2.5.3 Connecting a Drop/Insert Interface
The Drop/Insert Interface is used to connect various CSMIM-T1 channels
to a local PBX or other equipment. The Drop/Insert Interface port is
located on the front panel of the CSMIM-T1.
To connect your local equipment to the CSMIM-T1, simply plug the
RJ48C connector located on the Drop/Insert Interface Cable into the
Drop/Insert Interface port located on the front panel of the CSMIM-T1.
When the connector clicks into place, the connection is secure. Appendix
A describes the Drop/Insert Interface port’s signal/pin allocation.
2.6 POWER-UP AND TEST
1. Apply power (or insert into MMAC). The CSMIM-T1 now runs its
ROM-resident power-up diagnostics. The indicators momentarily
light and then turn off, except for the ON LINE LED and some status
LEDs.
If the diagnostics complete successfully, the CSMIM-T1 either enters
SET UP Mode and waits for configuration data to be entered, or boots
its operational image from Flash.
You can enter configuration information through a terminal
connected to the console port. The ROM monitor prompt (
monitor:: )
appears on the terminal.
If the ATTN and the STAT LEDs are flashing together, there is a
CSMIM-T1 hardware failure. Contact Technical Support.
If the ATTN LED is flashing, there is a network or network interface
failure. An error message will display on the console.
If a network or network interface failure occurs, typing q accesses the
ROM Monitor prompt. Check the network connection, and then see
the net command in Chapter 3.
See Chapter 5 for additional troubleshooting information.
2. Verify the CSMIM-T1 hardware configuration.

CAUTION
The CSMIM-T1 can incur damage if the cables conduct
transients such as those induced by lightning strikes, etc.
