SX-200 General Information Guide
48 Revision A 50003510
Another configuration for the SX-200 ML exists when the cabinets do not have a BCC III. The
FIM II or CIM on the Peripheral Interface Module Carrier Card (PIMCC) provides the connectivity
to the main control cabinet.
Connecting a Peripheral Bay
The SX-200 ML system supports only one peripheral bay.
For fiber connectivity, the main control cabinet and the peripheral cabinet must have a fiber
interface module (FIM or FIM II). A FIM can connect to a FIM, a FIM II can connect to a FIM II,
or a FIM can connect to a FIM II and vice versa. The only restriction is that both fiber interface
modules must be of the same variant (1, 5 or 14 km), that is, a 1 km FIM must connect to a 1
km FIM II.
• The SX-200 ML main control cabinet can have in slot 10, a Control Dual FIM Carrier card
with the 1 km FIM (on-board), or a Control Triple CIM card with a FIM II that connects to
a second peripheral bay (Bay 2). If the peripheral cabinet has a BCC III, the BCC III
supports a FIM II. If the peripheral cabinet has a BCC II, the peripheral cabinet can have
a Peripheral Interface Module Carrier card with a FIM II or a Peripheral FIM Carrier II card
with a FIM.
Note: The system counts a PRI card sitting in a main control cabinet as a peripheral bay.
The PRI card does not require a CIM or FIM II to connect to the main controller.
