Verilink’s T1 ESF CSU provides an economica l solution for pr oviding the T1 interface
between customer premises equipment and T1 facilities (telco or private). Each unit is
compatible with all T 1 carrier transmissio n equipment and is designed to comply with
all industry-standard specif ications. Both the transmitt ed and received 1.544 Mbps
signals are conditio ned.
The T1 ESF CSU is an in dustry standard T1 channe l service unit. It detects and
activates network initiated loopbacks, monitors bipolar violations, and maintains pulse
density of the transmitted signal. The unit is capable of interfacing to both B8ZS and
AMI circuits and c an c onver t si gnal fo rmat s or lin e co din g to i nt egrat e ol de r equ ipme nt .
Automatic transmission of ESF performance report messages (PRM) is also supported
by the T1 ESF CSU.
The unit is de signed to be wallmou nted usin g hook-and -loop fasten ers or “T” openings
on the base (like a telephone). The unit can also be set on a desktop.
The unit provi des ALBO circu itry on t he network re ceive path. T he network ALBO
supports a receive range from +1 to
30 decibels. The DTE suppo rts DSX1 signal
ranges up to 655 feet. The un it also provides line bu ild out (LBO) circui try on both
network and DTE. The network transmit LBO is user selectable in four increments
(from 0 to
22.5 decibels). The DTE transmit LBO is user selectable in five increments
from 0 to 655 feet.
The T1 ESF CSU operates from an external power source. Network and DTE
connections are made through RJ- 4 8C connectors. The units have primary and
secondary surge protection on both the network and DTE side (meeting the UL 1950
requirements).

Po wer Connection

Plug the connector from the power supply into the unit. Plug the
transformer into an appropriate grounded outlet. This will apply
power to the unit.
This section describes the configuration of the T1 ESF CSU.
This unit is configured using DIP switches. Refer to Figure 2-1
for switch locations.
Switch SW1 is locat ed on the CSU c over. This eight-posit ion dip
switch provides the following configuration parameters.
(Underlined text indicates default settings.)

Configuration

NOTICE:
of the optio n switches. C hanges to the NET L BO and EQ L BO switches do not take effect until the unit is reset. Reset the unit by removing power from the unit and the n reapplying pow er. The loopback switches acti vate as soon as they are thrown.
On power up, each unit is configured to the settings

NOTICE:
EQ LBO
Positions SW1-2, SW1 -3, and SW1 -4 set the EQ LBO (line
build out) transmit signal value towards the customer equipment.
The value should match the cable length from the EQ port to the
attached equipment. The default is
0 to 133 feet (AAA)
.
Equipment Loop
Position SW1-5 sets equipment loopback functions. When the
switch is set to Enabled (B), the unit is placed into an equipment
loopback where the equ ipment receives al l the data it sends. T he
unit remains in equipment loopback until the switch is set to
Disabled (A)
. The unit send s an unfra med all ones pattern to the
network.
Network Loop
Position SW1-6 sets network loopback functions. NET LOOP
can be set to Auto or Manual.
Auto (A)
enables the unit to
respond to network loop requests. Setting the switch to Manual
(B) forces the unit into a manual network loopback. During loop,
the unit sends an unframed all ones pattern to the equipment. It
responds to inband CSU loop (1-in-5 pattern) and unloop (1-in-3
pattern), ESF out-o f-band line lo opback/payload loopback, and
loop up/loop down codes, and responds to the unive rsal
loopdown code even if the switch is in the "Manual" position.
Network LBO
Positions SW1- 7 and SW1-8 set the network line build out
signal level transmitted towards the T1 facility. The default
output level is
0 dB (AA)
. Change the signal level to -7.5 dB,
-15 dB, or -22.5 dB as necessary. The telco can provid e the
proper setting. If unsure of the setting, leave it at 0 dB.
Position SW1-1 is not enabled for use.

This chapter describes the diagnostic and test features of
Verilink’s T1 ESF CSU. The unit is controlled manually using
front panel DIP switches (the DI P switches ar e discussed on
page 5). The fr ont panel indicators and side bant am jacks ar e
described below.
The unit indicators convey major alarm conditions and looping
status.
POWER
This green indicator lights when power is applied to the unit.
LOOPBACK
This amber indicator lights under the following conditions: the
NET LOOP switch is set to Manual; the EQUIP LOOP is placed
in the Enabled position; or the unit receives an inband (or
out-of-band) loop code from the network.
NET LOS
This red indicator lights if the internal alarm circuitry detects a
loss of signal co ndition fo r
175 bit times or if it detects an
unframed error from the network. The indicator stays lit until the
unit detects
4 pulses in 32 bit t imes.
EQ LOS
This red indicator lights if the internal alarm circuitry detects a
loss of signal co ndition fo r
175 bit times or if it detects an
unframed error from the DTE. The indicator stays lit until the
unit detects
4 pulses in 32 bit tim es.
Position SW1-5 sets equipment loopback functions. When the
switch is set to Enab led, the unit i s placed into a n equipment
loopback where the DTE receives all the data it sends. The unit
sends an unframed all ones pattern to the network end. The unit
remains in equipment loopback until the switch is set to
Disabled.

Network

Position SW1-6 sets network loopback functions. NET LOOP
can be set to Auto or Manual. “Auto” enables the unit to respond
to network lo op reques ts (a 1- in-5 pat tern) and remain lo oped
until it receives a 1-in-3 pattern. Setting the switch to “Manual”
forces the unit into a manual network loopback until the switch
is returned to Auto or loopdown code is received from the
network. The unit sends an unframed all ones pattern to the
equipment end unless the equipment is also in loopback.
The following paragraphs desc ribe other loops that may be
initiated on the unit. Refer to the looping diagrams below for
further information.
CSU Inband LLB:
Each unit can be looped remotel y by
generating to wards it a stan dard CSU lin e loopback co de (00001
repeating for
5 seconds, framed or unframed ). Once lo oped,
the received signal from the T1 facility (NET IN) is regenerated
and transmitted back to the T1 facility (NET OUT).
CSU Inband Unloop:
Each unit can be unloop ed remotely by
generating to wards it a st andard CSU l ine unloop c ode (001
repeating for
5 seconds, framed or unframed).
T1.403 LLB:
The unit supports the T1.403 line loopback
command (the FDL LLB format is 00001110 11111111). Once
looped, the received signal from the T1 facility (NET IN) is
regenerated and transmitted back to the T1 facility (NET OUT).
T1.403 LLB Unloop:
The unit s upports T1 .403 FDL line
loopback unloop command messages (00111000 11111111
repeating).
T1.403 / 54016 PLB:
The unit supports T1.403 FDL payload
loopback command messages (00010100 11111111 repeating).

Te s t J a ck s

The bantam jacks located on the left side of the unit provide
signal access as follows :
The FROM NET and TO NET j acks can be use d to break t he
network connect ion to the T1 ESF CSU int ernal circuitr y and
connect the network to a piece of test equipment.
The NET MON and EQ MON jacks are used for passively
monitoring recei ved signals pa ssing throug h the unit ( between
the DTE and the network).
The FROM EQ and TO EQ ja cks can be u sed to break th e
equipment connection to th e T1 ESF CSU internal circuitry and
connect the equip ment to a pie ce of test equi pment
NOTICE:
the EQ LOS indicator lights. This is due to the test connection and is not an indication of signal loss from the equipment.
