Introduction

VIDEO MODULE OVERVIEW

The Video Module is a member of the ATLAS family of integrated access products,

providing two independent video ports, each including an RS-366 dialing interface

(DB-25) and a synchronous DTE port (interface connector determined by custom

cable).

The Video Module combines with the ATLAS 800 Series base unit and other

ATLAS modules to provide a comprehensive, cost-effective solution for any orga-

nization supporting an ISDN videoconferencing network. As many Video Modules

can be installed in a system as can be physically accommodated in the ATLAS 800

Series chassis. Figure 1-1 shows a sample application.

Figure 1-1. Video Module System

Used in conjunction with the Nx56/64 BONDing Module, the ATLAS 800 Series

system (with an installed Video Module) will be able to terminate ISDN PRI or BRI

circuits (using the Quad T1/PRI or Octal BRI Modules, respectively) and provide

high-bandwidth video data streams to a video codec.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

The Video Module installs in any available option slot in the ATLAS 800 Series

chassis. You can view the status of the module itself, as well as the circuits to which

it interfaces. The terminal menus are accessible using a VT100 terminal connection

(through the CONTROL port) or a Telnet session (through the Ethernet port). Use

the terminal menu to configure the Video Module and to download application soft-

ware.
