B. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
7. FUNCTIONAL OPERATION
7.01
HiGain-2 utilizes PairGain’s 2B1Q VHDSL
transceiver systems to establish one full-
duplex 1.568 kbps data channels between the HLU-
611 and a remotely mounted HRU-612 HiGain-2
Remote Unit.

A block diagram of the HLU-611 is shown in
Figure 2. The HiGain-2 HLU-611 receives a
1.544 Mbps DS1 data stream from the DSX-1 digital
cross connect interface. The HLU contains a DS1
frame synchronizer controlled by an 8 bit micro
controller that determines the type of framing on the
DS1 stream and synchronizes to it. The HLU-611
recognizes SF (including D4) or ESF framing. When
the data is unframed, the HLU-611 arbitrarily defines
a frame bit.
