4.9.1.5 Collision Avoidance

When properly implemented, the physical and logical devices and ID addressing scheme of the COMMSPEC normally precludes message packet contention on the control bus. The importance of designating unique IDs for each device during station configuration cannot be overemphasized. One pitfall, which is often overlooked, concerns multi-drop override IDs. All too often, multiple devices of the same type are assigned in a direct-linked ("single-thread") configuration accessible to the M&C computer directly.

For example, if two DMD15 Modems with different addresses (DESTINATION IDs) are linked to the same control bus at the same hierarchical level, both will attempt to respond to the M&C computer when the computer generates a multi-drop override ID of 22. If their actual setup parameters, status, or internal timing differs, they will both attempt to respond to the override simultaneously with different information or asynchronously in their respective message packets and response packets, causing a collision on the serial control bus.

To preclude control bus data contention, different IDs must always be assigned to the equipment. If two or more devices are configured for direct-linked operation, then the M&C computer and all other devices configured in the same manner must be programmed to inhibit broadcast of the corresponding multi-drop override ID.

The multi-drop override ID is always accepted by devices of the same type on a common control bus, independent of the actual DESTINATION ID. These override IDs with the exception of “BROADCAST” are responded to by all directly-linked devices of the same type causing contention on the bus. The “BROADCAST” ID, on the other hand, is accepted by all equipment but none of then returns a response packet to the remote M&C.

DMD15, DMD15L specifications

The Paradyne DMD15L and DMD15 are advanced digital modems designed to enhance communication in a variety of networking environments. As part of Paradyne's robust portfolio of networking solutions, these devices are engineered to deliver reliable and efficient data transmission over both copper and fiber optic connections.

One of the main features of the DMD15L and DMD15 is their capability to support Multiple Protocol Data Units (MPDUs), which enables them to handle a diverse range of network protocols seamlessly. This flexibility makes them suitable for different applications, from industrial automation to telecommunications.

These modems utilize advanced modulation techniques, such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM), to maximize data throughput while maintaining signal integrity. This ensures that users benefit from high-speed connections, even in challenging signal environments. Furthermore, the DMD15 series incorporates Error Correction Codes (ECC) that enhance data reliability, effectively reducing packet loss and ensuring data coherence during transmission.

The DMD15L is particularly notable for its long-range capabilities, making it a go-to solution for users requiring extended distances without compromising data quality. It features built-in Adaptive Equalization, which automatically adjusts signal levels to optimize performance over varying transmission distances. This technology is crucial in maintaining consistent high-speed connectivity, especially in environments with variable conditions.

Both models are equipped with user-friendly interfaces that facilitate configuration and management. They support SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for real-time network monitoring, allowing administrators to track performance metrics and identify potential issues before they impact users. The devices also include LED indicators for quick status checks, ensuring that users have immediate visibility of operational conditions.

In terms of physical characteristics, the DMD15 and DMD15L are designed for durability and ease of installation. They come in a compact form factor, making them suitable for deployment in constrained spaces. Additionally, their robust casing is built to withstand harsh environmental conditions, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations.

Overall, the Paradyne DMD15L and DMD15 are high-performance modems that combine versatile technologies, reliability, and user-friendly features. They are excellent choices for organizations looking to enhance their communication capabilities and ensure robust data transmission across diverse networks. With their advanced functionalities and adaptability, these modems stand out as key components in modern network infrastructure.
