1 The Quad Basic Rate Module
1.1 Introduction
The Cyber Backup Quad Basic Rate Module (CBUQBR) is a single width
card for use in either the CBU/14 or the CBU/6 Shelf, otherwise known
as a ‘Shelf System’.
The CBUQBR connects to 4 basic rate ISDN lines providing up to 8 ‘B’
channels for interfacing with other application cards in the Fivemere-
Cabletron Shelf System. A Shelf System supports a single CBUQBR or
a single CBUPRI but not both simultaneously. (Please see section 5 for
the Glossary of Terms used in this manual).
Management is provided via the Cyber Backup Generic Shelf Manager
(CBUGSM) which forms a standard part of the Shelf System.
Local or remote access to the cards in the shelf is by password which is
entered on the first poll of the shelf. Alarm messages from the cards in
the shelf are routed to the alarm and/or command ports on the
CBUGSM.
For cards other than the CBUQBR used in the Shelf System, please see
the relevant manual.
1.2 General Description
The CBUQBR comprises a front card and a rear interface card.

The CBUQBR provides up to 8 x 64kbit/s ‘B’ channels, each channel can
be switched to any time-slot on any of the four 2.048 Mbit/s backplane
buses.
The CBUQBR will provide on demand individual 64 kbit/s channels for
use by other application cards in the shelf. The other application cards
are completely responsible for the provision of telephone numbers,
CLIDs, dial commands, timers, and call retry attempts.
Software download to the module is supported via the CBUGSM.
1.3 Shelf Power Loading
The CBUQBR requires the following current on the power rails:
+5V +12V -12V
300mA 5mA 5mA
When installing cards into either type of shelf, the installation engineer
must ensure that the shelf power supplies’ combined output can meet
both the overall power requirements and the individual rail current
requirements of all the cards in the shelf. (Please refer to the relevant
manuals for this information on the cards). This is true whether allowing
for redundancy or not.
Warning:
The Shelf should be professionally installed by a competent
engineer. There are no operator serviceable parts inside the
unit and it should only be opened by a qualified service
engineer. The mains supply should be disconnected before
accessing the interior.

1.4 Switches and Jumpers
All switches and jumpers must only be changed by a competent
engineer.
1.4.1 8 Way DIL Switch S2 - poles 1-4
Pole 1 OFF (F) Reserved
Pole 2 OFF (F) ‘S’ bus power detection enabled
ON ‘S’ bus power detection disabled
Pole 3 OFF (F) Normal Operation
ON Factory Default.
(It must subsequently be turned OFF
again after powering up to perform a
factory default, to return the CBUQBR
back to normal operation)
Pole 4 OFF System Slave Function
ON (F) System Master Function.
This enables the call control and routing
functions, resident on the CBUQBR.
Poles 5-8 Variant selection, see section 1.4.2.

1.4.2 Product Variant - S2 Poles 5-8
Different operational modes or product “variants” can be selected via the
8 way DIL switch on the pcb, allowing several different countries and
variants to use the same software.
DIL switch S1 poles 5, 6, 7 and 8 define the variant in binary notation.
Pole 5 = L.S.B., pole 8 = M.S.B., (L.S.B.=Least Significant Bit,
M.S.B.=Most Significant Bit).
Variant Country DIL Switch Settings
Variant 0(F) Euro ISDN. UK and most
European countries: poles 5,6,7,8 all OFF.
Variant 2 Euro ISDN*. France and
Sweden: pole 6 ON, poles 5,7,8 OFF.
Variant 3 USA AT&T: poles 5,6 ON,
poles 7,8 OFF.
‘F’ is the factory setting, and must not be changed otherwise malfunction
may occur. All poles are ‘read’ by the software on power up.
*NOTE: Variant 2 does not have single octet information elements
present in the call setup message.
Most other countries with Euro-ISDN are likely to require Variant 0.
Please contact your Technical Support for further information.
NOTE: Variants 1-14 must not be set in the UK, otherwise the
Approval of this product will be invalidated. Access to the
interior to change these settings must only be made by a
competent engineer.
