NMS Connections
The NMS ports are used to connect the chassis into
the Verilink EM8100A element manager. Within
the chassis, each unit is physically connected to the
next unit in a daisy-chain fashion. Two 6-pin mod-
ular connectors are provided for both the A side
and the B side.
Each unit in the NMS chain must have a unique ad-
dress. All units in the chain must use the same
NMS bit rate.
Power Connections
The chassis is designed with two power buses con-
nected to TB1 (terminal block 1). The A bus feeds
the slots 1 through 12. The B bus feeds slots 13
through 24. Connect a Frame Ground lead (18- to
20-gauge wire) to pin 2 before applying power to
the unit. Connect the other end of this lead to an ap-
propriate frame ground.
NOTE: The maximum current draw of a
fully loaded chassis is 4 amperes. The
Verilink 1042 power shelf can supply a max-
imum of 4 amperes (refer to the configura-
tion guide for specifications). Ensure that
the proper fuse size is used.
