Page 3: Chapter 1 - Overview
Rack Mount or Stand Alone Description The TC8116 is a time division multiplexer which can multiplex up to 16 channels of signals. It can be factory or user configured to several different variations. The typical unit has one main PC board (A board) with two interface SIMM modules. The main PC board has eight RJ-11 ports: each RJ-11 port has one duplex data channel. -

Page 5: Led Functions
Rev. 5.6D LED Functions The TC8116's front panel LED indicators are divided into four categories: Power, Alarms, Optic Signal and Electrical Signal status. By understanding the functions of the LEDs & DIP switches, the user can ease installation and troubleshooting. -
Page 6: Dip Switch Functions
Rev. 5.6D DIP Switch Functions Groups 6 & 7 The DIP switch functions on the TC8116 apply individually to their respective "A" or "B" board. To activate the function, slide the appropriate switch to the On (Down or Right) position. -
Page 7: Electrical Signal Interface Connection & Pin Assignments
Pins 3 and 4 are balanced output pins. Pin 3 is the positive output (RxD+) while pin 4 is negative (RxD-). Either pin 6 or pin 1 can be Signal Ground. Only RS-422/RS-485 Async communications can be used with the TC8116 due to the limited number of pins on the RJ-11 connector. -

Page 12: Transmission Distances (Typical)
Transmission Distances (typical) The TC8116 will work with all popular sizes and types of fiber. Transmission distances up to 3km* are typical over Multimode fiber at 850nm and 4km* at 1310nm. Distances to 35km* are typical over Single Mode fiber at 1310nm. -
Page 13: Chapter 2 - Installation
Power Supply Each TC8116 card is powered by an external DC power adapter rated 9 to 12 VDC @400mA. There are two terminal block connectors labeled "PWR A" and "PWR B" only one is required to power up the unit. If your system has ten TC8116 cards, the power supply requirement is 10 x 400mA = 4.0A. -
Page 14: Chapter 3 - Troubleshooting
User's Manual Rev. 5.6D General Alarm conditions occur whenever an optical problem or "fault" condition is detected by the TC8116. Under normal operation, all LEDs should be lit, with the exception of the "ALM," "USE RxB" and inactive channel LEDs. -

& 4 for balanced signals), and the "IN," and "OUT" LEDs will light solidly and the "LOCLB" LED will flash. The loopback is formed inside the TC8116, after the input signal is converted to the TTL level. The purpose of this test is to verify the interface's input and output connections, signal input receiver and signal output driver. -
