152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Overview VERVIEW The HiGain HDSL2 product family is the industry’s first practical implementation of High bit-rate Digital Subscriber Line 2 (HDSL2). HiGain HDSL2 products are fully compliant with the HDSL2 standard (ANSI T1.418-2000). Providing full rate DS1 access using just a single copper pair, HDSL2 is a cost-effective solution that offers an open architecture.
Overview 152-202-116-02, Issue 2 • Digital Data Service (DDS) latching loopback • Payload (PL) and HiGain (HG) loopback source identification • Network Management and Administration (NMA) interface • Margin Alarm (MAL) threshold The term ‘DS1’ in this manual refers to DS1 and DSX-1 interfaces. OMPATIBILITY The H2TU-C-202 is designed to mount in 200 and 400 mechanics, high-density shelves.
152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Front Panel RONT ANEL Figure 1 shows the H2TU-C-202 List 1F front panel. Table 1 on page 4 describes the front-panel components. For pinout diagrams of the H2TU-C card-edge connector and craft port, refer to “Appendix A - Specifications” on page Figure 1.

Installation 152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Verification without a Downstream Device If there is no downstream device installed: Verify that the H2TU-C powers up. The four status LEDs illuminate and report the status. (See Table 2 on page 4 for a list of status LED messages.) Verify that the H2TU-C attempts to communicate with downstream devices (the LOOP LED flashes green).
152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Provisioning ROVISIONING The H2TU-C-202 List 1F can be provisioned by accessing the HiGain HDSL2 maintenance screens (Figure 3 on page 9). The maintenance screens are accessed through a maintenance terminal (ASCII terminal or a PC running terminal emulation software) connected to the H2TU-C craft port (or to an HMU craft port). This gives you full access to all H2TU-C status, history, inventory, and provisioning screens.
Provisioning 152-202-116-02, Issue 2 The Logon Screen The maintenance terminal screens allow you to monitor, provision, and troubleshoot an HDSL2 system. To select a menu from the HiGain HDSL2 logon screen (Figure 3 on page 9), do one of the following: •...

152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Provisioning HDSL2 BER (HBER) Option. The HBER option permits the monitoring of loop integrity and reporting of alarms when excessive errors are detected. The PM primitive used for this purpose is the CRC checksum performed on the HDSL2 frame for both directions of transmission. It is, therefore, called a block error rate rather than the bit error rate associated with the DS1 interface.
Page 26
Provisioning 152-202-116-02, Issue 2 DS1 BER (DBER) Option. The DS1 BER alarm occurs when any of the DS1 or DSX-1 performance monitoring parameters listed in Table 7 exceed the counts shown for the 24-hour period between 12:00:00 AM through 11:59:59 PM. These thresholds correspond to a 10 BER.

The RAI-CI signal is a RAI signal which contains a signature indicating that an LOF or AIS failure has occurred in the customer installation (CI) at the H2TU-R unit and that the defect or failure which caused the origination of that RAI is not found in the signal from the network.

152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Appendix A - Specifications OWER ONSUMPTION The maximum power consumption and heat dissipation depends upon the type of remote and regenerator units in the system and the CPE power setting. The three most important power parameters of an H2TU-C are its maximum power consumption, maximum power dissipation, and maximum current drain.
Network Management Control Bus The H2TU-C 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-231 HiGain Management Unit. Some H2TU-C-202 List 1F features are affected when it is under management.

152-202-116-02, Issue 2 Appendix B - Functional Operation ROUND AULT ETECT The H2TU-C has a Ground Fault Detect (GFD) circuit which detects a ground or a resistive path to ground on any wire of any span in the loop with a non-zero voltage. GFD is always active in HDSL2 because power is fixed at -185 Vdc.
