Chapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Overview RIC-E1 is an interface converter. It converts unframed HDB3 or AMI data of ITU G.703 E1 balanced or unbalanced interface into an interchangeable DTE interface module. RIC-E1 operates at 2048 kbps. It extracts data and the clock from the G.703 interface via a jitter attenuator to meet ITU G.823 requirements. RIC-E1 acts as a line transceiver. It provides protection from over-voltage and over-current stress caused by lightning, power crosses and other noise sources.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 1 Introduction Application RIC-E1 is typically used to connect between a G.703 network and a DTE. The DTE can be a multiplexer, a bridge, a router etc. Figure 1-1 illustrates a typical RIC-E1 application. Network G.703 V.35 RIC-E1 DTE Figure 1-1.

RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 2 Installation and Setup Selecting the Impedance When RIC-E1 uses the balanced interface: • Terminate the impedance of G.703 link to 120Ω. • Use only the RJ-45 connector to transmit full duplex data to the G.703 network over UTP or STP cable. When RIC-E1 uses the unbalanced interface: • Terminate the impedance of G.703 link to 75Ω. • Use only the coaxial BNC connectors to transmit to the G.703 network via two coaxial cables.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 2 Installation and Setup Connecting the DTE RIC-E1 supports various types of data channel interfaces. Equipment with V.35, X.21, RS-530 and Ethernet interfaces can be connected directly to the RIC-E1 DTE port.

Chapter 3 Operation This chapter describes how to operate RIC-E1. Installation procedures explained in Chapter 2 must be completed and checked before attempting to operate RIC-E1. 3.1 Front Panel Indicators Figure 3-1 shows the RIC-E1 front panel. The front panel indicators are described in Table 3-1. Figure 3-1. RIC-E1 Front Panel Table 3-1.
Chapter 3 Operation RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual 3.2 Operating Instructions Turning On RIC-E1 starts operating as soon as AC or DC power is connected. Always connect the power cable to the RIC-E1 power connector first and then to the mains outlet. The PWR LED lights when power is connected. Operating RIC-E1 RIC-E1 operates entirely unattended except when performing system tests. Turning Off To turn RIC-E1 off, disconnect the power cable from the mains outlet.
Chapter 4 Troubleshooting and Diagnostics 4.1 Performing Local Analog Loopback RIC-E1 supports activation of a V.54 diagnostic (loop 3) local loopback. This loopback checks the communication and connection between RIC-E1 and the attached DTE, as shown in Figure 4-1. When RIC-E1 performs a local loopback, the data received from the local transmitter is both transmitted on the line and looped back to the local receiver at the digital level. This checks the operation of all local digital circuitry.
Chapter 4 Troubleshooting and Diagnostics RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual To activate the local analog loopback from the standalone RIC-E1: 1. Open the RIC-E1 case, as described in Chapter 2. 2. Set the JP11 jumper to LOC. The analog loopback is activated and the TST indicator on the front panel turns on. To activate the local analog loopback from RIC-E1/R: • Press the ANA pushbutton on the RIC-E1/R front panel. Make sure that the PNL SW jumper (JP5) on the RIC-E1/R board is set to EN.
Chapter 5 RIC-E1/R Card This chapter describes the RIC-E1/R card version, designed for installation in the ASM-MN-214 card cage. The chapter contains the following sections: • The ASM-MN-214 card cage • The RIC-E1/R card version • Power supply to RIC-E1/R card • Installing the RIC-E1/R card. 5.1 ASM-MN-214 Card Cage The ASM-MN-214 card cage contains one or two power supplies and up to 14 plug-in cards.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Chapter 5 RIC-E1/R Card RIC-E1/R with one of the Ethernet interfaces (IR-ETH, IR-ETH/QN or IR-IP) uses a CIA/ETH interface adapter, which converts one DB-25 connector to an RJ-45 connector.

Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module D.1 Introduction IR-IP is a high-performance miniature IP router based on RAD's unique IP router chip, the ChipRouter. IR-IP works by taking each Ethernet frame from the LAN and determining whether the IP packet is destined for the IP net on the Ethernet LAN. If not, IR-IP forwards the packet to the WAN (E1) link. IP packets received from the WAN link are automatically forwarded to the LAN if the IP net matches.

Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Erasing user configuration Resetting of various subsystems Display of error log Ping utility, for checking IP connectivity. The management subsystem of the IR-IP interface module is a separate, independent entity. The communication with the IR-IP management subsystem is made through the local LAN interface connector of the IR-IP module, designated 10BASE-T, using the Telnet protocol.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module Rescue Configuration In case you have forgotten the IP address or the Telnet password, you will generally not be able to view or modify the IR-IP configuration. The Rescue feature allows you to overcome this problem. To allow the IR-IP configuration: 1. Remove RIC-E1/R from the chassis. 2. Set section 6 of the DIP switch to ON. 3. Insert RIC-E1/R back into the chassis.
Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Connecting the Telnet Host Before starting the management and configuration activities, it is necessary to establish IP communication between your Telnet host and the IR-IP interface module. For this purpose, it is necessary to provide a communication path. Because of the method used to assign an IP address to IR-IP Ethernet port, it is recommended to connect the Telnet host directly to the IP router 10BASE-T connector.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module The IP address is actually retrieved from the ARP frames sent during pinging to locate the ping destination, not from the ping frames. To ensure that the process is correctly performed, it is recommended to check the contents of the ARP table before starting the ping utility, to make sure that it does not contain the address to be assigned to the IP router LAN interface.
Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual After changing the destination IP address of the Telnet host, it is recommended to turn RIC-E1 off for a few seconds and then back on, before continuing the configuration of the IP router in accordance with the Quick Setup Menu section below. At this time, in Step 2 the ERR indicator turns off after the 15-second interval.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module D.6 IR-IP Management Utility General Operating Procedures The IR-IP interface module is managed via a simple, menu-driven utility that uses a basic terminal user interface. A typical screen is shown in Figure D-6. As seen in Figure D-6, each screen has a header that identifies the device being configured and its logical name, assigned by the user, followed by the running software revision and date.

This is the address to which nodes connected to the local LAN send packets addressed to the WAN. LAN IP Mask Used to enter the IP subnet mask. The IP router supports a maximum of 254 hosts on the LAN, therefore you must use Class C subnet masks.
RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix D IR-IP Interface Module Operation with Default Gateway You can instruct IR-IP to send packets with destinations not located on the local LAN to a specific router, which is called the default gateway. The default gateway must be connected to the local LAN. Note To use this option, enter the IP address of another router attached to the local LAN in the Default Gateway field.

RIC-E1 Installation and Operation Manual Appendix E IR-X.21B Interface Module E.2 Selecting the IR-X.21B Timing IR-X.21B interface module supports two clock modes: • EXT (external) • INT/LBT (internal/receive). EXT JP2 INT/LBT You must set the IR-X.21B clock to match the timing you have selected for RIC-E1. The clock settings are made via the JP2 jumper located on the IR-X.21B board, as shown in Figure E-3. Figure E-3. IR-X.

EXT Timing Mode INT/LBT Clock Mode The INT/LBT clock mode is used in applications where the IR-X.21B side uses the clock signal from the E1 link. This mode is used mainly when the attached equipment has an X.21 interface, but no ability to produce clock signals.
