Port-1, Port-2, Port-3 or Port-4
Selecting the
Port-
X (X=1,2,3 or 4) parameter displays a list Port parameters for
the selected port and their current values. The port parameters are:
•
Card-Type
(Read-only).
•
Mode
•
Rate
(Note that the
Rate
parameter does not appear when the
VersaMux is in Port Relay Mode)
•
OW-Filter
(appears for the Combination Module Only)
NOTE:
Since a parameter value has an affect on the other parameters, we highly
recommend that you configure the port parameters in the order listed above
(
Mode
then
Rate
then
OW-Filter
).
provides descriptions for the
Port-
X (1, 2, 3 and 4) parameters and
options.

Port Parameter and Option Descriptions
Parameter
Options and Description
Card-Type
The card type (Fiber/Cu) will be displayed.
NOTE:
Release 1.0 software supports only the Combo module as a user interface.
Mode
The
Mode
parameter specifies the interface type used for the port interface. Values for
the
Mode
parameter are:
Disabled
- This option disables the Port(s) on the Card.
Cu-CDI
- This option sets the Combo Card to use the Copper CDI interface.
Fiber-CV
- This option sets the Combo Card to use the optical port interface operating
“unframed” (CV mode). Use this option when the Port is connected to a CDI or
Manchester encoded (unframed) signal on the optical interface such as a CV-8448 or a
CV-FOM-D/CV-HTU-16M with its
Fiber-Encoding
parameter set to
CV
.
Fiber-FOM
- This option sets the Combo Card to use the optical port interface
operating in a “framed” format compliant with JTC3A-9109C. Use this option when the
Port is connected to a framed signal on the optical interface such as a MD1272/G,
GSC-54, or a CV-FOM-D/CV-HTU-16M with its
Fiber-Encoding
parameter set to
FOM
.
