RocketLink-G Plug ‘n’ Play

The RocketLink-G Plug ‘n’ Play feature allows ISPs, carriers and PTTs to quickly upgrade the link speed for a customer without requiring a visit to re-conﬁgure the Customer Premise (CP) Model 3088/I. This feature also allows service providers to set up all of the conﬁgurations at the Central Ofﬁce (via the ForeFront AIS system) before installing the stand alone units at the customer site. This saves time doing on-site conﬁguration.

Note RocketLink-G Plug ‘n’ Play is only available when using a ForeFront Model 3096RC as the CO unit.

The RocketLink-G Plug ‘n’ Play feature allows the user to conﬁgure the DTE rate of the CP unit (Remote) via the ForeFront Model 3096RC at the Central Ofﬁce (Central). The stand alone unit at the Customer Premise (CP) site will automatically conﬁgure itself to the DTE rate (Bandwidth Allocation) deﬁned at the Model 3096RC. Other conﬁguration parameters remain in the default setting.

Follow the instructions below to activate RocketLink Plug ‘n’ Play between CO (Model 3096RC) and CP (Model 3088/I) units:

•Set the Model 3096RC (CO) to either Internal or External clocking mode as deﬁned by the application.

•Verify that the Model 3088/I (CP) is conﬁgured for factory default settings.

Figure 20. Typical RocketLink Plug ‘n’ Play Application

When the units connect over DSL, the 3088/I (CP) will enter a predeﬁned default conﬁguration. During the negotiation process between the units, the 3096RC (CO unit) will conﬁgure the DTE rate/line rate on the 3088/I as deﬁned by the settings of the CO unit. When additional bandwidth is required, only the conﬁgura- tion of the CO unit should be changed. This feature gives ISPs, LECs and PTTs the ability to provision band- width on an as needed basis to customers.
