LTPH-UM-1109-01, Issue 1 VERVIEW The H2TU-C-231 List 2 line unit is the Central Office (CO) side of a T1 transmission system. The HiGain™ HDSL2 product family is fully compliant with the HDSL2 standard ANSI T1.418-2000. Providing full-rate T1 access using just a single copper pair, HDSL2 is a cost-effective solution that offers an open architecture. The open architecture inherent in HDSL2 guarantees interoperability allowing simple and economic accommodation of network growth.
DS1 is used throughout this document to refer to either the remote unit’s DS1 interface or the line unit’s DSX-1 interface. OMPATIBILITY The H2TU-C-231 List 2 is designed to mount in 220 mechanics shelves. For a list of compatible shelves see “Appendix C - Compatibility” on page PPLICATIONS HiGain HDSL2 systems provide a cost-effective, easy-to-deploy method for delivering T1 High Capacity Digital Service (HCDS) over a single copper pair.

The transceivers of the H2TU-C and H2TU-R are trying to establish contact with each other over the HDSL2 loop. The line code that H2TU-C-231 is receiving at its DSX-1 interface, if the DS1 option is set to AUTO. Otherwise, it mimics either of the other two DS1 line code settings, Alternate Mark Inversion (AMI) or Bipolar with 8-Zero Substitution (B8ZS).
To comply with the intrabuilding wiring requirements of GR-1089 CORE, Section 4.5.9, the shields of the ABAM-type cables that connect the H2TU-C-231 List 2 DSX-1 output ports to the cross-connect panel must be grounded at both ends.
Installation ERIFICATION Once the H2TU-C-231 is installed, verify that it is operating properly. To do this, monitor the following: • Status LED (see Figure 1 on page • Status messages reported by the front-panel display (see Verification without an H2TU-R Remote Unit If there is no H2TU-R remote unit installed: Verify that the H2TU-C powers up.
SING THE Setting Options through MODE and SEL To provision the H2TU-C-231 List 2 through the MODE and SEL pushbuttons on the front panel: Press the MODE pushbutton for 1 second and release it. The front-panel display alternately shows the first system parameter and its current setting.
Provisioning Resetting to Factory Default Values All user options for the H2TU-C-231 List 2 MODE and SEL pushbuttons. To set the user options to their default values: Press the SEL pushbutton for 6 seconds until the following message appears: DFLT NO Press the SEL pushbutton while the DFLT NO message is displayed.
Connecting to a Maintenance Terminal The craft port on the front panel allows you to connect the H2TU-C-231 to a maintenance terminal (ASCII terminal or PC running a terminal emulation program). Once connected to a maintenance terminal, you can access the maintenance, provisioning, and performance screens.
Identifies the 100 most recent system events and reports the date and time of occurrence. Config Provides standard configuration options, ADC options, BER tester (BERT), date and time setting, and a reset option (factory settings). Also provides a master clear option that clears all performance, alarm, and event log entries.
Provides a glossary of terms used in the maintenance screens, a list of navigational keys, and ADC contact information. ROVISIONING ASKS After H2TU-C-231 is successfully installed, perform these basic provisioning tasks. • Set date and time (see “Setting Date and Time”...

Only line parameters are considered when monitoring DS1 performance. The H2TU-C-231 and H2TU-R monitor the incoming DS1 bit streams for the B8ZS code. If the H2TU-R detects this code, the H2TU-C enters B8ZS output mode. The H2TU-C reverts back to AMI output mode if no B8ZS codes are received at the H2TU-R input for 5 seconds.

3. Connecting one cable between the two bridging jacks and another between the two LINE jacks splits the IN and OUT and creates metallic loopbacks towards both the DSX-1 and the H2TU-C-231. If separate plugs are inserted into both LINE jacks with the other end disconnected, the BRG jacks can be used to send and receive test patterns towards the DSX-1.
A tester at the customer premises can activate CLOC, CRG, or CREM loopbacks. All loopbacks shown Table 17 can also be initiated from the H2TU-C-231 front-panel MODE and SEL pushbuttons (see Options through MODE and SEL” on page Table 17. Addressable Repeater Loopback Commands (A1LB, A2LB, A5LB)

The -48 Vdc power consumption is the maximum total power that the H2TU-C-231 consumes or draws from the shelf power source. This parameter is needed when the H2TU-C-231 is in a location remote to the CO it is serving.

Figure 31. H2TU-C-231 List 2 Card-Edge Connector Network Management Control Bus The H2TU-C-231 provides a Network Management Control Bus on pin 46 of the card-edge connector. This allows the various ADC Management System protocols to manage the H2TU-C through the HMU-319 HiGain Management Unit.
The following notes apply to pins 20 and 21: • The H2TU-C-231 Status LED flashes red for the duration of a system alarm condition. • Setting the ALM option to DIS only prevents the system alarm relay pins 20 and 21 from closing for a system alarm event.
