Description

Management and Monitoring

The PA-2T3+ is a Cisco 2-Port T3 Serial Port Adapter that provides high-speed connectivity for enterprise and service provider networks. This adapter supports two T3 lines with a maximum bandwidth of 45 Mbps each, providing a total bandwidth of 90 Mbps.

The PA-2T3+ adapter is designed for use in Cisco routers and offers advanced management and monitoring features to ensure that the adapter operates reliably and efficiently. These features include:

SNMP Monitoring: The PA-2T3+ adapter supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) monitoring, which allows network administrators to monitor the adapter’s performance and troubleshoot issues.
Syslog Support: The adapter can also generate syslog messages that provide information about its operation and status. Syslog messages can be sent to a central syslog server for centralized monitoring and analysis.
Real-Time Monitoring: The PA-2T3+ adapter supports real-time monitoring of its performance, including bandwidth utilization, error rates, and packet loss.
Loopback Testing: The adapter supports loopback testing, which allows administrators to test the adapter’s connectivity and performance without disrupting the network.
Configuration Management: The PA-2T3+ adapter supports configuration management features, which allow administrators to configure and manage the adapter’s settings remotely.

Power and Cooling

The PA-2T3+ is a Cisco network interface card (NIC) that provides two T3 serial interfaces for high-speed data transfer. Here’s what you need to know about its power and cooling:

Power: The PA-2T3+ draws power directly from the Cisco router it’s installed in. The power consumption of the adapter is typically around 20 watts per port, so with two ports, it would consume around 40 watts. Make sure your router has enough power to support the adapter.

Cooling: The PA-2T3+ generates heat during operation, so proper cooling is necessary to prevent damage to the card and the router. The adapter is designed to fit in a single slot of the Cisco router and has an onboard fan that provides cooling. The fan is powered by the router’s internal power supply.

When installing the adapter, make sure the router has adequate ventilation to dissipate the heat generated by the adapter and the rest of the router’s components. It’s recommended to keep the router in an area with good airflow and avoid stacking other equipment on top of it.

Deployment and Installation

The Cisco PA-2T3+ is a two-port T3 Serial Port Adapter (SPA) designed for deployment in a Cisco router that supports the SPA interface architecture. T3 is a high-speed, synchronous serial communication protocol that provides up to 44.736 Mbps of bandwidth.

Here are the steps to deploy and install a Cisco PA-2T3+:

Check the router compatibility: Verify that the router model supports SPA interface architecture and is compatible with the Cisco PA-2T3+.
Power down the router: Power down the router and disconnect all power sources before installing the SPA.
Install the SPA: Locate an available SPA slot on the router and insert the SPA into the slot. Push firmly until it clicks into place.
Connect the T3 cables: Connect the T3 cables to the SPA using the BNC connectors on the back of the SPA. Connect the other end of the cables to the appropriate T3 network interface devices.
Power up the router: Once the SPA is installed and the T3 cables are connected, power up the router and verify that the SPA is recognized by the router. You can check this using the show version or show diag command in the router CLI.
Configure the SPA: Use the router’s configuration software to configure the SPA for the specific T3 network interface devices it will be connected to. The configuration may include parameters such as the framing format, line coding, and clocking.
Test the connection: Once the SPA is configured, verify the connection by testing the network communication between the T3 devices.

That’s it! With these steps, you can deploy and install a Cisco PA-2T3+ and start using it to provide high-speed T3 connectivity to your network.
