1-4 Overview IPmux-8/16 Ver. 6.00
IPmux-8/16 maintains synchronization between TDM devices by deploying
advanced clock distribution mechanisms. The clocking options are: internal,
loopback, adaptive, and external (for IPmux-16).
IPmux-8/16 complies with the TDMoIP protocol.
Management
IPmux-8/16 can be managed via a local terminal, Telnet, or via RADview, RAD’s
Network Management system. IPmux-8/16 has a DB-9 port for the local terminal
connection for monitoring and control. Software upload/download can be
performed via the local terminal, using the XMODEM protocol.
E1 Modules
The E1 modules comply with G.703, G.704, and G.823 standards. E1 framers
comply with G.704. The E1 modules support unframed, framed and multiframed
operation with or without CRC-4. The E1 modules support long haul and short
haul input signals and can be monitored for alarms and error statistics.
T1 Modules
The T1 modules comply with ANSI T1.403, G.703, and G.704 standards. T1 jitter
performance is according to G.824 and TR-62411. The T1 modules support
unframed, SF, ESF and Robbed Bit signaling. The T1 modules support long haul
and short haul input/output signals and can be monitored for alarms and error
statistics. FDL and transmit performance monitoring for T1/ESF are also supported.
E3 Modules
E3 modules (only for IPmux-16) comply with G.703 and G.823 standards. The E3
TDMoIP service is for full E3 and is fully transparent to E3 framing (framers in
passthrough mode).
T3 Modules
T3 modules (only for IPmux-16) comply with ANSI T1.102 and Bellcore
TR-NWT-000499 standards. The T3 TDMoIP service is for full T3 and is fully
transparent to T3 framing (framers in passthrough mode).
CT3 Modules
Channelized T3 (CT3) modules (only for IPmux-16) comply with the following
standards:
• Telcordia GR-253, GR-499
• ANSI T1.102, T1.404
• ITU-T G.703, G.755, G.824, G.151
• AT&T TR54014
The main purpose of CT3 modules are to convert the T3 TDM service signals into
28 unframed T1s and assign each of them to a TDMoIP bundle to be sent over
Ethernet/IP/MPLS networks.
