Uplink Mode, uplink operation mode

SDH

SONET

BER Threshold, controls activation of the Line BER SD and EED Enable, the EED and SD statistics data is collected Disable, the EED and SD statistics data is not collected

EED Threshold, Excessive Error Defect threshold in 1E-N, where N = 3, 4 or 5. The Excessive Error Defect is detected if an equivalent BER exceeds selected EED threshold. The Excessive Error Defect is cleared if the equivalent BER is better then 1E-(EED + 1).

10E-3,10E-4,10E-5

SD Threshold, Degraded Signal Defect threshold in 1E-N, where N = 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9. The Degraded Signal Defect is detected if an equivalent BER exceeds selected SD threshold. The Degraded Signal Defect is cleared if the equivalent BER is better then 1E-(SD + 1).

10E-5,10E-6,10E-7,10E-8,10E-9

J1 Path Trace Configuration controls the insertion of a user-defined test string (trace) into the transmit path (J1 byte). A second menu opens to define the following:

Enable/Disable, transmit path trace insertion is enabled or disabled

Actual Rx Path Trace, specifies the format of the path trace (up to 62 characters for SONET and up to 15 characters for SDH)

Tx Path Trace, transmit test string Rx Path Trace, receive test string Padding, select spaces or nulls.

Note Both sites must be configured the in the same manner.

J1 Path Trace.

Physical Failure Forwarding specifies whether the Ethernet traffic is interrupted if an STM-1/OC-3c uplink failure is detected.

Enable the Ethernet traffic is interrupted if an STM-1/OC-3c uplink failure is detected

Disable the Ethernet traffic is not interrupted if an STM-1/OC-3c uplink failure is detected.
