• Out-of-band, from a management station, connected directly to the product,
using the I2C protocol.

management system is used for remote device configuration and
maintenance. It is embedded into MiTOP-E1/T1 and provided at no extra cost.
The management application can be run from any standard Web browser.
Fault Propagation

100BaseFx port, and is visually indicated by the LOS LED (red). This in turn
automatically turns off the LAN link. Fault propagation can be enabled or
disabled.

External and internal loopbacks can be used to check TDM link connectivity.
Alarms detected during operation are stored in a buffer holding up to 100 events.

An optional configuration adapter is available for connecting MiTOP-E1/T1 to a PC
via a USB 2.0 port.
The configuration adapter is used for the preliminary configuration of the
gateways or software download to the units.
