Scenario 2: Adding a fourth expansion cabinet
The existing main cabinet is equipped with two 10 m (33 ft) dual-port
expansion daughterboards connecting to three expansion cabinets. A
remote expansion cabinet is to be added requiring a 3 km (1.8 mi) expansion
daughterboard. Although one of the existing daughterboards has a port
available, it can only be connected to a cabinet within 10 m (33 ft). With this
scenario, do the following:
Step Action
1 Select the dual-port expansion daughterboard that is being used for
only one cabinet (a spare port is available on the daughterboard).
2 Replace it with a 3 km (1.8 mi) dual-port expansion daughterboard.
3 Replace the receiver card in the existing companion expansion
cabinet with a 3 km (1.8 mi) receiver card.
4 With glass optic cable, connect the existing expansion cabinet to the
same port as previously assigned on the expansion daughterboard.
5 Add the cabinet to the remaining port as described in Procedure 3
"Adding expansion cabinets to an existing system" (page 81) .
