ADTRAN T200 IDSL warranty Remote Provisioning and Diagnostics, Maintenance, Deployment Guidelines

6.REMOTE PROVISIONING AND DIAGNOSTICS

Control Protocol

Remote access to provisioning and status information is accomplished using ADTRAN Digital System 6 Message protocol, defined in Control and Diagnostic Procedures Practice, Section 6032991-6. Digital System 6 is supported by the TPI 108/109 and 105 portable test set and is supported by Hekimian React 2001 Release 1.900 remote test system. The IDSL OCU-R network element complies with ANSI T1.107-1995, “Digital Hierarchy Format Specifications Annex G” which allows remote provisioning, querying, and performance monitoring via inband control of network elements.

NOTE

The REACT 2001 GUI software Release 1.900 supports ANSI T1.107-1995.

Remote access is accomplished using a defined set of inband DS0 byte sequences similar to the latching loopback sequence. Commands issued through the test system are recognized by the individual channel unit, which responds with the appropriate byte sequences. These inband commands may be used to verify options via dialogs with REACT 2001 and TPI 108/109 test sets. Unit CLEI, serial number, provisioning, and performance information can be retrieved remotely using the Digital System 6 protocol.

Provisioning and Status

All configuration options can be remotely viewed or provisioned. The front panel AP LED indicator Flashes during control link establishment and remains ON after the IDSL OCU-R has been remotely provisioned.

If the IDSL OCU-R has been remotely provisioned, the operator can alternate between remote configuration and manual switch settings by pressing the momentary LBK button located on the front panel for 5 seconds. If the IDSL OCU-R is removed from the system, the unit retains previous provisioning information in nonvolatile RAM.

The AP LED remains ON when the IDSL OCU-R is operating based on Remote Provisioning, and is OFF when operating on manual switches. See Table 5 for LED indication.

7. MAINTENANCE

The T200 IDSL OCU-R does not require routine maintenance for normal operation.

8. DEPLOYMENT GUIDELINES

The IDSL OCU-R allows a standard U-interface to be used to provide DDS over a single pair. Listed below are the loop design guidelines for deployment of DDS over IDSL.

•All loops must be nonloaded.

•Actual Measured Loss (AML) should not exceed 40 dB at 40 kHz (135 Ω termination), the Nyquist frequency of a U-interface.

•Total bridged tap length should not exceed 2 kft.

NOTE

If any of the above Deployment Guideline criteria are not met, design should be considered using Total Reach DDS, with the exception of the first bullet.
