HDSL line to the RT is operated at the minimum rate to support the payload. HDSL Transmission The PAU-710 uses ADC’s HDSL 2B1Q technology to transport 2 DS0s, plus signalling, over one copper pair to each RT. The HDSL circuits can be used without pair selection. Adaptive equalization, scrambling, and a four-level 2B1Q line coding scheme are used to maximize distance and minimize crosstalk.
SCP-PLL734-020-03H Description and Features Monitoring, History, and Diagnostics The COLU provides real-time, nondisruptive monitoring of HDSL transmission performance parameters for all units in a circuit. You can set threshold values for the performance monitoring measurements at the appropriate COLU screen. Alarms are activated at the designated threshold setting. The user interface ports performance is also monitored.
Description and Features SCP-PLL734-020-03H • The COLU cannot power the RTs due to a short circuit. • The COLU cannot power the RTs due to HDSL Tip or Ring Fault to GND. • LOSW If the alarm is on the COLU, then the COLU cannot synchronize with the A or B RT, then both the COLU and the A or B RT are out of service.

Required Tools and Test Equipment SCP-PLL734-020-03H NSTALLATION AND Observe normal electrostatic discharge precautions when handling electronic equipment. Do not hold electronic plugs by their edge. Do not touch components or circuitry. The following procedure assumes that an RT is installed in the system and all wiring between the CO and the RT has been completed and verified.
SCP-PLL734-020-03H Initialization Sequence NITIALIZATION EQUENCE The COLU continuously attempts to power up the RTs until end-to-end HDSL synchronization is established. If the COLU is unable to establish synchronization, it powers down the loops and waits 5 minutes before re-trying. The COLU initialization and power up sequence described below assumes that the HDSL and auxiliary power pairs are wired from the COTS and terminated at the RTs.
Subscriber Drop Tests SCP-PLL734-020-03H – The COLU detects, and is able to synchronize with, an RTs: Within 1 minute, the SYNC LED remains on and the COLU establishes synchronized HDSL communications with the RTs. Assuming the HDSL margins are above alarm thresholds, and there are no subscriber drop tests or other alarms or faults in the system, the COLU LEDs are in the following states: PWR is on...
