features:
T1/E1 Mode T1
Receive Equalizer Gain Limit (EGL) -30 dB (Limited Long Haul)
Line Encoding AMI (Passive Mode)
Transmit LIU Waveshape (Build-out) DSX-1 (0 to 133 ft) 0 dB CSU
Receive LIU Termination Receive Side 100 ohms Enabled
Transmit Data Source Standard Data
Jitter Attenuator Select Place Jitter Attenuator on TX Side

The iView

management software can be used to change some of the iMcV-T1/E1/J1
Repeater features after installing the modules in the chassis. Refer to the iView
2
online help for more information.
Passive Mode
It is recommended that the default Passive mode configuration is used for most
typical applications. Passive mode allows the fiber segment to pass data unchanged
between the T1/E1 segments independent of the actual line coding (AMI, B8ZS, or
HDB3). All errors and fault conditions from one T1/E1 end will pass through the fiber
to the other end as if there were one long T1/E1 connection.
Prerequisites
Before installing the iMcV-T1/E1/J1 Repeater modules, perform the following:
• Make sure the modules are correct for the fiber type and distance requirements.
• Make sure that T1 UTP lines DO NOT use simplex power (no wet lines).
• Before installing the iMcV-T1/E1/J1 Repeater modules, verify the DIP Switches
are configured for the feature wanted.
• Make sure to deploy the iMcV-T1/E1/J1 Repeater modules in pairs.
• Make sure the Remote Chassis is not managed.
