Product Features■ Eight ANSI T1-601.1992compliant ISDN U-interfacecircuits running from 64 to144 kbps data rate■ Maximum of eight DLCIs perIDSL loop■ 64 kbps, 128 kbps and 144 kbpsdata rates■ Loopback support at theU-transceivers and ATMinterface for fault isolation■ Performance monitoringsupport (FEBE and NEBE) ateach interface point (8)■ Test packets sent toward linefor diagnostics■ Craft and SNMP managementinterfaces■ Software download capabilityfor application code and FPGAconfiguration data■ Industry-leading 10-yearwarrantyLegacy ISDN deployments were intended todeliver 144 kbps over a single pair. TheADTRANTM Total Access ® DSLAM Octal IDSLmodule provides data interfaces between theeight U-interface ISDN line circuits and theTotal Access DSLAM backplane whichconnects to the CSM or TSI switch module.The card occupies a single access slot in theshelf. This card may be plugged into any oneof the 28 general purpose, line card slot posi-tions of the Total Access DSLAM. The card isdesigned to work with the DS3 CSM, 128-portCSM, OC-3c CSM, and the DS3 TSI switchmodule.The Octal IDSL module supports bothFRF.5 and FRF.8 frame interworking stan-dards. The data rate on each line interfacemay be 64 kbps, 128 kbps or 144 kbps. Thedata rate is software configurable througheither the craft menus, SNMP, or TL1 manage-ment interfaces.The U-interface pairs are accessed at theeight 64-pin Champ connectors on thebackplane. Each circuit carries 144 kbps serialdata over the subscriber loops, up to amaximum distance of 18,000 feet, over a26 AWG copper pair. This service can be deliv-ered over standard repeatered U-interfacecircuits.Octal IDSLTotal Access DSLAM Octal IDSL Module
