DAC 3xE3/DS3M
A DAC 3xE3/DS3M may be configured for:
• 3xE3/DS3 trib access.
• An E13 or M13 multiplexer to multiplex 1x/2x E3 or 1/2x DS3 customer
interfaces to/from an E1 or DS1 backplane.
• Transparent (unframed) E3 operation to support 1/2x34 Mbps interfaces.
Operational functions supported include:
• E3 or DS3 transport. Supports one, two or three E3 or DS3 tribs on a backplane
bus setting of E3 or DS3 respectively.
• E13 multiplexer, where one or maximum two E3 tributaries (Tx/Rx 1 and Tx/
Rx 2) are multiplexed to an E1 backplane bus, each as 16xE1, in accordance
with G.703, G.742 and G.751. Operation is compatible with industry standard
E13 multiplexers, meaning that at the E3 destination a 3rd party E13
multiplexer can be used. Allows side-by-side transport with other E1 traffic
over a 9500 MXC link.
