Equipment interconnection points
Interconnection points of the system are defined as follows:
SELV for the user, T1, E1, and serial ports on the Speed Touch 591s
TNV for the SHDSL network port on the Speed Touch 591s
TNV can be classified as TNV1, TNV2, or TNV3. TNV1 circuits are telecommunications circuits that have voltages below SELV
limits, may be subject to overvoltages, and can be connected off premises (to an outside plant).
TNV2 circuits are telecommunications circuits that have voltages exceeding SELV limits, are not subject t o overvolt ages, and d o not conne ct off p remises (to an outside plant).
TNV3 circuits are telecommunications circuits that have voltages above SELV limits, may be subject to overvoltages, and can be connected off premises (to an outside plant). The SHDSL network port on the Speed Touch 591s is TNV3.
Connect SELV circuits on this equipment only to other circuits that comply with the requirements of SELV circuits as defined in CSA C22.2 No. 950, UL1950, EN60950, AS/NZS 3260, and IEC950.
Connect TNV circuits on this equi pment only to othe r ci rcuits that comply with the requirements of TNV circuits as defined in CSA C22.2 No. 950, UL1950, EN609 50, AS/NZS 3260, and IEC950.
External power supply
Warning The Speed Touch 591s is intended for use when
powered by an appr opriate external power supply available onl y from Alcatel. The use of any ot her power supply may i nvalidate r egulatory approvals of this equipment.
EMC compliance
EMC compliance may require the use of ferrites, shielded cables, or other special accessories. Where required, these special accessories must be installed per the instructions.
Regulatory symbols
The following sections show examples of generally used regulatory approvals symbols. These symbols may be used on pr oduc t marking s such as a pproval s label s and are described in IEC417.

This certification means that the equipment meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational and safety requirements as prescribed in the Terminal Equipment Technical Requirements document( s) . Indu st ry Canada does not guarantee that the equipme nt 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 loc al telecommuni cations compan y. The equi pment must also be installed using an acceptable method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions may not prevent degradation of service in some situations.
Repairs to certified equipment shoul d be coordina ted by a re presenta tive desig nated 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.
For their own protection, users should make sure that the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe system, if present, are connected together. This precaution may be particularly important in rural areas.
Warning Users should not attempt to make electrical ground
connections; cont act an ele ctri cal i nspect io n autho rity , or elec tric ian, as appropriate.
Note 1 The Ringer Equivalence Number (formerly k nown as Load
Number, see note below) a ssigned to each termi nal device provides an indication of the maximum number of terminals allowed to be connected to a telephone interface. The termination on an interface may consist of any combination of devices, subject only to the requirement that the sum of the Ringer Equivalence Numbers of all the devices does not exceed 5.
The REN for the node is not applicable.
Note 2 As of August 14, 1996, the Load Number has been changed
to Ringer Equivalence Number by Ind ustry Canada, to coi ncide with the FCC of the United S tates for the purpose of country harmonizati on and promoting the goals of NAFTA.

1.1 About SHDSL

DSL technology dramatically increases the digital capacity of ordinary telephone lines (the local co pper loo ps). The sp eeds obt ainabl e using DSL te chn ology ar e tied to the distance between the customer and the Telco central office. The SHDSL variant of DSL technology is designed for business applications, where high speed is required in both transmission dire ctions. SHDSL is a rate-adaptive techn ology, which, unlike ADSL, cannot share lines with analog telephones.
SHDSL provides symmetric DSL d elivery over a single coppe r pair at rat es between 192 kb/s and 2304 kb/s, and a 35% to 50% improvement in distance at a given rate over traditional symmetric DSL. It is a purely digital technique that uses the lower band of frequencies to achieve range performance while maintaining the ability to transmit voice or data services symmetrically.
The narrower frequency band of SHDSL reduces the possibility of interference or crosstalk when it is d epl oye d in the same binder group or cable as other DSL-based services, such as ADSL.
Performance varies with loop cha ract eristic s, such as len gth, wire gau ge, noise, and the number and location of bridged taps and gauge changes. Best performance is obtained on short, clea n loops. The SHDSL bit rate can be configured to adapt to the line conditions.

1.2 Overview of the Speed Touch 591s

The Speed Touch 591s is a device that provides SHDSL access to the ATM core network from customer pre mises. It can be manage d locally usi ng its own NMTI via its serial port, or remotely using the 5620 Network Manager. Four versions of the Speed Touch 591s are available:
frame r elay

1 Introduction
The Speed Touch 591s provides:
a network port (RJ45 connector) for connection to the telephone line
a T1 port (RJ45 connector) for conn ection to data devices or networks (T1 version
only)
an E1 port (RJ45 connector) for connection to data devices or networks (E1
version only)
a user port (DB37 connector) for connection to data devices or networks
a serial port (RJ45 con nect or) for connection to a VT100 termin al f or l ocal node
management sessions
a power cable connector
Note The E1 circuit emulation ver sion of the Speed Touch 591s is
designed for use with 120
/75 twisted pair or coaxial cable adapter must be fitted when
using 75
E1 coaxial cabling.
The Speed Touch 591s has its own NMTI, which can be accessed either locally on the serial port, or remotely using a 5620 Network Manager.
Table 1-1 lists the power requirements for the Speed Touch 591s.

1.3 Compatibility

The Speed Touch 591s is compatible with:
Release 4.1 (and later) of the 5620 Network Manager
Release 1.0 (and later) of the 7350 ASAM
Release 4.1.10 (and later) of the 7300 ASAM
Note The Speed Touch 591s can be mana ged via CPSS us ing the
5620 Network Manager only when it is co nnec te d to a 7350 ASAM. When the Speed Touch 591s is conne cted to a 7300 ASAM, the only management operations that can be carried out are Telnet and software downloads. Software must be downloaded over ATM connections from workstations not running CPSS.
