1-Port Channelized E3
MIM
The main functions of the 1-port channelized E3 module include:
■ In E3 mode, the module can transmit, receive and process one channel of E3
fast traffic, as well as access E3 traffic.
■ In CE3 mode, the module can provide the subscribers with the low-speed
accessing service at Nx64kbps, with N smaller than or equal to 128.
Note: E3 represents the tertiary group rate of E system in the TDM system, that is,
34.368Mbps. An E3 channel can be channelized into 16 E1 channels through the
demultiplexing processes of E23 and E12, with each E1 channel supporting both
the E1 and CE1 operating modes. E23 indicates either E2-to-E3 multiplex or
E3-to-E2 demultiplex, and E12 indicates E1-to-E2 multiplex or E2-to-E1
demultiplex. E23 and E12 discussed here represent the demultiplex process.
Router 5000 series routers support the 1-port channelized E3 module.
