Connecting AC Mains
Make sure that the electrical installation complies with local codes. Always connect the AC plug to a wall socket with a protective ground. The maximum permissible current capability of the branch distribution circuit that supplies power to the product is 16A (20A for USA and Canada). The circuit breaker in the building installation should have high breaking capacity and must operate at short-circuit current exceeding 35A (40A for USA and Canada). Always connect the power cord first to the equipment and then to the wall socket. If a power switch is provided in the equipment, set it to the OFF position. If the power cord cannot be readily disconnected in case of emergency, make sure that a readily accessible circuit breaker or emergency switch is installed in the building installation. In cases when the power distribution system is IT type, the switch must disconnect both poles simultaneously.
Connecting DC Power
Unless otherwise specified in the manual, the DC input to the equipment is floating in reference to the ground. Any single pole can be externally grounded. Due to the high current capability of DC power systems, care should be taken when connecting the DC supply to avoid short-circuits and fire hazards. Make sure that the DC power supply is electrically isolated from any AC source and that the installation complies with the local codes.
The maximum permissible current capability of the branch distribution circuit that supplies power to the product is 16A (20A for USA and Canada). The circuit breaker in the building installation should have high breaking capacity and must operate at short-circuit current exceeding 35A (40A for USA and Canada). Before connecting the DC supply wires, ensure that power is removed from the DC circuit. Locate the circuit breaker of the panel board that services the equipment and switch it to the OFF position. When connecting the DC supply wires, first connect the ground wire to the corresponding terminal, then the positive pole and last the negative pole. Switch the circuit breaker back to the ON position. A readily accessible disconnect device that is suitably rated and approved should be incorporated in the building installation. If the DC power supply is floating, the switch must disconnect both poles simultaneously.

Glossary
Address Agent Analog Attenuation Balanced
A coded representation of the origin or destination of data. In SNMP, this refers to the managed system. A continuous wave or signal (such as human voice). Signal power loss through equipment, lines or other transmission devices. Measured in decibels. A transmission line in which voltages on the two conductors are equal in magnitude, but opposite in polarity, with respect to ground. Unit of signaling speed equivalent to the number of discrete conditions or events per second. If each signal event represents only one bit condition, baud rate equals bps (bits per second). The smallest unit of information in a binary system. Represents either a one or zero (1 or 0). A storage device. Commonly used to compensate for differences in data rates or event timing when transmitting from one device to another. Also used to remove jitter. The 53-byte basic information unit within an ATM network. The user traffic is segmented into cells at the source and reassembled at the destination. An ATM cell consists of a 5-byte ATM header and a 48-byte ATM payload, which contains the user data. A path for electrical transmission between two or more points. Also called a link, line, circuit or facility. A term for the source(s) of timing signals used in synchronous transmission. Information represented in digital form, including voice, text, facsimile and video. A measure of power in communications: the decibel in reference to one milliwatt (0 dBm = 1 milliwatt and -30 dBm = .001 milliwatt). The detection and isolation of a malfunction or mistake in a communications device, network or system. The binary (1 or 0) output of a computer or terminal. In data communications, an alternating, non-continuous (pulsating) signal.

E1 Line
A 2.048 Mbps line, common in Europe, that supports thirty-two 64 kbps channels, each of which can transmit and receive data or digitized voice. The line uses framing and signaling to achieve synchronous and reliable transmission. The most common configurations for E1 lines are E1 PRI, and unchannelized E1. Encapsulating data is a technique used by layered protocols in which a low level protocol accepts a message from a higher level protocol, then places it in the data portion of the lower-level frame. The logistics of encapsulation require that packets traveling over a physical network contain a sequence of headers. A local area network (LAN) technology which has extended into the wide area networks. Ethernet operates at many speeds, including data rates of 10 Mbps (Ethernet), 100 Mbps (Fast Ethernet), 1,000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet), 10 Gbps, 40 Gbps, and 100 Gbps. A logical grouping of information sent as a link-layer unit over a transmission medium. The terms packet, datagram, segment, and message are also used to describe logical information groupings. A circuit or device permitting transmission in two directions (sending and receiving) at the same time. An ITU standard for the physical and electrical characteristics of various digital interfaces, including those at 64 kbps and 2.048 Mbps. Gateways are points of entrance and exit from a communications network. Viewed as a physical entity, a gateway is that node that translates between two otherwise incompatible networks or network segments. Gateways perform code and protocol conversion to facilitate traffic between data highways of differing architecture. A circuit or device capable of transmitting in two directions, but not at the same time. The combined effect of resistance, inductance and capacitance on a transmitted signal. Impedance varies at different frequencies. A shared boundary, defined by common physical interconnection characteristics, signal characteristics, and meanings of exchanged signals. Also known as an Internet address. A unique string of numbers that identifies a computer or device on a TCP/IP network. The format of an IP address is a 32-bit numeric address written as four numbers from 0 to 255, separated by periods (for example, 1.0.255.123). The deviation of a transmission signal in time or phase. It can introduce errors and loss of synchronization in high speed synchronous communications.

Jitter
Laser
A device that transmits an extremely narrow and coherent beam of electromagnetic energy in the visible light spectrum. Used as a light source for fiber optic transmission (generally more expensive, shorter lived, single mode only, for greater distances than LED). A type of diagnostic test in which the transmitted signal is returned to the sending device after passing through all or part of a communications link or network. An application that receives Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) information from an agent. An agent and manager share a database of information, called the Management Information Base (MIB). An agent can use a message called a traps-PDU to send unsolicited information to the manager. A manager that uses the RADview MIB can query the RAD device, set parameters, sound alarms when certain conditions appear, and perform other administrative tasks. A fiber with a large core diameter; 50-200 microns compared with the wavelength of light. It therefore propagates more than one mode. With multimode fiber, light traverses multiple paths, some longer than others. This leads to dispersion, which reduces optical range. At one end of a communications link, a device that combines several lower speed transmission channels into a single high speed channel. A multiplexer at the other end reverses the process. Sometimes called a mux. See Bit Interleaving/Multiplexing. (1) An interconnected group of nodes. (2) A series of points, nodes, or stations connected by communications channels; the collection of equipment through which connections are made between data stations. Parameters are often called arguments, and the two words are used interchangeably. However, some computer languages such as C define argument to mean actual parameter (i.e., the value), and parameter to mean formal parameter. In RAD CLI, parameter means formal parameter, not value. Layer 1 of the OSI model. The layer concerned with electrical, mechanical, and handshaking procedures over the interface connecting a device to the transmission medium. The physical interface to a computer or multiplexer, for connection of terminals and modems. One or more characters in a command line interface to indicate that the computer is ready to accept typed input. A formal set of conventions governing the formatting and relative timing of message exchange between two communicating systems. The process of selecting the most efficient circuit path for a message.

Single Mode
Describing an optical wave-guide or fiber that is designed to propagate light of only a single wavelength (typically 5-10 microns in diameter). See Synchronous Transmission. A digital transmission link with a capacity of 1.544 Mbps used in North America. Typically channelized into 24 DS0s, each capable of carrying a single voice conversation or data stream. Uses two pairs of twisted pair wires. The virtual terminal protocol in the Internet suite of protocols. It lets users on one host access another host and work as terminal users of that remote host. Instead of dialing into the computer, the user connects to it over the Internet using Telnet. When issuing a Telnet session, it connects to the Telnet host and logs in. The connection enables the user to work with the remote machine as though a terminal was connected to it.

Functional Description
E1 Transceivers
The Optimux-108L E1 transceivers enable the transmission and reception of tributary signals. They convert the analog signals coming from the E1 line into digital signals that can be handled by the field-programmable gate array (FPGA) and convert the digital signals coming from the FPGA into required level and shape. Line transformers isolate the transceivers from the E1 line and perform impedance matching to the line.
Table 1-1 and Table 1-2 provide information on the characteristics of the optical
subsystem, including the maximum range over typical fiber optic cable for a product without and with user Ethernet port respectively.

Functional Description
Chapter 1 Introduction
The fiber optic uplink interface is fixed and cannot be replaced in the field. All fiber optic interface options offer high performance and have a wide dynamic range.
Note
The SF3 option uses an SC/APC connector. The FO cable connected to it must therefore be of the same type.
Ethernet Transceivers
The Optimux-108L Ethernet transceiver enables operation of the Optimux-108L Ethernet user and management ports. The Ethernet user port operates at a rate of 10/100 Mbps full duplex, autonegotiation enable/disable. It supports auto cross over cable detection and fault propagation control options. The Ethernet management port operates at a rate of 10/100 Mbps full/half duplex, autonegotiation enable/disable and supports the auto cross over cable detection.
DIP Switch
In Optimux-108L/BM, the DIP switch is used for diagnostics and control over the user Ethernet port parameters. Switch positions provide status indications of the Optimux-108L user port and the loops performed by the unit. The DIP switch is located on the rear panel and is activated only during a point-topoint connection between a pair of Optimux-108L/BM units. If Optimux-108L/BM is connected to a remote LRS-102/ OP-108C card or a fully managed Optimux-108L or Optimux-108 product, rear panel switches of the local unit are inactive. For more information on activation of the DIP switches, their positions and uses, see Chapter 4.
Timing
The uplink interface operates in internal timing mode. The clock of each E1 channel is independent and transferred transparently.

Chapter 3 Operation
Optimux-108L supports several management information bases (MIBs). A MIB (Management Information Base) is a database of managed objects. The MIB contains the data regarding the network elements being controlled and monitored. Each characteristic of the element to manage is defined as an object in the MIB. The MIB is a hierarchical tree structure that acts as the repository for defined objects. Each object has an object name, a type, syntax, an access code (read-write, read-only, not-accessible, and write-only) and a status (mandatory, optional, obsolete). Optimux-108L supports appropriate groups (tables) of MIB II (SNMP standard MIB), and the RAD Private MIB as follows:
MIB RFC3418 RFC2863 RFC3593 RFC3895 RAD Private MIB Notes MIB-II MIB-II MIB-II Partially supported Partially supported radGen optimux Tables IANAiftype if PreHist-TC dsx1ConfigTable physicalConnectorTable mngTrapIPTable agnTrapMask (object) agnLed (object) OptMxConfigTable
Additional MIB information can be obtained from your local Authorized Business Partner. For the trap list, see Chapter 5.

Testing Optimux-108L/BM
Optimux-108L/BM has comprehensive test and diagnostics capabilities that include local and remote loopbacks on the uplink interface and on each E1 tributary link. Diagnostic loopbacks are configured using the DIP switch located on the Optimux-108L/BM rear panel. The following should be noted with respect to the local and remote loops on Optimux-108L/BM: If a loop is performed by a remote unit, the local unit cannot perform any loop using its local switches until the remote loop is terminated. If a loop is performed on a local unit using its local switches, the remote unit will not be able to perform any loop until the loop on the local unit is terminated.
Note
Optimux-108L/BM does not have a TST LED or other capability to view the loop status. When a loop is performed on a local or remote unit, the corresponding yellow LED (AIS) blinks. For example, if a remote loop is performed on E1 channels 1 and 3, the AIS LEDs of both channels are blinking.
The available loopback functions are described below in this chapter.
Running Loopbacks
Optimux-108L/BM diagnostics capabilities include local and remote loopbacks on each E1 tributary link and Uplink. The loopbacks can be sent by the corresponding LRS-102/OP-108C card, a fully-managed Optimux-108L and an Optimux-108 or generated using the DIP switch of the local or remote Optimux-108L/BM unit. Table 5-11 lists the types of loopbacks available.

Switch
The Optimux-108L/BM DIP switch is used for performing diagnostic procedures and configuring the USER-ETH port. Switch positions indicate the type of loop performed by Optimux-108L/BM at a given time.

E1 Loop
ON
Loop is performed on E1 channels 1-4, respectively. Loop type (remote or local) is determined by switch number 6.
No loop on E1 channels 1-4, respectively. Loop is performed on the Uplink. Loop type (remote or local) is determined by switch number 6.
OFF 6 Loop Type ON OFF 7 Fault Propagation Relevant only when USER-ETH port exist ON
No loop on Uplink RLB loop LLB loop Fault propagation is enabled. When a signal or frame loss is detected on the uplink, the USER-ETH port is shut down on both local and remote units.

6-3
New software releases are distributed as an *.img file, which is downloaded to the local Optimux-108L using the TFTP protocol. Upon downloading, the new software release becomes active, the former active software turns into backup, and the former backup is erased. If a failure occurs during downloading or decompression, the new version is erased from the flash and the backup version becomes active. In this case, only one version is left stored in the flash memory. If the active software becomes corrupted, you can replace it with its backup. This procedure is used to replace the current software version with the new software release (OP-108L.img).

To prepare the AD plug and connect it to the DC power supply cable: 1. Loosen the cover screw on the bottom of the AD plug to open it (see Figure 3). 2. Run your DC power supply cable through the removable cable guard and through the open cable clamp. 3. Place each DC wire lead into the appropriate AD plug wire terminal according to the voltage polarity mapping shown. Afterwards, tighten the terminal screws closely. 4. Fit the cable guard in its slot and then close the clamp over the cable. Tighten the clamp screws to secure the cable. 5. Reassemble the two halves of the AD plug and tighten the cover screw. 6. Connect the assembled power supply cable to the unit.
Note: You have to flip over the non-90-degree AD plug type by 180 degrees to insert it into the unit. After inserting it, verify that the blue (negative) wire is connected to the POWER and the brown (positive) wire is connected to the RETURN.
Reversing the wire voltage polarity will not cause damage to the unit, but the internal protection fuse will not function.
Warning
Always connect a ground wire to the AD plugs chassis (frame) ground terminal. Connecting the unit without a protective ground, or interrupting the grounding (for example, by using an extension power cord without a grounding conductor) can damage the unit or the equipment connected to it! The AD adapter is not intended for field wiring.
