Payload Scrambling Option

The OC3port Plus has a payload scrambling option that turns the automatic
scrambling of ATM cell payloads on and off. The advantage of using this option is
that it lets you further differentiate the header bytes from the payload, thereby
improving the efficiency of the cell delineation process. Payload scrambling can
provide a solution to some transmission equipment that is sensitive to certain bit
patterns in the ATM payload. The scrambler guarantees a higher ones density and
no false triggering of alarms.
In payload scrambling, ATM cells are extracted from the transmitted payload and
scrambled using an X
process is reversed and the X
payload.
Payload scrambling is activated or de-activated by changing the setting for the
option. To change this setting, follow these steps:
