BSX8000-5 Overview
The BSX8000-5 Broadband Services Switch provides multi-gigabit Ethernet uplink
support capability, full-nonblocking switching throughput, and enhanced
management functionality for the 4000E and 12000E Broadband Loop Carriers
(BLCs).
The BSX8000-5 supports four fixed 10/100/1000 RJ45 Ethernet interfaces and
one MIM (Micro Interface Module) slot. Multiple MIM varieties are supported.
The BSX8000-5 delivers a full 1 Gbps full duplex
backplane connection to each access module in the
BLC. This ensures that the aggregate access bandwidth
cannot exceed the backplane speed of the chassis.
When two BSX8000 modules are used in the 12000E,
the backplane speed is doubled, providing a 2 Gbps
connection to each access module.
The BSX8000-5 supports the following access modules:
AAM8000-24
AIM24000-48
EIM2000-12
EIM2000-24

Installing the BSX8000-5 in a BLC
The 12000E is a 14-slot Broadband Loop Carrier (BLC). Slots 1–12 are reserved
for access modules (such as the AIM24000-48) and slots U1 and U2 are reserved
for uplink modules. Although not required for operational purposes, if redundancy
is desired, two BSX8000-5 modules may be installed in the 12000E, in slots U1
and U2. (Note: For redundancy, the two uplink modules in the chassis must be
identical models.)
The 4000E is a five-slot BLC. Slots 1–4 are reserved for access modules and slot
U1 is reserved for a single uplink module.
Procedure
1. Align the BSX8000-5 uplink module with the slot module guides of the chosen
slot for installation (either slot U1 or U2 on the 12000E or slot U1 on the
4000E).
2. Slide the BSX8000-5 uplink module into the chassis. Do not use excessive
force.
3. Tighten the fastening screws on the BSX8000-5 uplink module faceplate.
4. Verify that the PWR (Power) LED on the BSX8000-5 faceplate is illuminated.
Connect the MIM to the Network
Connect to the core network by using one of the fixed GigE interfaces or by using
an interface from the added MIM. See 10/100/1000BaseT Connectors on page 14.
MIM-10/100
Plug your Ethernet cable into the RJ45 Ethernet port on the MIM-10/100 faceplate.
The MIM-10/100 connects to a router or a PC with a straight-through cable and to
a hub or a switch with a crossover cable.
Verify the connection: solid illumination of the Lnk (link) LED on the MIM-10/100
faceplate indicates an Ethernet uplink connection has been established. The
MIM-10/100 Ethernet port is 10/100 auto-negotiating.
NOTE: Configure the remote device with which you are connecting to
auto-negotiate (if applicable) prior to establishing your Ethernet connection.
MIM100F
Plug your Ethernet Fiber Optic Cable into the port on the MIM100F faceplate.
MIM-2000F
The MIM-2000F is a two-port fiber gigabit Ethernet interface, which connects to
the Fast Ethernet Bus of the BLC. This will function but is not recommended for
use with the BSX8000-5 Uplink Interface.

6June 2005 BSX8-A2-GZ40-20
MIM-4000F
The MIM-4000F is a four-port fiber gigabit Ethernet interface connecting directly to
the gigabit Ethernet switch in the BSX8000-5 uplink module.
MIM-2E1 or MIM-4E1
Plug your E1 cable into one of the RJ45 E1 ports on the MIM faceplate. The
MIM-2E1 or MIM-4E1 connects to an E1 network extender provider unit, or an
interface module in another BLC, via a standard E1 line.
Verify the connection: the Lnk (link) LED on the MIM faceplate flashes green to
indicate a network connection has been established.
MIM-2T1 or MIM-4T1
Plug your T1 cable into one of the RJ45 T1 ports on the MIM faceplate. The
MIM-2T1 or MIM-4T1 connects to a T1 network extender provider unit, or an
interface module in another BLC, via a standard T1 line.
Verify the connection: the Lnk (link) LED on the MIM faceplate flashes green to
indicate a network connection has been established.
