1. Introduction
UC Digital Gateway is a system that allows Nortel digital telephone sets originally designed for the Norstar and BCM hardware platforms to be
x
used with E-MetroTel’s UC Servers.
x
The main function of the UC Digital Gateway is to handle all necessary protocol translation tasks to allow Nortel digital phones to be used with a
x
UC Server.
x
The UC Digital Gateway product is distributed in two ways:
x
Solid State Drive (SSD) with UC software that must be installed in a customer's BCM50 system
x
BCM50 with the Solid State Drive (SSD) with UC software installed and a UC product license enabled
x x
This quick start guide describes steps to install the UC Digital Gateway solid state drive (SSD) in a BCM50 system and to configure the hardware
x
and software for communication with your UC Server.
x
2. Installation of the Solid State Drive in a BCM system
If you purchased the UC Digital Gateway as a complete system (a BCM50 system with UC software and a UC product license), you should
x x x
proceed to the section .Configuration of UCx Digital Gateway
The UC x Digital Gateway’s software is distributed on a Solid State Drive (SSD) that must be installed in the main unit of the BCM50 telephone
system.
2.1. Opening the BCM Main Unit
Before you perform this procedure, attach a grounding strap connected to a grounded metal surface to your wrist.
Disconnect all cables (including the power cable) from the BCM unit.
Turn the BCM50 case over to gain access to screws at the bottom of the unit.
Locate three screw holes marked with A and remove the screws.
Turn the case back over to its upright position. Collect and save the three screws.
While facing the BCM front side (the one with connectors), hold the bottom of the case and press on the top of the case with your
thumbs. The top of the case will slide to the back by about ¼” as shown in the picture below. After that, lift the top of the case from the
BCM unit.

2.2. Removing the Hard Drive
If your BCM uses , remove two screws that attach the bracket to the bottom of the case.the newer hard disk bracket
Remove fan wires from the clip(s) on the back of the hard disk bracket.
Disengage the power connector latch gently with a flat screwdriver and disconnect the hard disk power cable from the main board.
Press the latch on the red SATA data cable and disconnect the cable from the main board.
Lift the hard disk bracket from the case and place it on a static-free surface.
Remove four screws that secure the hard drive to the bracket and remove the hard drive from the bracket.
Remove the power cable and the SATA data cable (or the combined SATA power and data cable) from the hard disk connectors.
2.3. Inserting the Solid State Drive
If you have the older style BCM hard disk bracket (one where the hard drive was mounted from the bottom of the bracket), you must use
the SSD 2.5” to 3.5” conversion bracket that is included with the SSD.

If you have the newer style BCM hard disk bracket (one where the hard drive was mounted from the top of the bracket), skip the next
step (i.e., do not use the conversion bracket).
Secure the SSD to the 2.5” to 3.5” conversion bracket with four screws that were included with the SSD. Please do not use different
screws that do not match – doing so could damage the SSD!
If you have the combined SATA power and data cable, use the proper orientation and connect the cable to the SSD.
If you have two separate cables, first make sure the notch on the power cable is properly aligned with the notch on the corresponding
SSD connector and connect the power cable to the SSD. Then make sure the notch on the SATA data cable is properly aligned with the
notch on the corresponding SSD connector and connect the data cable to the SSD.
If you have , place the SSD with the conversion bracket into the hard disk bracket and secure it onthe older style BCM hard disk bracket
the sides with four screws that you removed during the hard drive removal.
If you have , place the SSD into the bracket and secure it from the bottom with four screws thatthe newer style BCM hard disk bracket
were included with the SSD. Please do not use different screws that do not match – doing so could damage the SSD!
Insert the hard disk bracket with the SSD back into the BCM case (make sure that fan wires are properly routed through the cutout in the
bracket).
Note: Some BCM systems were shipped with two fans, but typically there is only one fan installed. If you have a single fan, it should be
installed in the far left corner when facing the BCM front side with connectors (or in the bottom right corner if you turn the system around
as shown in the picture above).
Reconnect the red SATA data cable and the power cable to the main board.
Place fan wires back into the clip(s) on the hard disk bracket while making sure there is no slack.
If you have the newer style BCM hard disk bracket, fasten it to the BCM case with two screws that were used to attach the bracket.
2.4. Closing the BCM Main Unit
While facing the BCM front side (the one with connectors), place the top of the BCM case onto the unit with side edges aligned and with
the front side positioned back by about ¼”.
Slide the top of the case to the front until it snaps into place.

Turn the BCM50 case over to gain access to screw holes at the bottom of the unit.
Insert the three screws you removed from the case into screw holes marked with A and tighten the screws.
Turn the case back over to its upright position.
3. Configuration of UC Digital Gateway
x
After the installation of the Solid State Drive, several configuration steps are required to prepare the device for operation. Even though it is not
necessary to perform all the steps listed below or to perform them in the order in which they are listed, we strongly recommend you to follow the
entire procedure.
If your BCM50 system has an integrated router, you should configure the router before you proceed with the configuration of the UC Digital
x
Gateway. See the section in the document forConfiguring Integrated Router UC Digital Gateway - Installation, Configuration and Maintenance
x
information about this procedure.
3.1. Accessing the UC Digital Gateway Web-based Configuration Utility
x
UC Digital Gateway software images use by default the static IP address 192.168.0.175, the netmask 255.255.255.0 and the gateway
x
192.168.0.1. To access the BCM system using this IP address, connect it to your network using the second Ethernet connector from the left.
Alternatively, you can connect your PC to the BCM system using the OA&M port (the left most Ethernet connector). When the system is fully
operational (indicated by two solid green LEDs), the DHCP server running on the OA&M port's subnet will assign your PC the IP address
10.10.11.2. The IP address of the BCM system when using the OA&M port is 10.10.11.1.
The UC Digital Gateway Web-based Configuration Utility is accessible at the address (when connected using the regular
xhttp://192.168.0.175
Ethernet port) or (when connected using the OA&M port).http://10.10.11.1
To access the UC Digital Gateway Web-based Configuration Utility, perform the following steps:
x
If you use the subnet 192.168.0.x and no device on your network uses the IP address 192.168.0.175, you can connect the BCM system
directly to your local network.
If you don't use the subnet 192.168.0.x or there is already is a device on your network with the IP address 192.168.0.175, configure a PC
to use DHCP for its network connection and connect this PC to the OA&M port on the BCM unit (the left Ethernet connector).
In your Internet browser, enter the address of the BCM system (either 192.168.0.175 or 10.10.11.1).
If you get a prompt that the website you're trying to access has a problem with its security certificate, select the option to proceed to the
website. You may want to install the BCM security certificates on your PC or add the BCM system to your browser's permanent
exceptions list if you don't want to encounter this warning again (please refer to the browser documentation for more information).
The login page is displayed. Login using the default credentials:
Username = admin
Password = (please note that the ‘0’ is a numeric zero)emetr0tel
If you already changed the administrator's password, use your password instead of the default.
