DS1PM Low-Speed (BBF3/BBF3B)

Electrical Specification
The DS1PM low-speed interface transmits and receives a standard
electrical DS1 signal as specified in ANSI T1.102-1993, Section 2 (1.544
Mb/s nominal rate, DSX-1 interconnect specification). Line coding is
provisionable to AMI with or without B8ZS. Line buildout is provisionable
as follows:
— 613C (22 gauge): 30 to 655 ft.
— 1249-C (26 gauge): 30 to 450 ft.
â–
Format Specification
The DS1PM low-speed interface can be provisioned for the following DS1
formats: clear channel (default), superframe (SF) as specified in ANSI
T1.403-1989, or extended superframe (ESF) as specified in ANSI T1.403-
1989. In the case of SF or ESF format selections, DS1 performance
information is collected by monitoring the associated DS1 framing format.
â–
Alarm Thresholding
The following parameters are monitored at the DS1PM interface:
— Loss of signal (LOS)
— Line coding violations (CV-L).
The alarm level for each of the monitored parameters can be provisioned to
CR, MJ, MN, or status. B8ZS and AMI coding violation failure thresholds
are user settable to 10
-3
, 10
-6
, 10

BER.

Loopback
— Quad DS1 facility loopback (BBF3)
— Single DS1 facility loopback (BBF3B) (Release 3.0 and later).

Performance Monitoring (See Table 10-3 and Table 10-23.)
Near-End DS1 Path Parameters:
— Errored Seconds (ES)
— Severely Errored Second (SES)
— Unavailable Seconds (UAS)
— SF or ESF framed signals incoming to the DSX-1
— CV-P Coding Violations (Release 3.0 and later)
— CV-PFE Coding Violations (Release 3.0 and later).
