Introduction

The Octal T1/E1 Module supports up to eight ports per single slot width. It simultaneously terminates both DS1 and E1 signals on the same card, providing cost-effective A-law to Law conversion. Performance monitoring statistics and extensive diagnostics and testing capabilities can be exposed on a link basis.

Capabilities and Features

The Octal T1/E1 Module supports eight DS1 or E1 links and the associated framing. For T1 links, the framing modes are D4 and ESF. For the E1 counterpart, CRC and CAS framing modes are supported. Additional diagnostics include integral BERT and loopback diagnostics for in-network testing. ABCD signaling bits can monitor the call processing states for voice applications.

Benefits

The Octal T1/E1 offers high density T1 or E1 interface deployment with an optional N+1 sparing strategy. Remote test access is not compromised by density, enabling service providers to quickly validate service outages without having to dispatch service personnel.
