Signaling Mode 
10
Loop start signaling with fast forward disconnect is provided with the channel units 
used in the 
SLC
 Series 5 and 
SLC
-2000 systems with the 
SLC
-2000 MSDT 
feature. 
Digital Data Performance 
10
The AUA52B OCU (office channel unit) dataport is designed to provide end links 
in DDS. These end links have certain features as follows: 
■
One 4-wire circuit per plug-in pair. 
■
Data rate — 2.4, 4.8, 9.6, 19.2, 56, or 64 kb/s. 
■
Error correction. A digital line bit error rate of 10
-3
 is improved to 10
-8
 for any 
data rate without reducing the channel capacity of the bank. 
■
Zero Code Allowed option. Allows an all-zero byte to be transmitted toward 
the digital line (which must be optioned for B8ZS zero code suppression). 
■
Secondary channel. An option which permits a feature of DDS that 
provides the customer with a low-speed telemetry channel supplementing 
the primary data channel at any data rate. (See RL83-01-163.) 
Operations Interfaces 
10
This section presents the operation interfaces that are required to support 
technician access to the system and allow alarms and status information 
generated by the system to be reported. The local operations interfaces include 
the craft interface terminal (CIT) interface, the user panel, and the equipment 
indicators. The DDM-2000 FiberReach Multiplexer supports a direct serial TBOS 
interface
* 
and user-definable miscellaneous discretes. Remote office alarms
*
, 
parallel telemetry
*
, and TL1/X.25 interfaces are provided by the host multiplexer.  
Craft Interface Terminal 
10
The system provides an EIA-232-D compatible front access CIT interface 
configured as data communications equipment (DCE). The CIT interface provides 
data rates of 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, and 19,200 baud.   
The CIT interface operates full duplex using one start bit, eight data bits, and one 
stop bit. Table 10-24 describes the pins supported on the CIT interfaces.
* This is not applicable for users of Release 3.0 and later due to the introduction of Target ID 
Address Resolution Protocol (TARP) for Operations Interworking (OI).
