Rev. 1.6 Description The Model TC1631R/S is a T1/E1 Fiber Optic Modem that converts analog T1 or E1 signals to digital fiber optic signal and vice versa. TC1631R is for 19" rackmount and TC1631S is for standalone unit. Both have the same functions and features, the only difference is power connectors.

Standard input power to the TC1631S is 12VDC @350mA. There are two power jacks at the rear panel for power redundancy. TC1631R is the rackmount version of the TC1631S. It can be inserted into the card slot when power is on (hot swapable).
Slide the appropriate switches to the Right (On) position. Internal SW2-6, 7, 8 (see Figure 5). Depending on the copper distance between the TC1631R/S and the T1 cross connect, set the copper Line Length for the T1 transmit line driver according to the table below. When connecting to DSX-1 cross- connects for copper Line Lengths ranging from 0 to 655 feet, see DIP Switch Functions on page 6.

If no LEDs are lit on the unit, check the DC power supply, terminal block connector plug, change to alternate power jack on the rear panel, fuses A and/or B indicated on page 16, and/or the power source. If the problem persists, contact the Technical Support Department at TC Communications, Inc. Alarm LED When an alarm condition is detected, the Alarm LED will flash.
1. Make sure all electrical signal connections match the pin assignments (I/O) for the device (check User's Manual if necessary). 2. Verify the signal connections by checking the status LEDs on the front panel of the TC1631R/S. If the "LOCRD" LED is "Flashing", a transmit signal is not being detected from the local device. If the "RMTRD"...
5. The "Vcc" LED should be illuminated. Please note: all other LEDs can be in a random state (flashing, solidly lit, or off) as only upon proper receipt and transmission of a signal will the TC1631R/S unit set its LEDs appropriately for normal operation. Proceed to the Local Loopback Test.
Remote Optic Loopback Test 1. Connect a second TC1631R/S unit. As with the first unit, follow the bench test steps on the previous page. When you have completed the Local Loopback & Optical Loopback tests for the second unit, proceed to the next step.
User's Manual Appendix A Rev. 1.6 The E1 interface impedance on the TC1631R/S is user configurable by changing the jumpers on the interface module. Please follow the instructions below to set the E1 impedance appropriately. Setting the E1 Interface Impedance 1.
TC1631R/S User's Manual Appendix B Rev. 1.6 Electrical Signal Cable Connection The user's device may have a DB15 or RJ45 connector. The following connection diagrams illustrate the signal flow direction and pin assignments typically used with these connectors. Note: The polarity of the T1/E1 signal is bipolar, independent of the polarity. Polarity is shown for reference only.
