Network Connections
2.10 Network Connections
External cabling is dependent upon the customer-ordered configuration and
site-specific requirements. These cables will be supplied by the customer. Failure
to use electrically compliant T1 or E1 cables may cause transmission errors.
Please refer to the appropriate subsections to determine your cable requirements.
Installing the Physical E1 or T1 Links
For the first E1 or T1 link between the Micro BTS and the BSC, connect Port 0 of
the Micro BTS E1 or T1 card in slot 1 to the BSC. For additional E1 or T1 links,
you can use any other port on any other Micro BTS (or BTS) E1 or T1 card. After
connecting the E1 or T1 link(s) between the Micro BTS and the BSC, connect the
BSC to the OMC.
Commissioning the E1 or T1 Links
The E1 or T1 links between the Micro BTS and the BSC are commissioned using
the W&G (Wandel & Goltermann) PA-25 multifunction communication analyzer,
or equivalent.
The E1 or T1 connections at the trunk cards and the BSC must
comply with the pin assignments detailed in Chapter 2 -
Installation. This chapter also explains the E1 or T1 trunk card
DIP switch, which must be set to reflect the E1 or T1 cable
characteristics.
