Hotwire TDM SDSL Termination Units
Hotwirer8775 and 8785 TDM SDSL Termination Units are circuit card assemblies
comprising four Time Division Multiplexer Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line
(TDM SDSL) ports and four synchronous ports. When the Hotwire 87xx TDM SDSL
Termination Unit is used in a Hotwire 8600 or 8800 Series Digital Subscriber Line
Access Multiplexer (DSLAM), it transports up to 2048 kbps signals over traditional
twisted-pair telephone wiring.
Installation Overview
Installation and configuration of the Hotwire 87xx TDM SDSL Termination Unit
consists of:
HInstalling the unit in the DSLAM.
HConnecting to the Data Terminal Equipment (DTE).
HConnecting to a Main Distribution Frame (MDF).
HProviding initial unit identity information or changing existing identity information.
HConfiguring the unit using the Configuration Edit menus.
Before you install the unit, read the Important Safety Instructions in the appropriate
DSLAM manual.
Planning the Installation
Review the following list to help plan for the installation.
-Obtain the applicable cables; refer to Cables You Need.
-Make sure the Hotwire DSLAM is installed and power is supplied to the chassis.
-After the unit is installed, there are configuration procedures that must be
performed before you can begin to use it. Refer to the User’s Guide if you require
detailed configuration procedures.

Installing TDM SDSL Cards
A Hotwire TDM SDSL Termination Unit can be installed, removed, and replaced without
disrupting service to other cards in the chassis.
!HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR STATIC-SENSITIVEDEVICES
This product is designed to protect sensitive components from
damage due to electrostatic discharge (ESD) during normal
operation. When performing installation procedures,
however, take proper static control precautions to
prevent damage to equipment. If you are not sure
of the proper static control precautions, contact
your nearest sales or service representative.
"Procedure
To install the unit:
1. Determine in which slot the unit will be installed. Verify that cards in adjacent slots
have been fastened using the screws at each end of their front panels.
2. Remove the filler plate from the installation slot.
3. Insert the unit into the DSLAM:
—For a Hotwire 8600 Series DSLAM – Hold the unit horizontally, with the
component side facing up, and insert it into the left and right card guides.

4. Slide the unit into the slot until the power and network connectors seat firmly in the
mating connectors on the backplane.
CAUTION:
Do not force the unit into the slot. This could damage the backplane
connectors. If the card does not seat properly, remove the card and reinstall
it. If it still does not seat properly, call your service representative.
The unit performs a power-on self-test. All of the LEDs turn ON and OFF briefly.
When the self-test is completed successfully, the SYSTEM OK LED begins to
pulse.
5. If the LED is not pulsing, refer to Messages and Troubleshooting in the User’s
Guide.
6. Secure the unit by fastening the screws at each end of the faceplate.

Connecting to the DTE
Connection to the four ports of the unit is through the 100-pin connector on its
faceplate. Use one of the DTE cables listed under Cables You Need on page 3.
"Procedure
To connect the Hotwire 87xx TDM SDSL Termination Unit to your DTE:
1. Connect the 100-position connector of the cable to the connector on the faceplate
of the unit. Align one end of the cable connector with the card connector, then push
on the cable connector until it seats.
The end of the cable connector has two release buttons. To remove the connector,
press the release buttons simultaneously and pull the connector away from the
card.
2. Feed the cable through the Cable Guide if it is installed. When all cables are
installed, anchor them with cable ties to the rack, DSLAM, or Cable Guide.
3. Connect the four terminating connectors to your DTE.
Connecting to an MDF
You can connect the Hotwire DSLAM containing the Hotwire 87xx TDM SDSL
Termination Unit to an MDF or other demarcation point. Do not connect it to a POTS
splitter.
"Procedure
To connect the Hotwire DSLAM containing the unit to an MDF:
1. Plug the 50-position Telco cable into the appropriate connector on the DSLAM
using the following table.

2. If necessary to attach the cable connector firmly in place, replace the longer Telco
cable captive screw with a shorter one. Fasten the connector.
3. Insert a cable tie (provided with Hotwire DSLAM) through the tie mount to hold the
50-position Telco connector in place.
4. Make sure the other end is connected to the appropriate MDF or demarcation
point.
NOTE:
If connecting the Telco 25-pair, 50-position cable to an MDF, a converter may be
necessary for terminating the other end of the cable on a punchdown block before
cross-connecting to an MDF.
Ferrite Choke (Installation in Hotwire 8820 GranDSLAM Only)
CAUTION:
All ferrite chokes that are supplied must be installed following these
instructions to ensure compliance with FCC Part 15, VCCI, and CISPR22
rules.
"Procedure
A ferrite choke is included with all Hotwire 8775 and 8785 TDM SDSL Termination
Units. The ferrite choke is only required if you install the termination unit in a Hotwire
8820 GranDSLAM; otherwise, it can be discarded.
To install the ferrite choke onto the 50-pin DSL cable:
1. Open the ferrite choke and place it around the cable as close to the Hotwire 8820
GranDSLAM as possible.
2. Close the two halves around the cable and snap the choke shut, pressing down on
the plastic latch to secure it.
3. Add a tie wrap if necessary to prevent the ferrite choke from slipping down the
cable.
