Meridian 1 3 System reliability Meridian 1 systems are designed and built to meet the highest standards for reliability, resulting in less downtime and increased system availability. In most systems, critical system elements are duplicated to guarantee system reliability. There are two identical Central Processing Unit (CPU) and memory circuits in most system configurations, and both CPUs can access both memory circuits. If one CPU or memory circuit fails, the system automatically switches to th

4 Meridian 1 systems. A System Monitor is installed in.the pedestal of each column. The System Monitor located in the column containing CPU0 acts as the master system monitor; monitors located in other columns act as slaves. The master polls the slaves and reports their status to the CPU. The master System Monitor is connected to the CPU by an RS232C port located on an SD1 card. Slave System Monitors are connected to the master in a daisy chain fashion with an 8-conductor RJ type connector. Syst

9 System architecture Meridian 1 modular architecture An important characteristic of Meridian 1 systems is a modular system architecture. It utilizes an efficient and flexible approach, employing modular construction in all areas of hardware and software, and state-of-the- art commercial and custom components. The result is a system which is highly flexible in terms of operational, maintenance, and administrative characteristics. As demands dictate, any module may be enhanced, singularly or in c

10 System architecture Peripherals Peripheral equipment provides the analog and digital interfaces for all peripheral devices, and performs analog to digital conversion of all input signals before switching is performed by the Network. Additionally, Peripheral equipment circuits provide the supervisory and transmission functions needed for trunks connected to the external telecommunications network. Meridian 1 systems use a star topology for connecting peripheral devices to the switching equipme

Overlay programs provide the system interface for maintenance, service change, and traffic measurement. Each overlay program is independent and has its own specific set of commands and formats. Overlay programs may be run concurrently with normal call processing without interfering with system traffic. There are five main categories of overlay programs: Service Change and Pr
