at either end of the network. This
equipment can also be used with and to meet various application
ETH-16-MLETH-8-ML
requirements.
The Interface Converter is an Ethernet extension device utilizing TDM telecom
ETH-FE1
infrastructure (the telecom network of E1s, or of PDH, SDH and E1/E3/SDH microwave etc. carrying
E1s). It converts the Ethernet data into E1 frame format for transmission over the existing TDM (E1)
links and then re-converts the E1 back into Ethernet data the far-end terminal, to BRIDGE two Ethernet
LANs over the existing E1-based telecom network. The device can effectively utilize the redundant
bandwidth of telecom operators' existing TDM network to transport Ethernet data with low investment.
Application
The equipment may be used for the following purposes:
! Bridging Ethernet LANs over existing TDM (E1) telecom network.
! Extending Ethernet networks utilizing TDM (E1) landline based telecom infrastructure.
! Using telecom network of E1s/PDH/SDH microwave etc. carrying E1s to transport Ethernet data.

Installation and Commissioning
1 Qualifying the network
! Please ensure that the error code rate each of the E1 circuits connecting to the equipment is
lower than 10
-7.
! The transmission time delay difference between the various E1 circuits shall not exceed 8ms.
! The Ethernet wire type shall be, crossover when connecting with PC, and straight through when
connecting to an Ethernet switch/HUB. The length of the ethernet cable shall not exceed 100m.
2 Grounding
! When the device is used with the AC~220V power supply, the 3-core socket must be grounded
for protection.
! The other equipment connected with the converter shall also be grounded to earth for protection.
3 Installation
Step 1: Power up the equipment. Please ensure that equipment is powered-up prior to connecting
the Ethernet and the E1 links.
Step 2: Connect E1 line on the premise that transmission device, interface converter and E th er ne t
converter have safely grounded.
BER test may be conducted on each E1 link using a BERT tester to ensure that the E1 errors
are within the permitted limits / threshold.
Step 3: Please configure the ethernet mode of the Ethernet over E1 equipment at both sides as well
as the ethernet interfaces of the devices that are connected to the Ethernet over E1
equipment. Connect the ethernet links.
The equipment is used to bridge two LANs. Please ensure that the LANs on both sides of the
link are operating in the same IP domain.
Step 4: Ping over the ethernet connection from one side to the other (near-end to the far-end) to
verify that the Ethernet connection has been established between the two LANs.
After succeeding in "ping", the user may also check the integrity of each E1 link by connecting E1 link
and then transporting ethernet data over that E1 link. In the event that the equipment resets repeatedly
or lots of frame errors are noticed, recheck the connection between E1 cable and interface converter,
or E1 cable and transmission device.

E1 Bandwidth Selection
For E1 bandwidth selection, Effective only if the encapsulation mode is set to 'HDLC' (i.e. GFP /
HDLC switch is set to 'ON'), the DIP Switch settings on the right side panel are as follows:
OFF
ON
Working Mode Switch Setting
TS0 TS1-15, 17-31 TS16
Unframed / PCM 31 ON ON ON
Framed (CCS) / PSM 31 OFF Occupied timeslot ON
Multi Framed (CAS) / PCM 30 OFF Occupied timeslot ON OFF
Effective only if the encapsulation mode is set to ‘HDLC’. GFP/HDLC switch is set to ‘ON’
Example 1: If you wish to use only first 5 time slots then you need to set the TS0 time slots to OFF
and switch TS1 to TS5 to ON and time slot TS16 will be set to ON.
Example 2: If you wish to carry first 8 time slots on 512Kbps, then you need to set the TS0 time slot
OFF and switch TS1 to TS8 to ON (i.e. since each time slot consumes 64Kbps, so 8
time slots will consume 8 x 64Kbps = 512Kbps) and time slot S16 will be set to ON.
Example 3: If you wish to carry 20 time slots on 1.28Mbps (64Kbps x 20) then you need to
set time slot TS0 OFF and TS1 to TS21 time slots to ON. Please remember that the
time slot TS16 will be used as signaling time slot.
