Introduction Chapter 1 WHAT IS HDLC? HDLC (High-Level Data Link Control) is a synchronous, bit-oriented data link control protocol that is used extensively in wide-area networks. Because of its popularity, HDLC has been the basis for a number of other protocols including LAPD (ISDN), PPP, and Frame Relay.
Chapter 1. Introduction HDLC MODULE - WHEN IS IT NEEDED? The HDLC Module is required for ATLAS applications requiring a large HDLC Controllers ( number of the HDLC Module includes 128 HDLC Con- trollers). As a resource module for the ATLAS system, the HDLC Module has no external physical interfaces.
Chapter 1. Introduction ATLAS SUPPORT OF HDLC CONTROLLERS ATLAS allocates HDLC Controllers to meet the user-application require- ments without user intervention. Table 1-1 describes ATLAS hardware components that include HDLC controllers. Table 1-1. ATLAS Components and Integrated HDLC Controllers Component Controllers Description ATLAS 800 Base Unit...
Chapter 1. Introduction This situation requires 24 HDLC Controllers and, therefore, requires the HDLC Module. 3. T3 Transporting One or More PRI Circuits When a T3 circuit is transporting one or more PRI circuits, the HDLC Module is required to process the PRIs' D Channels. Two general-purpose HDLC Controllers can terminate a PRI from PLUS the T3 as needed, if you are using the ATLAS800...
Carefully inspect the HDLC Module for shipping damages. If damage is suspected, file a claim immediately with the carrier and then contact ADTRAN Technical Support. If possible, keep the original shipping con- tainer for use in returning the HDLC Module for repair or for verification of shipping damage.
Any self-test failures display in the terminal menu self-test log. WARRANTY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE ADTRAN will replace or repair this product within five years from the date of shipment if the product does not meet its published specification, or if it fails while in service.
