64 Port
E1 GROOMER
Hi-Z Non-Intrusive
Hi-Impedance Monitoring Solution
Product
Description
The 64
Port E1 VCL-MegaConnect Groomer is suitable for non-intrusive
monitoring of upto 30, "live" E1 traffic links, bidirectionally
(i.e. in both transmit and receive directions through it's 60 E1
receivers) through a high impedance (Hi-Z) path. Additionally
the equipment also provides 4 E1 ports that shall connect the
aggregated time-slots which have been non-intrusively
"monitored" from the 30, "live" E1 traffic links to the test
equipment protocol analysers / test probes etc. The 64 Port E1 VCL-MegaConnect
Groomer offers
bidirectional monitoring
and
unidirectional monitoring modes.
The
VCL-MegaConnectTM, 64 Port E1 Groomer, occupies only a 6U high
rack-space, and is a compact 19-inch stand-alone unit. The unit
operates on a -48V DC input power-supply. An AC input adapter is
also optionally available for AC mains operation. The equipment
is provided with both, RS-232 Serial Interface for COM Port
connection and as well as a TCP / IP LAN Interface (10BaseT) for
providing equipment access through Telnet over a LAN / TCP / IP
link. The user may select and
use either of these ports for executing HyperTerminal text commands for
configuration etc. The access for configuration and system
management is provided through CLI (Command Line Interface) text
commands which may be executed either from a serial (COM) Port
of a PC, or through the TCP / IP 10 / 100BaseT LAN Interface.
The 10 / 100BaseT LAN
Interface allows the equipment to be connected on a TCP / IP network
for remote access for configuration and monitoring over LAN / TCP / IP
link, remotely. The system is also supplied with an easy to use
Windows (95, 98, Me, XP) Graphical User Interface that provides the
user a complete control to prepare multiple configuration "maps" and
store them. Dry contact relay alarm output is also available at rear
of the system to connect the system to external audio/visual alarm
output though a dry relay contact
Bidirectional Monitoring
In bidirectional mode
the groomer is capable of non-intrusively monitoring upto 30 "live"
E1 links and then groom the selected time-slots to the 4 E1 Ports
provided in the equipment. The 60, E1 receivers of the groomer shall
connect to the 30, E1 "live traffic" links which are to be
monitored, non-intrusively.
The Groomer is capable
of monitoring a -20dBdsx (0.3Volt Pulse) E1 signal through a Hi-Z
path, without in any way affecting or disturbing the "live" E1
traffic that is required to be monitored.
The equipment offers the
user with complete flexibility to choose and select time-slots from
each of the 30 E1 links that are being monitored, without limitation
or restrictions, through the internal TSI non-blocking switch (data
received by the equipment's 60 E1 receivers) and then aggregate the
selected time-slots to the 4 E1 ports that shall connect to the test
equipment, such as protocol analysers / test probes, billing servers
etc.
Unidirectional Monitoring
In unidirectional mode
the Groomer is capable of non-intrusively monitoring upto 60 "live"
E1 links and then groom the selected time-slots to the 4 E1 Port
provided in the equipment. The 60, E1 receivers of the Groomer shall
connect to the 60, E1 "live traffic" links which are to be
monitored, non-intrusively.
