About the Hotwire ATM Line Cards
Hotwire ATM Line Cards
The Hotwire® 8335, 8355, 8365, and 8385 Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
Line Cards are circuit boards mounted in a Hotwire 8620 or 8820 GranDSLAM
(Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer) and used to transport ATM cells at
high speeds over a single twisted-pair connection.
Model 8335 supports Symmetric Digital Subscriber Line (SDSL). It can be set
to AutoBaud to the highest rate the loop can support, or to use a fixed line rate
from 144 to 2320 kbps.
Model 8355 supports ReachDSL. It automatically adjusts to the highest rate
the loop can support, from 32 to 2176 kbps.
1
Model 8365 supports Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL). It can be
set to adapt to the line conditions at startup, or set to the following fixed rates
depending on line code:
— G.dmt and ANSI T1.413: 32 to 8000 kbps downstream and 32 to 832 kbps
upstream.
— G.lite: 64 to 3008 kbps downstream and 32 to 512 kbps upstream.
Model 8385 supports Single-pair High-speed Digital Subscriber Line
(SHDSL). It can be set to adapt to the line conditions at startup, or set to a
fixed line rate from 200 to 2312 kbps.
Part of Paradyne’s Hotwire Connected™ program, the cards interoperate with
third-party DSL endpoints providing end users with the ability to select the best
equipment to fit their application. The new line cards also integrate support for
multiple DSL services on a single card.

ATM Features
1. About the Hotwire ATM Line Cards
The cards’ ATM features include:
Classes of service. Supports traffic management service categories
necessary to support voice and data applications:
—CBR
—rt-VBR
—nrt-VBR
— UBR (only class of service supported for the Model 8355)
Auto configuration. Two Virtual Channel Connections (VCCs) per port are
automatically configured, providing data and voice services.
Multiple virtual circuits. Up to 250 additional VCCs can be configured by the
user and assigned among the DSL ports.
ATM statistics. Maintains statistics for:
— Total cells received
— Total cells transmitted
— Total cells dropped
— Loss of cell delineation events
— Cells with corrected Header Error Control (HEC; Model 8335 only)
— Cells with uncorrectable HEC
Endpoint Support Features
The cards’ endpoint support features include:
Third-party endpoint support. The Models 8335, 8365, and 8385 line cards
support third-party endpoints through the Hotwire Connected program,
including Integrated Access Devices (IADs) and data-only endpoints from
numerous industry-leading vendors. The Model 8385 card supports third-party
endpoints using the ITU SHDSL standard. A list of Paradyne’s SHDSL
partners is available on the World Wide Web at www.paradyne.com. Select
Partners → Hotwire Connected Interoperability Program.
Model 6390 Modem support. The Model 8355 line card supports the Hotwire
Model 6390 Modem.
Automatic rate adaptation. The card and the endpoint negotiate the best
rate, limited if desired by the user, through automatic rate adaptation. For
2B1Q (Model 8335) the Conexant AutoBaud algorithm is used.

Menus and Screens
Menu and Screen Formats
The Hotwire DSLAM has an ASCII-based menu- and screen-driven user interface
system that enables the user to configure and monitor the Hotwire cards. This
section describes the components of a typical Hotwire menu and screen.
A typical Hotwire menu format is shown below:
1
2
2
3
1. Menu Title is the top line of the menu window that displays the title of the
menu or submenu.
2. Menu List is the portion of the menu window that displays the list of menu
options. When selected (by using the up and down arrow keys to move the
cursor position), a menu option displays a submenu window.
3. Letter Navigation Keys are provided within a menu list. These keys provide
an alternative method for selecting menu items.
For example, from the Hotwire – DSL menu illustrated above, you can press
the A key to select the Configuration menu item. The Configuration menu
appears. You can then press the A key to select the Card Status menu item,
and subsequently the Card Info menu item.
Some menu items not active for this product are displayed as placeholders in
the menu lists so that letter navigation keys are the same for all related
products.
8335-A2-GB20-70 February 2003 2-1
2. Menus and Screens
Components of a Hotwire Screen
A typical Hotwire screen looks like this:
2

1
1. System Header Line is the top right line of the screen. This line contains two
fields of system login information:
— The first field displays a user-defined chassis or individual card name. If
you have not defined the system name, <no name> appears.
— The second field displays the previous remote or local login depending on
what is currently displayed in the middle field (such as the current login). If
the current login is local, the last field displays the previous remote login.
If the current login is remote, the last field displays the previous local
login.
2. Display Area is the main body of the screen. This area contains the screen
name in a “tab” at the upper left, and fields displaying data and/or requiring
input. The input values themselves are entered in the Input Line at the bottom
of the screen.
3. Input Line is in the lower area of the screen. This area displays prompts after
which you enter values for the field highlighted in the Display Area.
If a field has predefined permitted values, you need only type enough of a
value to distinguish it from other permitted values. For example, if the
Behavior field has a value of Fixed or AutoBaud, you need only type f or a,
respectively, and press Enter, to select a value.

card and all interfaces. Each time the screen is refreshed, one of the following

Naming Conventions for Ports and Interfaces
Special naming conventions exist for the Port Name and Interface Name fields.
Port Name – Identifies a physical port. It consists of a family name (dsl for a
DSL card), and a port number. The port number can range from 1 to the
number of ports on the card. For example: dsl12.
Interface Name – Identifies a logical connection. It consists of a family name
and a port number (same as the port name), followed by a number identifying
a logical interface on the port. Currently the interface number is limited to 1.
For example: dsl12:1.

User Login Screen (MCP)
You can log in to the Hotwire DSL system using either a local VT100-compatible
terminal or a remote Telnet connection. However, the Hotwire DSL system
accepts only one login session at a time.
The User Login screen appears if one or more users have been defined on the
Management Communications Processor (MCP).
Enter your login ID and password. The login ID and password are case-sensitive.
If you have RADIUS Authentication, this verification may take several minutes as
each RADIUS server is contacted one at a time.
If you are denied access during a Telnet session, the session stops and an error
is logged. If you are using a console, you are automatically returned to the User
Login screen.
NOTE:
If you forget your password, contact your Technical Service Center. Have the
serial number of the MCP card available, and the service representative will
provide you with a password.

Setting Spectrum Management (Models 8355 and 8385)
The Spectrum Management screen of the Configuration branch of the Model 8355
and Model 8385 line card (menu sequence A-A-G) sets the unique regional
operational parameters to use for this card. For the Model 8385, the selections
differ depending on whether you are using the card in Notrh American (Annex A)
or European (Annex B) networks.
The purpose of Spectrum Management is to facilitate a reasonable spectral
environment for the coexistence of multiple technologies in the loop plant with an
acceptable level of crosstalk between them. In some countries, the DSL service
provider must meet the spectrum management specification of that country. For
example, in the United Kingdom, it is a requirement that the product comply with
OFTel PSD mask for the loop length requested (short, medium or long). Support
for this requirement is provided by enabling the Spectrum Management option on
the Spectrum Management screen (A-A-G), and properly setting the Line Length
and EWL options on the Port Configuration screen (A-B-B).
