HDSL DEPLOYMENT GUIDELINES
TheADTRANHDSLsystemisdesignedtoprovideDS1
based services over loops designed to comply with
CarrierServiceArea(CSA)guidelines. CSAdeployment
guidelines are given below.
1. All loops are non-loaded only.
2. For loops with 26-AWG cable, the maximum
looplengthincludingbridgedtaplengthsis9kft.
3. For loops with 24-AWG cable, the maximum
loop length including bridged tap lengths is
12kft.
4. Any single bridged tap is limited to 2kft.
5. Total bridged tap length is limited to 2.5kft.
6. Thetotal lenghtofmulti-gaugecable containing
26-AWG cable must not exceed:
12 -{(3*L26)/9} - LBTAP (in kft)
L26 = Total length of 26-AWG cable excluding
bridged taps (in kft)
LBTAP = Total length of all bridged taps (in kft)
This deployment criteria is summarized in the chart
shown.

When deployment requires the use of two HREs, the
HTU-CMcanbedeployedwithtwoLowVoltageT400
HREs (1244.041L2) and one Low Voltage HTU-R
(1245.021L1 or 1245.026L1).
