Redundant CPE Applications
The T-APS can be used for switching a T1/EI circuit between two sets of CPE for redundant equipment
operation. The Working Mode selection can be either 1+1, Blind 1 or Blind 2.
In the 1+1 and Blind 1 modes, TX signals from the CO will be present at each of the two CPE devices.
In Blind 2 mode only the current selected working path will see the TX signals. The alternate path will not
provide TX to it’s associated CPE while the Protective Path is working
.
