5.5 PDH telecommunication via C37.94 interface to
transceiver 21-216
5.5.1 Communication requirements
GUID-1BF17CA3-93F5-4661-9695-368FE7F359E2 v1
A PDH telecommunication network set-up can be done via 64 kbit/s C37.94 interface to transceiver
type 21-216.
There is a short delay in alarm time, typically 100 ms, for a communication fail in the relay, and it is
derived from the dependability of the line differential protection function. This requires a high quality
communication system as defined in Appendix
Sample specification of communication requirements.
If the telecommunication network is disturbed for more than 100 ms, an alarm will be issued.
