Purpose of This Guide

The PacketStar PSAX 1-Por t Channeli zed STS-1e, T1 Format Module User Guide

provides a description o f the 1-Port Ch an nelized STS-1e, T1 Format mo dule.

It also provides informa tion on how to configure the modu le ports an d chan-

nels.

For informa tion on configuring interfaces and provisioning connections

through the P SAX console interface, see the PacketStar PSAX Connections Pro-

visioning Gui de. If the Navis EMS-PSAX interface is being used, see the

Navis EMS-PSAX Interface and Connection Provisioning Guide.

Note: If you a re using th is module for the first time, yo u should readthrough this guide in its entirety before beginning th e configura-

tion process. The cha pters in this guide are arra nged in t he logical

order of normal configuration and should be performed in that

order for th e m odule to operate successfully.

Audience for This Guide

The inform ation in this guide is intend ed for users wh o w ill configure ports

an d cha nn els for the 1-Port Chan nelized STS-1e, T1 Format m odule in the

PSAX Multiservice Media G atew ay system.

2 Module Description

Overview of This Module

The 1-Port Ch an nelized STS-1e, T1 Forma t mod ule (see Figure 2-1) provides

one ph ysical port w ith a line rate of 51.84 Mbps. The phy sical port is divided

(chann elized) into 28 virtual DS1 ports. Each virtual D S1 port can be config-

ured as a structured port an d cha nnelized into 24 individual DS0s, providing

a tot al of 672 chann els. Each v irtual DS1 port can a lso be configured as a sin-

gle structured or u nstruct ured cha nn el. The 1-Port Ch an nelized STS-1e,

T1 Format mo dule provides the follow ing interfaces:

The user can configure this module to provide n X 64 Kbps (fractional DS1)

structured circuit emulat ion service. When configured for DS1 circuit emu la-

tion service, the m odule interfaces w ith TDM chan nelized D S1 circuits. It

converts the chan nelized d igital signals (usually v oice data ) to ATM v irtual

cha nn els. Signa ling bit tran sport is also provided, u sing ATM Forum sta n-

dards for chan nel-associated signaling (CAS). This modu le can connect to a

device using 56 Kbps or 64 Kbps for service transport, w ith 8 Kbps for

robbed-bit signaling per DS0. With the 64 Kbps clear channel capability,

this modu le can connect to a device using ISDN primary ra te interface (PRI)

service. Becau se this structured circuit-emulation service can be configured

to use only a fraction of th e time slots, the user can configure several inde-

pendent em ulated circuits to share on e service interface.

The 1-Port Ch an nelized S TS-1e, T1 Forma t m odu le uses ATM Foru m specifi-

cations UNI 3.0 or UNI 3.1, wh ich allow an y DS1 port to act a s a user net-

w ork interface (UNI), or an interim interswitch protocol (IISP) user or IISP

netw ork interface to an ATM n etw ork.

chassis slot inten ded to contain an I/O or server modu le. If you a re installing

the mo dule in a n ew ly installed PSAX chassis, be sure to follow you r facility

site plan for placing this modu le in the correct location in th e chassis.

LED Indicators

Table 2-3 describes how the light-emitting diode (LED) indicators on the

1-Port Cha nn elized STS-1e, T1 Form at m odu le faceplate respond t o different

modu le conditions. These LEDs indicate if th e mo dule ha s been installedproperly.

Loopback Configuration Options

To a id netw ork troubleshooting a nd testing, loopback capability is provided

for th e 1-Port Ch an nelized STS-1e, T1 Forma t m odu le. The loo pback option

on the m odule port and cha nnel configuration w indow enables you to verify

the integrity of a port by transmitting a received signal back to th e source.

Selecting a loopback option is described in the modu le configuration proce-

dure provided in Cha pter 3.

Figure 2-2 illustrates the line loop an d local loop options.

The 1-Port Ch an nelized S TS-1e, T1 Forma t m odu le also su pports DS1 ANI

(access netw ork interface) in-line codes for loopbacks that enable yo u to testtransmissions betw een customer interface equipmen t and netw ork interface

equipment.

* After pow er is initially applied to the system a nd t he system boot is complete, the FAIL an d

ACTIVE LEDs indicat e w heth er the mo dule ha s no configured ports (red), or one or m ore

* The PSAX System side of a local/remo te configura tion ca n fun ction a s the tester or the testee in con -

figuration w ith anoth er PSAX, a non-PSAX switch, and a m edia gatew ay controller (MGC). Regardless

of tester or testee status, the PSAX system side is alw ays 4-wire. When interfacing w ith a 2-w ire

device, the PS AX conve rts its 4-wire signal (2010-Hz) to a 2-w ire (1780-Hz) signa l w hen replying to a

2-w ire device, thu s operating in transponder mode. As the testee, the PSAX system can act in loop-

back mode if the remote en d is 4-w ire. The loopback mode is configured on th e Media Ga tew ay C on-

troller configured w ith th e PSAX system. The signaling ca ll progress tones (dial, ringing, busy, con ges-

tion, special information, caller w aiting) are generated from the TAS module in CAS mod e in

configuration w ith the MGC. All other signals, such a s continuity check and the 10x tests (102, 105,

an d 108) are generated from the TAS mo dule in TAS mode. See th e Tones an d Annou ncem ents

Server Module User Guide for mo re information.
