3.5 Configuring Physical Layer Parameters of SHDSL
Lines
The SHDSL physical layer parameters include two groups:
• SHDSL line parameters, which determine the transmission performance
provided by the module ports
• PCS parameters, which determine the Ethernet (packet) physical layer
transmission capabilities over SHDSL lines.
Configuring SHDSL Line Parameters
ASMi-54C has 8 independent SHDSL ports, supported by means of two internal
SHDSL processing subsystems (one subsystem handles ports 1 to 4, and the
other – ports 5 to 8). Each port requires a 2-wire line.
An ASMi-54 standalone unit supports the connection of up to four SHDSL lines,
which must always be in the same group: either 1 to 4, or 5 to 8.
In each group, ports can be configured to operate separately (2 wires mode), or
can be bonded together in groups of two ports (4 wires mode), or 4 (8 wires
mode).
Since ports can be bonded together to provide a single transmission line, the
term line is used, instead of ports, on the supervision terminal screens.
³ To configure the physical layer parameters for the ASMi-54C SHDSL ports:
1. Navigate to the Configuration > Physical layer > I/O screen, and then select
the I/O slot of the desired ASMi-54C module.
2. Select the SHDSL option.
3. Select the Line option.
You will see the configuration screen for the first SHDSL line (the line
with the lowest index number). Scroll using F and B to reach the desired
port, or use the Line field to enter manually the desired port number, in
the range of 1 to 8.
Alternatively, if you will use the 2-Wires option, first preconfigure all the
lines with the same basic parameters by selecting All Lines, and then
sequentially select each line and change its parameters as required.
