Should the Power Cable/AC Connector be of the wrong type for the installation, either the cable or the power connector end should be replaced. The power supply itself is designed for universal application using from 100 to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz, 1.0 A.

2.3 Mounting Considerations

When mounted in an equipment rack, adequate ventilation must be provided. The ambient temperature in the rack should preferably be between 10° and 35° C, and held constant for best equipment operation. The air available to the rack should be clean and relatively dry. The modem units may be stacked one on top of the other to a maximum of 10 consecutive units before providing one RU of space for airflow. Modem units should not be placed immediately above a high heat or EMF Generator to ensure the output signal integrity and proper receive operation.

Do not mount the DMD15/DMD15L in an unprotected outdoor location where there is direct contact with rain, snow, wind or sun. The modem is designed for indoor applications only. The only tools required for rack mounting the DMD15/DMD15L is a set of four rack-mounting screws and the appropriate screwdriver. Rack mounting brackets are an integral part of the cast front bezel of the unit and are not removable.

2.4 DMD15/DMD15L Initial Configuration Check

The DMD15/DMD15L is shipped from the factory with preset factory defaults. Upon initial power- up, a user check should be performed to verify the shipped modem configuration. Refer to Section 4, User Interfaces to locate and verify that the following configuration settings are correct:

The DMD15/DMD15L Interface Type (V.35, RS-422, RS-232, G.703, etc.) MUST be selected from the Front Panel BEFORE the mating connectors are installed. Failure to do so may cause damage to the Universal Interface Module. Power up the DMD15/DMD15L, select the appropriate interface type, and then install the mating connectors.

Note: Transmit (Tx) and Receive (Rx) Interface types are dependent upon the customer’s order.

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.
