Indicator

Description

 

 

SX

ON indicates no sealing current present

 

on the local loop; check for continuity

 

and proper DDS termination at remote

 

end (TR DDS-R).

 

 

SYNC

ON indicates that there is no sync

 

between the TR DDS-DP and the remote

 

TR DDS-R; check for continuity, load

 

coils, and other abnormal line

 

conditions.

 

 

NE CRC

ON indicates that there are errors on the

 

incoming data stream; check for the

 

abnormal line conditions closer to the

 

TR DDS-DP (NEAR END).

 

 

FE CRC

ON indicates that there are errors

 

occurring towards the remote TR DDS-

 

R; check for the abnormal line

 

conditions closer to the TR DDS-R

 

(FAR END).

 

 

QM

ON indicates that a Quality Monitor

 

Disconnect has occurred.

 

 

DSU

Yellow indicates the absence of the

 

customer DSU/CSU as determined by

 

the TR DDS-R. Disconnected

 

DSU/CSU, invalid framing pattern, or

 

no RX signal from the DSU/CSU

 

triggers a yellow LED.

 

Green indicates presence of the customer

 

DSU/CSU as determined by the TR

 

DDS-R.

 

 

MAN

ON indicates rate has been manually

 

selected using SW2.

 

 

LBK

ON if DSO loopback is active,

 

OR if a DS6 session is active.

 

FLASHING if OCU loopback active,

 

OR if TR DDS-R has activated TR

 

DDS-DP loopback toward customer.

 

 

DS0 DP units. The Total Reach DDS-DP only responds to latching DS0 DP loopback sequences.

NOTE

If 64 kbps is selected, the unit will only respond to latching loopback sequences. Alternating sequences are not valid at this rate.

Total Reach DDS-DP Bidirectional Loopback Support

The Series 5 Total Reach DDS-DP will execute a bidirectional loopback when performing a DS0 loopback, as shown in Figure 4. This allows a standard portable DDS test set, connected to the 4-wire customer interface of the Total Reach DDS-R, to verify the integrity of the 2-wire loop by transmitting a test pattern and examining the returning data for synchronization and errors. The Series 5 Total Reach DDS-DP LBK indicator will illuminate during this test mode.

The Series 5 Total Reach DDS-DP also responds to a loopback command sent by the Total Reach DDS-R when the LBK button on the Total Reach DDR-R is pressed. This allows loop testing to be performed from the remote end without test center coordination. The SLC Series 5 Total Reach DDS-DP only performs a loopback towards the customer in this case. The latching and alternating loopback sequences are defined in Table 3 and Table 4.

Total Reach DDS Trouble Code

The Total Reach DDS system is designed to provide a quick diagnosis in the case of a circuit condition where continuity is broken. The trouble code type received by a tester determines whether the open condition is occurring on the local loop or at the customer premises. In the event of an open conductor or disconnected 2-wire loop, the Total Reach DDS-DP transmits an alternating ASC/MOS trouble code into the network as shown in Figure 5. In the event of a 4-wire open or disconnect, the TR DDS-R sends an ASC to the network as seen in Figure 5.

Remote End Initiated LBK Tests

The Total Reach DDS-DP supports loopbacks generated from the TROCU-R which allow testing to be performed without coordination with the CO or test center. Loopbacks initiated by the TROCU-R front panel LBK pushbutton aid in system turn-up testing or troubleshooting from the remote end.

DDS-DP specifications

ADTRAN DDS-DP, or Digital Data Services-Digital Processor, is a robust network access solution designed to deliver high-performance data connectivity. Employed primarily in telecommunications, DDS-DP provides businesses with a reliable means of transmitting digital data over traditional copper infrastructure. This versatile technology is essential for organizations that require uninterrupted access to critical information and communication networks.

One of the primary features of ADTRAN DDS-DP is its ability to support multiple data rates, enabling organizations to choose the speed that best suits their operational requirements. With standard data rates typically ranging from 56 Kbps to 1.544 Mbps, DDS-DP caters to a variety of applications including point-of-sale systems, polling and monitoring services, and data gathering for remote installations. This flexibility makes it a go-to option for businesses across different verticals.

The technology behind DDS-DP incorporates advanced modulation techniques that allow efficient transmission over existing copper lines. By leveraging the capabilities of Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) technology and Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), DDS-DP ensures a seamless flow of data, while minimizing latency and maintaining quality of service. This aspect is particularly crucial for businesses that rely heavily on real-time data communication, such as financial institutions or healthcare facilities.

ADTRAN DDS-DP also includes robust error correction features, enhancing data integrity during transmission. By employing techniques such as Forward Error Correction (FEC), the system can detect and correct errors on-the-fly, which is vital for maintaining communication reliability. The system is designed to operate in various environments, whether in a central office or distributed remote locations.

Another key characteristic of DDS-DP is its backward compatibility with existing systems, allowing organizations to upgrade without a complete overhaul of their infrastructure. This ensures that businesses can continue to utilize their current hardware while benefiting from enhanced performance and capabilities.

Furthermore, ADTRAN's commitment to customer support and ongoing software updates facilitates the long-term viability of DDS-DP, allowing businesses to adapt to changing demands and technological advancements over time. In summary, ADTRAN DDS-DP stands out as a resilient and adaptable solution for organizations seeking to optimize their digital communication strategy, making it an essential component of modern data networks.
