64 Port
E1 GROOMER
Hi-Z Non-Intrusive
Hi-Impedance Monitoring Solution
The 64
Port E1 VCL-MegaConnect Groomer is suitable for non-intrusive
monitoring of upto 30, "live" E1 traffic links, bidirectionally
(i.e. in both transmit and receive directions through it's 60 E1
receivers) through a high impedance (Hi-Z) path. Additionally
the equipment also provides 4 E1 ports that shall connect the
aggregated time-slots which have been non-intrusively
"monitored" from the 30, "live" E1 traffic links to the test
equipment protocol analysers / test probes etc. The 64 Port E1 VCL-MegaConnect
Groomer offers
bidirectional monitoring
and
unidirectional monitoring modes
Product
Description
| The
VCL-MegaConnectTM, 64 Port E1 Groomer, occupies only a 6U high
rack-space, and is a compact 19-inch stand-alone unit. The unit
operates on a -48V DC input power-supply. An AC input adapter is
also optionally available for AC mains operation. The equipment
is provided with both, RS-232 Serial Interface for COM Port
connection and as well as a TCP / IP LAN Interface (10BaseT) for
providing equipment access through Telnet over a LAN / TCP / IP
link. The user may select and
use either of these ports for executing |
|
|
HyperTerminal text commands for
configuration etc. The access for configuration and system
management is provided through CLI (Command Line Interface) text
commands which may be executed either from a serial (COM) Port
of a PC, or through the TCP / IP 10 / 100BaseT LAN Interface |
The 10 / 100BaseT LAN
Interface allows the equipment to be connected on a TCP / IP network
for remote access for configuration and monitoring over LAN / TCP / IP
link, remotely. The system is also supplied with an easy to use
Windows (95, 98, Me, XP) Graphical User Interface that provides the
user a complete control to prepare multiple configuration "maps" and
store them. Dry contact relay alarm output is also available at rear
of the system to connect the system to external audio/visual alarm
output though a dry relay contact
Bidirectional Monitoring
In bidirectional mode
the groomer is capable of non-intrusively monitoring upto 30 "live"
E1 links and then groom the selected time-slots to the 4 E1 Ports
provided in the equipment. The 60, E1 receivers of the groomer shall
connect to the 30, E1 "live traffic" links which are to be
monitored, non-intrusively.
The Groomer is capable
of monitoring a -20dBdsx (0.3Volt Pulse) E1 signal through a Hi-Z
path, without in any way affecting or disturbing the "live" E1
traffic that is required to be monitored.
The equipment offers the
user with complete flexibility to choose and select time-slots from
each of the 30 E1 links that are being monitored, without limitation
or restrictions, through the internal TSI non-blocking switch (data
received by the equipment's 60 E1 receivers) and then aggregate the
selected time-slots to the 4 E1 ports that shall connect to the test
equipment, such as protocol analysers / test probes, billing servers
etc.
Unidirectional Monitoring
In unidirectional mode
the Groomer is capable of non-intrusively monitoring upto 60 "live"
E1 links and then groom the selected time-slots to the 4 E1 Port
provided in the equipment. The 60, E1 receivers of the Groomer shall
connect to the 60, E1 "live traffic" links which are to be
monitored, non-intrusively
