Configuring T1/E1 LOS threshold
This command takes effect only if the T1/E1 port is configured for
long-haul
applications. It specifies the sen-
sitivity for
Loss Of Signal threshold
. A signal suffers more attenuation over long distances than over short dis-
tances. Therefore the LOS-Threshold must be set higher for longer transmission distances. This command has
a default value of -46dB what should be enough for distances up to 1600 m/5250 ft.
Mode: port e1t1 <slot> <port>
Configuring T1 Loopback detection
In T1 mode the E1/T1 interface module has the capability for autodetection of inband sent loopback codes.
Once a loopback-up code is detected, the module automatically enables the proper loopback function and dis-
ables it a soon as the corresponding loopback-down code appears. This feature is used by carrier equipment for
testing the line to the customer. It sends the loopback-up code to the customer device, then subsequently
starts, for example, a Pseudo Random Bit Sequence (PRBS) to determinate the quality of the connection.
.
Depending on the configured T1 framing, the right loopback code detection mode will be enabled as soon as
the command
loop-back auto-detection
will be executed. For framing type uses a different loop-
back code detection mechanism:
•
ESF: The loopback codes are transmitted via the 4kBit/s EOC-Channel, that is part of the 8kBit/s F-Bit
Channel. The following codes are supported:
•
SF and Unframed: An inband loop code pattern is sent for at least 5 seconds in all 24 timeslots. The follow-
ing codes are supported:
