1.0Introduction
The TxPORT International 2048 PMU /NTU (Performance
Monitoring Unit /Network Terminating Unit) is an advanced
network device capable of operating in framed or multi-
framed (G.704) modes, using AMI or HDB3 line coding.
The 2048 is designed for CEPT E1 (2.048 Mb/s) connection
to the PTT (the national Postal, Telephone, and Telegraph
authority) by the user. The unit provides end -to-end inband
protocol via a selectable national bit. This allows one PMU
to interrogate and control the remote far end PMU.
The 2048 is equipped with a dual set of performance data
registers that hold line statistics for both the PTT and the
user. Each register set provides detailed status and performance history for the network and equipment interfaces.
front panel test switch activates local/remote loops and controls the internal BERT generator and comparator.
The optional EM8000 Element Manager is available for
applications requiring multiple PMUs. The EM8000 provides access, control, testing, alarm reporting, and database
management functions.

The PTT performance data registers may be accessed, read,
and cleared by the PTT. User registers can only be accessed
by the user. Both registers contain identical core performance information, but the user registers also contain additional fields relating to unit configuration and status.
Performance data (per TR54016 and G.821/ X) is collected
in 15- minute increments for the preceding 24- hour period
and in 24 - hour increments for the preceding 30 -day period.
The unit enables downloading of remote site performance
data from the far end PMU, in all modes of operation, using
the facility data link (user selectable national bits).
The PMU provides access to the data registers through one
front and two rear management ports. These ports provide
test, diagnostics, and control over the CEPT E1 network.
Program upgrades may be downloaded into electrically erasable memory (EPROM) in the field via the supervisory port
on the front panel.
Access can also be obtained through a data link using an
assigned national bit. The national bit data link uses the
54016 U.S. FDL TABS protocol and message set. Additional request/response FDL messages have also been added
to enhance the PMU’s operation. The TxPORT EM8000
network manage r uses these messages to provid e complete
end-to-end control and performance monitoring.
The 2048 also provides features to aid in quick fault isolation. Front panel indicators display alarm and test conditions. Test jacks allow bridged monitoring of the passed
signal and signal insertion toward the PTT or the user. A

Installation
2.0Introduction
This section contains information and instructions required
to prepare the 2048 PMU for use. Included are initial
inspection procedures, mounting instructions, configuration
guidelines, connection instructions, and powering information.
NOTE: Throughout this manual, all factory default
settings will be underlined
.
2.3Supplied Materials
The TxPORT 2048 PMU /NTU is shipped from the factory
with the following equipment:
•2048 PMU with 19" mounting brackets attached
•2048 PMU Reference Manual
The user may also require the following additional materials
for the installation and operation of the 2048 PMU.
•-48 VDC power source
•A wall transformer to provide 110 VAC to -48 VDC
local power
•Network and DTE interface cables
2.1Safety Summary
This manual contains information and warnings which must
be followed by the user to ensure safe operation and to
retain the equipment in a safe condition.
!
The WARNING sign denotes a hazard to the
operator. It calls attention to a procedure or practice
which, if not correctly performed or adhered to, could
result in injury or loss of life. Do not proceed beyond a
WARNING sign until the indicated conditions are fully
understood and met.
NOTE: Follow the proper ESD (electrostatic device)
procedures while handling the circuit boards.
2.2Unpacking and Inspection
This unit is carefully packaged to prevent damage in shipment. Upon r eceipt, ins pect th e shipping contai ner for damage. If the shipping container or cushioning material is
damaged, notify the carrier immediately and make a notation on the delivery receipt that the container was damaged
(if possible, obtain the signature and name of the person
making delivery). Retain the packaging material until the
contents of the shipment have been checked for completeness and the instrument has been checked both mechanically
and electrically.
If the contents of the shipment are incomplete or, if there is
mechanical damage or defect, notify TxPORT. If the shipping container is also damaged, or the cushioning material
shows signs of stress, notify the carrier of the damage as
well as TxPORT. Keep the shipping materials for carrier’s
inspection. TxPORT will arrange for repair or replacement
without waiting for claim settlement.
•20-gauge stranded wire (or similar) for DC power
and alarm connection
For specific applications, the user may require additional
cables and adapters. The interface requirements of any
application may be met by using the appropriate cable. Standard cables an d ord ering n umber s are lis ted in Table 1 -1 on
page 1-4. Contact TxPORT for any needed assistance in
cable selection.
2.4Mounting
The 2048 PMU is a modular unit that plugs in to eith er a single unit housing or into a chassis that holds up to 12 units.
Single units are designed for stand - alone desktop use, wall
mounting, or chassis mounting (in either a vertical or horizontal orientation). The unit uses an interchangeable front
panel to accommodate the chassis card cage.
The unit utilizes an interchangeable backplane to accommodate the nest mount card cage and, when used in the single
unit housing, to provide various connector types for differing application requirements. Backplane options for the
2048 include DB15, Twin-axial, and BNC connectors.
2.4.1Stand-alone Unit
To access the circuit boards and configuration switches, perform the following steps: Open the front panel access door
and remove it by gently bending the plastic from th e middle
using both hands. Then pull the two side strips of plastic
from the middle outwards until the four stops are clear of
the front panel. Pull the cover off the front panel. Then
remove the 2 screws and pull the front panel and circuit
boards out of the housing. Observe proper electrostatic
device handling procedures while holding the circuit boards.

The stand -alone unit may be used in a chassis installation
with the following modifications: Remove the housing as
described above and then remove the four screws holding
the front panel to the circuit boards. Replace the stand -alone
front panel with a module type front panel. The unit will
now slide into one of the 12 slots in the chassis.
2.4.2Chassis Assembly
Up to 12 units may be inserted in to a chass is and the ch assis
may be installed in a 19" or 23" rack using four screws.
Connections are made from the rear of the chassis. Refer to
the figures on page 2-10 for these illustrations.

2.5Unit Configuration
2.5.2Switch SW2 (National Bit)
The 2048 PMU model is designed as a two card set. The
two cards roughly divide into analog and digital functions.
The unit provides an interface to the network in compliance
with established standards. It has been designed to operate
either manually or through the use of a console/terminal.
Therefore, the unit has both hardware and software configuration settings.
This following paragraphs explain the various hardware
configurations that may be adjusted for unique applications.
Software controlled settings are discussed i n the Operations
section of this manual.
2.5.1Switch SW1 (BERT Pattern)
When the PMU is instructed to send a test pattern by the test
switch (FAR/LOC) on the front panel, it will send 5 seconds
of inband loop code (10000) and then transm it the test pat-
