2 INTRODUCTION
The 9480, 4180, 4000XA, 4284, and 4280 are Multiple Protocol Inter-Networking
devices. In this document, the term xxxx or unit will mean any of these devices.
The 4000XA, 4180, 4280, 9480, and 4284 include optional enhanced vertical service
feature packages such as X.25 mediation in various capacities. The 9480 and 4284 also
support the E2A Bridge Network emulation feature package. Other feature packages are
similarly available.
The 4000XA and 4180 support a Time Slot Router (TSR) port. The TSR port allows
transport of proprietary protocols on DS0s, or aggregated on a DS1. The T1, E1, and J1
formats are all supported.
The 4000XA and 4180 support an IP-GATE LAN interface for providing a VPN service
with disjoint addressing. The IP-GATE port provides access to a secure and reliable
virtual private network separate from the other functions of the 4180. It provides an interLAN networking connection over an IP network that would otherwise not be secure
enough to carry this traffic. This provides complete connectivity with any remote IP-GATE via an IP network. Many hardware variations support an IP-GATE. For example, a
1
2020
ports on two 4180s can communicate with each other over an IP network. An IP-GATE
resident on a BNS network may be used as a peer by interfacing through the Universal
Mediation Interface (UMI) Module. If it is desirable to provide access to a LAN in a
central site from a large number of remote sites, the IP-GATE port on the main-site 4180
can be configured to interconnect with the IP-FANOUT application on a 6xxx EmbeddedNetwork Processor located anywhere on the IP network. Please see the
Solution Document “Secure and Reliable Intranet Access For Remote Sites” for a more
detailed discussion of this use of the IP-FANOUT application on the 6xxx.
The 9480 is a single port device, the 4284 has 4 serial ports, the 4000XA and 4180 each
have 16 serial ports, and the 4280 has 32 serial ports. All of the serial ports are
synchronous, or asynchronous that support speeds up to 115.2kbps. Popular protocols
such as Asynchronous, various Bi-Synchronous variants, HDLC, SDLC, X.25, and E2A
are all supported interchangeably on a per-port basis.
In addition, vertical services typically found on Embedded Network processors have
been incorporated into the devices as feature packages. For example, this allows for the
direct mediation of X.25 to individual circuits over TCP connections when the X.25
vertical service is selected on a port. The 9480 and 4284 devices also allow the
emulation of the E2A Bridge network when the E2AHOB vertical service is selected on a
port.
+ SAM + IP-GATE combination provides such a connection. Similarly, IP-GATE
1
The 2020 is a stand-alone unit, which interfaces an existing SAM to an IP network
instead of a BNS network. This gives IP network access to devices connected to the
SAM ports without any re-cabling.

9480, 4180, 4280, 4284 4000XA User Manual
The xxxx is an internet protocol (IP) access device. That is, it mediates any of the
supported protocols and the IP protocol suite. This includes IP, TCP, Telnet, RTP, ARP,
SNMP, etc.
The 4000XA, 4180, 4280, 4284, and 9480 hardware is each individually unique, but
comparable to the 4000. The 4000XA hardware is identical to the 4000 as it is an in situ
software conversion. The notable differences are power options, number of ports, serial
port type, and the 10BaseT vs 10/100 LAN connection for IP connectivity. The xxxx
series provide expanded or additional feature packages.
The 4280 allows 48VDC, nominal 24VDC (18-72V), or AC via a power cube. In addition,
the 4280 may be supplied by Power over Ethernet (POE) on the LAN port thereby
eliminating any power connection.
The 9480, and 4284 hardware are similar to the 4280 except the power options are
48VDC nominal, Power over Ethernet(POE), or AC via the power cube. Notably
missing is the nominal 24VDC (18-72V) power option present on the 4280.
The 4180 allows 48VDC (18-72V), 5VDC, or AC via a power cube. The 4180 does not
support Power over Ethernet(POE).
2.1 CLOSED USER GROUPS
This is an important feature for protecting sensitive endpoints in a corporate-wide
network without the burden of special “security servers”. The xxxx provides security with
an implementation of Closed User Group (CUG) membership and calling security. This
is a capability similar to that provided in X.25 networks but now available for an IP
infrastructure. A closed user group restricts access between xxxx ports and domains or
individual endpoints in the IP network. No external security systems of any kind are
required. A CUG application example is presented at the end of this manual.
2.2 HUNT GROUPS
A Hunt Group is a set of ports arranged to receive calls to a common address. The xxxx
provides this capability for user ports configured to receive calls from the IP network.
2.3 DNS FEATURES
The xxxx can maintain a set of mnemonic host names, analogous to the /etc/hosts file
on both UNIX and Microsoft Windows platforms. This allows the xxxx to perform a
translation between a user-provided name and its associated IP address and TCP port
number. (The use of a mnemonic name is optional, as the xxxx will always accept an IP
address in its numeric form.) The xxxx also allows for the definition of an external
Domain Name Server (DNS) to be used for mnemonic addresses not defined in the host
table. Multiple Domain Name Servers are supported. They are searched in priority order.
2.4 TACACS+ RADIUS LOGIN Support
The xxxx supports up to two TACACS+ RADIUS servers for login authentication. These
are a primary, and a secondary, although each is individually enabled. The TACACS+
support is for either encrypted, or clear authorization. Encryption keys may contain
spaces.

2.5 ALARM RELAY UNIT ALARM GRID INTERFACE
The 4000XA, 4180, and the 4280, each provide a standard wiring for activation of the
alarm grid should the hardware encounter a fault condition. The fault conditions include
a total loss of power to the device. The alarm grid interface may be wired for normally
open or normally closed connections.
2.6 Peer To Peer Secure Socket Cryptography
The xxxx will support peer to peer communications using secure cryptography. This is
important for Internet Protocol (IP) networks where the contents of the peer session is to
be protected from network sniffer devices. The cryptography feature is selectable on a
per port basis, and both session endpoints should be set identically. The cryptography
key selection is dynamic, and automatic.
2.7 X.25 Mediation Features
The 4280 has thirty two instances of the X25PAD mediation application.
The 4180 has sixteen instances of the X25PAD mediation application.
The 4000XA has sixteen instances of the X25PAD mediation application.
The 4284 has four instances of the X25PAD mediation application.
The 9480 has one instance of the X25PAD mediation application.
Use of the X25PAD application is exclusive of any other vertical service application (e.g.
E2AHOB) or feature package.
Each of the serial ports on these devices may be connected to a (B)X.25 interface. The
X25PAD mediation application allows a telnet client to interface on a per VC basis. In
addition, X.25 pass-through for VC aggregation is fully supported. Each VC may be
individually configured as a PAD or a PASS-THROUGH interface. A specialty interface
for the MacStar operations system is supported. The Record Boundary Preservation
protocol is supported. SVC hunt groups across X.25 lines are specifically supported
allowing fault tolerant X.25 links to be established. The (B)X.25 session layer is
specifically supported via an API.
2.8 Time Slot Router (TSR) Features
The 4180 provides one RJ48C for a TSR interface. The RJ48C supports T1, E1, or J1
software configurable. Each time slot may be uniquely routed on the IP WAN. Individual
CODECs may be installed for load optimization. HDLC time slots may be terminated for
use by 6xxx applications, or for routing to serial ports.
2.9 E2A Head of Bridge Features
The 4280 does not support the E2AHOB mediation application at this time.
The 4180 does not support the E2AHOB mediation application at this time.
The 4000XA does not support the E2AHOB mediation application at this time.
The 4284 has four instances of the E2AHOB mediation application.

10
9480, 4180, 4280, 4284 4000XA User Manual
The 9480 has one instance of the E2AHOB mediation application.
Use of the E2AHOB application is exclusive to any other vertical service application (e.g.
X25PAD) or feature package on a particular port.
Each of the serial ports on these devices may be configured, on a per port basis, to be
connected to an E2A head of bridge. The head of bridge may be an E2A port on an OS
such as NMA, an intermediary device such as a TNC, or merely a modem in an existing
bridge chain. The E2AHOB mediation application allows a switched virtual bridge
network to be created using standard E2A ports on the same or other devices. A virtual
distribution bridge of up to 31:1 may be created in this manner. The E2AHOB provides a
display of the dynamic address map, and a full decoding protocol snooper. The
E2AHOB has provision for display of the dynamic E2A address map, and an E2A
decoding protocol snooper.
2.10 eSAM Extension Board Support
The devices may be used as an extension board to a eSAM. The eSAM is a network
extensible variant of the SAM series for Datakit and BNS networks. This feature allows
the device to be used as a single port, four port, sixteen port, or 32 port board to extend
a eSAM. The device does not need to be co-located with the eSAM as it uses the IP
infrastructure for communications. See the eSAM product addendum for more
information.

the 4000XA and 4180 faceplate. The AC power cube plugs into the circular connector
labeled 48VDC on the 4284, and the 9480.
Power Over Ethernet
The 4280, 4284, and 9480 will accept power on the LAN connection using the POE
specification. When used, no additional power is required by the device.
Redundant Power
The 4280, 4284, and 9480 may be connected to power on each of their supported
interfaces. For example, the “Power over Ethernet” may be used at the same time as
48V power on the circular connector. The power supplies are isolated from each other
and completely redundant. If one should fail, the other is used without interruption. Note
that the 4280 may be triple redundant with Power over Ethernet, 48V on its 3-prong
interface, and 18-72v on its circular connector.
3.2 ALARM RELAY UNIT INTERFACE
The Alarm Relay Unit connector is a three position (Failed Open, Closed, Failed Closed)
terminal block labeled ALARM on the 4000XA, 4180 or 4280 faceplate. The terminal
block connectors accommodate 10-awg to 14-awg wire.
3.3 CONSOLE INTERFACE
The console interface is used for initial configuration, and for StarKeeper® II NMS
monitoring on an on-going basis.
This interface requires a standard RJ45-terminated twisted-pair data cable on the
4000XA, 4180, 4280, and 4284. It connects as a data terminating equipment (DTE) to
an asynchronous device and uses RS-232C signaling. It is configured as 9600 bps, 8
bits, no parity and one stop bit.
On the 9480, the serial console interface is available on the secondary port pins of the
DB25 connector (Pins 14 & 16). Once initially configured, all operations may use the
telnet console.
2
3.4 4180 RS-232/V.11/RS-530SERIAL INTERFACE
The DB25 RS-530 male connector on the 4000XA and 4180 provides support for
software-selectable device interfaces (V.35 and RS232-C) at data rates up to 2Mbps.
The DB25 RS-530 interface is a DTE only. The male connector electrically presents a
data terminal equipment (DTE) interface and supports RS-232C directly. For V.35, a
standard RS-530 DB25 Female to V.35 Winchester-34 Male adapter is available.
2
The xxxx also provides access to the console function through a TCP telnet
connection via a reserved telnet server port (TCP port 1023). This service is available
only when the unit is in service, and may be protected by Closed User Group
membership.

3.5 10/100 BASE-T INTERFACE
The LAN connection on the 4280, 4284, and 9480 is a 10/100 BaseT interface on the
front of the unit and is labeled “LAN”. The interface requires a standard RJ45 terminated
Category 5 twisted-pair data cable. It connects to a 10/100 Hub, EtherSwitch, or router
on a local LAN segment providing access to a wide-area IP based network. This port
supports TCP/IP peer-level protocols (e.g. TELNET, TCP, IP, ARP, SNMP, etc.). The
LAN interface will automatically negotiate the speed with the network interface PHY. The
4000XA and 4180 provides two LAN connections with similar interface capable of
10BaseT operation. These are labeled LAN and GATE for their distinct functions.
3.6 TSR
The 4000XA and 4180 DSU interface uses an industry-standard RJ48C connector. The
option of using the interface for T1 (1.544 MHz) or E1 (2.048 MHz) is software
selectable. The TSR is used to transport individual time slots with on T1/E1 interfaces.
3.7 USER PORTS
The user serial ports support both asynchronous and synchronous protocols in either
DCE or DTE modes. Configuration is selectable on a per port basis. Baud rates up to
115.2kbps are supported. Synchronous ports support NRZ & NRZI. The NRZI format
supports recovered clocks for isochronous (i.e. 2 wire) operation.
The V.35 and RS-530 interfaces require a 9008 adapter, or a 9116 intelligent patch
panel. The RS-232 physical interface may be done via the 9116 intelligent patch panel,
or directly from the user port interface. When using a RJ45 interface, an industry
standard RJ45 to DB25 adapter is utilized. The 9008 adapter and the 9116 intelligent
patch panel each provides a DB25 interface. See the cabling information contained in
this user manual.

RJ45 adapter with special wiring must be attached to the 9480. The serial console is
connected via this adapter and cabling as shown in the figure above. Specific wiring
information is found in the cabling section of this document.
The serial console is configured as 9600 baud, 8 bits, and no parity.

4.6 DATA TRANSPORT CABLING – SAM16 REPLACEMENT
This section describes the procedures for cabling a unit being used to replace a SAM16.
Existing SAM16 cabling will be reused. The unit will interface to an IP infrastructure and
not a BNS trunk. BNS connectivity shall be via a Universal Mediation Interface (UMI)
module. Please consult the UMI documentation for more information.
For a completely new installation, this section should still be read first. Differences will
be noted in section 4.6.
4.6.1 Asynchronous User Port Connections
The 4000XA, 4180, 4280, and 4284 each have RS-232C (RJ45) connectors presented
as data terminal equipment (DTE) interfaces, in place of the DB25 connectors on the
SAM16. These RJ45 connectors use the same pinouts that each port on a 4000,
SAM64, or SAM504 uses. The following steps are needed for each asynchronous user
port to complete the SAM16 replacement:
• DTE DEVICE
1. Remove the existing DB25 cable from the SAM16 port.
2. Attach a D8AG-F (25-pin-F to mod socket, null modem wiring) adapter to the
DB25 cable.
3. Connect a D8W (mod plug to mod plug, straight through) cable from the D8AG-F
to the corresponding xxxx RS-232C user port.
• DCE DEVICE
1. Remove the existing DB25 cable from the SAM16 port.
2. Remo ve the existing DCE to DCE adapter.
3. Attach a D8AH-F (25-pin-F to mod socket, straight through) adapter to the DB25
cable.
4. Connect a D8W (mod plug to mod plug, straight through) cable from the D8AH-F
to the corresponding xxxx RS-232C user port.
4.6.2 Synchronous User Port Connections
The following steps are needed for each synchronous user port to complete the SAM16
replacement:
• DTE DEVICE
1. Remove the existing DB25 cable from the SAM16 port.
2. Attach a SYNC DCE-F (25-pin-F to mod socket) adapter to the DB25 cable.
3. Connect a D8W (mod plug to mod plug, straight through) cable from the SYNC DCE-F adapter to the corresponding xxxx RS-232C user port.
• DCE DEVICE
1. Remove the existing DB25 cable from the SAM16 port.
2. Remo ve the existing DCE to DCE adapter.
3. Attach a SYNC DTE-F (25-pin-F to mod socket) adapter to the DB25 cable.
4. Connect a D8W (mod plug to mod plug, straight through) cable from the SYNC
DTE-F

.
4.7.1 User Ports
Although the 4000XA, 4180, 4280, and 4284 are each configured to work like a SAM16,
the pin outs on the RJ45 connectors used for the RS-232 user ports are identical to the
pin outs for the SAM64 and SAM504 user ports. Thus, all adapters and cables used with
these SAM types will apply to the unit. Refer to the Cabling section of Data Networking Products Synchronous/Asynchronous Multiplexer Reference. In most cases, a standard
RJ45-terminated Category 5 twisted-pair data cable can be used, with the appropriate
adapter (depending on the gender) on the connector on the endpoint device.

4.9 THE 9116 INTELLIGENT PATCH PANEL
The 9116 Intelligent Patch Panel (IPP) is used to provide software selectable physical
interfaces to the 4180 or 4280 user ports. The 9116 supports RS-232, V.35, V.11, RS530, RS-530A, X.21, RS-422, RS-449, and V.36 interfaces. The 9116 can operate as a
DTE or a DCE on a per port basis.
The following is a diagram of the 9116 IPP:
9116 IPP Front View
9116 IPP Rear View
Please note that the 9116 does not have switches of any kind. All configuration
information is dynamically set by the 4000XA, 4180 or 4280. The DB25 interfaces are on
the rear side of the panel, and the RJ45 interfaces and LED indicators are on the front
side.
The 9116 IPP is connected to the 4000XA, 4180 or 4280 on a port by port basis using a
short RJ45 to RJ45 straight cable. There is no requirement to connect all of the 4000XA,
4180 or 4280 ports to the 9116 IPP. Each port will operate independently.

9480, 4180, 4280, 4284 4000XA User Manual
The 9116 requires a +5V power input, and will also cascade the power to the next
device. The +5V to the 9116 may be parasite power from the 4280 +5V output
connector. In the alternative, a separate AC adapter may be used for the 9116.
The 9116 DB25 ports are configured with the physical interface selected on the 4000XA,
4180 or 4280 user console. The ports may operate in DTE or DCE modes. The DB25 is
a female and is a native physical DCE. For physical DTE operation, a wiring adapter (or
cable) is required. The logical DTE operation is incorporated automatically by the 9116
IPP.
Each 9116 port has 15 LED indicators. These are described as follows:
Lamp Function
RxD DB25 Receive Data indication.
TxD DB25 Transmit Data indication.
DCD DB25 Data Carrier Detect indication.
CTS DB25 Clear to Send indication.
DSR DB25 Data Set Ready indication.
RTS DB25 Request to Send indication.
DTR DB25 Data Terminal Ready indication.
CLK DB25 RxC and TxC indication.
SCTE DB25 External Timing indication.

Status 9116 IPP port reporting status information to the xxxx.
Configure The xxxx is actively configuring the 9116 port.
The 9116 is also available in a single port version called the 9116-S. This is shown
below.
The single port version of 9116 has all of the features and automatic configuration but no
LED displays. The convenient size requires no rack space and converts the RJ45 to
DB25 directly. If a Winchester-34 cable is required, a Black Box FA058 or FA059 DB25
to Winchester-34 adapter is attached to the 9116.
