Cable Interface Line Card Overview
Cisco cable interface line cards, together with IF-to-RF upconverters, serve as RF interfaces between the
cable headend and Data-over-Cable Service Interface Specifications (DOCSIS)-compliant cable
modems, EuroDOCSIS-compliant cable modems, or 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.

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 7, and the line card output is +42 dBmV +/– 2 dB. In addition, the Cisco uBR-MC16S line card
Cisco uBR7200 Series Cable Interface Line Card Hardware Installation Guide

Cable Interface Line Card Overview
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.
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.

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.

OL-4137-03
Cable Interface Line Card Overview
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 5 shows the front panel of the Cisco uBR-MC16U card, and Figure 6 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.

uBR - MC16X
The downstream on the Cisco uBR-MC16U card is labeled “DS0 R” to indicate that its output is an
RF-wave from the internal upconverter. The downstream on the Cisco uBR-MC16X card is labeled “DS”
to indicate that its output is 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:
•
The 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.

Cisco MCxx Interface and Port Names
The downstream ports on the Cisco uBR-MC14 and Cisco uBR-MC16 cable interface line cards are
labeled DS. The downstream ports on the Cisco uBR-MC28 and Cisco uBR-MC88V line cards 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 3 maps interfaces and physical port names of the line cards. 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.

Safety Guidelines and Warnings
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.

Safety Guidelines and Warnings
Caution
Periodically 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.

Metal carrier
Caution
Be 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.

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
Caution
To 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 19.
Caution
When 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.
Caution
When 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.

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 on page 33

Coaxial Cable Specifications
Note
For more information about cabling, see the “Cabling a New Cable Interface Line Card” section
on page 32.
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:
Note
•
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
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:
Note
•
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.
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:

Cabling a New Cable Interface Line Card
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 20.

Attenuation Issues
These Cisco MCxx cable interface line cards—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 10 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.

Troubleshooting the Installation
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 21 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.
