Overview

This chapter describes the PA-4E1G port adapter and contains the following sections:

Port Adapter Overview

The PA-4E1G, shown in
which are compatible with and specified by G.703/G.704. The PA-4E1G network interfaces provide a
connection between standard serial interfaces such as V.35 to telephone lines or Post, Telephone, and
Telegraph (PTT) networks. Each PA-4E1G interface operates in full-duplex mode at E1 (2.048 Mbps)
speed.
The PA-4E1G interfaces do not operate in the data terminal equipment (DTE) and data communications
equipment (DCE) modes that are typical of data communications interfaces. The PA-4E1G interfaces
operate with either a line-recovered or an internal clock signal. The default is for a line clock signal that
the interface recovers from the received data stream. The interface can also operate with an internal clock
signal. The PA-4E1G generates the internal clock signal; the interface does not use the motherboard or
system clock.
