System Overview Fan Faceplate Option (FFO) Carrier Access’ Wide Bank 28 DS3 Multiplexer provides a standards-based M1-3 multiplexing function. This product converts a framed Digital Signal Level 3 (DS3) network connection to 28 Digital Signal Level 1 (DS1) connections to T1 facilities, or 21 connections to E1 facilities.
DS3 C-bit application for Far-End terminal alarming, status reporting, and remote loopback initiation DS3 C-bit application terminal-to-terminal data link for identification message support and management of the remote terminal using Telnet, SNMP, or TL1 over PPP Wide Bank 28 DS3 - Release 2.4 July 2004...
Because of independent timing and transparent framing, the installation and maintenance of the DS1 or E1 connections are easily managed. Because the Wide Bank 28 DS3 transmits DS1 or E1 streams transparently into a DS3 composite, there are no framing or timing options to set on the 28 DS1 or 21 E1 connections.
Security To control access to user interface functions, the Wide Bank 28 DS3 Multiplexer supports a multiple-level user security system. Basic security, which allows users to be assigned access levels and passwords, is supported by all Wide Banks. Enhanced security, available as the “Security Upgrade”...

Overview Redundant Architecture The Wide Bank 28 DS3 multiplexer uses two DS3 processors, which handle the DS3 interfaces, and a backplane bus that accesses the low-speed interfaces. It also contains up to seven active low-speed circuit boards and one optional spare circuit board that connect to the low-speed interfaces.
0.875" Front cover is removable (See Chapter 10) All cards are removed Rack and wall-mounting from front of unit holes (See Chassis Mounting (See Chapter 10) in Chapter 4) Wide Bank 28 DS3 - Release 2.4 July 2004...
DS3 Connectors. There are four DS3 connections: Primary (Active) in and out, and Secondary (Protection) in and out, which make up two DS3 ports. Each Controller card has a single DS3 interface, so the Wide Bank 28 DS3 must have two Controller cards installed to have two DS3 ports available.
Page 43
The contacts can be programmed to be normally open or normally closed. One cable connector, which can be wired to externally-powered alarm monitor or indicator, is provided with each Wide Bank 28 DS3. For wiring information, see External Alarm Wiring on page 5-12.
DS3 Multiframe Structure ... 2-9 The Wide Bank 28 DS3 can be configured for either M23 or C-bit framing. The major difference between M23 framing and C-bit parity framing is that M23 framing uses the C-bits to indicate stuffing, while C-bit parity framing does not.
Figure 2-2 shows how the frame is structured with the C-bits highlighted. Figures 2-5 through 2-8 provide details about the individual subframes. M Subframe = 680 bits M Frame = 4760 bits Figure 2-2 Multiframe Structure Wide Bank 28 DS3 - Release 2.4 July 2004...

... 9-16 Connecting and Configuring for TL1 The Wide Bank 28 DS3 supports TL1 remote management and TL1 automatic messages. You can establish a TL1 session through a TCP connection to the Ethernet TCP port, the Asynchronous RS- 232 TL1 port, or a terminal-to-terminal session when running in C-bit framing mode.
6-15. Setting the Network/Prompt/Source/Target Identifier It is recommended that each Wide Bank 28 DS3 be assigned a network identifier for management and identification purposes. This is particularly important when many units are being managed over TCP/IP from a single server. In large networks a unique network identifier can be used to identify each unit for domain name IP address lookup.
TL1 password will start a TL1 session with administrator privileges to add other users. Activating a TL1 User Session The Wide Bank 28 DS3 can accommodate up to five TL1 user sessions simultaneously: 1. One session through the 25-pin RS-232 (TL1) port.
Users can be deleted only from an administrator session. Use the dlt-user-secu command: DLT-USER-SECU:MULTIPLEXER-1:UserName:1; NOTE: If there is only one administrator in the user database, that user cannot be deleted. Wide Bank 28 DS3 - Release 2.4 July 2004 9-13...
