Document Purpose and Intended Audience This guide contains information needed to set up, configure, and operate the 2-port Hotwire 8786 Time Division Multiplexer Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (TDM SDSL) Termination Unit, and is intended for installers and operators. Document Summary...
About the Hotwire 8786 Termination Unit TDM SDSL Overview Hotwire Time Division Multiplexer Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (TDM SDSL) products maximize customer service areas by varying the DSL line rate. This ensures symmetric DSL connectivity over a wide range of telephone line distances and transmission line qualities.
1. About the Hotwire 8786 Termination Unit Hotwire 8786 Termination Unit Features The 2-port Hotwire 8786 TDM SDSL Termination Unit is a circuit board mounted in a Hotwire 8600 or 8800 Series Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer (DSLAM) and used to transport signals at high speeds over a twisted-pair connection.
Network Configuration Figure 1-1, Sample CO-to-CP using a Hotwire 8786 TDM SDSL Termination Unit for access concentration in a central office (CO). A frame relay switch and a router are connected to partner units through the termination unit, supporting an E1 host or router and frame relay encapsulated or unframed data.
Enterprise MIB – Supports configuration, status, statistics, and tests. SNMP Trap Support The Hotwire 8786 Termination Unit supports traps as defined in RFC 1215. They may include variable-bindings specified in the following MIBs: MIB II (RFC 1573) – Defines the general objects for use with a network management protocol in TCP/IP internets and provides general information about the unit.
