Paradyne ENE2020-P installation instructions Line Code, Timing

Line Code

Switch 4 sets the Line Code for Ports 1 and 2 on both the ENE2020-P and the ENE2020-S. Switch 4 controls the line code of both E1 ports (Port 1 and Port 2); line code for the two ports cannot be configured independently.

Line code is the E1 mode of transmission. The two line code options outlined below fall within the International Telecommunication Union - Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) G.703 Standards for Transmission Facilities.

„High Density Binary 3 – High Density Binary 3 (HDB3) is used to accommodate the minimum ones density requirement in the European public network. HDB3 line encoding helps prevent loss of synchronization between the ENE2020 and remote E1 equipment by using bipolar violations to guarantee the presence of pulses in the E1 line.

„Alternate Mark Inversion – Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) simply alternates positive and negative pulses. Although AMI links typically encounter long strings of zeros which can potentially cause loss of synchronization between units, the ENE2020 meets the European minimum ones density requirement internally such that, even with AMI, loss of synchronization is prevented between the ENE2020 and remote E1 equipment (just as it is with HDB3).

Timing

Switch 7 sets the timing for the ENE2020-P (only). Switch 7 controls the timing of both E1 links (Port 1 and Port 2) on the ENE2020-P. The ENE2020-S determines timing for the two E1 links via communication with its partner E1 provider unit.

Timing refers to the clock source for E1 transmission links.

„Local Clock Source – Local clock source refers to timing derived from an oscillator onboard the ENE2020-P.

„Loop Clock Source – Loop clock source refers to timing derived from an intermediate device.
