CHAPTER This chapter describes the PA-4EG port adapter and contains the following sections: Port Adapter, page - Interface Specifications, page - LEDs, page -4 Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts, page -4 Port Adapter Slot Locations on the Supported Platforms, page -7 Identifying Interface Addresses, page -9 Port Adapter The PA-4EG, shown in Figure - and Figure -, provides up to four E synchronous serial interfaces, which are compatible with and specified by G.7/G.74. The PA-4EG network interfaces provide a connection between standard serial interfaces such as V. to telephone lines or Post, Telephone, and Telegraph (PTT) networks. Each PA-4EG interface operates in full-duplex mode at E (.48 Mbps) speed. The PA-4EG interfaces do not operate in the data terminal equipment (DTE) and data communications equipment (DCE) modes that are typical of data communications interfaces. The PA-4EG interfaces operate with either a line-recovered or an internal clock signal. The default is for a line clock signal that the interface recovers from the received data stream. The interface can also operate with an internal clock signal. The PA-4EG generates the internal clock signal; the interface does not use the motherboard or system clock.

Interface Specifications Chapter Figure - PA-4EG -Ohm, Balanced (Front Panel View) LA RA LA RA LA RA E G.7/G.74- OHM LA RA H967 Features The PA-4EG provides the following features and capabilities: Provides framed and unframed service access, E (.48 Mbps) line speeds over unbalanced 7-ohm or balanced -ohm cable, with -pin, D-shell (DB-) receptacles on the port adapter Operates over E leased-line services, and provides ITU-T G.7 with high-density bipolar of order (HDB) line encoding Operates with either an external or internal clock signal, and runs at wire speed Provides for local and remote loopback testing services Allows you to fractionalize a data stream into a single channel from 64 kilobits per second (kbps) to 984 kbps Provides G.74 framing for n x 64-kbps service support (where n = to ) Support for 4-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC4) to provide and ensure data integrity Support for point-to-point connections to supported platforms Eliminates the need for a separate, external data termination unit that is typically used to convert standard serial interfaces, such as V., to E-G.7/G.74 Note PA-4EGs are available as spare parts PA-4EG-(=) and PA-4EG-7(=). Interface Specifications Each PA-4EG interface is available in either balanced (-ohm) or unbalanced (7-ohm) mode; a unique port adapter supports each type. Neither the balanced and unbalanced modes nor the balanced and unbalanced cables are interchangeable; you cannot configure a balanced port to support an unbalanced line, nor can you attach an interface cable intended for a balanced line to an unbalanced port. Balanced interfaces typically use three conductors and three signal states: high, low, and ground. The high and low signals mirror each other. Unbalanced interfaces use only two signals: signal and ground. You can discover the mode of each interface by examining the agency approval label on each port adapter, or by using the show controller cbus command. Following is an example of discovering whether the PA-4EG is in balanced or unbalanced mode: Router# show controllers cbus Serial//, applique is G.7 Unbalanced [remainder of displayed text omitted from example] Serial//, applique is G.7 Unbalanced [remainder of displayed text omitted from example] The PA-4EG interface is divided into time slots or frames. (See Figure -.) - OL-6-
Chapter Interface Specifications Figure - Time Slot Diagram,48 Mbps 64 kbps time slots = 6 bits 8 bits Time slot 8 9 H4 Each of the time slots is an 8-bit frame that transmits data at 64 kbps. Each of these time slots can be configured to carry data or to remain empty. (The PA-4EG inserts an idle pattern into empty time slots.) Time slot, or the first 8 bits, is reserved as overhead. The remaining 48 bits ( frames with 8 bits each) are designated time slots through. Time slot 6 is also designated as a framing slot when using framed mode. When you use framed mode (G.74), you can configure time slot 6 to carry data and operate as any of the other slots; therefore, in framed mode time slot must be designated as a framing signal; time slot 6 can be configured for either data or framing. With framed mode (G.74) you can specify a bandwidth for the interface by designating of the time slots for data and reserving time slot for framing (timing). When you use framed mode, you must designate start and stop time slots; the slots within the start and stop boundaries are used for data, and the remaining slots are left idle. For example, on an interface with framing set on time slots through 8, the interface carries data within the specified 8 frames, and frames 9 through remain idle. Because each time slot transmits at 64 kbps, the interface operates at kbps (8 frames x 64 kbps = kbps). By configuring 6 of the time slots to carry data and the other 6 to remain empty, you can essentially configure the interface for.4 Mbps (by leaving half the time slots empty and unable to carry data). The system inserts an idle pattern into unused time slots to identify them as overhead (unused for data). Only one contiguous time slot range can be used. In Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX) systems, time slot 6 is always left unused. By default, time slot 6 is not enabled for data in the PA-4EG interface. The command ts6 overrides the default and enables time slot 6 to carry data. Unframed mode (G.7) uses all time slots for data. None of the time slots are used for framing signals. This allows each of the time slots to transmit at 64 kbps; therefore, time slots x 64 kbps =.48 Mbps. While unframed mode is the default, you can also specify unframed mode with the command timeslot -, which specifies time slot as the start slot with no stop (ending) time slot; therefore, all slots are used for data. The no timeslot command restores the default of unframed mode. Framed mode supports a 4-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC4), which you enable with a software command. The default is for no CRC. Note The E-G.7/G.74 interface on PA-4EG is compliant with BABT. For more information about CRC4 with a PA-4EG on a VIP, Cisco 7 series router, Cisco 7 series router, or Cisco ubr7 series router, refer to Chapter 4, Configuring the PA-4EG. OL-6- -
LEDs Chapter LEDs The PA-4EG has one row of three status LEDs for each port and one LED. (See Figure -4.) The green- and amber-colored LED for each port indicates port status. Figure -4 PA-4EG LEDs Partial Front-Panel View LA RA H96 After system initialization, the LED goes on to indicate that the port adapter has been enabled for operation. The following conditions must be met before the PA-4EG is enabled: The PA-4EG is correctly connected and receiving power. A valid system software image for the port adapter has been downloaded successfully. The system recognizes the PA-4EG or a VIP with a PA-4EG. If any of the above conditions are not met, or if the initialization fails for other reasons, the enabled LED does not go on. Table - lists port LED colors and indications. Table - PA-4EG LEDs LED Label Color State Meaning Enabled () Green On Port adapter is enabled for operation. Loopback () Amber On Line or local loopback is active. Local alarm (LA) Amber On A loss of signal (LOS), a loss of frame (LOF), an alarm indication signal (AIS), or any combination of these is detected. Remote alarm (RA) Amber On A remote source indicates an error on its incoming signal. Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts This section describes the port adapter cables for data communications and the PA-4EG interfaces. Each PA-4EG provides up to four -pin, D-shell (DB-) receptacles, which support only E-G.7/G.74 interfaces. The PA-4EGs use a DB- receptacle for both the balanced and unbalanced ports. The label on the port adapter indicates if the ports on that port adapter are 7-ohm or -ohm. (See Figure - and Figure -.) -4 OL-6-
Chapter Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts The port adapter end of all E-G.7/G.74 adapter cables is a DB- connector. At the network end, the adapter cable for unbalanced (7-ohm) connections uses a BNC connector. The adapter cables for balanced (-ohm) connections use DB-, twinaxial, or RJ-4 connections to accommodate connection standards in different countries. Note You must connect the correct type of interface cable for the port to operate. Warning It is a requirement of the statutory approval of the E-G.7/G.74 interface that the jackscrews of the connector backshell are securely screwed down while the port adapter is operating. Cables for balanced and unbalanced mode are available with the following types of network-end connectors: Unbalanced (7-ohm) coaxial cables with BNC connectors at the network end, which are used primarily for connection in the United Kingdom. (See Figure -.) Figure - E-G.7/G.74 Interface Cable for Unbalanced Connections with BNC Connectors and Coaxial Cables Balanced (-ohm) cable with a DB- connector at the network end. (See Figure -6.)

Identifying Interface Addresses This section describes how to identify interface addresses for the PA-4EG in supported platforms. Interface addresses specify the actual physical location of each interface on a router or switch. Interfaces on a PA-4EG installed in a router maintain the same address regardless of whether other port adapters are installed or removed. However, when you move a port adapter to a different slot, the first number in the interface address changes to reflect the new port adapter slot number. Interfaces on a PA-4EG installed in a VIP maintain the same address regardless of whether other interface processors are installed or removed. However, when you move a VIP to a different slot, the interface processor slot number changes to reflect the new interface processor slot. OL-6- -9

Cisco 7 Series Routers VIP Interface Addresses In Cisco 7 series routers, port adapters are installed on a versatile interface processor (VIP), which installs in interface processor slots through 4 (depending on the number of slots in the router). The port adapter can be installed in either bay (port adapter slot or ) on the VIP. See Figure -8, Figure -9, and Figure - The interface address for the VIP is composed of a three-part number in the format interface-processor-slot-number/port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table -. The first number identifies the slot in which the VIP is installed (slot through 4, depending on the number of slots in the router). The second number identifies which bay on the VIP the port adapter is installed ( or ). The bays are numbered from left to right on the VIP. The third number identifies the physical port number (interface port number) on the port adapter. The port numbers always begin at and are numbered from left to right. The number of additional ports depends on the number of ports on the port adapter. The PA-4EG is a four-port port adapter, therefore the port can be through. For example, if the four-port PA-4EG is installed in a VIP in interface processor slot, port adapter slot, the interface addresses would be //, //. //, and // (interface processor slot, port adapter slot, and interfaces,,, and ). Note Although the processor slots in the 7-slot Cisco 7 are vertically oriented and those in the -slot Cisco 7 are horizontally oriented, all Cisco 7 series routers use the same method for processor slot and interface port numbering.
