E.3 Configuration Examples

The four-port G.703 Interface allows one or more modems to be looped together using the same
T1 or E1 trunk.
The Transmit Data Trunk is brought into the modem via the Send Data In (SDI) Port. From there,
the TX Baseband Processor extracts the selected timeslots from the G.704 Frame and prepares
them for transmission. The original trunk data is sent out of the modem unaltered via the Send
Data Out (SDO) Port. The Receive Data Trunk is brought into the modem via the Insert Data In
(IDI) Port. The data is buffered inside the modem and the RX Baseband Processor inserts
satellite data into the selected timeslots in the G.704 Frame. The modified terrestrial trunk is then
output via the Receive Data Out (RDO) Port.
Figure E-1 shows two modems looped together. This configuration could be simplified to just use
one modem, or extended to use more than two modems. Figure E-2 shows an alternative
method of looping where all of the drop (transmit) data is processed prior to performing any insert
(receive) processing. In both configurations, the terrestrial trunk is providing the timing for the
satellite transmission and for the terrestrial receive.
