Avenue 9430 Flexible Matrix Router Installation, Configuration and Operations Guide
Configuring the Router's Ports
Planning Router Port Configuration
Typically, during the planning stage of your Router implementation, you would determine in advance
how you want to initially use the router in terms of inputs, outputs, test signals and clean switches.
Cabling Router to Match Plan
Based on your plan, connect cables to the ports to match your intended use. After you have
completed cabling the router, you will then configure the ports to match how you have wired the
router for your facility.
Before going step-by-step through the process of configuring the Router’s ports, it is necessary to go
over some background information in order to understand what the configuration options mean.
Components Chosen Determines Quantity and Types of Ports Available
The number and types of ports available in the Router is determined by the components chosen.
Without taking the 9435 Clean Switch option into account yet, there are three underlying hardware
module configuration options, creating a total of 33 possible Router sizes:
One 9430 Module
One 9430 module has 8 fixed
inputs and 2 fixed outputs for a
total of 10 ports.
One 9430 Module and
One 9440 Module
One 9430 module plus one
9440 module has 8 fixed inputs,
2 fixed outputs, and 10 bi-
directional ports for a total of
20 ports.
One 9430 Module and
Two 9440 Modules
One 9430 module plus two
9440 modules has 8 fixed
inputs, 2 fixed outputs, and
20 bi-directional ports for a total
of 30 ports.
