Follow these steps to install SFPs for the first time. To replace an SFP, see the CRU document.:

  1. Attach an Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) wrist strap (provided in the 
    Spacevars
    0model5
    kit) using the ESD grounding point on the rear panel of the chassis (see Connecting ESD Wrist Strap). 
  2. Insert the Sonus-approved SFP transceiver into the desired socket and ensure that the proper orientation when inserting, and that you will hear a "click-in " sound when the SFP is seated latched correctly.
  3. Connect/reconnect the fiber optic and/or CAT 5 cables, as appropriate, to media and HA ports.
  4. Verify LEDs above the part are flashing indicating that indicates link status and data activity.
  5. Verify port functionality using the CLI show status system commands, once the SBC application software is installed and the system is up and running (for details, see show status system from the 5.0.x documentation).
    1. Verify management and packet port functionality:

      Code Block
      languagenone
      > show status system ethernetPort 
    2. Verify HA port functionality:

      Code Block
      languagenone
      > show status system highAvailabilityPort 
Note

If an unsupported SFP module is inserted, an error message similar to the following displays:

PNPS: pkt1 SFP detected not supported by Sonus! Turning pkt1 off!
PNPS: Replace pkt1 SFP with an approved Sonus part to ensure NEBS. Replace the SFP modules to resolve issue.

Connecting Serial Port

When For connecting a serial cable to the rear serial port of the 

Spacevars
0model5
server for communication to communicate with a host PC, refer to the figure below for the serial port locationconnection image.

To establish the Management port connections, connect the CAT5e cable to the Mgmt 0Mgmt0, Mgmt 1Mgmt1Mgmt 2Mgmt2, and Mgmt 3Mgmt3 ports. The CAT5e cable may be connected to a switch, router, LAN or WAN as per the customer requirements.

...

The physical connection between two 

Spacevars
0model5
systems consists of a pair of GigE GIG-E cables (Use the Single mode or Multi mode fiber optic CAT5e cable (NON-CROSSOVER TYPE ONLY), directly connected between each HA ports.

The HA connections provides both box-Level and port-level redundancy system. The HA pair system consists of four management ports; two ports each per system. When a switchover occurs, the logical management address follows the currently active server. For the Media ports, the MAC and IP addresses float (are replicated from active to standby on failover switchover).

Note

The Alarm port is not supported by the 

Spacevars
0model5
application software in this release.

The 

Spacevars
0model5
Alarm ports , allow you to sense (Alarm In) and issue (Alarm Out) external signal. The Alarm Port utilizes a HD15 pin connector and supports 4 output alarms and 2 input alarms. You must create the remainder of the cable, wiring the appropriate sensor or alarm leads to the screw terminator on the connector.
