DSLAM modem.
Results of the modem sync process are reported in the command line interface as
passed or failed, accompanied with the appropriate sync rates obtained between the
BSO module and the DSLAM modem port.
If a pass occurs, the configurations on the BSO and DSLAM are set correctly.
If a failure occurs, several factors may be impacting the sync between the BSO module and the
DSLAM port.
Verify that the BSO configuration is properly configured, assure that the test
access device is properly performing the look-in test access or check the DSLAM
for proper provisioning of the port that is attempting to perform sync.

The first assembly in a multi-assembly TELACCORD 1000 system must always be equipped
with a TCC.
The subsequent assemblies will have an MCC or MCLK in place of the TCC, per requirements
The Matrix Clock Card regenerates the clock signals from the Trunk Control Card in the
first TELACCORD 1000 assembly to the Relay Matrix Cards of its own TELACCORD
1000 assembly, and to the Matrix Clock Card of the next downstream (daisy chained
chassis)
The Matrix Communication Card (MCC) is required to regenerate the Tip and Ring
connections of the Trunk Control Card after every 1,000th non-switched circuit or if
there is more than 50 feet between assemblies. The regenerated signal, therefore,
supports a maximum of five TELACCORD 1000
To daisy chain, starting with the first assembly, connect a standard 25-pair female
connector into the Out side of the assembly. Using a build-out of units horizontally
from left-to-right and at least 4 inches of cable (but less than 50 feet), connect a female
connector to the In side of the next contiguous assembly.
