Set the E&M Trunk Card settings and the OPS Line Card
Message Waiting Switches in the Peripheral Unit Specifications
section.
3. Install the Peripheral Interface cards. Refer to Install a Circuit
Card in "Install Upgrades and FRUs" for circuit card installation
procedures.

Cable the Unit to the MDF

Cable the lines and trunks from the Peripheral Unit to the Main
Distribution Frame (MDF) by using the Peripheral Interface Cabling
Tables.
About Peripheral Interface Cabling
Peripheral equipment (e.g., stations, SUPERSET telephones,
trunks) is connected to the relevant interface circuits of the system
via a cross-connect field. Peripheral Interface cards, situated in
slots 1 through 12, are connected to the cross-connect field by a
maximum of eight 25-pair cables (customer-supplied) per
Peripheral Unit. Cables terminate at the node on 50-pin plugs, J1
through J8, with the number of cables being dependent on the
quantity and type of interface cards installed in the node.
Plugs J1 through J8 are hardwired to backplane connectors in slots
1 through 12 to form four slot groups, each comprising three
adjacent cards and each associated with a pair of plugs. Two
adjacent slot groups are shown in Backplane Connector
Arrangements. The circuits of interface cards contained in a slot
group are evenly distributed to the relevant pair of plugs, such that,
half the circuits of each card in a group are connected to the odd-
