Hotwire DSL System Description 1 What is the Hotwire DSL System? The Hotwire Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) system is a set of central site products that terminate and consolidate packet data traffic from many customers in a serving area. The DSL card(s) then forwards the traffic to one or more network access provider networks. High-speed Internet and intranet access is bridged on the DSL port cards and multiplexed over backbone networks. By enabling very high speeds using DSL technology and con

Hotwire DSL System Description Hotwire DSL Chassis There are four types of chassis: The Hotwire 8600 DSLAM chassis is an independent, standalone system. The stackable design provides for up to six chassis to share management access through a single MCC card, which in turn, allows an additional slot for a DSL card in each of up to five additional chassis. For more information, see the Hotwire 8600 Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) Installation Guide. 3 2 48V RTN AB A B ESD 1 DC

Hotwire DSL System Description The Hotwire 8800 DSLAM chassis is a 20-slot chassis designed to house up to 18 4-port DSL cards and one MCC card. (The remaining slot is reserved for the future use of a redundant MCC card.) For more information, see the Hotwire 8800 Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) Installation Guide. The Hotwire 8810 DSLAM chassis is a higher density carrier, for use with future high-density port cards, as well as lower density cards (4 ports or less). This

Hotwire DSL System Description MCC Card The DSLAM and GranDSLAM chassis require one MCC card, which is a processor card that administers and provides management connectivity to the DSL cards. It acts as a mid-level manager and works in conjunction with a Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) system, such as Paradyne’s OpenLane DCE Manager for HP OpenView, via its LAN port. It gathers operational status for each of the DSL cards and responds to the SNMP requests. It also has a serial port fo
