Cross Connect (X Connect) Page
This page has two primary purposes. One is to determine the priority of TDM interfaces when ACM is
enabled and allocation for the associated TDM interfaces is different from one modulation to another.
The other is to allow a cross-connect function for port assignments from one end of the link to the
other.
Figure 45 Cross Connect (X Connect) page
For the priority selection function, for example, if allocation has been set to carry 16xT1 interfaces
under all conditions except for the lowest modulation setting, where only 4xT1 are allocated, the
priority 1 through 4 ports would remain active in the lowest modulation setting.
For the cross-connect function, the port numbers at both the near-end and far-end are mapped by the
administrator to determine traffic flow through the radio - for example, allowing traffic on Port 1 of
one radio to be virtually connected to Port 11 on the other. This can relieve the need to commission
external cross-connect or channel banks, or relieve an issue with a bad port or bad connection or cable
to a port by re-prioritizing and re-connecting it.
