Installing Active Cards
than 64 outputs are desired, begin by installing input cards and output cards on the left side of the
router frame, when facing the front of the router, beginning with the first slots. (See Figure 2-3 on
page 11.) For more information on switching configurations, see
Switching Configurations on page
8.
The following lists examples of different configurations using standard SWB cards:
Rules for Classic SWB Card Sets
Classic SWB card sets (EM0395) occupy two slots each. One card set serves as a SWB video
16×16 output crosspoint array. Two classic SWB card sets can be combined to create a 32×32 out-
put crosspoint array. For more information on card functions, see
Classic SWB on page 28. For
more information on switching configurations, see Switching Configurations on page 8.
Each Classic SWB card set requires two backplanes: One is a 16-input active backplane; it includes
automatic cable equalization circuits for the 16 inputs. The other is an output backplane with active
line drivers for the 16 outputs. For more information, see
Backplanes on page 13.
Classic SWB card set must be installed in specific slots, as follows:
See Figure 2-3 on page 11.
Rules for Machine Control Card Sets
A single machine control card set (EM0482) can be installed in any two adjacent slots to create a
32-port array. However, Miranda recommends that the first 32-port card set and backplane set be
installed in slot 11 and slot 12. If two Machine Control card sets are being combined, to create a 64-
port configuration, the card sets must be installed in slots 11 and 12 and in slots 13 and 14, respec-
tively. (See Figure 2-3 on page 11.) It is not possible to install two independent 32-port module sets
in separate 32-port partitions. For more information on card functions, see
Machine Control Signals
on page 31. For more information on switching configurations, see Switching Configurations on
page 8.
