ATM switc h is more than one. If this is the c ase, the c alc ulator first attemp ts to 
d etermine if the ap p lic ation is feasib le d esp ite the transit traffic . If it is, it rep orts 
the feasibility as YES
 or PROBABLY
. If not, it rep orts the feasib ility as 
UNKNOWN
, req uiring  sp ec ial eng ineering .
Known limits of commonly used ATM switches
Use the limits shown in Table 1-8 to d o your own c alc ulations. To make it easier 
as you use the c alc ulator, we sug g est that you
1. Selec t and  c op y the values from the tab le in the sp read sheet.
2. Selec t the values on the samp le c alc ulation.
3. Select Edit > Paste Special
 with the transp ose option to p aste the values 
into the c alc ulator.
NOTE:
These limits are the b est we c ould  d etermine at one time. For eac h switc h, 
the examp le shown is g enerally the b est you c an d o, assuming you b oug ht

Installing a DEFINITY ECS
AT M - C E S
This chapter d escrib es the p roced ures for installing  a new DEFINITY ECS 
Release 8 ATM-CES The p roc ed ure is simp le in that you install the DEFINITY ECS 
then install the ATM switc h and the TN2305/TN2306 interfac e c irc uit p ac ks. 
Making  it an ATM-CES is d one ad ministratively (refer to Chapter 5, ‘‘Administering 
ATM-PNC and ATM-CES’’).
NOTE:
ATM-CES works only with TN2305/TN2306 ATM interfac e c irc uit p ac ks.
Equipment Installation
To p rep are for a new DEFINITY ECS ATM-CES installation, you need  to install the 
DEFINITY ECS first. For instruc tions on installing  DEFINITY ECS, refer to the 
following  installation b ooks:
nDEFINITY Enterp rise Communic ations Server Release 8 Installation and  
Test for Multicarrier Cab inets
nDEFINITY Enterp rise Communic ations Server Release 8 Installation and  
Test for Sing le-Carrier Cab inets
nDEFINITY Enterp rise Communic ations Server Release 8 Installation, 
Up g rad es, and Ad d itions for Comp ac t Mod ular Cab inets
Review the reliab ility c onfig urations for DEFINITY Release 8 ATM (refer to Figure 
1-2 through Figure 1-4).
The slot restric tions for a CES c onfig uration are similar to ISDN-PRI c irc uit pac ks. 
In PPNs and  EPNs, ATM interfac e c irc uit pac ks c an oc c up y any available slot in 
a p ort c arrier.

Follow the step s in Table 2-1 to ensure that
nthe ap p licab le equip ment is installed  correctly.
nthe c ustomer’s c onfig uration is p rop erly rec ord ed  (use worksheet in 
Appendix A, ‘‘Baselining the Customer’s Configuration’’
). 
Table 2-1. General installation process
ÖStep Action Description
1. Install DEFINITY ECS Refer to the appropriate installation book for your platform
See 
‘‘DEFINITY ECS configurations’’ on page 1-6 for 
connection schematics.
2. Install ATM switch(es)
or access 
concentratorsRefer to your ATM switch’s quick reference guide.
3.Install ATM interface 
circuit packInsert the TN2305/TN2306 circuit pack(s) into the 
appropriate slot(s).
4.Route the fiber optic 
cables between the 
ATM switch and the 
DEFINITY PPN and 
EPNs.Follow the fiber pass-through procedure in the appropriate 
DEFINITY ECS installation book
.
!WA R N I N G :
Be sure that the fiber optic cable is secured so that 
the door of the DEFINITY ECS switch does not pinch 
or bend the cable.
For csi platform, see Figure 2-1 for a diagram of the NAA7 
board that routes fiber optic cabling from the back of the 
switch to the front.
5.Connect the fiber 
optic cablesConnect the fiber optic cables to the ATM switch.
NOTE:
If the installation uses the customer’s existing fiber, 
you may need an ST-to-SC adapter (1 included in 
Fiber Pass-Through Kit).
6.Connect the fiber 
optic cables to the 
ATM interface circuit 
packsConnect fiber optic cable to the SC connector on the 
faceplate of each TN2305/TN2306 circuit pack in the 
DEFINITY PPN and EPN.
nThe TN2305/TN2306 circuit pack interface requires SC 
connectors (see Note in Step 5).
nDo not reuse existing fiber cabling with ST connectors 
at both the DEFINITY ECS and the ATM switch. This 
requires an ST-to-SC adapter at both ends. It is better 
to order the cable with the SC connectors at both ends.

Synchronization Installation and 
Te s t i n g
A DEFINITY ATM-PNC req uires network sync hronization for DS1 c irc uit p ac ks not 
to slip  relative to the LEC/IXC switc hes. The ATM switc h serves as the sync  
referenc e sourc e for the DEFINITY. The ATM switc h, in turn, d erives p rimary and  
sec ond ary sync . To ac c omp lish this, the most c ommon op tion is to use 
sync hronization exp and ers (sp litters).
7. Connec t the fib er 
op tic  cab les to the 
ATM interfac e circuit 
packsConnect fiber op tic c ab le to the SC c onnec tor on the 
facep late of each TN2305/TN2306 c irc uit pac k in the 
DEFINITY PPN and  EPN.
nThe TN2305/TN2306 c irc uit p ac k interfac e req uires SC 
c onnec tors (see Note in Step  5).
nDo not reuse existing  fib er c abling  with ST c onnec tors 
at b oth the DEFINITY switc h and the ATM switc h. This 
req uires an ST-to-SC ad ap ter at b oth end s. It is better 
to ord er the c able with the SC c onnec tors at b oth 
end s.
8. Rec ord  config uration Record DEFINITY ECS switc h-to-ATM port (p ort loc ations 
for each ATM circuit p ack) in Table A-1
 (in Appendix A, 
‘‘Baselining the Customer’s Configuration’’). 
NOTE:
Read  the MAC ad d resses from the ATM switc h (refer 
to your ATM switc h’s quick referenc e g uid e) and  
rec ord  them in Table A-1
.
9. Rec ord  fib er 
c onnectionsRecord the fiber op tic c ab le runs on the lig htwave 
interface (LIU) d iag ram (Figure A-1

‘‘Baselining the Customer’s Configuration’’.
10. Install and  test

Connections without synchronization splitters
In some c onfig urations the ATM switc hes are trac ed  to network c loc ks throug h 
their SONET/SDH interfac es, not req uiring  any sync hronization sp litters. 
However, the ATM switc h c ould  require a sing le sp litter if only one of the sync  
sourc es is d erived  from the network.
The ATM switc hes may obtain their network sync hronization as follows:
nThe ATM switc h g ets its network timing  referenc e from its 
SONET/SDH/SDIT interfac e to that network.
nOr if the c ustomer wants to use a DS1 sourc e for network sync hronization 
that also hap p ens to b e a DEFINITY ECS switc h trunk, then one sync  
sp litter is nec essary to send  a c op y of that DS1 sig nal to the ATM switc h. 
The DS1 c irc uit p ac k is only an ind irec t timing  referenc e for the DEFINITY 
EC S sw it c h .  
Connections needing synchronization splitters
If the ATM network d oes not p rovid e a sync hronization exp and er (sp litter), then 
the ATM c onfig urations may req uire one that takes a DS1 T1 or E1 signal and  
red irec ts it to the
nATM switc h(es), d epend ing  on c onfig uration and  d up lic ation
nDEFINITY ECS throug h the DS1 c irc uit pac k
