Product Description
The Model 681 for T1 and the Model 682 for E1 provide high speed transmission
of synchronous data over distances greater than 12,000 feet with an
exceptionally high degree of data reliability. This is accomplished
by using 2B1Q signaling technology. Real life networks are not ideal
but the 2B1Q line code reduces crosstalk and allows signals to be transmitted
over much longer distances without repeaters or the removal of bridge
taps. Since no conditioning of transmission lines is necessary when
HDSL is used the Model 681/681 represents a plug and play solution for
using copper lines for high speed data transmission and Internet access.
Equipment setup can be performed from the front panel using the LCD
display and cursor controls or via a DB-9, RS-232 based, supervisory
port on the rear of the HDSL modem. Use of the supervisory port does
not require the LCD or the front panel switches. Setup includes the
ability of configuring the device as a HTU-C or a HTU-R, initiating
loopbacks and performing noise margin tests. The setup is stored in
non-volatile memory and used as the default setup when the device is
repowered. The setup can be changed at any time and the new setup becomes
the default.
The diagnostic capability of the Model 681/682 includes both local and
remote loopback tests. In addition to the loopback tests the device
has the ability to perform a noise margin test on the real line. The
results of this test are a digital representation of the received signal
level.
The Model 681/682 is installed at both ends of a data link providing
T1 (1.544 MBPS) or E1 (2.048MBPS) digital connectivity on two pairs
of 22 gauge unconditioned copper wires over a distance of up to 3 miles.
The data interface is V.35 and implemented on a conventional DB-25 connector.
Telebyte offers low cost extension cables that provide the conversion
from DB-25 to M block, 34 pin connector required for V.35 equipment.
