Installing Your Management Module
A management module provides the functional control for the 4000E BLC; the
4000E cannot function without one. There are several different models available
for purchase. Refer to www.paradyne.com for further information, or contact your
sales representative.
Installing a Management Module
An uplink module provides the upstream network connection for the 4000E BLC; a
management module cannot function without one. Depending on the management
module model that you plan to install in your 4000E, you will need either a Media
Interface Module (MIM) or an Uplink Interface Module (UIM). Only one uplink
module is required for operational purposes. However, two uplink modules may be
installed, one in each port of the management module, if redundancy is desired.
Refer to your management module or uplink module installation instructions for
further information.
CAUTION
If a blank plate is removed from a management module uplink port, it must be
replaced with an uplink module. DO NOT OPERATE A 4000E WITH A
MANAGEMENT MODULE THAT HAS AN OPEN UPLINK PORT.
Procedure
1. Identify the appropriate slot for installation.
The 4000E is a five slot chassis: slots 1–4 are reserved for interface modules
and Slot U1 is reserved for a management module. The 4000E is shipped
from the factory with slots 1 and U1 open and ready for module installation.
2. Align the management module with the slot module guides. With the
management module printed circuit board (PCB) facing up and the
management module model name on the right side of the module faceplate
(facing towards you), align the left and right edges of the PCB with the U1 slot
module guides on the 4000E.
