Power Circuitry
7
The BBG4/BBG4B DS3 circuit pack receives two sources of
−
48 volts that are in
turn diode ORed, fused, and filtered before conversion to +5 volts to power the
rest of the circuit pack. A failure of the fuse or converter causes the red FAULT
LED to light.
BBG4/BBG4B DS3 Quick Reference Summary

Transmit Functions
7
The BBG4/BBG4B DS3 transmit functions are as follows:
â–
Receives a B3ZS-encoded DS3 signal from a DSX-3
â–
Recovers DS3 and NRZ data
â–
Optionally checks and/or corrects P-bit parity errors
â–
Synchronizes the data signal to STS-1 signal rate
â–
Inserts STS-1 path overhead
â–
Provides the STS-1 signal to the OLIU circuit packs.
Receive Functions
7
The following receive functions are performed by the BBG4/BBG4B DS3 circuit
pack:
â–
Desynchronizes the incoming STS-1 signal
â–
Terminates the STS-1 path
â–
Optionally checks and/or corrects P-bit parity errors
â–
B3ZS encodes the outgoing DS3 signal
â–
Pre-equalizes the DS3 signal (with LBO) and transmits it to a DSX-3.
Control Functions
7
The major control functions are as follows:
â–
Protection switching for BBG4/BBG4B DS3 circuit packs
â–
STS-1 path overhead processing
â–
Internal fault detection
â–
