G.703 CODIRECTIONAL CONVERTER
2. Introduction
2.1 Functional Description
The G.703 Codirectional Converter converts the CCITT G.703 codirectional
interface to standard data-communication interfaces. The Converter can
perform two conversions:
• Electrical Conversion — from G.703 to CCITT V.35, V.36/V.11
(EIA RS-449/422), X.21/V.11, or EIA RS-530
• Data-Rate Conversion — from 64 kbps to 48 or 56 kbps, when required
The electrical and rate conversions enable you to connect DCE devices to
PCM transmission equipment.
The Converter is field-selectable for either V.35 or V.11 electrical standards.
The interface connector for either V.35 or V.11 is a 25-pin D-type (“DB25”)
connector. If you select V.11, you’ll need the appropriate cable to implement
the V.36, X.21, or EIA RS-530 standard.
Operating full-duplex at a transmission rate of 64 kbps, the Converter has
a range of up to 800 meters (1⁄2
mile) from the PCM equipment. The unit’s
receive-timing source is the recovered clock from the CCITT G.703 receive
pair. You can
set a jumper to select any one of these transmit-timing sources:
• Recovered clock from the received pair;
• External timing from the V.11 or V.35 digital interface; or
• Internal timing (used only for testing and diagnostics).
Two internal 16-bit buffers accommodate the difference in clocking phase.
Figure 2-1 below shows a typical application of the G.703 Codirectional
Converter. The Converter can act as a data-rate adapter, allowing you to
connect DTEs running at 48 or 56 kbps to a 64-kbps G.703-interface line.
At 48 or 56 kbps, you can set another jumper to select any one of these
ways to use the extra bandwidth:
• To guarantee the satisfaction of the “ones density” requirement,
by placing a “1” after every seven bits.
• To pass a control signal end-to-end
• As a 1200-bps asynchronous secondary sub-channel for connecting
additional DTE units over the same link.

CHAPTER 2: Introduction
Figure 2-1. Typical G.703 Codirectional Converter application.
The Converter also provides diagnostic capabilities with analog and digital
loopbacks. Both loops are activated by the front-panel pushbuttons. You can
use the Converter’s front-panel LEDs to continuously monitor the main
channel’s activity and synchronization.
2.2 Timing Theory
2.2.1 CCITT G.703 S
IGNALING
The CCITT G.703 codirectional signal is made up of two balanced signals:
The receive and transmit signals carry timing and data information.
The clock signal associated with each direction of transmission travels
in the same direction as the data signal (see Figure 2-2).

ODIRECTIONALTIMING
The G.703 Codirectional Converter can support virtually all timing options
that you might need, as described and illustrated in this section.
G.703 Receive Timing Used for G.703 Transmit Timing
When G.703 receive timing is used for G.703 transmit timing, three timing
options for the data-communication side, associated with the loopback timing
(LBT) on the G.703 side, are available:
• Receive Clock and Transmit Clock are both outputs from the Converter,
which serves as a DCE (see Figure 2-3).
• Receive Clock and Transmit Clock are both inputs to the Converter
(with X.21 interface only), which serves as a DTE (see Figure 2-4).
• Receive Clock is an output from the Converter, while Transmit Clock
is an input to the Converter from an external DCE, for connection to
a tail circuit (see Figure 2-5).

Transmit-Clock Timing Mode
When you use the external transmit clock on the data-communications side
for G.703 transmit timing, there is complete independence, within the G.703
Codirectional Converter, between the receive and the transmit directions of
transmission. Figure 2-6 shows this timing mode.
Internal-Clock Timing Mode
The Converter’s internal oscillator is usually used as the source for G.703
transmit timing for testing purposes only, but can also be used with systems
that do not have a clock source. Figure 2-7 shows this timing mode.
