  • Page 7: Multiplexer Mode

    In multiplexer mode timeslots that are not used for digital port data transmission are translated undistorted between E1 links. E1XL flexible multiplexer allows to allocate every digital port data in different E1 links, separate for both directions of data transmission. That is you can assign separate E1 links of data drop and insert for every digital port.

    IDSL E1-XL in “Drop-Insert” multiplexer mode The following is an example of E1XL device application in «Drop-Insert» mode. The figure below depicts three geographically distributed LANs interconnected using some timeslots of E1 link passing through LAN sites. Timeslots that are not engaged in transmission of data between LANs are used to connect two PBXs.

  • Page 16: Cts Generation Logic

    In independent links mode a single timing source for E1 path is usually used. The timing source can represent either an internal clock generator of an E1 multiplexer, or an external signal of a DTE device. The following figures depict examples of internal and external timing sources. Copyright © 2001 Cronyx...
  • Page 17: Separate Timing Sources

    Receive and transmit lines of E1 path are fully independent and can have separate timing sources. Below is an example of such a mode. MUX А MUX В From Port DTE A DTE B Separate timing from DTE A and multiplexer B Copyright © 2001 Cronyx...
  • Page 18: Synchronization In Multiplexer Mode

    (loss) of data frames. DTE emulation There are two clock pulse inputs (ERC and ETC) provided for connection of E1XL multiplexer to DCE via RS-232, V.35, or RS-530 digital interface in a synchronous mode. X.21 interface has ETC input only provided for.
  • Page 19: Dte2 Emulation Mode

    DTE2 emulation mode is used when connecting to DCE devices which do not support an external synchronization from a digital port (RS-232, V.35, RS-530). In this case E1XL multiplexer receives data at the digital port using clocks received at ETC input and transmits data using clocks received at ERC input.

    Bridge is capable of filtering packets, i. e. it passes over those packets only that have recipients in the LAN on the other side of the link. Cronyx E1-XL with Ethernet interface can compress Ethernet packets by truncating stuff bits required to form fixed length packets.
  • Page 31: Upgrade Of On-Board Firmware

    On-board firmware of the stand-alone multiplexer version can be overwrited using a PC and a special software via the console port. Firmware updates are available at Cronyx web site www.cronyx.ru. The software package includes detailed instructions describing the download procedure.

    If t1 + t2 equals to a half-cycle of the clock, then the change of the data at the input will fall just on the edge used by the modem to consider data valid. Copyright © 2001 Cronyx...
  • Page 34 The simplest way to realize such a connection is to use the mode of external synchronization of transmit paths in both devices (EXT). В А LINE LINE Connection of two DCE devices via the digital interface. Clock transmission path is shown. Copyright © 2001 Cronyx...
  • Page 35 There will be no errors in the link if the phase shift between these clocks does not equal to exactly a half-cycle that is unlikely to happen. Cronyx synchronous modems have DTE2 emulation mode that allows to eliminate any chance for the occurrence of such a situation. In this mode the digital interface has a FIFO buffer enabled in the received data path.
  • Page 36 HDLC flow has gaps stuffed with special bit chains (01111110) called “flags”. Cronyx modems allow to enable FIFO buffers in HDLC mode. In this case the control logic inserts HDLC flags between frames if the buffer tends to an underrun but throws odd HDLC flags if the buffer is threatened with an overrun.
