Canadian Equipment Limitations
The Industry Canada Certification label identifies certified equipment. This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements. The Department of Commerce does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user's satisfaction.
Before installing this equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible to be connected to the facilities of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable method ofconnection. In some cases, thecompany's inside wiring associated witha single line individual service may be extended by means of a certified connector assembly (tele­phone extension cord). The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment should be made by an authorized Canadian maintenance facility designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause to request the user to disconnect the equipment.
Users should ensure for their own protection that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines and internal metallic waterpipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the appropriate electric inspection authority, or an electrician, as appropriate.
The Load Number (LN) assigned to each terminal device denotes the percentage of the total load to be connected to a telephone loop which is used by the device, to prevent overloading. The ter­mination on a loop may consist of any combination of devices subject only to the equipment that the total of the LNs of all devices does not exceed 100.
The ringer equivalence number (REN) assigned to each terminal adapter is used to determine the total number of devices that may be connected to each circuit. The sum of the RENs from all devices in the circuit should not exceed a total of 5.0.

1. T1 RCU MODULE OVERVIEW

The T1 Router Control Unit is a dual board assembly that includes a T1 network interface, DSX-1 PBX interface, Nx56/64 V.35interface, andbuilt-in IP router. The T1 RCU canprovision, test, and provide status for any card in the channel bank.The faceplate has a DB-9 and Ethernet LEDs. Six access slots allow the user to combine a variety of voice and data services. Up to sixQuad FXS or Quad FXO access modules can be installed to support up to 24 analog voice lines. Other acc ess modules for data applications include the OCU DP and ISDN U-BR1TE. The two remaining access slots support special function cards such as the Echo Canceller Module and the ADPCM compression card.
Used alone, the T1 RCU supports TDM-based applications. Voice over packet/cell applications require that Echo Cancellation techniques be applied to the voice traffic to achieve high quality voice.With the T1 RCU, a separate Echo Canceller Module (see the Echo Canceller User Interface Guide, document number 61200384L1-31) must be installed in the special slots (A and B) to accommodate these applications. This module cancels echoes for upto 24 voice ports. It is available with and without Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation (ADPCM).
The T1 RCU can operatein three different modes, d epending upon the firmwareloaded: Channel Bank,Switchboard, and Voice over ATM (with the Echo Canceller). Firmware can be updated byusing XMODEM transfer protocol via the base unit’s using XMODEM on page 53 and Appendix B. Updating TA 850 Firmware using TFTP on page 57 for more informa-
tion.)

CRAFT
port connection, dual bantam jack connection, plusnetwork, V.35,
Only the first two dipswitches on the RCU are used.With the first dip switch down (to the right of the unitif you are facingit), the unit boots up in a mode to update the firmware. With the second dip switch down, the unit factory defaults at startup.
The terminal menu is the access point to all other operations. Each terminal menu item has several functions and sub­menusthatidentify and provide access to specificoperationsandparameters.These menu selections are describedlater in this User Interface Guide.
See Appendix C for instructions about navigating the terminal menus.

2. VOICE OVER ATM OVERVIEW

Voice over ATM (VoATM) is the technology used to transmit voice conversations over a data network using Asyn­chronous Transfer Mode (ATM). There are several potential benefits to moving voice over a data network usingATM. First, the small, fixed-length cells require lower processing overhead. Second, these small, fixed-length cells allow higher transmissionspeeds than traditional packet switching methods.
ATM allocates bandwidth on demand,makingit suitable forhigh-speed connection of voice,data, and video services. Conventional networks carrydata in a synchronous manner. Becauseempty slots are circulating evenwhen the linkis not needed, network capacity is wasted. ATM automatically adjusts the network capacity to meet the system needs.

3. VOICE OVER ATM APPLICATION

You can upgrade the T1 RCU for VoATM by adding the Echo Canceller (see the Echo Canceller User Interface Guide, document number61200384L1-31).The Echo Cancelleris used inATM voiceapplications that requireG.168
echo cancellation. The RCU must be using Voice Over ATM firmware to be able to use this module. The module is available with and without ADPCM.
Figure 1 shows a typicalVoATM application. The TA 850 connects to the ATM Network to provide both voice and high speed data from a single platform.

4. INSTALLING A MODULE

After installing the TA 850 Base Unit and connecting the required cables, you can install necessary modules.
TA 850
Remove the 20 Hz fuse before exposing backplane or accessing channel units.
Electronic modules can be damaged by s tatic electrical discharge. Before handling modules, wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic components.Place modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is electrically grounded.
Individual access modules insert from the front. A lockingbar holds the modules in place for added security. Disen­gaging the captured screw allows removal of the locking bar. All wiring connections terminate on the backplane.

>Upgrade Firmware

Updates firmware when TA 850 enhancements are released. Two transfer methods are available for use inupdating the TA 850 system controller.
Transfer Method
The two methods for upgrading are XMODEM and TFTP. (See Appendix A. Updating TA 850 Firmware using XMODEM on page 53 and Appendix B. Updating TA 850 Firmware using TFTP on page 57 for more
information.) TFTP requires a TFTP server running somewhere on t he network. The TA 850 starts a TFTP client functionwhich gets the upgrade code from the TFTP server. SelectingXMODEM will load the upgrade code through the
CRAFT
port using any PC terminal emulator with xmodem capability.
TFTP Server Address
This is required when the transfer methodis TFTP. It is the IP address or domain name (ifDNS is config­ured) of the TFTP server.
TFTP Server Filename
This is required when the transfer method is TFTP. It is the case-sensitive file name which contains the upgrade code.
Transfer Status
This appears when TFTP is used. It displays the statusof the transfer as it happens. Any error or success message will be displayed here.

Proxy ARP
This feature allows the network portionof a group of addresses to be shared among several physical network segments. The ARP protocol provides a way for devices to create a mapping between physical addresses and logical IP addresses. Proxy ARP makes use of this mapping feature byinstructing a router toanswer ARP requests as a "proxy" for the IP addresses behind one of its ports. The device which sent the ARP request will then correctly assume that it can reach the requested IP address by sending packets to the physical address that was returned. This technique effectively hides the fact that a network has been (further) subnetted. If this option is set to Y
ES
, when an ARP request is received on the Ethernet port the address is looked up in the IP routing table. If the forwarding port isnot on the Ethernet port and the route is not the default route, the 850 will answer the request with its own hard­ware address.

By enabling port translation, IP packets are modified as they pass through this interface. During transmis­sion, private addresses are translated into a single public (NAPT) IP address. Incomingpackets are translated from the public toprivate addressbased on the protocol port numbers.Once enabled, you must set up NAT for use.
The port translation requires at least a single real IP address for translating. This value can use the IP as­signed to the interface (or assigned via layer 2 proto­col like PPP), obtained using DHCP client, or staticallyspecifiedon this menu. If the address cannot be learned, then it mustbe specified in order for the translation to work.
Add translation entries to "fine tune" specialproto­cols or specify private addresses.
The public IP address used for this translation entry can be theNAPT IP addressassigned tothe link or canbe specified.You specifyanaddress to direct packets with certain protocols to different servers.

certain protocols and ports to specific servers in the private network. Likewise, internal hosts can be steered to certain servers on the public network. A new request from the public network matching this entry’s public parameters will be dropped ifthis mode is set to A

The TA 850 supports firmware updating using XMODEM transfer protocol via the base unit’s DEM is found in the VT 100 terminal emulation application in the ADTRAN Utilities package and in most PC VT 100 communications software packages.
Make certain that the communications softwarepackage being used has flow control turned off.
Before beginning this procedure, you must obtain the appropriate update file from ADTRANTechnical Support at (888) 4ADTRAN (423-8726).
An XMODEM download can be initiated by enabling the appropriate dip switch or by using the console menus. The following materials are required.

Before handling modules, wear an antistatic discharge wrist strap to prevent damage to electronic components.Place modules in antistatic packing material when transporting or storing. When working on modules, always place them on an approved antistatic mat that is electrically grounded.

Updating Firmware via the Dip Switch

Perform the Steps Below in the Order Listed
1. Using a VT 100 terminal emulation communication software package which contains XMO­DEM protocol support, log in toTA 850. Set the transmit rate of the emulation software to 9600 baud.
