Overview

This document explains how to install or replace Aculab Prosody X PCI Express E1/T1 High

Capacity Digital Access telephony interface cards, referred to as a Prosody X PCIe linecard, in a

OneBox Call Server platform. The information in this document pertains to platforms running

OneBox version 5.0 SP3 and later.

The Aculab Prosody X PCIe linecard is a full media TDM telephony linecard with on-board DSP

that provides call and signaling control of an E1 or T1 telephony interface. It supports a wide

range of signaling protocols including: DPNSS, CAS, and Q.sig. The Prosody X PCIe E1/T1

linecard is used to integrate OneBox with a telephone system using one of these supported

signaling protocols.

Aastra recommends that you read this document in its entirety before beginning the installation

process.

NOTE The information in this document applies to Aculab Prosody X PCI Express, also referred

to as PCIe linecards. For more information on Aculab hardware or software, visit their web site

at http://www.aculab.com.

Before You Begin

Review this section before performing any of the procedures in this document. This section

provides important information about electrostatic discharge and the tools and equipment

required to complete the installation.

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Warning

Computer components are extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). You must wear

an anti-static wrist strap and install the linecard at an ESD-safe workstation. Do not open the

static-protective container until necessary. Before removing the linecard from the static-

protective container, touch the container to a grounded, unpainted metal surface for at least two

seconds (this drains the static electricity from the container and from your body). Turn off and

unplug your computer before removing the case.

Gathering Tools and Equipment

Before you begin disassembling the OneBox platform, verify that you have the following

required tools and equipment:

OneBox Telephony Server DVD

One or more Aculab Prosody X PCIe linecards

CTbus cable to connect multiple linecards

One high impedance (120-Ohm) PBX line interface cable with an RJ-45 for each

Prosody X PCIe linecard you are installing. If you are using a 75Ω BNC connection to

the telephone system, you must use a BNC/RJ45 adapter.

License (feature) key to enable the correct number of lines

Planning an E1 or T1 Application

About E1 and T1

OneBox supports a variety of H.100 bus telephony linecards to implement E1 or T1. Each E1

format carries data at the rate of 2.048 megabits per second, provides 30 voice channels per

span, and is in used in public telephone networks throughout the world (except in North America

and Japan). Each T1 format carries data at the rate of 1.544 megabits per second, provides

either 23 or 24 voice channels per span depending on your configuration. This format is typical

in public telephone networks throughout North America and Japan. E1 and T1 circuits are used

in private networks as well, including computer telephony integrations, around the world. To

implement E1 or T1 successfully using Aculab PCI cards, you must be familiar with the

definitions and guidelines provided in this document.

About the H.100 Bus

To support OneBox, Aastra sells PCIe linecards that exchange data with one another through a

H.100-compliant resource bus. The H.100 standard specifies a hardware design that supports

signals from several earlier resource bus specifications including CTbus, SCbus, MVIP, and

others.

Each telephony linecard in the Call Server platform is equipped with an H.100 connector, to

which a H.100 bus cable is attached, connecting each telephony linecard’s H.100 bus together

through the bus cable. Because the OneBox software is designed to work without terminated

resource buses, it is not necessary to add a terminator pack of any sort to either end of the

H.100 bus cable or to change the termination settings on any H.100 bus linecard in the system.

NOTE The terms CT bus and H.100 are often encountered together. H.100 refers to the specific

variant of the CT bus specification used in PCIe linecards.

About PCI Express (PCIe) Cards

Before you begin, verify that the Call Server platform in which you are installing the linecard is

compatible with the PCIe slot requirement of the Prosody X PCIe card. The Aculab Prosody X

PCIe linecard is a full length x4 form factor PCI Express board that requires 25W of power. The

Prosody X linecard can be installed only in an x4 or greater PCI Express chassis slot. An x4 or

greater slot must be able to support a minimum of 25W per the PCI Express Card

Electromechanical Specification Revision 1.0a or higher.

Technical Specifications of the Prosody X

PCIe Linecards

Table 1 lists the technical specifications for the Aculab Prosody X PCIe linecards approved for

use with OneBox.

NOTE Your local telephone company may require some of these specifications. For example, in

the United States, some telephone companies require an FCC registration number if the

linecard is connected directly to central office (CO) lines. Contact your local telephone company

for its requirements.

Installing the Aculab Software

Aculab software is installed automatically with the OneBox Telephony Server software.

However, you must select the Aculab hardware support component on the Select Hardware

Support Components dialog box during setup.

The software is installed as a hardware support component of the OneBox Server software

found on the Telephony Server DVD. The Aculab software is typically installed at the time of the

initial Call Server software installation. However, if it was not been previously installed, you must

install it by re-installing the OneBox Server software.

If you are upgrading from a previous version of OneBox, you may have to un-install a previous

version of Dialogic® software before you begin the installation. If the OneBox InstallShield

Wizard detects an existing version of Dialogic software during the setup process, the installation

is aborted and you are prompted to un-install all Dialogic software first.

For more information on removing previous versions of Dialogic software, refer to OneBox help

or the system Installation manual, Removing and Installing Dialogic and Aculab Software

Support Components.

IMPORTANT If you are removing Dialogic and Aculab software and you are not installing

another version of Dialogic software, you must re-install OneBox software after you un-install

any previous version of Dialogic software.
