Dte Connections - Paradyne COMSPHERE 3610 Quick Reference Manual

DTE Connections

Make the DTE connections as described in the User's Guide.
In a TDM or MCMP application, all ports default to EIA-232 port interface operation. For
MCMP/TDM Flex, Ports 1 through 6 can be set individually to EIA-232 or V.35 by using
the MUX port configuration options.
For an EIA-232 connection with distances greater than 50 feet or data rates higher than
19.2 kbps, use short, high quality cable with low capacitance and a DTE capable of
supporting the distance and data rate.
When Port 1 requires a speed higher than 19.2 kbps, it is recommended that the port
interface be set to V.35. An interconnect cable is required for every port (2 through 6)
that is set to V.35 interface.
Reconfiguring Ports
If you have a MCMP/TDM Flex with a firmware version 6.33 or greater, you can
configure each port for either EIA-232 or V.35 interface compatibility from the front
panel, an async terminal, or an NMS.
To set a port for EIA-232 or V.35 operation:
