Product Description
The TC8619 is a 4 Channel Ethernet-over-T1/E1 multiplexer with built-in power
redundancy.
TC8619 can support either T1 or E1 upon the order.
Extensive diagnostics include DIP switches for T1/E1 Loopback and other
application configuration switches. Each unit also provides multiple LEDs for
Alarm, Power, Vcc, T1/E1 Status, and Link and Duplex LEDs for each channel.
The built-in sync mechanism verifies both device and T1/E1 link operation. No
other test equipment is required for link and device verification.
The TC8619 is compatible with standard 100
Ω
T1 for copper line lengths up to
6000ft and up to 2.5km for 75
Ω
/ 120
Ω
E1 (copper line length is the distance
between the TC8619 and the T1/E1 cross-connect). The T1/E1 uses an RJ-48
connector and the Ethernet channels use RJ-48 connectors. Optional BNC adapter
cable is available for 75 Ohm E1. Power is 12VDC standard or optional 24VDC,
-48VDC, 125VDC, or 115/230VAC with an external power cube. Optionally, a high
temperature version (-20°C to 70°C) and extreme temperature version (-40°C to
80°C) are also available.
