E3,
2/34 Mbps PDH Multiplexer
Product DescriptionProduct Brochure

Technical Specifications
Orion Telecom Networks Inc. offers VCL
E3-2/34Mbps, PDH Multiplexer is a third order skip multiplexer /
demultiplexer unit, based on PDH (Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy)
technology. It multiplexes sixteen 2.048Mbps (hereafter referred to as
2Mbps) E1 tributaries into |
 |
a single
34.368Mbps (hereafter referred to as 34Mbps) E3 tributary. The
multiplexer / demultiplexer also does the reverse processing i.e.
demultiplexing a received 34Mbps stream into sixteen 2Mbps E1
tributaries. |
VCL-2/34 Mbps Multiplexer system consists of
two VCL-2/34 Mbps terminals one each at the local and remote ends, connected through a
34Mbps stream, providing end to end services for sixteen, 2Mbps streams. Both local and
remote terminals can be monitored and controlled by a Network Management System (NMS)
connected to the local terminal.

EXTERNAL INTERFACES
VCL-E3 unit provides the following
interfaces to the external world:
- 16, primary rate, 2Mbps, 120 W balanced interface
- 1, third order, 34Mbps, 75 W unbalanced interface
- -48V input for VCL-2/34 on-board power supply
- RS232 interface for connection to Network Management System,
used for configuration and monitoring of the VCL-2/34 multiplexer.
- 2 alarm extensions for visual and audible alarms.

The front panel LEDs
provide the following indications:
L1 - Negative 48V input present
L2- Positive 5V present
L3- Negative 5V present
L4- Processor healthy
L5- Processor failed
L6- Loss of signal at 34Mbps |
L7- Loss of frame alignment at 34Mbps
L8- Remote Alarm at 34Mbps
L9- AIS at 34Mbps
L10- Excessive Error Rate at 34Mbps
L11- Loss of signal at 2Mbps
L12- Prompt Maintenance Alarm |
PROGRAMMING AND MONITORING
VCL-2/34 Mbps Multiplexer offers programming
via an RS232 port for control and monitoring of the terminals. Both local and remote
multiplexer can be monitored and controlled using a PC loaded with the NMS software
connected to the local terminal.
