5.4.1 CDS-100  CDM-850 Control Interface Cabling Using Kit
KT-0000265
1) Excluding modems, the KT-0000265 CDS-100 Diversity Switch Kit (Sect. 5.2.1)
provides all components shown in Figure 5-15.
2) When you connect the Control Interface cables between the CDS-100 and the
CDM-850s, make sure that you securely fasten the screw locks on the Type ‘D’
connectors. This prevents accidental disconnection of the cables, particularly
when you are removing and replacing a backup unit.
3) The CDM-850 employs 10/100/1000 Ethernet (Gigabit Ethernet, also referred to
throughout this chapter as GigE or GbE) as its sole terrestrial data interface. All
cables and switches must be user-supplied. See Sect. 5.4.2 for the CDM-850
Gigabit Ethernet terrestrial data interface configuration and connection
examples and details.
CAUTION – It is ESSENTIAL that you make the control connections correctly.
