3.5.1.8 SDM-6000
Emulation Operation
The SDM-6000 Emulation allows the SLM-3650 to be compatible with the SDM-6000
remote protocol. This modem type is used for mixing SLM-3650 modems with
SDM-6000 modems that are in service, allowing the user to:
•
Add a SLM-3650 to a rack of SDM-6000s with a protection switch.
•
Replace an SDM-6000 requiring service with SLM-3650.
•
Use SLM-3650 as the backup modem for a rack containing a mix of SLM-3650
and SDM-6000 modems.
The SDM-6000 Emulation can be an open or closed network application. If SDM-6000
application requires the use of IDR, IBS, D&I, or ASYNC overhead, then the Overhead
PCB must be installed in the SLM-3650, and the applicable FAST option shall be
enabled using the front panel.
Refer to Table 3-11 for SDM-6000 emulation parameter setting.
