Configuring the Triton T1/E1 Board
Overview of the Triton T1/E1 Board
Through MaxAdministrator, the Triton T1/E1 board can be configured for either digital
T1 CAS (channel associated signaling), T1 PRI (Primary Rate Interface), E1 CAS, or E1
PRI.
Both T1 CAS and T1 PRI carry 24 channels using time-division multiplexing (TDM) at an
overall rate of 1.544 Mbps. Voice T1 provides 24 64K channels with robbed bit signaling.
T1 PRI provides 23 64K channels, using one 64K channel for D channel messaging.
E1 CAS and E1 PRI carry 32 channels using TDM at an overall rate of 2.048 Mbps. Both
of them provide 30 64K channels for voice.
To subscribe to T1 CAS, T1 PRI, E1 CAS, or E1 PRI service, you must supply certain
parameters. These parameters are listed in Appendix B on page 435.
Configuring the Board
Double-click the Triton T1/E1 board in the Boards window to open the Board
Configuration window, similar to Figure 70 on page 140. See attribute descriptions
below Figure 70. Note the following additional information:
•
The Board ID must be in the range 0–7.
• Double-click a channel in the Channel Mapping List to open a trunk configuration
dialog box.
• Double-click a channel group to open a configuration window, discussed in the
following section.
• Clicking the Board Configuration button opens a configuration dialog box that
displays the board’s serial number, DSP clock, physical and logical IDs.
You can configure the board type: either
T1 or E1 to run T1 CAS, T1 PRI, or E1 CAS,
E1 PRI. Additional steps are needed to further configure the CAS or PRI protocol in
the Protocol Configuration window, shown in Figure 77 and Figure 78.
If you change this configuration, you
must restart the switching services
for the change to take effect.
