Installation
Series 44 and 48. The LANIC can be installed in any slot in the range of 14 through 24 (card
cage 1) and any slot in the range of 1 through 7 (card cage 2). The adding of the LANIC card
may require the movement of cards in the card cage(s) to give the LANIC the required relative
priority.
Series 64 and 68. The LANIC must be installed in the I/O portion of the card cage. The adding
of the LANIC card may require the movement of cards in the card cage to give the LANIC the
required relative priority.
Special considerations apply to the placement of GICs, SIBs, and LANICs in Series 64 and 68
systems:
Between a GIC, SIB, or LANIC, and the next GIC, SIB, or LANIC, there may be a maximum of
nine slots.
The "next" card need not be identical to its neighbor as long as it is one of the three types (GIC,
SIB, or LANIC)
As an example, an SIB in slot 10 with a LANIC in slot 21, and GICs in slots 22 and 23, is not legal
because there are greater than nine slots between the SIB and the LANIC. (The device cards such
as INPs, AIBs, etc., do not matter in this case.)
An SIB in slot 10, LANIC in slot 17, and GIC in slot 22 is legal because there are nine or fewer
slots between each card.
Finally, this limitation does not span IMBs. Each 1MB must conform only individually.
7. Record the location of the LANIC in the configuration section of the System Support Log.
8. Connect the hood connector of the appropriate LANIC cable (part number 30241-60002 for Series
39, 40, and 42; part number 30241-60003 for Series 44, 48, 64, and 68) to connector J2 of the
LANIC card. Connect the other end of the LANIC cable as follows:
Series 39, 40, 42. Fasten the LANIC cable connecting box to the grounding strip at the bottom of
the SPU (system processor unit) frame with the captive thumbscrew attached. Be sure the raised
mounting lug is inserted in a hole in the groupding strip. Tighten the thumbscrew securely.
Connect the ThinMAlJ AUI cable to the LANIC cable connector. See figure 2-4.
Series 44 and 48. Fas,ten tile LANIC cable connector, with its mounting panel attached, to the
junction panel on the side of the card cage. Use only cutout numbers 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, or 8 for the
LANIC cable. Connect the ThjnMAU AUI cable to the LANIC cable connector. See figure 2-5
for details.
Series 64 and 68. Fasten the LANIC cable connector, with its mounting panel attached, to the
junction panel on the side of the card cage. Connect the ThinMAU AUI cable to the LANIC cable
connector. See figure 2-6 for details. Note that the junction panel on Series 64 and 68 systems
consists of two sets of 24 slots with a cable trough above and below each set. In each set of 24
slots, there are 12 upper and 12 lower slots. The LANIC internal cable should be installed in one
of the lowest 12 slots with the ThinMAU AUI cable routed through the lower cable trough.
