23H/23H-U OLIU Quick Reference Summary 7
Transmit Functions 7
The major transmit functions of the 23H/23H-U OLIU circuit pack are as follows:
â– Selects 12 STS-1 signals from the TSI circuit packs
â– Adds SONET transport overhead
â– Byte-interleaves and scrambles the STS-1 signals to produce an STS-12
signal
â– Modulates a laser transmitter to produce an OC-12 signal.
Receive Functions 7
The major receive functions of the 23H/23H-U OLIU circuit pack are as follows:
â– Receives an OC-12 optical signal and converts an OC-12 signal to an
electrical STS-12 signal
â– Extracts STS-12 clock and retimes the received data
â– Demultiplexes the STS-12 signal into 12 STS-1 signals
â– Extracts and processes the STS-1 transport overhead
â– Processes the STS-1 pointer and frame-synchronizes the STS-1 signals
â– Processes the receive clock and provides a loop-timing clock to the TGS
circuit packs.
Control Functions 7
Control functions are as follows:
â– Protection switching for TSI circuit packs
â– Inventory information (
CLEI
code, date of manufacture, etc.).
Maintenance Signal Functions 7
The 23H/23H-U OLIU major maintenance signal functions are as follows:
â– Inserts and detects STS-1 path AIS
â– Inserts STS-1 path unequipped signal
â– Inserts and detects OC-12 line AIS
â– Inserts and detects OC-12 line FERF
â– Detects OC-12 line failures (LOS, LOF, AIS, and BER)
â– Detects OC-12 line signal degrade BER.
