A Management Communications Controller (MCC) card is a processor circuit
card assembly (CCA) that administers and provides diagnostic connectivity to all
of the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) cards in a HotWire 8600 or 8800 DSL Access
Multiplexer (DSLAM) chassis. It acts as a mid-level manager and works in
conjunction with a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) network
management system, such as Paradyne's DCE Manager for HP OpenView, via
its Local Area Network (LAN) port. It gathers operational status for each of the
DSL cards and HotWire Remote Termination Units (RTUs) and responds to the
SNMP requests (via PROXY ARP). It also supports a serial port for local or
remote terminal access.

  • Page 2: Tools Required

    Tools Required Small- to medium-size flat-blade screwdriver to install the MCC card. Technical Specifications Specifications Size Weight Approvals Safety Certifications Power Physical Environment Operating temperature Storage temperature Relative humidity Shock and vibration * Criteria of technical specifications are subject to change without notice.
  • Page 3 After the MCC card is installed, there are configuration instructions that must be performed before you can begin to use the MCC card for network management. Refer to the HotWire Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) User’s Guide, Document No. 8000-A2-GB20, for more information.
  • Page 4: Installing The Mcc Card

    HotWire 8600 DSLAM chassis HotWire 8800 DSLAM chassis NOTE: You will need to remove the filler plate before proceeding to install the MCC card. Do not discard filler plates. Each slot in the chassis must contain a circuit card or a filler plate to maintain the required EMI shielding and to prevent air leakage from the forced air cooling.
  • Page 5 Slot 19. 3. Slide the MCC card into the slot. Gently, but firmly, push the card until it properly seats in its mating connectors on the backplane.
  • Page 6 Then, simply push the ejector handles outward and slide the card out. When swapping the old MCC card with a new MCC card, it is important to note that the HotWire DSLAM retains the Media Access Control (MAC) address, also referred to as the physical address.
  • Page 7 Connecting to a Terminal or Computer for Local Network Management Procedure To connect the HotWire DSLAM chassis that contains the MCC card to a terminal or computer: 1. Plug the 8-pin modular end of the CAT5 cable and DB25 adapter (provided with this product) into the MANAGEMENT SERIAL port of the HotWire DSLAM chassis.
