  • Page 36: Dacs Mapping

    A typical DACS application has two sets of paths: six network paths which are connected either to another T1 system or to a higher order multiplexer, and two paths connected to an IMUX 2000 Multiplexer. These paths are shown in Figure 2-6. The DACS monitors T1 data passing through it on its six network paths and uses an alternate map if an error is detected on one of these network paths.

The DACS can be used with an IMUX 2000 T1 or E1 Multiplexer, configured as a terminal or a drop/insert multiplexer. Each of these configurations can be fitted with an electrical interface, or with an optical interface using a variety of optical I/Os.
