MALC
20 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
MALC busses
The MALC chassis contains the following buses.
• Control bus
• Supervisory bus
• Metallic test access bus
• Ring voltage bus
• TDM bus
• Packet bus
Control busThis bus is used for program loading and high-level message transfer between MALC cards.
Supervisory busThis bus is used by the active uplink cards for low-level control and monitoring of the other cards.
Metallic test access busThe metallic test access bus is used by the MTAC card to gain access to cards and the buses in the system.
Ring voltage busThe ring voltage bus provides ringing voltage to the cards, such as the POTS card, that require it. The MTAC card generates the ringing voltage and controls access to the ring voltage bus.
TDM busThe TDM bus is used by the POTS cards to send pulse code modulation (PCM)-encoded voice traffic to the uplink card. The uplink card performs the TDM-to-GR-303 and TDM to ATM conversions to send the TDM data to the Class 5 switch or ATM network. Each TDM channel on the bus is assigned to a fixed channel on a POTS card. VoIP signals do not use the TDM bus.
Packet busThe system packet bus is comprised of two 2.5 Gbps buses which combine to produce a total throughput of 5 Gbps. The uplink cards contain packet processors capable of forwarding bridged or routed frames at 5 Gbps as well. Each card has full access to the backplane of 5 Gbps.

Installing the MALC
24 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.
• Never attempt to service this product unless you are an authorized service technician. Doing so can expose you to dangerous high-voltage points or other risks and may result in injury or damage to the unit and void all warranties.
• The MALC system chassis requires a dedicated ground connection to the building ground. If more than one MALC chassis is to be installed on a rack, each one requires its own direct connection to the building ground.
• Slots and openings in the product are provided for ventilation. To ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, these slots and openings must not be blocked or covered.
• DO NOT allow anything to rest on the power cord and do not locate the product where anyone could step or walk on the power cord.
• Special cables, which may be required by the regulatory inspection authority for the installation site, are the responsibility of the buyer.
• When installed in the final configuration, the product must comply with the applicable Safety Standards and regulatory requirements of the country in which it is installed. If necessary, consult with the appropriate regulatory agencies and inspection authorities to ensure compliance.
• A rare phenomenon can create a voltage potential between the earth grounds of two or more buildings. If products installed in separate buildings are interconnected, the voltage potential may cause a hazardous condition. Consult a qualified electrical consultant to determine whether or not this phenomenon exists and, if necessary, implement corrective action prior to interconnecting the product.
• Install the MALC in accordance with national and local electric codes to meet central office requirements. Consult a qualified electrical consultant.
• Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the optical ports of the MALC when no cable is connected. Avoid exposure and do not stare into open apertures.
Preventing electrostatic damage
The system slot cards are susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can cause component failure and degraded system performance. Take adequate precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD) with these cards. Always wear a properly-grounded wrist strap or equivalent protection when handling system cards.
Handle each card by its front panel or stiffener. Never touch the solder side, connector pins, or components on a printed circuit card, and do not allow cards to come into contact with one another.
To prevent damage to system cards when not in use, store and handle the cards in their original antistatic bags. Keep the cards in their original packing
Installation precautions
MALC Hardware Installation Guide 25
cartons to prevent damage caused by dust or dirt. Be sure to store the cards in areas that are free from excessive humidity and temperatures.
Power supply safety information
Install an equipment grounding conductor not smaller in size than the ungrounded branch-circuit supply conductors as part of the circuit that supplies the product or system. Bare, covered, or insulated grounding conductors are acceptable. Individually covered or insulated equipment grounding conductors should have a continuous outer finish that is either green, or green with one or more yellow stripes. Connect the equipment-grounding conductor to ground at the service equipment.
Installation precautionsAvoid creating a hazardous condition by maintaining even weight distribution within the chassis.
WARNING! Two people are required to lift the MALC 719 or MALC 723 systems because they weigh too much for one person to lift. Do not attempt to lift the system chassis without assistance or personal injury can result.
Avoid creating a hazardous condition by following proper procedures when creating intra-building connections.
WARNING! The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intra-building or unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building port(s) of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the OSP or its wiring. These interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of primary protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.
Maximum operating temperature should not exceed 650C (1490F). The temperature of the rack environment may be greater than ambient room temperature when the system is installed in a closed or multiunit rack assembly. Observe the maximum recommended operating temperature as indicated here.
Do not block system air vents; this will deprive the system of the airflow required for proper cooling. Sufficient clearance must exist on all sides of the rack to permit equipment access.
Zhone recommends using cabling ducts for cable routing in rack mounts.
Installing the MALC
26 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
To facilitate proper cooling, cover unpopulated slots with a blank front panel. All slots must have a card or a blank panel installed at all times for EMC, safety and cooling requirements.
The system ships with mounting brackets. To avoid overloading the mounting brackets, and damaging the system, do not use the MALC chassis to support other equipment after it is mounted in the rack.
Connect the system to the power supply circuit as described in this document. Do not overload the system or power supply circuit.
Ensure that proper system grounding is performed and maintained. Use power supply connections for grounding instead of branch circuitry (such as power strips).

Power requirements and specificationsSeparate A and B power feeds allow two individual –48V DC power sources to be connected to the MALC system. The Return (+) terminals are common.For the 19- and 23-inch MALC chassis, the power wiring is field-terminated inside the lower front of the chassis. The MALC 319 chassis is provided with factory-terminated power cables.
Note: The installation site must include overcurrent protection, such as fuses or circuit breakers, that will limit current at the A and B power inputs.
Cabling rules
Following are power cabling rules applicable to the MALC system.
• Provide an appropriate disconnect device as part of the building installation for systems such as the MALC that receive power from an external, auxiliary, or emergency source. When power is routed from a power distribution frame, the disconnect device can be used as a power cutoff (for example, an ON/OFF switch or breaker).
• Connect all disconnect devices so that they disconnect all ungrounded conductors of a DC power circuit when placed in the OFF position.
• All power cables must be rated VW-1 or higher.
• Use power cabling of 10 AWG for applications of 25 feet (7.62 m) or less from the central power distribution bus.

Connecting power and grounding the chassisThis section contains the following information:
• Grounding requirements on page 38
• Connecting power to the MALC and grounding the chassis on page 40
• Connecting power to the MALC 319 and grounding the chassis on page 43
Note: Bare, covered, or insulated grounding conductors must comply with Underwriters Laboratory (UL) standards. Individually covered or insulated grounding conductors shall have a continuous outer finish that is either green or green with one or more yellow stripes. The equipment grounding conductor should be connected to the ground at the service equipment. The grounding cable must be rated at VW-1 or higher.
Zhone recommends grounding the MALC using minimum 10 gauge copper wire and NRTL-listed two hole compression-type connectors (such as Amphenol part number 1527272-3).
Installing the MALC
38 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
Grounding requirementsUse the guidelines in this section to provide a system ground for the MALC.
Before concluding a MALC installation and applying DC power, measure the impedance of the building ground reference and ensure that it is less than 25 ohms, for safety. Use an ECOS 1023 POW-R-MATE or an EMC Instrument Model 3710 or similar meter to do this. Zhone recommends that the impedance be 1 ohm or less for proper equipment operation.
If the ground path connected to the MALC has an impedance of more than 1 ohm, make improvements to the grounding system before installing the MALC equipment.
Other grounding requirements are as follows:
– The earth ground rod is normally buried in the ground at the site. Observe local electrical codes for buried grounding techniques and requirements. Ensure that the ground rod has been installed per local, telco, and NEC code requirements.
– Use a dedicated power source that is only shared with other isolated bonding network (IBN)-configured equipment to provide power to the MALC and all other related equipment. This prevents interference from possible high surge or noise currents present in some industrial buildings. Otherwise, you must ensure a proper grounding path of less than 1ohms to the building ground.
– Use the ground bus of a dedicated AC service panel as the location/site ground of the MALC equipment. This ground bus must already be connected to the main service panel ground or main building ground reference.
– The impedance of the link between the ground terminal of the MALC and the location/site ground to which it is connected must be less than 0.25 ohms.
– The rack the MALC is installed in must be properly grounded. To verify proper grounding of the rack and the chassis to the rack, please see Verifying proper grounding between the chassis and the rack, page 45.
– Never connect a single-point-ground conductor from the MALC to structural steel members or electrical conduits. Specifically, never tie this conductor to a ground source or grounded electrode that is not hard-wired to the building ground reference conductor.
– It is recommended to avoid running in-building cabling near fluorescent lights and other sources of high frequency radiation such as transformers.
– Avoid spliced conductors. Use continuous conductors, which have lower impedance and are more reliable than spliced ones.
Connecting power and grounding the chassis
MALC Hardware Installation Guide 39
– Terminate all conductors in a permanent manner. Ensure all terminations are easily visible and accessible for maintenance purposes.
– Tag ground connections clearly with a message such as “CRITICAL CONNECTION: DO NOT REMOVE OR DISCONNECT.”
– Although some electrical codes permit the use of a conduit as the sole ground conductor between equipment, it is still recommended to use a separate insulated ground conductor through the same conduit. The separate insulated ground conductor maintains the safety ground connection if the conduit is corroded or disconnected.
– Avoid a ground path via serial craft interface RS-232C. The MALC RS-232C local craft interface has pins referenced to ground. To prevent undesirable ground path via an attached computer, it is recommended that you only use a portable computer. If only a desktop computer or VT-100 type monitoring equipment is available, use it in conjunction with a UL/CSA Certified RS-232 Opto-Isolator.
– The thumbscrews for cards must be screwed in.
– Blank face plates must be used in slots that do not have slot cards present.
Ground conductors for the MALC must meet the following requirements:
– No smaller than 10 AWG at any point.
– Does not carry current under normal operating conditions.
– Must be tied to the +48V battery return at the main power Distribution Center. Absence of this connection can cause malfunctions on some cards, including generation of the MALC-MTAC/RINGER-ENH card error message “Internal ringer not detected”.
– Should be hardwired to the main ground reference.

Note: To comply with FCC regulations, cables and connectors must be shielded. If you intend to install cable covers, the maximum height of the connector head and cable should be two inches.
If the MALC is going to be installed in an inside plant, the cables must be shielded and grounded at both ends.
MALC system connectors are located in the front of the chassis. No cables are included with the installation kit. You must order any cables that are required.
System cables and connectors
52 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
Connecting optical ATM trunking cablesWARNING! The single-mode fiber optic interfaces on the OC-3c/STM1 and OC-12c/STM4 uplink cards emit invisible laser radiation that may cause harm. When an optical cable is connected to the card, the radiation is confined to the cable and does not present a hazard. However, if you are servicing the OC-3c/STM1 uplink or OC-12c/STM4 uplink cards, always use the following precautions:
• Disconnect the card from the MALC before installing or removing cables
• Ensure that the protective rubber tips cover the SC connectors when not in use
• Never look directly into the optical ports
1. Disengage the OC-3c/STM1 uplink card from the MALC backplane to ensure that the optic interface is not emitting laser radiation.
2. Remove the protective rubber tips from the SC connectors on one end of the fiber optic cable or cables.
3. Remove the protective rubber tips from the SC connectors on the OC-3c/STM1 uplink card.
4. Gently insert the SC on the cable into the Tx and Rx ports on the uplink card.
5. Connect the other end of the cable that is connected to the uplink card Tx connector to the Rx port on the ATM device.
6. Connect the other end of the cable that is connected to the uplink card Rx connector into the Tx port on the ATM device.
Dressing DSL and POTS cablesCables can be mounted so that they are placed in a down or up position. Use 50-pin connectors to connect the DSL and POTS cards.

66 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
Laser products are subject to federal and state or provincial regulations, and local practices. Regulation 21 CFR 1040 of the U.S. Bureau of Radiological Health requires manufacturers to certify each laser product as Class I, II, III, or IV, depending upon the characteristics of the laser radiation emitted. In terms of health and safety, Class I products present the least hazard (none at all), while Class IV products present the greatest hazard.
Read and observe the following precautions to decrease the risk of exposure to laser radiation.
WARNING! Risk of eye damage. At all times when handling optical fibers, follow the safety procedures recommended by your company.
Although Zhone optical products have a Class I certification, hazardous exposure to laser radiation can occur when fibers connecting system components are disconnected or broken. Certain procedures carried out during testing require the handling of optical fibers without dust caps and therefore increase the risk of exposure. Exposure to either visible or invisible laser light can damage your eyes under certain conditions.
During service, maintenance, repair, or removal of cables or equipment, follow these rules:
• Avoid direct exposure to fiber ends or optical connector ends. Laser radiation may be present and can damage your eyes.
• Follow the manufacturer’s instructions when using an optical test set. Incorrect calibration or control settings can result in hazardous levels of radiation.
Handling optical fibers
When you work with optical fibers, you must take these precautions:
• Wear safety glasses when you install optical fibers.
• Clean your hands after you handle optical fibers. Small pieces of glass are not always visible and can damage your eyes. If you have a piece of a glass in your eye, get medical assistance immediately.
• Never look into an active optical fiber or a optical fiber connector opening of an active or powered-up unit.
• Prevent direct exposure to optical fiber ends or optical connector ends where you can directly access the laser signal. Do not handle pieces of optical fiber with your fingers. Use tweezers or adhesive tape to lift and discard any loose optical fiber ends.
• Wear rubber gloves when you clean optical connectors. The gloves prevent direct contact with the isopropyl alcohol and prevent contamination of the ferrules with skin oils.
Fiber optic maintenance and handling
MALC Hardware Installation Guide 67
• Place all optical fiber clippings in a plastic container provided for that purpose.
• Handle optical fibers with caution. Place the optical fibers in a safe location during installation.
• Protect all optical fiber connectors with clean dust caps at all times.
• Follow the manufacturer instructions when you use an optical test set. Incorrect calibration or control settings can create hazardous levels of radiation.
Selecting cleaning materials
Materials used for cleaning Zhone Technologies equipment should be high quality and suitable for the purpose.
• Disconnect the cable end to be cleaned.
• Using inert dusting gas, blow accumulated dust and debris off the cylindrical and end-face surfaces of the connector.
• Apply optical-grade isopropyl alcohol to a cleaning tissue.
• Gently wipe the tissue over the cylindrical and end face surfaces of the connector perpendicular to the cable, then fold the cloth and repeat the operation. Always use a clean tissue. Reusing the same portion of the tissue may result in recontamination.
• Dry the connector by blowing it with inert dusting gas for two seconds, holding the nozzle approximately inch from the end of the connector.
• Recap or reconnect the connector promptly to avoid contamination. Check for proper system function.
Optical cleaning kits are available from optical supply sources.
Cleaning a connector1 Disconnect the cable end to be cleaned.
2 Using inert dusting gas, blow accumulated dust and debris off the cylindrical and end-face surfaces of the connector.
3 Apply optical-grade isopropyl alcohol to a cleaning tissue.
4 Gently wipe the tissue over the cylindrical and end face surfaces of the connector perpendicular to the cable, then fold the cloth and repeat the operation. Always use a clean tissue. Reusing the same portion of the tissue may result in recontamination.
5 Dry the connector by blowing it with inert dusting gas for two seconds, holding the nozzle approximately inch from the end of the connector.
6 Recap or reconnect the connector promptly to avoid contamination. Check for proper system function.
System cables and connectors
68 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
Cleaning a receptacleClean the optical ports on modules only if there is evidence of contamination or reduced performance. To minimize contamination and cleaning, keep all optical ports securely covered with a connector or a dust cap.
1 Using the extension tube supplied with the inert dusting gas, blow into the optical port to remove any accumulated dust and debris. Do not allow the tube to touch the bottom of the optical port.
2 Using a swab with a small head, such as TexWipe Microswab, and optical-grade isopropyl alcohol, wipe out the optical port.
3 Recap or reconnect the receptacle promptly to avoid contamination. Check for proper system function.
Repairing optical fibersWhen an accidental break in the fiber feeder cable occurs, take the following steps:
1 Notify both central-office and field-repair personnel of the problem.
2 Identify to central-office personnel what fibers are damaged.
3 Power off all laser sources related to the damaged fibers (whether located at the central office, subscriber premises, or remote location).
MALC Hardware Installation Guide 69
MANAGING THE MALC
This chapter describes how to log into the MALC and add a remote management channel. It includes the following sections:
• Logging into the serial (craft) port, page 69
• Configuring a management interface, page 70
Logging into the serial (craft) port
Note: Do not use the serial craft port of a standby card to modify its configuration.
The MALC unit provides an out-of-band RS232 D serial (craft) interface for managing the unit. To access the serial port, configure your terminal interface software with the following settings:
• 9600bps
• 8 data bits
• No parity
• 1 stop bit
• No flow control
Tip: The serial (craft) port settings can be changed by modifying the rs232-profile.
You must perform the initial configuration of the system using the serial (craft) interface. After you have completed the initial configuration, you can manage the MALC unit over the network through a telnet session over the Ethernet interface or over the management PVC.
Note: The MALC supports 6 concurrent management sessions, 5 telnet sessions and a single local session through the serial (craft) port.
Logging in and out of the systemLog into the system (the default user name is admin, the default password is zhone):
Managing the MALC
70 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
login:adminpassword: zSH>
To log out of the system, enter the logout command:zSh> logout
Tip: The system automatically logs you out after a period of inactivity. The default logout time is 10 minutes, but can be changed with the timeout command. Refer to the Zhone CLI Reference Guide for information on the timeout command.
Enabling and disabling loggingBy default logging is enabled on the serial craft port and disabled over telnet sessions. To enable or disable logging for the session, using the following command:zSh> log session on | off
The log session command only applies to the current session. You can also enable or disable logging for all serial craft port sessions using the following command:zSh> log serial on | off
This command setting persists across system reboots.
Configuring a management interfaceThis section describes how to configure the following interfaces to remotely manage the MALC:
• Uplink card 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface on page 70
• ATM management connection on page 72
• Managing the MALC with ZMS on page 74
Note: If you want to manage the MALC over an ATM PVC, first configure the Uplink ATM interface as described later in this manual.
Uplink card 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface
The MALC has a 10/100 BaseT Ethernet interface on the Uplink card. The ip-interface-record for the Uplink card is named ethernet1. This interface is shared between the two Ethernet ports on redundant Uplink cards (if they exist). The system can be reached using the address configured in the ethernet1 ip-interface-record, no matter which card is active.
Configuring a management interface
MALC Hardware Installation Guide 71
Caution: The Uplink card Ethernet interface must be configured before any other interfaces on the system, even if you do not intend to manage the unit over the Ethernet.
Configuring the Ethernet IP interfaceThe following example configures the IP address for the system. Refer to the CLI Reference Guide for a complete description of the command options and syntax.

Adding, changing and deleting card profilesThe card command enables users to add, change, update, and delete card profiles. Optional parameters are available software load filename, card group ID, linetype, line card voltage (ISDN cards only), and status. By default, new card profiles are enabled and use the system assigned software load file.
When you have physically added a card to the MALC, you will need to provision the card with software.
The card change command can be used to change a card profile settings, for example using a different card type. By default, the system validates that there is a match between the software load file and the card type. An optional parameter is available to override validation to use a software load file that does not match the card type. One use of this feature is to reuse profiles and configurations when replacing Annex A cards with Annex A/M cards. Replacement Annex A/M cards can be used as spares or backup for existing Annex A cards.
The card update command can be used to modify card-profile settings after the initial card configuration.

Hardware Maintenance
78 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
Figure 30: MALC 319 LEDs
These LEDs illuminate to reflect the most significant alarm in the system. For example, if there were five major alarms and one critical alarm in the system, only the critical LED would be lit.
Table 19 describes the MALC system LEDs.
Uplink cards and MTAC/RING card each have Active LEDs which illuminate to indicate their redundancy status. A solid green LED indicates the card is active, a blinking green LED indicates the card is standby.
The LED shows very fast green flashes when the uplink cards are between working and standby-ready modes.

If the LED is ON for a provisioned card: The card need to be repaired.If the LED is ON for a standby uplink card: It indicate the standby uplink is not running, or one of the ethernet ports on the standby uplink card does not have link.
Pwr Fail ON: The card has detected a local on-board power failure. While the card may operate properly, it needs repair as soon as possible. For System power status, refer to the appropriate chassis LEDs.
Hardware Maintenance
80 MALC Hardware Installation Guide
• To prevent damage to slot cards when not in use, store and handle the cards in their original containers. Keep the cards in their original packing cartons to prevent damage caused by dust or dirt. Be sure to store the cards in areas that are free from excessive humidity and temperatures.
Caution: The MALC system slot cards are susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD can cause component failure and degraded system performance. Take adequate precautions to prevent electrostatic discharge with these cards. Always wear a properly grounded wrist strap, or equivalent protection, when handling system cards.
Note: MALC and MALC 319 use the same slot cards with the exception of the MTAC/Ring-FC card, which is only used in the MALC 319.
Installing a slot card in the MALC chassis
Note: You must install the uplink card in slot 1 or slot 2 (the 2 left-most slots).
1 Put on an antistatic wrist strap that touches the skin. Make sure it is properly grounded to the ESD jack on the front of the unit.
2 Carefully remove the card from its antistatic packaging.
3 Visually inspect the card for damage. Check the label and part number on the card to verify the type of card being installed is the type needed for the particular application.
4 Holding the card by its faceplate, carefully insert the card into a slot. Hold the bottom ejector open and slowly slide the card onto the backplane pins.
5 Close the bottom ejector to firmly seat the card.
Caution: To prevent damage to the backplane pins, do not force cards onto the backplane pins when seating the cards. If you have trouble seating a card, check that it is in the correct slot, pull the card out, and try seating it again by pressing gently.
6 Slide the card lock down.

Cleaning and replacing the air filterZhone recommends you clean or replace the MALC air filter every 3 to 6 months.
Cleaning the air filterBefore cleaning the air filter, visually inspect it for damage. If the filter is damaged, replace it.
When cleaning the filter, avoid using harsh solvents or cleaning agents. Even though this type of filter may be cleaned, replacement is recommended every two to three years to ensure media durability and eliminate residual dust build-up and subsequent air flow resistance.
If the filter condition is good then, any of the following methods can be used to clean the filter:
– Vacuuming.
– Compressed air. Direct the compressed air in the opposite direction of normal air flow.
– Rinsing with cold water. Allow the filter to completely dry before reinstalling it in the MALC chassis.
Cleaning and replacing the air filter
