A.17 FRM220-Eoe1 Ethernet over E1 Converter 
The FRM220A-Eoe1 is a single port G.703/704 Fractional E1 DSU/CSU card with built-in HDLC Bridge for the 
FRM220/220A Series Platform Media Converter Rack. The converter supports Unframed, PCM31, and PCM30 
framing modes. The clock source may be selected internally or recovered from received E1 signal. The Ethernet 
port utilizes a single RJ-45 connector. One single model supports either unbalanced 75 ohm with two BNC 
connectors or balanced 120 ohm with one RJ-45 connector. When the FRM220A-Eoe1 card is placed in the 
FRM220 rack with SNMP management, the management can view the converter card's status, type, version, 
Ethernet link status and alarms. The card can be configured to enable or disable the port, reset the card, set 
clocking, frame mode and provide analog diagnostic loopbacks. A unique feature of the FRM220A-Eoe1 is the use 
of a common card design which may either be inserted in the FRM220-CH01M single slot chassis as a stand-alone 
modem or as a card when placed in the FRM220-CH20 In-band managed rack.
