Configuring External Channelized T3 Interface
Path: Main > Configuration > Physical Layer Configuration > Slot # 3/4 > CT3
EXT.
To configure external channelized T3:
1. Follow the path above to access the CT3 Ext. Layer Configuration menu
(
Figure 4-12).
2. From the CT3 Ext. Layer Configuration menu, configure the following:
Channel Status
Enable (CT3 link is enabled)
Disable (CT3 link is disabled)
Line Type (T3 framing mode)
C_BIT (C_bit Parity)
M13 (M13 framing)
Transmit Clock Source
Loopback (IPmux-8/16 is locked on the T3 clock generated by the
adjacent TDM device)
Internal (IPmux-8/16 generates the T3 clock towards the adjacent TDM
device)
The T3 clock is not propagated over the IP/Ethernet/MPLS to the remote
IPmux-16 but it is terminated by IPmux-16 at each end. Therefore the T3 clock
should be only synchronized between the T3 device and IPmux-16.
Loopback State (Controls activation of diagnostic loopbacks, see Diagnostic
Loopbacks in Chapter 6 for detailed loopback function explanation)
Internal (Internal loopback is activated)
External (External loopback is activated)
Disable (All loopbacks are deactivated)
Uplink fail Alarm Behavior (Notification sent to the T1s if Ethernet link fails)
Cond (Conditioning code notification. The code pattern is selected via
Cond. Data Pattern parameter.)
AIS (alarm indication signal).
