This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy, and if not
installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions, may cause interference to radio communication. It has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for a Class A computing device in accordance
with the specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are designed to
provide reasonable protection against such interference when the equipment is
operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause interference, in which case the user at his own
expense will be required to take whatever measures may be necessary to correct
the interference.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

CHAPTER 2: Introduction
2. Introduction
2.1 Functional Description
The G.703 Codirectional Converter converts the ITU-TSS (CCITT) G.703
codirectional (line) interface to standard data-communication interfaces. The
Converter can perform two conversions:
• Electrical Conversion — from G.703 to ITU-TSS V.35,
V.36/V.11 (EIA RS-
449/422/423),
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.
Different models of the Converter have different interface connectors
depending on which data-commu-nication interface they support:
•
Models whose product codes in-
clude “-449” support EIA RS-422/
423/ITUTSS V.11 signaling on the EIA RS-449/ITU-TSS V.36 physical interface.
The interface connector mounted on these
units is an RS-530 DB25 (see
the
next paragraph); an included adapter cable patches these to a
37-pin
D-subminiature (“DB37”)
female interface connector.
• Models whose product codes include “-530” support the EIA RS-530
physical/electrical interface (with ITU-TSS V.11-compatible signal levels);
they have a 25-pin D-subminiature (“DB25”) female interface connector.
• Models whose product codes include “-V35” support the ITU-TSS V.35
physical/ electrical interface; they have a 34-pin M-block (“M/34”) female
interface connector.
• Models whose product codes include “-X21” support
ITU-TSS V.11 signaling on the ITU-TSS X.21 physical interface; they have
a 15-pin D-subminiature (“DB15”) female interface connector.
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 data-communication (DTE) interface; or
• Internal timing (used only for testing and diagnostics).
Two internal 16-bit buffers accommodate the difference in clocking phase.
12
G.703 CODIRECTIONAL CONVERTER
Figure 2-1 below shows a typical application of the G.703 Codirectional
Converter.
Figure 2-1. Typical G.703 Codirectional Converter application.
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,
depending on what you do or don’t connect to the Converters’ Request to
Send and Carrier Detect leads, you can use the extra bandwidth in any of
these ways:
• Nothing connected to Converter RTS (56 kbps only): To guarantee the
satisfaction of the “ones density” requirement, by placing a “1” after every
seven bits.
• Devices’ RTS connected to Converters’ RTS, and DCD to DCD: To pass a
control signal (RTS/DCD) end-to-end.
• Async devices’ Transmit Data to Converters’ RTS, and Receive Data to
CTS: As a 1200-bps asynchronous secondary channel for connecting
additional DTE units over the same link.
You can use the Converter’s front-panel LEDs to continuously monitor the
main channel’s activity and synchronization.
The Converter provides V.54 diagnostic capabilities with local digital and
analog and remote digital loopbacks. All three loops can be activated by
pressing front-panel pushbuttons; the latter two can be activated by raising
the appropriate interface signal from the local DTE.
Another of the front-panel pushbuttons triggers an internal 511-bit pseudorandom V.52 test pattern for direct end-to-end integrity testing. The ERR LED
flashes for each each error detected.

CHAPTER 2: Introduction
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 below).
Figure 2-2. G.703 Codirectional Converter signaling.
2.2.2 G.703 C
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 on the next page).
• X.21 interface only: Receive Clock and Transmit Clock are both inputs to
the Converter, which serves as a DTE (see Figure 2-4 on the next page).
• 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 on page 15).

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 on the next page 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 on the next page shows this timing
mode.
