VOIP-MG-H7 Card
Description
The VOIP-MG-H7 card is a media gateway card which converts TDM services
into VoIP, in order to support an interface to Next Generation Networks. The card
terminates TDM calls, and converts voice and voiceband data into IP packets (and
vice versa). It also incorporates standard H.248 signaling protocols to handle the
calls. The VOIP-MG-H7 card includes VoIP Media Processing units, which
perform the media conversion, and a control unit, which handles the signaling
interface to the softswitch and performs the call control and management
mediation.
The IP-UL-x series card can be used together with the VOIP-MG-H7 card when a
single physical uplink is required for both VoIP & DSL data traffic, and/or if the
physical uplink type required for the VoIP is Gigabit Ethernet (electrical or
optical) which is not supported directly on the
VOIP-MG-H7 card.

Configuration
There are no user configurable strapping options on this card.
Note: The VOIP-MG-H7 card is configured for use through the management software
provided with your system. For further details, see the BroadAccess
Configuration Guide supplied in the Service Manual and in the ClearAccess+
User Guide.
Installation
Note: System may remain powered while inserting card.
Caution: Modules can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). Before handling any
modules connect your wrist to an equipment ground using an approved anti-static
wrist strap. Ensure that all uninstalled modules are stored in anti-static packing
material. When working with modules, always place the module on an electrically
grounded approved anti-static mat.

Caution: Using excessive force when seating cards and modules into the backplane may
result in severe physical damage to the backplane pins or module connectors, and
if power is applied, may result in serious electrical damage to both the modules or
the backplane.
1. Place the grounded ESD wristband on your wrist.
2. Carefully remove card from package.
3. Slide the card into the master CU slot marked “13”.
Caution: Seat the card into the backplane by sliding it through the card guide while holding
the ejector ears open. Fully seat the card by pressing the ejector ears in until they
lock into place. Do not force the cards into the backplane. If excessive resistance
is felt, remove the card and check for proper alignment in card guides or
obstructions.
4. Install the VoP-MG ADP (for electrical uplink) or IP-ADP-OP-S (for optical
uplink) card backplane adaptor (supplied with the VOIP-MG-H7 card) on the
cage backplane connector which corresponds to the card slot in which the card
is installed (backplane connector P13).
5. If not already connected, connect cables to the cage as explained in “Cables”,
below.
Caution: If installing a new system, do not set the power cards main switch to ON until
system installation is complete, as described in the installation guide for your
specific cage.
Note: Verify that a compatible card (see “Compatibility” in the Card Installation
Overview) is installed in a suitable slot of the cage at the other end of the link,
then use the management software provided with your system to perform line
provisioning accordingly while the BroadAccess is in manual connection mode.
For further details, see the BroadAccess Configuration Guide supplied in the
Service Manual and in the ClearAccess+ User Guide.
6. After the CU/single-side unit, and RUs (where used) are installed, powered up,
and links are connected, verify that indicator status is as described in “Card
Indicators” above. Otherwise, refer to “Alarms and Troubleshooting” in the
BroadAccess Maintenance Guide supplied in the Service Manual and in the
ClearAccess+ User Guide.
Cables
Caution: Use caution when routing wires and cables. Avoid severe bending and routing
over sharp edges. Use grommet material when possible to avoid wear to cable
insulation.

The uplink to the IP network is implemented using an optical Fast Ethernet uplink
cable, or using an electrical Ethernet 100/BaseT cable. The cable can be
connected either directly to the operator's IP network, or can be routed through the
system's IP-UL-x series card.
•For more information about connecting the Electrical Ethernet cable, see
Connecting the Electrical Ethernet Uplink Cable on page 5.
•For more information about connecting the optical uplink cable, see
Connecting the Optical Ethernet Uplink Cable on page 5.
Connecting the Electrical Ethernet Uplink Cable
1. Connect one end of the Ethernet Uplink cable supplied with the card to the
middle (marked P2) Ethernet Uplink connector on the VoP-MG-ADP card
backplane adaptor installed on the cage backplane.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to one of the following, depending on the
type of uplink used to the IP network:
directly to the operator’s IP network
to IP-UL-x series card backplane adaptor, P2 (middle) connector.
Connecting the Optical Ethernet Uplink Cable
1. Insert each connector on the IP-ADP-OP-S card backplane adaptor's middle
fiber optic connectors (marked P2) as follows:
a. Align the key on the male 100 FX SFP optical connector on the FO cable
with the slot on the female connector on the backplane adaptor.
b. Push it in until it clicks.
2. Connect the other end of the fiber optic cables to the operator’s IP network.
