Cable Interface Line Card Overview
Cisco cable interface line cards, together with IF-to-RF upconverters, serve as the radio frequency (RF) interface between the cable headend and Data over Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS)-compliant cable modems or EuroDOCSIS-compliant cable modems and set-top boxes (STBs). Cisco cable interface line cards separate downstream output and upstream input cable interfaces on the Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router to enable downstream and upstream signal combining and splitting arrangements.
Cisco cable interface line cards can be used in both 6 MHz National Television Systems Committee (NTSC) standard and 8 MHz Phase Alternating Line (PAL) and Systeme Electronique Couleur Avec Memoire (SECAM) standard channel environments.

Cisco uBR-MC11 Cable Interface Line Cards
The Cisco uBR-MC11 line cards feature one downstream modulator and one upstream demodulator. Two different hardware versions of this cable interface line card currently exist.
Note
These cable interface line cards are no longer available.
Cisco uBR-MC11 FPGA
Note
The Cisco uBR-MC11 FPGA line card is not supported in the Cisco uBR7246VXR router.
The Cisco uBR-MC11 FPGA line card supports 64 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) at 27 Mbps downstream and quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) at 1.280 kbps upstream default data rates. The card output is +32 dBmV +/- 2 dB.
Note
Because the Cisco uBR-MC11 FPGA line card supports only one upstream modulation and channel width, you cannot define an upstream modulation profile for the card. Refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide for a more detailed description of upstream values. The default modulation profile 1 cannot be changed when using the Cisco uBR-MC11 FPGA line card.
Cisco uBR-MC11C
The Cisco uBR-MC11C line card supports 256 QAM at 40 Mbps downstream and 16 QAM at 5 Mbps upstream default data rates. The Cisco uBR-MC11C supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6 and the card output is +42 dBmV +/- 2 dB.
Figure 1 Cisco uBR-MC11C Cable Interface Line Card
Cisco uBR-MC12C Cable Interface Line Cards
The Cisco uBR-MC12C line card features one downstream modulator and two upstream demodulators. The card supports 256 QAM at 40 Mbps downstream and 16 QAM at 5 Mbps upstream default data rates. The Cisco uBR-MC12C supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6, and the card output is +42 dBmV +/- 2 dB.
Note
Cisco uBR-MC12C line card is no longer available.
Figure 2 Cisco uBR-MC12C Cable Interface Line Card
Cisco uBR-MC14C Cable Interface Line Cards
The Cisco uBR-MC14C line card features one downstream modulator and four upstream demodulators. The card supports 256 QAM at 40 Mbps downstream and 16 QAM at 5 Mbps upstream default data rates. The Cisco uBR-MC14C line card supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6 and the card output is +42 dBmV +/- 2 dB.
Figure 3 Cisco uBR-MC14C Cable Interface Line Card
Cisco uBR-MC16 Cable Interface Line Cards
The Cisco uBR-MC16 cable interface line cards feature one downstream modulator and six upstream demodulators. Four different hardware versions of this cable interface line card currently exist.
Cisco uBR-MC16B
The Cisco uBR-MC16B line card supports 64 QAM at 27 Mbps downstream and QPSK at 2.56 Mbps upstream default data rates. In QPSK upstream operation, the Cisco uBR-MC16B line card supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6. In 16 QAM upstream operation, the Cisco uBR-MC16B line card excludes support for two of the five upstream symbol rates—2.56 M and 1.28 M. Similarly, in 256 QAM downstream operation, the Cisco uBR-MC16Bline card excludes support for the same two DOCSIS symbol rates. The Cisco uBR-MC16B cable interface line card output is +32 dBmV +/-2 dB.
Note
The Cisco uBR-MC16B cable interface line card is no longer available.
Cisco uBR-MC16C
The Cisco uBR-MC16C line card supports 256 QAM at 40 Mbps downstream and 16 QAM at 5 Mbps upstream default data rates. The Cisco uBR-MC16C line card supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6, and the card output is +42 dBmV +/- 2 dB.
Figure 4 Cisco uBR-MC16C Cable Interface Line Card
Cisco uBR-MC16E
The Cisco uBR-MC16E line card supports 256 QAM at 40 Mbps downstream and 16 QAM at 5 Mbps upstream default data rates. The Cisco uBR-MC16E line card supports all upstream channel widths described in Table 6, and the card output is +40 dBmV +/- 2 dB. The Cisco uBR-MC16E line card supports the ITU J.83 Annex A physical layer and the proposed EuroDOCSIS standard (ECR RFI-R-98036) from Cable Labs.
The Cisco uBR-MC16E line card is designed to provide two-way data over cable between a headend and EuroDOCSIS-compliant cable modems and STBs in the 5- to 65-MHz downstream and 85- to 860-MHz upstream European PAL/SECAM 8-MHz channel environments.
Note
Although all other Cisco cable interface line cards transmit downstream signals to upconverters using a 44-MHz frequency, the Cisco uBR-MC16E line card transmits downstream IF signals to an upconverter using the 36.125-MHz frequency.
Figure 5 Cisco uBR-MC16E Cable Interface Line Card
Note
Be sure that you have an appropriate Cisco IOS release software image to support both your Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router and Cisco uBR-MC16E line card. For specific information regarding minimum chassis and cable interface line card software image requirements, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide. See the "Related Documentation" section.
Cisco uBR-MC16S
The Cisco uBR-MC16S line card consists of a motherboard (based on the Cisco uBR-MC16C cable interface line card) and an additional "piggy-back" spectrum management card. The Cisco uBR-MC16S line card supports 256-QAM at 40 Mbps downstream and 16-QAM at 5 Mbps upstream as the default data rates. The Cisco uBR-MC16S line card supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6, and the line card output is +42 dBmV +/- 2 dB. In addition, the Cisco uBR-MC16S line card features advanced spectrum management capabilities made possible by hardware and software enhancements.
The advanced spectrum management capabilities of the Cisco uBR-MC16S include the ability to hierarchically scan portions of the upstream spectrum for clean channels of varying widths. For more specific information on Cisco uBR-MC16S capabilities and programming, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Software Configuration Guide.
The Cisco uBR-MC16S line card spectrum management daughter card is able to sample the 5- to 42-MHz upstream frequency spectrum and initiate frequency hops based on that information. When a threshold percentage of offline cable modems has been reached, the spectrum management card takes a snapshot of the available upstream spectrum and then passes this information to the Cisco IOS software, where it is analyzed for indications of significant ingress and impulse noise. From this analysis, the Cisco IOS software draws informed conclusions regarding the cleanest portions of the upstream frequency spectrum and automatically initiates a frequency hop to clean upstream channels. The user-defined threshold value is specified by a command in the configuration file of the Cisco uBR7200 series router. For more information, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide. See also the Cisco uBR7200 Series MC16S Cable Modem Card Spectrum Management and Cisco uBR7200 Dynamic Upstream Modulation feature modules.
Figure 6 Cisco uBR-MC16S Cable Interface Line Card
Note
Be sure that you have an appropriate Cisco IOS release software image to support both your Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router and Cisco uBR-MC16S. For specific information regarding minimum chassis and cable interface line card software image requirements, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide. See the "Related Documentation" section.
Cisco uBR-MC16U/X
The Cisco uBR-MC16U and Cisco uBR-MC16X (Cisco uBR-MC16U/X) cable interface line cards are two of the new broadband processing engine (BPE) series of cable interfaces that are available for the Cisco uBR7246VXR universal broadband router. The BPE cards provide increased performance and advanced radio frequency (RF) management, as well as innovative, integrated tools for sophisticated content, traffic, and network management.
The Cisco uBR-MC16U/X card has one downstream port and six upstream ports, organized into a single DOCSIS MAC domain. There are two versions, the Cisco uBR-MC16U and the Cisco uBR-MC16X, which are identical except for the type of upconverter that the downstream ports use:
•
Cisco UBR-MC16U card—Each downstream port includes an onboard integrated upconverter that generates an RF signal suitable for connection to a combiner and transmission on the coaxial cable network, without the need for any external upconverters.
•
Cisco uBR-MC16X card—The downstreams on this card do not include integrated upconverters. Instead, the downstream ports generate an IF signal that must be converted through an external upconverter before transmission on the cable network. This allows the Cisco uBR-MC16X card to easily replace existing line card installations that currently use external upconverters.
Figure 7 shows the front panel of the Cisco uBR-MC16U card, and Figure 8 shows the front panel of the Cisco uBR-MC16X card.
Tip
The cards have colored tabs; green indicates a "U" card, yellow indicates an "X" card.
Figure 7 Cisco uBR-MC16U Cable Interface Line Card Faceplate
Figure 8 Cisco uBR-MC16X Cable Interface Line Card Faceplate
Note
The downstream on the Cisco uBR-MC16U card is labeled "DS0 RF" to indicate that it outputs an RF-wave from the internal upconverter. The downstream on the Cisco uBR-MC16X card is labeled "DS" to indicate that it outputs an IF-wave that requires an external upconverter.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)CX and later releases, the downstream ports support 64-QAM and 256-QAM, and the upstream ports support QPSK, 8-QAM, 16-QAM, 32-QAM, and 64-QAM modulation, depending on the upstream's mode of operation.
Depending on the configuration, the Cisco uBR-MC16U/X line card supports either DOCSIS or EuroDOCSIS operation:
•
DOCSIS cable networks are based on the ITU J.83 Annex B physical layer standard and Data-over-Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS, Annex B) specification, which use 6 MHz National Television Systems Committee (NTSC) channel plans. In this mode, the downstream uses a 6-MHz channel width in the 85- to 860-MHz frequency range, and the upstream supports multiple channel widths in the 5 to 42 MHz frequency range.
•
EuroDOCSIS cable networks are based on the ITU J.112 Annex A physical layer standard and European DOCSIS (EuroDOCSIS, Annex A) specification, which use 8 MHz Phase Alternating Line (PAL) and Systeme Electronique Couleur Avec Memoire (SECAM) channel plans. In this mode, the downstream uses an 8 MHz channel width in the 85- to 860-MHz frequency range, and the upstream supports multiple channel widths in the 5- to 65-MHz frequency range.
When operating in either the DOCSIS or EuroDOCSIS mode of operation, the Cisco uBR-MC16U/X card supports the following types of networks:
•
TDMA-only mode, which supports only DOCSIS 1.0 and DOCSIS 1.1 cable modems.
•
A-TDMA-only mode, which supports DOCSIS 2.0 cable modems.
•
Mixed TDMA/A-TDMA mode, which supports both DOCSIS 1.0/DOCSIS 1.1 and DOCSIS 2.0 cable modems on the same upstream.
For more information, see Configuring the Cisco uBR-MC16U/X Cable Interface Line Card at the following URL:
Note
The Cisco uBR-MC16U/X card also supports the extended frequency ranges that are used in Japanese Annex B networks: 70 to 860 MHz (downstream) and 5- to 55-Mhz (upstream).
Cisco uBR-MC28 Cable Interface Line Cards
The Cisco uBR-MC28 cable interface line cards feature two downstream modulators and eight upstream demodulators. Three different hardware versions of this cable interface line card currently exist.
Cisco uBR-MC28C
The Cisco uBR-MC28C line card is divided into two RF domains; each domain has one downstream and four upstream ports. The Cisco uBR-MC28C supports all DOCSIS upstream channel widths described in Table 6 and the DOCSIS downstream for 6-MHz channel width listed on Table 8. The card output is +42 dBmV +/- 2 dB.
The Cisco uBR-MC28C line card requires an NPE-225 or higher (with 128 MB DRAM) in the Cisco uBR7246VXR, and an NPE200 or higher on a Cisco uBR7223 router and a Cisco uBR7246 router to work properly.
Figure 9 Cisco uBR-MC28C Cable Interface Line Card
Cisco uBR-MC28U/X
The Cisco uBR-MC28U and Cisco uBR-MC28X (Cisco uBR-MC28U/X) cable interface line cards are two of the new broadband processing engine (BPE) series of cable interfaces that are available for the Cisco uBR7246VXR universal broadband router. The BPE cards provide increased performance and advanced radio frequency (RF) management, as well as innovative, integrated tools for sophisticated content, traffic and network management.
Figure 10 shows the front panel of the Cisco uBR-MC28U line card, and Figure 11 shows the front panel of the Cisco uBR-MC28X line card.
Tip
The cards have colored tabs; green indicates a "U" line card, yellow indicates an "X" line card.
Figure 10 Cisco uBR-MC28U Cable Interface Line Card Faceplate
Figure 11 Cisco uBR-MC28X Cable Interface Line Card Faceplate
Note
The downstream on the Cisco uBR-MC28U card is labeled "DS0 RF" to indicate that it outputs an RF-wave from the internal upconverter. The downstream on the Cisco uBR-MC28X card is labeled "DS" to indicate that it outputs an IF-wave that requires an external upconverter.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.2(15)CX and later releases, the downstream ports support 64-QAM and 256-QAM, and the upstream ports support QPSK, 8-QAM, 16-QAM, 32-QAM, and 64-QAM modulation, depending on the upstream's mode of operation.
Depending on the configuration, the Cisco uBR-MC28U/X line card supports either DOCSIS or EuroDOCSIS operation:
•
DOCSIS cable networks are based on the ITU J.83 Annex B physical layer standard and Data-over-Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS, Annex B) specification, which use 6-MHz National Television Systems Committee (NTSC) channel plans. In this mode, the downstream uses a 6-MHz channel width in the 85- to 860-MHz frequency range, and the upstream supports multiple channel widths in the 5- to 42-MHz frequency range.
•
EuroDOCSIS cable networks are based on the ITU J.112 Annex A physical layer standard and European DOCSIS (EuroDOCSIS, Annex A) specification, which use 8-MHz Phase Alternating Line (PAL) and Systeme Electronique Couleur Avec Memoire (SECAM) channel plans. In this mode, the downstream uses an 8-MHz channel width in the 85- to 860-MHz frequency range, and the upstream supports multiple channel widths in the 5- to 65-MHz frequency range.
When operating in either the DOCSIS or EuroDOCSIS mode of operation, the Cisco uBR-MC28U/X line card supports the following types of networks:
•
TDMA-only mode, which supports only DOCSIS 1.0 and DOCSIS 1.1 cable modems.
•
A-TDMA-only mode, which supports DOCSIS 2.0 cable modems.
•
Mixed TDMA/A-TDMA mode, which supports both DOCSIS 1.0/DOCSIS 1.1 and DOCSIS 2.0 cable modems on the same upstream.
Note
The Cisco uBR-MC28U/X line card also supports the extended frequency ranges that are used in Japanese Annex B networks: 70- to 860-MHz (downstream) and 5- to 55-Mhz (upstream).
For more information, see Configuring the Cisco uBR-MC28U/X Cable Interface Line Card at the following URL:
Cisco MCxx Interface and Port Names
Downstream ports on the Cisco uBR-MC11, Cisco uBR-MC12, Cisco uBR-MC14, and Cisco uBR-MC16 cable interface line cards are labeled DS. The downstream ports on the Cisco uBR-MC28 card are labeled DS0 and DS1. Upstream ports for all cable interface line cards are labeled US0 through USn where n represents the upstream port. Each cable interface line card designation indicates the number of upstream and downstream ports available on the card. For instance, the Cisco uBR-MC16C contains one upstream port and six downstream ports. The Cisco uBR-MC28C contains two downstream and eight upstream ports configured in two domains.
Table 2 maps the cable interface line card's interfaces and physical port names. In the Interface column, x is a variable for the card slot where the cable interface line card is installed. This column also indicates the domain of upstream/downstream ports: 0 or 1. Currently, only the Cisco uBR-MC28C uses two domains. The Cisco uBR-MC28C contains two downstream and eight upstream ports divided equally into two domains of four upstream ports and one downstream port. Each domain operates independently; you cannot mix and match upstream and downstream ports.
CautionContrary to existing Cisco conventions, the downstream and upstream ports are considered a single logical interface, not separate interfaces.
Cisco uBR-MC16x and Cisco uBR-MC28x Cable Interface Line Card LEDs
Except for the Cisco uBR-MC16S cable interface line card, the LEDs on cable interface line cards are identical in functionality and location. Figure 12 shows the location of the LEDs, using the Cisco uBR-MC28C line card as a representative sample. The Cisco uBR-MC16S line card contains an additional LED for each upstream port to indicate spectrum management activity, as shown in Figure 13. Figure 14 shows the colored tabs used on the Cisco uBR-MC16U/X and
Cisco uBR-MC28U/X line cards. Table 3 describes the functions of the LEDs on the cards.Figure 12 Cable Interface Line Card LEDs (Cisco uBR-MC28C Shown)
Figure 13 Spectrum Management LEDs on Cisco uBR-MC16S
Figure 14 Cisco uBR-MC16U/X (and MC28U/X) Line Cards Have Colored Tabs (uBR-MC16U shown)
Note
Although all other Cisco cable interface line cards transmit downstream signals to upconverters using a 44-MHz frequency, the Cisco uBR-MC16E line card transmits downstream IF signals to an upconverter using the 36.125-MHz frequency. The upconverter must support PAL or SECAM channel operation.
Cable Interface Line Card Specifications
Table 4 lists the default downstream and upstream modulation scheme and output power for each cable interface line card. As noted, the cable interface line cards support either the DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS standards listed in Table 6.

Safety Guidelines and Warnings
Following are safety guidelines that you should take into consideration when working with any equipment that connects to electrical power or telephone wiring.
Electrical Equipment Guidelines
Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:
•
Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working.
•
Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis.
•
Do not work alone if potentially hazardous conditions exist.
•
Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.
•
Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment unsafe; carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, results in complete or intermittent failures. Cable interface line cards comprise printed circuit boards that are fixed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board from ESD, always use a preventive anti-static strap when handling equipment.
Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:
•
Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.
•
Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unfinished chassis surface.
•
When installing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to properly seat the bus connectors in the backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.
•
When removing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to release the bus connectors from the backplane or midplane.
•
Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or connectors.
•
Place a removed component board-side-up on an anti-static surface or in a static shielding container. If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding container.
•
Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects components from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.
•
Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.
CautionPeriodically check the resistance value of the anti-static strap. The measurement should be within the range of 1 to 10 megohm (Mohm).
Figure 17 shows the location of a printed circuit board when it is installed on a Cisco uBR7200 series cable interface line card metal carrier. Do not touch the printed circuit board when handling either component.
Figure 17 Handling the Cisco uBR7200 Series Cable Interface Line Cards—Side View
CautionBe sure to tighten the captive installation screws on the cable interface line cards (use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver). These screws prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the router, and help to ensure that the cable interface line cards are properly seated in the router midplane.

Required Software and Hardware
Ensure that your network is designed to support reliable broadband data transmission. At minimum, your network must include:
•
Computer on the WAN side of your Cisco uBR7200 series router configured as adynamic host configuration protocol (DHCP) server to assign IP addresses to cable modems or set-top boxes on the hybrid-fiber coaxial (HFC) network.
•
Cisco uBR7200 series-compatible IF-to-RF upconverter installed in the downstream data path at your headend site. (Cisco uBR-MC16U cable interface line cards and Cisco uBR-MC28U cable interface line cards do not require upconverters.) The upconverter is installed between the Cisco uBR7200 series router and the combiner. The combiner refers to all cables, amplifiers, and taps at the headend or cable distribution center that connect the Cisco uBR7200 series router to the HFC network.
Note
In a North American 6-MHz channel environment, Cisco cable interface line cards transmit downstream IF signals to IF-to-RF upconverters at a 44-MHz frequency. In a European 8-MHz channel environment, Cisco cable interface line cards transmit downstream IF signals to IF-to-RF upconverters at a 36.125 MHz frequency. Ensure that your particular upconverter supports the appropriate IF input from your cable interface line card.
•
Diplex filters installed in the downstream RF path between the cable modems and the cable interface line cards in the Cisco uBR7200 series router.
•
EIA/TIA-59 headend coaxial cable with the maximum braid available (60% + 40% braid), double foil, and the correct connector for this cable.
Note
For more information on DHCP servers, upconverters, and coaxial cables, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Hardware Installation Guide.
Complete a basic configuration of the Cisco uBR7200 series router. This includes, as a minimum, the following tasks:
•
Configure a host name and password for the Cisco uBR7200 series router.
•
Configure the Cisco uBR7200 series to support IP.
•

•
An appropriate Cisco IOS release software image to support both your Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router and cable interface line card selection. For specific information regarding minimum cable interface line card software image requirements, refer to the "Minimum Software Requirements" section and the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Software Configuration Guide.
Remove and Install a Cable Interface Line Card
The following sections explain how to remove, replace, or install a cable interface line card in the Cisco uBR7200 series routers.
Observe the following warnings and cautions when installing or removing Cisco cable interface line cards.
Warning
During this procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do not directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself. Statement 93
CautionTo prevent jamming the carrier between the upper and the lower edges of the cable interface line card slot, and to ensure that the edge connector at the rear of the cable interface line card seats properly in the midplane, make certain that the carrier is positioned correctly, as shown in Figure 20.
CautionWhen a cable interface line card slot is not in use, a blank cable interface line card must fill the empty slot to allow the router to conform to electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions requirements and to allow proper airflow across all system components.
The Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router supports online insertion and removal (OIR), or "hot swapping," of cable interface line cards. Technically, the Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers support true OIR of cable interface line cards only when exchanging cable interface line cards of the exact same type (for example, exchanging a Cisco uBR-MC28U card for another Cisco uBR-MC28U card). Under these conditions, no reload of the router is required.
CautionWhen you OIR different types of cable interface line cards (for example, a Cisco uBR-MC16C card replaced by a Cisco uBR-MC16S card, or Cisco uBR-MC16C card replaced by a Cisco uBR-MC28U card), you might have to reconfigure the interfaces, and we recommend that you reload the router. Refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Hardware Installation Guide for more specific information regarding OIR.
Removing a Cable Interface Line Card
The following procedure explains how to remove a cable interface line card from a Cisco uBR7200 series router.
Step 1
Make sure that you are properly grounded.
Step 2
Disconnect all cables from the front of the card.
Step 3
Unscrew the captive installation screws. (See Figure 18.)
Figure 18 Captive Installation Screws (Cisco uBR-MC16C Shown)
Step 4
Grasp the handle on the front of the card and carefully pull the card from the chassis.
CautionAlways handle the cable interface line card by the carrier edges and handle; never touch the card's components or connector pins. (See Figure 17.)
Step 5
Place the card on an antistatic surface with its components facing upward, or in a static shielding bag. If the card is being returned to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding bag.
Installing a Cable Interface Line Card
Complete the following steps to install a cable interface line card in the Cisco uBR7200 series router.
Step 1
Make sure that you are properly grounded.
Step 2
Use both hands to grasp the cable interface line card by its metal carrier edges and align the left and right edges of the card with the guides in the card slot. The component side of the card is facing up.
Step 3
Gently slide the card into the slot until you feel the card's connectors mate with the midplane.
The LEDs comes on and then begins to blink as the card goes though a power on self-test (POST). When the POST is complete, the LEDs turn green.
If the LED's do not go on, refer to the "Troubleshooting the Installation" section
Note
Figure 19 and Figure 20 show the chassis with only one cable interface line card being installed and the other available card slot left empty, revealing the inside of the chassis. This is only for illustrative purposes. The Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router should never operate with open cable interface line card slots. All card slots must be filled with Cisco cable interface line cards or blank cards provided by Cisco, to ensure proper airflow through the chassis.
Step 4
Tighten the captive installation screws on the card. If the captive screws on the card do not tighten all the way, the card is not completely seated in the midplane. Carefully pull the card out of the slot, reinsert it, and tighten the captive installation screws.
CautionA partially seated card can cause the Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router to reboot.
Tip
If the line card installation screws do not appropriately assume a locked position, the cable interface line card is not completely seated in the midplane and you need to reseat the card in the chassis.
Figure 19 Aligning the Cable Interface Line Card with the Slot Guide (Cisco uBR7223)
Figure 20 Aligning the Cable Interface Line Card with the Slot Guides (Cisco uBR7246VXR)
Step 5
Connect all required coaxial cables to the front of the cable interface line card.
Note
For more information about cabling, see the "Cabling a New Cable Interface Line Card" section.
Coaxial Cable Specifications
Cisco recommends a high-quality, headend-grade coaxial cable or a quad-shield coaxial cable with a minimum of 60% + 40% braid and double foil insulation to connect the cable interface line cards to the HFC network. The center conductor must be straight and extend 1/8 inch (3.2 mm) beyond the end of the connector. The connector should be securely crimped to the cable. The following cables are recommended:
•
EIA/TIA-59—0.034 inch (0.86 mm) center conductor diameter
•
EIA/TIA-59/U—0.0226 inch (0.57 mm) center conductor diameter
•
EIA/TIA-6—0.041 inch (1.05 mm) center conductor diameter
Note
All three of the coaxial cables listed can be used to connect a Cisco cable interface line card to the HFC network; however, the consistent use of EIA/TIA-59 cable is preferred. If you connect an EIA/TIA-59 cable to a cable interface line card that was previously connected using EIA/TIA-6 cable, the difference in the center connector diameter might cause intermittent connectivity loss.
Coaxial Cable Issues
If you use different types of coaxial cable, the following problems can appear:
•
Co-channel interference—If signals at the same frequency are carried on long, parallel runs of coaxial cable, interference can occur between the signals. Higher-quality cable helps to prevent this with better shielding. Co-channel interference is seen as hum or patterns in analog video channels and as intermittent data loss in digital channels.
•
Damage to Cisco uBR7200 series cable interface line card connectors—Cable interface line card connectors are designed for EIA/TIA-EIA/TIA or EIA/TIA-6 cable and connectors. Larger cables can damage the connectors.
•
High signal return loss—High-quality cable and correct connectors help to ensure an optimal return loss of 16 dB or more.
Note
For additional configuration and site requirement information related to the setup of the analog RF signal and digital data, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Universal Broadband Router Hardware Installation Guide at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/cable/cmts/ubr7200/installation/guide/ub72khig.html
Cabling a New Cable Interface Line Card
To cable a new cable interface line card, connect the downstream ports to an IF-to-RF converter and connect the upstream cables to the upstream ports. With a Cisco uBR-MC28C cable interface line card, do not mix upstream ports from domain 0 with upstream ports in domain 1.
All cards use coaxial cable F-connectors, as shown in Figure 21.
Figure 21 Attaching Cables to the F-Connectors (Cisco uBR-MC28C Shown)
Attenuation Issues
These Cisco MCxx cable interface line cards—Cisco uBR-MC11C, Cisco uBR-MC12C, Cisco uBR-MC14C, Cisco uBR-MC16C, Cisco uBR-MC16S, and Cisco uBR-MC28C— deliver +42 dBmV IF output power to the IF-to-RF upconverter at the cable headend. This power rating is 10-dB greater than earlier Cisco uBR-MC11 FPGA and Cisco uBR-MC16B cards, which delivered +32 dBmV output power. Without an attenuator in your downstream configuration, you could overload the upconverter input, causing an unacceptably low signal-to-noise ratio and possible interference with adjacent channels. However, not all Cisco recommended IF-to-RF upconverters need this attenuator added to their downstream path. Table 9 lists the IF-to-RF upconverters that Cisco recommends if an attenuator is required.
Note
The Cisco uBR-MC16E cable interface line card does not need additional 10-dB attenuation in the downstream path.
Adding Attenuation
If you need to add a 10-dB attenuator to your downstream configuration, perform the following steps.
Step 1
Remove the coaxial cable originating at your cable interface line card from the downstream input F-connector on your IF-to-RF upconverter.
Step 2
Install the 10-dB attenuator on the input F-connector on your IF-to-RF upconverter.
Step 3
Reattach the coaxial cable originating at your cable interface line card to the female end of the 10-dB attenuator to restore your downstream IF link.
Figure 22 displays a simplified example of the downstream path between your cable interface line card and IF-to-RF upconverter with the optional 10-dB attenuator positioned at your upconverter's downstream IF input.
Figure 22 Sample Installation—Using a 10-dB Attenuator at the IF Input of the Upconverter
Troubleshooting the Installation
When the card is inserted into the backplane in the chassis, the LEDs come on and the card goes through the power-on self-test (POST).
Tip
The LEDs blink when the card is going through the POST.
If the enabled LEDs do not come on after the POST, check the following:
1.
Verify that the card is properly seated in the chassis.
a.
Release the ejector levers and captive screws.
b.
Slide the card partially out of the chassis and then slide it back in,making sure that it is properly seated in the backplane.
c.
Close the ejector levers and tighten the captive screws.
2.
Verify that the captive screws and ejector levers are secure.
a.
a. Check that the captive screws are secure in the faceplate.
b.
b. Check that the ejectors levers are properly closed.
3.
Verify that the card has been configured for that slot.
4.
If the enabled LEDs remain off after the above checks, it is likely that the system has detected a processor hardware failure. Contact Cisco TAC for further information.
Basic Cisco IOS Configuration Commands
To effectively configure your Cisco cable interface line card, you need to ensure that you have the minimum required software release to support it. See Table 5 for a list of minimum required Cisco IOS release images by cable interface line card type.
