TMCAS-2 (for selected countries only) 
 
NOTE  
Danger of damage to property due to surge voltage. The required lightning protection measures must be taken for this board, see Section 2.1.2 "Lightning Protection".  

Introduction  
The TMCAS-2 card (Trunk Module Channel Associated Signaling) can be used in HiPath 3800 for V5.0 SMR-10 and later to support country-specific CAS protocols.
The card features two E1-CAS interfaces, which together support up to 60 B channels.
Both coaxial trunks (75 ohms) and symmetrical trunks (120 ohms) can be connected to the 15-pin sub-D jacks on the card.
TMCAS-2 functions as a converter, which converts the Euro-ISDN protocol on an S2M link to the Channel Associated Signaling (CAS) protocol. In contrast to the predecessor PBXXX card, TMCAS-2 communicates directly with the central control in the system. All signaling and data traffic goes through TMCAS-2. Unlike PBXXX, a connection with an S2M card is therefore not required.
Up to three TMCAS-2 cards can be used in a HiPath 3800.

An additional shielding panel is not required on the front side of this board, because the EMC shield is already provided by the front panel.

Seven-segment display  
The card's software status can be ascertained on the basis of the seven-segment display. For this a distinction is made between the following boot phases:
 •   U-boot (firmware) states

Modem (optional)  
 Figure 3-107   TMCAS-2 (for selected countries only) - Optional Modem
 
The analog modem (S30122-X8004-X22) is an optional subboard for the TMCAS-2 card, which is plugged into the X20 and X21 ports. This facilitates remote administration of the CAS protocol converter on the TMCAS-2 card (see Seite 3-312).

Administration of the CAS protocol converter  
A separate tool, the CAS Manager, is used to download the software and administer the TMCAS-2. The CAS Manager software is stored on a CD supplied with the card. For information on how to install the CAS Manager software on the Service PC, refer to the readme file.
The following options are available for accessing the card:
 •   Via the V.24 interface (9-pin MINI DIN jack X803) and the connection cable C39195-A9700-B532.
 •   Via the Ethernet (10/100BaseT) interface (RJ45 jack X804).
 •   Via the optional analog modem (S30122-X8004-X22). In this case, you will need to establish a connection from the analog modem to a free port on an analog subscriber line module. Use a connection cable (open-end cable (24 DA)) for the connection Backplane (TMCAS-2) <-> Main distribution frame/Patch panel: Use S30267-Z196-A150 = 15 m in length, S30267-Z196-A250 = 25 m in length) (blue in Figure 3-108). Insert the required jumpers in the main distributor frame or patch panel (green in Figure 3-108).

Assigning both CAS cables  
You can use one of the following two cables to connect network terminators (NT), multiplexers (MUX), or modems to the TMCAS-2 card (15-pin sub-D jacks X909 and X910):
 •   symmetrical line (120 ohms), length = 10 m
