signal provided by the HS-RN channel interface. This timing mode is suitable
for tail-end applications.
Configuration and Management
All the module operating parameters are controlled by means of the Megaplex
system management. The flexible timeslot routing capabilities of the Megaplex
systems enable the user to select the timeslots assigned to HS-RN channels on
the E1/T1/SDH/SONET uplinks, in order to route the bit stream generated by the
multiplexing process described above in each local channel.
Each main link allocation unit generated by an HS-RN module can be
independently routed to any other compatible module installed in the remote
Megaplex unit, configured for the same combination of data rates. Moreover, the
HS-RN modules support split timeslot allocation.
Diagnostics
The HS-RN modules support self-diagnostics upon power-up, as well as powerful
testing capabilities controlled by means of the system management functions.
The test and loopback functions, that can be individually activated by the system
management functions for each module channel, include:
• Local digital loopback.
• Remote digital loopback.
