The DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card provides three sets of two vertically paired DS3 75-ohm Bayonet-Neill-Concelman (BNC) coaxial cable connectors that are located on the left side of the DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card. Each set of port connectors has both a transmit (TX) connector and a receive (RX) connector. Table 1 lists the DS3 BNC connector sets in relation to the NI-2 cards available for the Cisco 6160 chassis.
The DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card is delivered installed and attached to the two 2-mm hard metric (HM) card connectors, P3 and P9, on the chassis backplane (see Figure 3). The DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card is shown with the metal EMI cover installed.
The RJ-48c receptacles are used for a T1 or T1 IMA configuration. Table 2 shows the pin assignments for the receptacles.

There are 30 wire-wrap pins located on the right side of each DS3/2DS3+8xT1 IMA I/O card that support
Note The relay for the circuit-breaker trip alarm is wired through the small green terminal blocks on the rear of the chassis, not through the wire-wrap connector. |
Both the alarm relays and the BITS clock connections are optional. If you connect the alarm relays, they transmit critical, major, and minor alarms to a separate, external alarm device. The alarm device uses a bell, light, or some other signal to alert service personnel to the change in system status. If you connect the BITS interface, the Cisco 6160 can receive a clock signal from a T1 line.
Figure 4 shows a close-up of the wire-wrap pins.
These pins support the following alarm functions:
Alarm pins are wired to both NI-2 cards, however, only one NI-2 card manages the alarms. The alarm cutoff (ACO) switch that is located on the NI-2 card faceplate shuts off the audible alarms generated by the Cisco 6160 system software.
One of the alarm relay functions provided by the wire-wrap connector is an ACO circuit that you can wire to your external alarm device. To use this feature, connect the alarm device so that it can close the contact between pin 5 and pin 6 in the STAT_ALARMS row.
The connector also provides contacts for the following features, all of which can be used (or not used) separately:
Note There is one set of contacts for audible alarms and one set for visual alarms. You can use either or both sets of contacts. |
You can wire the alarm relay contacts as normally open (NO) or normally closed (NC); however, the ACO circuit can be wired as NO only. Use common (CO) pins for both the NO and NC wiring methods.
Wiring Method | Pins to Use |
---|---|
Normally open | Pin 2 in rows P1, P2, P3 (NO) |
Normally closed | Pin 3 in rows P1, P2, P3 (NC) |
1GND = ground |
Table 3 maps the wire-wrap pins to the alarms supported by the NI-2 card through the Cisco 6160 backplane.
Caution Use extreme caution when wire-wrapping the pin connections for the STAT_ALARMS and BITS_A/BITS_B pins. Incorrect wire connections will cause damage to the equipment. |
