CCSCF30xx-11x

Slide-In Card (SIC)

• DS3, ES/T3, and STS-1

• Coax (BNC) to Fiber

Transition Networks CCSCF30xx-11x series SICs
encode and decode DS3, E3/T3, or STS-1 coax copper
signals over fiber optic cable to extend the distance and
transmission reliability of high-speed DS3, E3/T3, or
STS-1 data traffic. The CCSCF30xx-11x is designed to
install in a Transition Networks PointSystem chassis.

Note: The SCSCF30xx-11x model is the standalone version. For more information, see

**CCSCF3029-110/-111, -112/-113, -114/-115, -116/-117 are intended to be installed, as a
grouped pair, in the same network with one being the local Device and the other being the
remote Device.

Installation

CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions
when handling SICs. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the SIC.

Selecting hardware or software mode

The hardware/software header J11 is located on the circuit board. Use a small needle­nose pliers or similar tool to move the jumper to the desired mode.

Hardware The mode of the SIC is determined by this

switch settings.

Software The mode of the SIC is determined by the

most-recently saved, on-board
microprocessor settings in this position.

Set the coax grounding jumper (optional)

Note: Remove the jumpers on headers J15/J17, and J17/J19, only if necessary.

Headers J15/J17 Fixed Optic models, and J17/J19 SFP Models (located on the circuit
board near the coax ports) provide a grounding feature so that the CCSCF30xx-11x SIC
complies with ITU-T G.703 standard where:

• The TX output coax port outer shield is connected to earth ground.

• The RX input coax port outer shield is connected to earth ground.

The factory default settings for these two headers are:

Header (TX) (jumper ON) = Output coax port outer shield is connected to earth ground.
See J15 illustration below for fixed optic models and J17 for SFP Models.

Header (RX) (jumper ON) = Input coax port outer shield is connected to earth ground.
See J17 illustration below for fixed optic models and J19 for SFP Models

SFP Models

Data modes for Fixed Optic and SFP models

The CCSCF30xx-11x series SICs encode and decode DS3, E3/T3, or STS-1 coax
copper signals over fiber optic cable at the following data rates:

• DS3 (Digital signal) 44.7 Mbps

• E3 (European standard) 34.4 Mbps

• STS-1 (Synchronous transport signal) 51.8 Mbps

Factory default is DS3 mode (jumper on header J18 for the Fixed Optic models, and
J20 for the SFP Models with DIP SW1 UP). To select a different data mode, see
illustrations below.

Install the CCSCF30xx-11x SIC

CAUTION: Wear a grounding device and observe electrostatic discharge precautions
when installing the SIC. Failure to observe this caution could result in damage to the
SIC.

To install the SIC into the Transition Networks PointSystem chassis:

1. Locate an empty slot on the chassis.

2. Carefully slide the SIC into the chassis slot, aligning it with the installation guides.

3. Ensure that the SIC is firmly seated to the backplane of the chassis.

4. Push in and rotate the panel-fastener screw clockwise to secure the card to the
chassis frame.

Set the loop-back switch

The loop-back switch is located on the front panel of the SIC. The switch is used in the
installation and network debugging procedures.

To set the switch, use a small flat-blade screwdriver or a
similar device (see the drawing).

CL (Coax loop-back) Enable loop-back on the local coax interface.

-- (Center Position) Normal operation.

FL (Fiber loop-back) Enable loop-back on the local fiber interface.

Note: Three loop-back test scenarios are described in detail in this manual.
