FRSM-2T3E3 Specifications
FRSM-2T3E3 T3 Line
The T3 line characteristics appear in Table A-13.
T3 Framer Level
For the framing characteristics of T3 operation, the FRSM-2T3E3:
• Supports C-bit parity and M13 DS3 format.
• Frames to a DS3 signal with a maximum average reframe time that meets the requirements set by
TR-TSY-000009 and GR-499-CORE.
• Detects the alarm indication signal (AIS) in milliseconds in the presence of a 10
-3
bit error rate.
• When in-frame, indicates M-bit or F-bit framing errors as well as P-bit errors. In C-bit parity mode,
it also indicates both C-bit parity errors and far end block errors.
