Installing the 3200 Series Standalone


If you are here, you have a 3200 series unit that you will set up as a standalone system. This section covers the following procedures:



Connecting to the 3200 Series Gateway Management Interface


The 3200 series gateway provides redundant management interfaces enabling administrators to perform management tasks on the 3200 series unit.


Prerequisites To communicate with the management interface, the following is needed:

• One CAT5 Ethernet cable with RJ45 male-male terminations.


Interconnections The 3200 series gateway provides redundant management interfaces each using one gigabit Ethernet network link.


To communicate with the management interface:

  1. Connect the supplied CAT5 Ethernet cable to the port labeled “MGMT0” at the rear of the 3200 series gateway.



Standalone: Connecting to a VoIP Network


The 3200 series gateway features redundant GigE ports for connection to different VoIP networks. This provides an access point to manage VoIP traffic. Should one of the IP physical interfaces fail, the 3200 series gateway will continue to manage VoIP traffic using the alternate physical interface.


The IP address of the VoIP ports can be modified using the web portal.

Certain configurations of the 3200 series gateway will exceed 100 Mbps, therefore 1000 Mbps is recommended.


Prerequisites To connect the 3200 series gateway to the VoIP network, you will need:

  • Gigabit layer 2 Ethernet switch. A second one is required to support redundancy of the VoIP interface.
  • One or two CAT5 Ethernet cables with RJ45 male-male terminations.
  • If your system has access to a second VoIP network, you can connect it to a second VoIP interface of the 3200 series gateway with an RJ45 (male-male) CAT5 Ethernet cable.


Connections The 3200 series gateway is connected to the VoIP network by one or optionally two Ethernet GigE network links.


To connect the 3200 series unit to the VoIP network:

  1. Connect a CAT5 Ethernet cable to VoIP0 at the rear of the 3200 series gateway. Connect the other end of the same CAT5 cable to the gigabit Ethernet switch.
  2. If your system employs a second gigabit Ethernet switch for redundancy, connect a second CAT5 Ethernet cable to VoIP1 at the rear of the 3200 series gateway. Connect the other end of the same CAT5 cable to the second gigabit Ethernet switch.



Standalone: Connecting to the PSTN


This section only applies to the TMG3200 and TSG3200 systems.


Prerequisites To connect to the PSTN network, you must comply with one of the following:

  • Your 3200-TE features SCSI connectors that in turn connect to an SCSI patch panel to terminate in RJ48C connectors for connection to T1/E1 lines. You require one patch panel for each 32-line grouping of T1/E1 line interfaces.

• Your 3200-DS3 features BNC connectors for connection to DS3 lines. You require two coaxial cables for each DS3 interface. • Your 3200-STM1 features electrical or optical STM-1 connectors. You require two fiber optic cables for each STM-1 interface.

SCSI Interface (T1/E1) for the 3200-TE


A 3200-TE and SCSI patch panel enables the connection to T1/E1 lines. The termination impedance is set at 120 ohms. It is possible to connect an external balun in order to convert to 75 ohms.

All ports may not be active. T1/E1 ports are activated by software license; the number of active ports depends on the licenses purchased.

Patch panels use straight connections. In other words, they do not cross the RX and TX signals. Connections between the patch panels and the 3200 series gateway require straight cables. The supplied SCSI cables are straight cables. Cables used to connect the network to the patch panel must do the cross connection.

To connect the 3200-TE to the PSTN:

  1. Start with SCSI ports 0-15 located at the bottom right as shown in figure 2.4 on page 19. Connect one SCSI cable between this port and SCSI patch panel number 1, ports 0-15. Connect SCSI ports 16-31 to patch panel number 1, ports 16-31.
  2. Repeat step 1, using lines 32-63 and a second patch panel. Connect lines 32-47 to patch panel 2, ports 0-15. Connect lines 48-63 to patch panel 2, ports 16-31.



Dual BNC Interface (DS3) for the 3200-DS3


A 3200-DS3 with 3 sets of BNC connectors enables the connection to DS3 lines.

All ports may not be active. DS3 ports are activated by software license; the number of active ports depends on the licenses purchased.

To connect the 3200-DS3 to the PSTN:

  1. Start with the Dual BNC port pair #0 (right-most). Connect one pair of BNC cables between this port and the DS3 line.
  2. Repeat step 1, using the next available pair of BNC PSTN interface ports.
  3. Connect to the BITS Interface using BITS or SS7 links.



Optical Interface (OC3/STM-1) for the 3200-STM1


A 3200-STM-1, with one main and one backup OC3 or STM1 port enables connection to OC3/STM1 lines. See figure 2.6 on page 21. Refer to table 2.3 on page 21 for a listing of optical interfaces. The default SFP module for OC3/STM1 connection is SMF, intermediate reach, (SFP-OC3-IR1) 1310 nm with LC type connectors.

Ensure that the correct SFP model is selected when ordering. If your installation requires a different model from the one that has been provided, you must replace it.
Optical Interfaces
Transceiver Model Description Spec Mode Type Range (km) Wavelength (NM) Connection
SFP-OC3-IR1 OC3/STM1 Hot Pluggable Single-mode Intermediate reach 15 1310 LC
SFP-STM1E STM1E (Electrical) Hot Pluggable 75 ohms Copper Max 180m 1 NA DIN (mini-coax)

Automatic Protection Switching The APS port is used for OC3/STM1 redundancy. Switchover occurs automatically based on configurable parameters. It is recommended that APS be used if the installation provides this feature.

To connect the 3200-STM1 (Optical Interface) to the PSTN:

  1. Connect a fiber optic cable between the Port 0 (Main) port and OC3/STM1 line, as shown in figure 2.6 on page 21.
  2. Connect a second fiber optic cable between the Port 1 (APS) port and OC3/STM1 line.



Standalone: Grounding the Equipment Chassis



As a standard safety practice, the chassis of the 3200 series gateway must be properly grounded to protect against any contact with an electrical fault condition. It is recommended that the chassis be connected to an earth ground. When the 3200 series gateway is installed in an equipment rack, connect the ground wire between the ground lug of the gateway and the equipment rack ground bar. If more than one 3200 series gateway is installed in an equipment rack, each 3200 series gateway must be grounded directly to the equipment rack ground bar.

Guidelines

  • Use 10 AWG (minimum) stranded ground wire.
  • Terminate equipment side of ground wire with a #10 ring terminal.
  • Keep the length of the ground wire as short as possible.
  • Do NOT daisy chain the ground between equipment. Use a ground bus bar.
  • Do not over tighten ground lug connections.

To connect to the 3200 series gateway to ground:

  1. Connect one end of a ground wire to the ground lug of the 3200 series gateway (AC or DC model).
  2. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a ground bar of the equipment rack. If the 3200 series gateway is not installed in an equipment rack, connect the ground wire to earth ground. In the case of DC powered units, connect an additional ground wire from the chassis ground terminal of each DC supply.
  3. Verify that the resistance of the ground path is less than 0.5 ohms.



Standalone: Powering Up


The 3200 series gateway is furnished with two AC or DC power connections. Only once all other equipment installation work has been completed should the 3200 series gateway be powered up.



Connecting to AC Power


Prerequisites To power the 3200 series gateway, you will need:

  • One to two power sources (138W).
  • Two power cables for the 3200 series gateway.

The 3200 series gateway AC model is furnished with two AC power connectors.

To connect to AC Power:

  1. Connect an AC power cable between the AC connector of the 3200 series gateway and an AC supply.
It is important to connect both power supplies, to avoid setting off the audible alarm.




Connecting to DC Power


The 3200 series gateway DC model is furnished with two DC power connection ports.

Fuse and Cabling Requirements

16 AWG wiring must be used and the 48V supply must be protected with a customer provided 5A 48V fuse.

To connect to DC power:

  1. Connect one wire from the positive terminal of the 3200 series gateway to the return side of DC power source one.
  2. Connect another wire from the negative terminal of the 3200 series gateway to the -48V side of DC power source one.
  3. Connect a ground wire from the ground terminal of the 3200 series gateway to earth ground.
  4. Repeat steps 1-3 for the second power DC power source.



Standalone: Start Up


The first time that you connect to a 3200 series gateway, the web portal will appear and you will be asked to select how you would like to configure the 3200 series gateway. Make certain to set the role as a 3200 series standalone.


Once the configuration settings have been applied, the 3200 series gateway will start up and display the web portal configuration management tool.
