Arm1 (also known

11000

If the pattern is sent from the network, the units will arm and the H2TU-R

as 2-in-5 pattern)

 

will loop up toward the network. No AIS or errors will be sent as a result

 

 

of this loopback. If the pattern is sent from the customer, all units will

 

 

arm.

 

 

 

Arm (ESF Data

FF48

If the pattern is sent from the network, the units will arm and an H2TU-R

Link)

1111 1111 0100

network loopback will be activated. This code has no functionality when

 

1000

sent from the customer.

 

 

 

Disarm1 (in-band)

11100

When sent from the network or customer, all units are removed from the

(also known as

 

armed state and loopbacks will be released. If any of the units are in

3-in-5 pattern)

 

loopback when the 11100 pattern is received, they will loop down. The

 

 

LBK LEDs will turn off on all units.

 

 

 

Disarm1

FF24

When sent from the network or customer, all units are removed from the

(ESF Data Link)

1111 1111 0010

armed state and loopbacks will be released.

 

0100

 

 

 

 

H2TU-C Network

D3D3

If the units have been armed and no units are in loopback*, the H2TU-C

Loop Up1, 2

1101 0011 1101

will loop up, 2 seconds of AIS (all ones) will be transmitted, the looped

 

0011

data will be sent for 5 seconds, and then a burst of 231 logic errors will be

 

 

injected. The burst of 231 logic errors will continue every 20 seconds as

 

 

long as the D3D3 pattern is detected. When the pattern is removed, the

 

 

unit will remain in loopback. If the pattern is re-instated, the injection of

 

 

231 logic errors will continue every 20 seconds. If the pattern is sent from

 

 

the network, the loop up and error injection will be toward the network. If

 

 

the pattern is sent from the customer, the loopback and error injection will

 

 

be toward the customer.

 

 

 

H2TU-R Address

C754

When sent from the customer, an H2TU-R network loopback is activated

20 for extended

1100 0111 0101

and a 200-bit error confirmation is sent. Two seconds of AIS (all ones)

demarc1

0100

will be sent, 5 seconds of data will pass, and then 200 bit errors will be

 

 

injected into the DSX-1 signal. As long as the pattern continues to be sent,

 

 

200 errors will be injected every 20 seconds. The HDSL2 office unit will

 

 

not block transmission of far end NIU loopback from the customer premise

 

 

(H2TU-R).

 

 

 

Note: All codes listed above must be sent for a minimum of 5 seconds in order for them to be detected and acted upon. * If NIU is enabled, then the H2TU-R can be in network loopback when the H2TU-C loop up codes are sent.

1The H2TU-C and H2TU-R individually detect and act upon in-band loopback control codes. Depending on which list number of

H2TU-R is used with the Litespan H2TU-C, some of these control codes may not cause action (such as loop up, error injection, etc.) at the H2TU-R.

Refer to the H2TU-R documentation for supported control codes.

2Units must be armed with 11000b or FF48h before this code will work

3In order to behave like a NIU, the H2TU-R will not loop down from the network side with 9393h.

4 This code will be detected only if the units are armed OR if any loopbacks are active.

ADTRAN AHDSL2 specifications Table A-1. In-Band Addressable Loopback Codes

AHDSL2 specifications

ADTRAN AHDSL2 is a sophisticated technology designed to enhance broadband connectivity, primarily focusing on delivering high-speed internet access through existing copper telephone lines. This solution is integral in supporting various applications, including voice, video, and data transmission, making it a versatile choice for service providers looking to upgrade their networks.

One of the key features of ADTRAN AHDSL2 is its ability to support asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) technology, which allows for faster download speeds compared to upload speeds. This asymmetry is particularly beneficial for typical internet usage patterns where users often download more data than they upload. AHDSL2 can provide download speeds of up to 24 Mbps and upload speeds around 1 to 3 Mbps, depending on the line conditions and distance from the central office.

ADTRAN's AHDSL2 technology incorporates advanced capabilities such as auto-negotiation and improved line diagnostics. These features enable service providers to automatically adjust the settings for optimal performance based on the quality of the copper line. Furthermore, the built-in diagnostics tools help in the identification and troubleshooting of potential issues, reducing time and resources spent on maintenance and support.

The technology also supports the ITU G.992.3 and G.992.5 standards, which enhance the reach and efficiency of DSL services. It offers better performance in high-noise environments and allows for longer distances between the end-user and the central office, thus expanding the coverage area for broadband services.

Another significant aspect of ADTRAN AHDSL2 is its ability to operate over a range of frequencies, which minimizes interference from other services. By using frequency division multiplexing, the technology ensures that voice and data can be transmitted simultaneously without degradation of service quality.

ADTRAN AHDSL2 is also designed with scalability in mind, making it suitable for various deployment scenarios, whether in residential or commercial settings. Service providers can easily integrate this technology into their existing networks, ensuring a seamless upgrade path as customer demands for bandwidth continue to rise.

Overall, ADTRAN AHDSL2 stands out as a reliable and efficient solution for enhancing broadband services over copper infrastructure, with features that cater to both service provider needs and end-user demands for high-speed internet access. Its combination of advanced technology and easy integration makes it a compelling choice for operators looking to improve their service offerings.
