Hi,
I am running an bsr64000 with full of cards:

I have 15 MAC domains on this bsr64000, and now I created the 16th with downstream ports from TX32 in slot 15, and upstream port from RX48 in slot 2.
I created the MAC domain without any warning from the bsr, but the modems can't go online in this MAC domain.
Do you have any ideas what is the reason of it? Is there any limitation using of TX32 in slot 15?
Thank You.
Attila
and I believe 5 is the limit. slot 15 cannot be used for a downstream cards because less air flow, the card has too much heat when all downstreams are turned up. it will go into a constant reset due to heat
Hi,
The 5 TX32 is not limit. For example on an another system I have 6 (7) working TX32:

I don't have problems with much heat.
I can turn up the downstreams on the 7th TX ports in slot 15 and I can creat the mac domains with this DS ports.
The cable modems can catch the DS frequency, but can't go online. The US LED is blinking on the modems.
I have same situation on this cmts too when I use DS ports from the TX in slot 15.
Hi,
I found a description of limitation of using TX32 in slot 15 in guide "BSR 64000 Chassis Installation Guide" for software 6.3.2.1 :
Slot 15 accommodates HSIM Modules, Primary TX32
Modules with the 570760-001 3-Slot Rear I/O and 5-Slot
Rear I/O Modules.
Note:
The TX32 Single-Slot I/O and the 3-Slot I/O
548848-001-00 do NOT support Slot 15 operation.
I don't know what's up with 7th or 8th software?
