150-402-111-02 Overview VERVIEW ® This user manual describes the HiGain Remote Unit, Model HRU-402 List 1A. This remote unit functions as the remote end of a repeaterless T1 transmission system. An HRU-402 connects either to a HiGain Line Unit (HLU) or a HiGain Doubler Unit (HDU), creating a HiGain system that provides 1.544 Mbps transmission on two unconditioned copper pairs over the full Carrier Service Area (CSA) range.
784 kbps full-duplex 2 Binary 1 Quaternary (2B1Q) HDSL transmission on each of two pairs • Digital Signal Level 0 (DS0) blocking • Compatible with ADC 1 x 1 protection switching system using the HRE-422 List 5 remote enclosure. • Narrow 200-type mechanics (half-width 400 mechanics) •...
150-402-111-02 Overview BPVT BER F EATURES The HRU-402 and its associated line units improve compatibility with Data Link Control (DLC) feeder applications due to T1 Bipolar Violation Transparency (BPVT) transmit capability between T1 interfaces. This feature is required to support protection switching in DLC applications. Each DLC terminal must be able to monitor the integrity of its receive T1 payload and then switch to the protect line when the integrity of the path drops below specific user selected limits.
Overview 150-402-111-02 The BER option also uses this (BPVT/CRC) TEC to generate an alarm if enabled. The HLU combines the one second TEC counts in both directions for the last 60 seconds. The line unit uses this one minute Total System Error Count (TSEC) to generate an alarm if it exceeds the selected BER threshold of (1E-6 or 1E-7) as follows: •...
150-402-111-02 Compatibility Each cable pair loop has less than 35 dB of loss at 196 kHz with 135 Ω driving and terminating impedances. Table 1 provides a guide for the loss of various cable gauges at 196 kHz and 135 Ω . Table 1 applies to the HDSL cable pairs between the HLU, HRU, and HDU modules.

Initializing the Maintenance Terminal Screens 150-402-111-02 Loopback Operation Loopbacks permit you to perform isolated diagnostic tests at specific points of the circuit. The transmitted signal is returned to the sending device after passing through a data communications link or network. This allows you to compare the returned signal with the transmitted signal and to determine if there is a problem with the circuit.
Page 51
150-402-111-02 Initializing the Maintenance Terminal Screens The HRU-402 supports four types of loopbacks (Figure 18 on page 42). • Network Remote (NREM): the DSX signal is looped back to the DSX at the HRU. • SmartJack (SMJK): loopback at the HRU towards the network initiated by a 2-in-5 in-band loopback code or out of band ESF facility data link (FDL) code.
Initializing the Maintenance Terminal Screens 150-402-111-02 SmartJack Set to ENA Upon detection of a valid SmartJack Loopback command, a loopback is activated and the T1framer chip transmits the AIS pattern to the NI and also back to the HRU-402 T1 receiver circuit. In addition, the customer’s T1 XMT input is disconnected and terminated.
150-402-111-02 Initializing the Maintenance Terminal Screens When the HRU is in its AIS/DIS SmartJack Loopback state, its T1 input LOS, Code and Frame monitoring circuits are connected to the network signal which is being looped back to these circuits through the loopback relay. The CPE input signal is no longer being monitored since its input circuit has been opened and terminated.
Initializing the Maintenance Terminal Screens 150-402-111-02 To test the loopbacks: Press the loopback control button on the remote unit front panel for at least 5 seconds (see Figure 2 on page 7 for the location of this button).
