Product Description Connector Panel Interfaces Connector Panel Interfaces The connector panel on the rear of the chassis housing contains the following connectors and power connection terminals.
Product Description Connector Panel Interfaces External Clock Connector. An external DS3 clock connector (75-ohm unbalanced BNC) is provided for clocking the unit from an external 44.736 MHz timing source, when required. Alarm Connector. The alarm contacts are on a 4-position wiring block connector. There are contacts for a critical alarm and for a combined major/minor alarm. The contacts can be programmed to be normally open or normally closed.
Product Description Framing Modes Framing Modes Additional Functions Available in C-Bit Mode ... 2-8 DS3 Multiframe Structure ... 2-9 The Wide Bank 28 DS3 can be configured for either M23 or C-bit framing. The major difference between M23 framing and C-bit parity framing is that M23 framing uses the C-bits to indicate stuffing, while C-bit parity framing does not. With M23 framing, all three C-bits in a subframe are set to one (1) if stuffing occurs, or to zero (0) if stuffing does not occur.
Product Description Framing Modes The Path Maintenance Data Link is a 28.2 Kbps terminal-to-terminal data link embedded in the C-bits. See DS3 Path Maintenance Data Link on page 7-7. The ability to send a DS3 idle code to the network The DS3 idle code means that the DS3 is not carrying traffic DS3 Multiframe Structure The DS3 signal is partitioned into multiframes (M-frames) of 4760 bits each. The M-frames are divided into seven M-subframes, each having 680 bits.
Product Description Framing Modes X-Bits - Error Message from Far-End to Near-End The X-bits, located in the first bit position of both M-subframe 1 and M-subframe 2 (see Figure 2-2), are both set to zero (0) if a Loss-of Signal (LOS), Out-of-Frame (OOF), or Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) is detected at the far-end during any one-second interval. This signal is transmitted to the near-end for one second, then the X-bits return to their normal condition (both ones).
Product Description Framing Modes Far End Alarm (FEA) Bit The FEA bit is used for two purposes: (1) as a far-end channel to send alarm and status information from the far-end to the near-end, and (2) to initiate from the near-end, DS3 and lowspeed loopbacks at the far end terminal. A 16-bit code is transmitted serially over this one-bit channel, least-significant (right-end) bit first, to indicate one of eleven conditions. The format of the 16-bit code is: 0XXXXXX0 11111111 (where X can be a 1 or a 0).

Product Description Controller and DS3 Redundancy Electronics and Network Protection Mode The highest level of protection, electronics and network protection, allows both the Controller cards and the DS3 lines to be switched. This mode is available with two Controllers and two active DS3 lines. Switching must be enabled (arm on) and protection must be enabled (DS3 protect on).
Product Description Controller and DS3 Redundancy The Wide Bank switching performance complies with Telcordia TR-TSY-752, paragraph 8.4, subparagraph 1, which states that no more than 10 bit errors are caused by the switching operation, and also that the switching operation is accomplished within 250 ns. The threshold at which DS3 switching takes place is determined by an LCV count within a certain length of time.
Product Description Controller and DS3 Redundancy To configure network protection mode for non-revertive (one-shot) switching, set revertive ds3 off and arm on. Once a switch occurs with this configuration, switching back requires a manual switch (switch command) or a configuration change. To configure electronics protection or network protection modes for no automatic switching, set revertive ds3 off and arm off.

Product Description Low-Speed (LS) Redundancy Pulling or “hot-swapping” a card when circuit failures exist on other cards produces the following lockout behavior, depending on the card type. If a Standard card is pulled when the spare is already being used, all four circuits on the Standard card will be dropped. The spare circuits will not be affected.
Product Description Low-Speed (LS) Redundancy Maintenance Service Option (MSO) In addition to the circuit failure protection provided by Standard DS1 and E1 cards, MSO DS1 and E1 cards will automatically switch low-speed service to the spare card when the electronics are manually removed from a system. With MSO cards, the service interruption time is less than 50 milliseconds compared to 15 seconds when replacing standard cards.
Product Description Low-Speed (LS) Redundancy is replaceable by itself (see Chapter 9 for replacement instructions). The MSO Relay card contains the necessary relays to switch the traffic either to the MSO Electronics card or to the spare lowspeed card, as required. The Relay card is only replaceable when combined with the electronics card as a unit to form the MSO DS1 or E1 card. WARNING! DO NOT INSERT THE RELAY SECTION OF THE CARD BY ITSELF.
Product Description Low-Speed (LS) Redundancy Failures that Cause a Low-Speed Switchover The Wide Bank checks for the following events every 200 milliseconds, and if one or more of them occur, initiates a low-speed switchover. Transmitter Failure. A transmitter failure is declared when: 1. There is a lack of activity on the transmit clock. 2. There is a lack of activity on the transmit tip and ring outputs (either or both). This event is ignored if AMI line coding is selected. System Clock Failure.
Product Description Low-Speed (LS) Redundancy Restoring to Original Status (Revertive Switching) Because some circuit failures can look like line failures (LOS or Major LCV), the Wide Bank provides a revertive switching feature to keep spares available for use by other circuits. When a line failure occurs, the Wide Bank will move the channel to the spare circuit. If the failure remains, the problem is a line failure, so the channel is moved back to the home circuit.
Product Description Low-Speed (LS) Redundancy other cards, there will be a conflict for resources. The conflict results in any circuits previously switched to the spare low-speed card (and still present there) to be switched back to their home lowspeed cards. If the home low-speed cards are not able to maintain the circuits, the circuits will be dropped.

Product Description Tests and Loopbacks Low-Speed Loopback Modes NOTE: For details on how to run low-speed loopback tests, see Testing Low-Speed Near-End with Loop Tests on page 7-19. Low-Speed Line Loopback The low-speed line loopback loops the low-speed signal back to the low-speed interface.
Product Description Tests and Loopbacks Low-Speed Metallic Loopback The low-speed metallic loopback loops the received low-speed signal back to the low-speed transmit using a relay. This Carrier Access Corporation-unique loopback provides “point-ofentry” fault-isolation between the Wide Bank and attached DS1 or E1 equipment to detect DS1 or E1 line problems. A spare low-speed card is required to provide metallic loopbacks toward the low-speed connections.
Product Description Tests and Loopbacks Low-Speed Performance Monitoring The low-speed transceivers continuously monitor the incoming physical DS1 or E1 line quality for Excess Zeros, Loss of Signal, and Bipolar Violations.

CHAPTER 6 9Configuration In this Chapter Configuration Overview ... 6-2 Basic Configuration ... 6-2 Downloading New Software ...
Configuration Configuration Overview Configuration Overview The Wide Bank 28 DS3 Multiplexer is configured at the factory with defaults that are common in the industry. If the default configuration must be changed, or if the setup is lost, perform the following steps to set up a basic configuration. 1. Use the restore defaults command to restore the configuration to factory defaults. 2. Change each individual item, as required, to match your specific application.
Configuration Basic Configuration Connecting to the Management Port This procedure assumes that a terminal (or PC with terminal-emulation software) is connected to the RS-232 Management Port on the connector panel of the Wide Bank. The Wide Bank’s RS-232 port is a DCE port with DB9 Female connector.
Configuration Basic Configuration Logging On The Wide Bank is shipped with password protection disabled (security off). You can enable password protection to prevent unauthorized access. See Setting System Security, Users, and Login Passwords (Basic Security) on page 6-7 or Setting System Security, Users, and Login Passwords (Security Upgrade Option) on page 6-10. To log in with security off, simply press Enter key. If you are logging in via a Telnet session, login is automatic when the connection is made.
Configuration Basic Configuration Saving a Temporary Copy of Configuration Use the temp copy command to place a temporary copy of the working configuration in volatile storage, to be restored if the working copy becomes corrupted. One use for this command is when you are changing the working configuration and want to easily return to the original configuration if your changes do not work. To save a copy of the configuration: (A:Active)> temp copy All current settings have been temporarily copied to RAM.
Configuration Basic Configuration Restoring Factory Defaults The working configuration can be replaced with the original factory defaults by using the restore defaults command. Both the working configuration and the factory defaults are stored in nonvolatile storage and are retained when power is turned off. One use for the restore defaults command is to re-configure the Wide Bank when the working configuration is lost or corrupted and there is no temporary copy to restore.
Configuration Basic Configuration Setting the Time and Date Although the working configuration is retained when power is turned off, the system clock time and system date are lost.
Configuration Basic Configuration Access Levels (Basic Security) With basic security, there are three access levels available for CLI users: admin – The admin user has access to all commands and has the sole authority to grant others access to the system by adding and deleting user names and passwords. There can be only one admin user (always named "admin") within the system. rw (read/write) – An rw user has access to all commands except those for adding users, deleting users, and setting user levels.
Configuration Basic Configuration Display Current Security Status (Basic Security) (A:Active)> security security off Change the Security Status (Basic Security) (A:Active)> security on security on Add a User (Basic Security) (A:Active)> user "bill" add Successfully added new user “bill” See USER on page 8-82 for user name restrictions.
Configuration Basic Configuration Setting System Security, Users, and Login Passwords (Security Upgrade Option) If the Wide Bank is configured with the Security Upgrade option, enhanced security features are available, including an additional user access level and the ability to disable user interfaces. As with basic security (described in the previous section), each user can be assigned a user level. Passwords are required for each user.
Configuration Basic Configuration Access Levels (Security Upgrade Option) With the Security Upgrade option, there are four access levels available for CLI users: secu – The secu user has access to all commands and has the sole authority to grant others access to the system by adding and deleting user names and passwords.
Configuration Basic Configuration NOTE: When security is on and the user secu is logged in, turning security off logs off the user secu. Similarly, turning security on automatically logs in the user secu. Security integrity is provided by denying access if a user name or password is entered incorrectly. After three consecutive unsuccessful login attempts, the login prompt will not appear for 10 seconds, and an SNMP trap (cliLoginFailureTrap) is sent to the Network Management System (NMS).
Configuration Basic Configuration Display Current Security Status (Security Upgrade Option) (A:Active)> security security off Change the Security Status (Security Upgrade Option) (A:Active)> security on security on Add a User and Assign a Password (Security Upgrade Option) (A:Active)> user "bill" add New password: ******** Confirm new password: ******** New password accepted Successfully added new user “bill” See USER on page 8-82 for user name and password restrictions.

Maintenance Card Maintenance Card Maintenance The Wide Bank is equipped with one or two Controller cards for processing and high-speed connections. For Low-Speed (LS) connections the Wide Bank can have from one to seven active lowspeed cards and one spare low-speed card. These cards contain all the Wide Bank circuits, and can be removed and replaced with power on (hot-swapped). WARNING! SEE PROPER ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PROCEDURES WHEN REMOVING AND HANDLING THE LOW-SPEED AND CONTROLLER CARDS.
Maintenance Removing and Installing Faceplates Removing and Installing Faceplates DANGER! FIRE HAZARD. STANDARD UL 1950 REQUIRES THAT ALL ACCESS COVERS BE REPLACED TO PREVENT FIRES FROM SPREADING TO NEARBY EQUIPMENT. Wide Banks come either with a standard (no-fan) faceplate or with the fan faceplate option (FFO). The faceplate must be removed and re-installed when replacing a circuit card.
Maintenance Removing and Installing Faceplates 1. Remove the fan faceplate with a Phillips-head screw driver. Loosen the two captive screws on each end of the faceplate that secure the faceplate to the Wide Bank chassis. A little force may be required to disconnect the two fan power connectors. 2. When installiing the fan faceplate, use care to ensure correct alignment of the two power connectors before tightening the fastening screws at each end of the faceplate. Do not overtighten the captive screws.
Maintenance Replacing Low-Speed Cards Replacing Low-Speed Cards WARNING! SEE PROPER ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) PROCEDURES WHEN REMOVING AND HANDLING THE LOW-SPEED AND CONTROLLER CARDS. WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU WEAR A RESISTANCE-STYLE WRIST STRAP TO GROUND YOURSELF THROUGH THE EQUIPMENT CHASSIS. SEE STATIC-SENSITIVE EQUIPMENT HANDLING PROCEDURES ON page 5-3 FOR INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO USE A WRIST STRAP. Low-speed cards come in two styles: the standard card and the Maintenance Service Option (MSO) card.
Maintenance Replacing Low-Speed Cards Replacing a Standard Low-Speed Card CAUTION! STANDARD LOW-SPEED CARDS CAN BE REMOVED AND REPLACED WITH POWER ON. HOWEVER, THE FOUR CIRCUITS ON THE CARD BEING SWAPPED WILL BE DROPPED UNTIL A CARD IS INSERTED INTO THE SLOT. 1. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to loosen the two fastening screws on the front faceplate of the Wide Bank and remove the faceplate. See Figure 10-3. 2. Locate the low-speed card you want to remove.
Maintenance Replacing Low-Speed Cards Replacing an MSO Low-Speed Card The Maintenance Service Option allows hot-swapping a low-speed card without dropping the circuits carried by that card. This is accomplished by removing only the electronics section of the two-section MSO card, leaving the relay section of the MSO card fully seated and latched in the card slot, as shown in Figure 10-4.
Maintenance Replacing Low-Speed Cards CAUTION! WHEN HOT-SWAPPING AN MSO CARD, ALWAYS PULL THE WHITE EJECTOR LATCH LEVER TO EJECT THE MSO ELECTRONICS SECTION. DO NOT PULL THE RED EJECTOR LATCH LEVER BECAUSE IT WILL EJECT THE RELAY SECTION AND INTERRUPT SERVICE ON ALL CIRCUITS OF THE CARD. MSO WARNING! NEVER INSERT THE RELAY SECTION OF AN MSO CARD INTO A WIDE BANK UNLESS THE ELECTRONICS SECTION OF THE CARD IS CORRECTLY LATCHED TO IT. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY DAMAGE THE RELAY SECTION.
Maintenance Replacing Low-Speed Cards Inserting the Electronics Section of an MSO Card 1. Ensure that the replacement section is positioned correctly in the guide rails, and the white ejector latch lever is positioned to engage the roll pin on the relay section. Then carefully slide the section into the slot. 2. Press the white ejector latch inward until the connector on the electronics section mates with a matching connector on the relay section.

Alarm Reporting Overview Overview The Wide Bank reports alarms in several ways. First, there are LEDs that indicate that alarm events have occurred. Second, the alarm events that occur are entered into an event log. Third, certain SNMP traps are generated when alarms occur.
Alarm Reporting LEDs That Report Alarms LEDs That Report Alarms The information in Table 12-1 assumes that your Wide Bank 28 DS3 is fully redundant and is using the default alarm severities for Critical, Major, and Minor alarms. Some physical configurations other than fully redundant affect the way some alarms are reported.
Alarm Reporting DS3 Far-End Alarms and Control (FEAC) DS3 Far-End Alarms and Control (FEAC) Far-end alarms are events that occur at a remote location and are reported to the Wide Bank 28 DS3 over the DS3 link. This feature and the associated commands require the DS3 to be set for C-bit framing. Far-End Alarm Transmission When there is a far-end alarm condition, code words are transmitted continuously for the duration of the alarm, or for a minimum of 10 code words, whichever is longer.

Glossary Definitions 10Base-T An IEEE standard for operating Ethernet local area networks (LANs) on twisted-pair cabling using the home run method of wiring (the same as the phone company uses) and a wiring hub that contains electronics performing similar functions to a central telephone switch. The full name for the standard is IEEE 802.3 10Base-T.
Glossary Authorization Process whereby an access policy determines if an entity is permitted to perform an operation. Automatic Protection Switching APS. The ability of a network element to detect a failed working line and switch the service to a spare (protection ) line. 1+1 APS pairs a protection line with each working line. 1:n APS provides one protection line for every n working lines. Bandwidth Information-carrying capacity of a communication channel expressed in bits or bytes per second.
Glossary C-bit Errored Seconds CES. A second with one or more CCVs OR one or more Out of Frame defects OR a detected incoming AIS. This count is only for the SYNTRAN and C-bit Parity DS3 applications. This gauge is not incremented when UASs are counted. C-bit Parity Framing A DS3 frame format with overhead communications bits. Unlike M23 framing, C-bit parity framing does not require a stuffing indicator (stuffing is always present), so the C-bits are used to carry alarms, data, and status information.
Glossary Customer Premises Equipment CPE. Items of telecommunications equipment, such as key systems, PBXs, answering machines, and CSU/DSUs, which reside on the customer’s premises past the network interface. Cyclic Redundancy Check CRC. A technique for using overhead bits to detect transmission errors. Data Terminal Equipment DTE. In the EIA/TIA 232E standard specification, the RS-232 interface is connected between the DCE (Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment) and the DTE.
Glossary Exchange Carrier Standards Association ECSA. An organization that specifies telecommunications standards for ANSI. Extended Superframe ESF. A North American format for DS1 rate signals at 1.544 Mbps that extends the capability of the Superframe format to include a 4 Kbps facility data link channel by using less of the 8 Kbps overhead for synchronization. Failure A termination of the ability of an item to perform a required function. A failure is caused by the persistence of a defect.
Glossary Line Terminating Equipment LTE. Network elements such as add/drop multiplexers or digital cross-connect systems which can access, generate, and process Line Overhead. Loss of Signal LOS. The DS3 LOS defect is declared upon observing 175 ± 75 contiguous pulse positions with no pulses of either positive or negative polarity.
Glossary Packet Switching An efficient method for breaking down and handling high-volume traffic in a network. A transmission technique that segments and routes information into discrete units. Packet switching allows for efficient sharing of network resources as packets from different sources can all be sent over the same channel in the same bit stream. Parity Check An error-checking scheme which examines the number of transmitted bits in a block which hold the value one.
Glossary Slip An overflow (deletion) or underflow (repetition) of one frame of a signal in a receiving buffer. Stratum Stratum or Stratum Level refers to the accuracy of the clock source used to synchronize SONET communications systems. Accuracy is important in maintaining communications across a network. During local network failures, a backup clock source is used to maintain network timing.
Glossary Terminal Multiplexer Terminal Multiplexers provide simple add/drop multiplexing of SONET and standard DS1/ DS3 channels onto a single SONET bearer. Trap A system event that results in a message being sent to a Network Management System. Unavailable Seconds UAS. The number of seconds that an interface is unavailable. The DS3 interface is said to be unavailable from the onset of 10 contiguous PSESs, or the onset of the condition leading to a failure.
