TDM Commands
tdm
Syntax tdm
Context config>port
Description This command enables the context to configure DS1/E1 parameters for a port on a channelized T1/E1
ASAP Adapter card.
TDM is a mechanism that divides the bandwidth of a stream into separate channels or timeslots by
assigning each stream a different timeslot in a set. TDM repeatedly transmits a fixed sequence of
timeslots over a single transmission channel. Each individual data stream is reassembled at the
receiving end based on the timing.
Default None
buildout
Syntax buildout short
Context config>port>tdm
Description This command specifies the line buildout (cable length) for DS1 interfaces on the T1/E1 ASAP
Adapter card.
Default short
Parameters short — sets the line buildout for length runs up to 655 ft.
ds1
Syntax [no] ds1
Context config>port>tdm
Description This command enables the context to configure digital signal level 1 (DS1) frame parameters.
T1 transmits DS1-formatted data at 1.544 Mb/s through the network.
Once a channel has been configured for DS1, all ports on the T1/E1 ASAP Adapter card can only be
configured for DS1. There cannot be a mix of DS1 and E1 channels on the same card.
The no form of this command deletes the specified DS1 channel.
Default None
