  • Page 25: Chapter 2 Installation

    Chapter 2 Installation Cable modem infrastructures are likely to have unique characteristics. For this reason, we strongly recommend that you completely install one transponder and make it operational before deploying the entire system throughout your network. Installing the transponders and making them operational consists of the following steps, which are explained in detail in this chapter: Provisioning the transponders in the network ...
  • Page 26: Provisioning The Transponders In The Network

    Chapter 2 Installation Provisioning the Transponders in the Network Before installing the transponder, it must be provisioned in the network for the network to recognize, discover, and communicate with the transponder when it is powered up. The following graphic shows a typical network. Note: Some provisioning systems require that the transponder MAC address be added to the CMTS prior to installing the transponder to achieve full functionality.
  • Page 27: Your Network Information

    Time of Day Server IP Address DHCP Server IP Address Deployment of Cisco DOCSIS-based transponders is similar to provisioning standard subscriber cable modems and MTAs. However, there are certain exceptions owing to the transponder being a test device. For example, take care when provisioning that the transponder is not invoiced in the billing system or mistakenly blocked.
  • Page 28: Cable Modem Configuration File

    Chapter 2 Installation Cable Modem Configuration File Confirm that the cable modem configuration file has been successfully modified and tested prior to deploying transponders into the system in quantity. The transponder manages SNMP filters and trap destinations via the docsDevNmAccessTable. To ensure proper management of SNMP access, such as limiting access to certain SNMP managers or allowing the transponder to send SNMP/HMS traps, the docsDevNmAccessTable must be populated via the cable modem configuration file.
  • Page 29: Installing The Transponder

    Remove the transponder from the shipping package. Ensure that the correct pad for the desired application is installed in the pad socket. For GS7000 Node applications, verify the use of the 0 dB pad in the transponder pad socket, as shown below.
  • Page 30 CAUTION: If a pad with a value less than 10 dB is used and the transponder is used in a GS7000 Node, there is a risk the output power of the transponder may be too high for the node transmitter.
  • Page 31 Installing the Transponder Push the transponder down firmly onto the OIB until the transponder seats into position. Use the screws provided with the transponder to secure the transponder to the board. The screw locations are shown in the following illustration. Tighten screws to 25-30 in-lbs (2.8-3.4 Nm).
