Cabling and Configuring the
CES Port Adapter Modules
This chapter describes cabling and configuration procedures for the LightStream 1010
asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch circuit emulation service (CES) T1 and E1 port
adapter modules (PAMs). When your switch leaves the factory, it is configured as specified
inyourorderandisreadyforinstallationandstartup.Asyourcommunicationrequirements
change, you might want to upgrade your system, add components, or change the initial
configuration.
The following CES T1 and E1 PAMs are described in this chapter:
•CES T1 Twisted-pair Port Adapter Module
•CES E1 Twisted-pair Port Adapter Module
•CES E1 BNC Port Adapter Module
Software and upgrades require specific document part numbers and other frequently
updated information; therefore, only basic software configuration guidelines are included
in this publication. Detailed, up-to-date instructions are included in the LightStream 1010
ATM Switch Software Configuration Guide and command line interface (CLI) command
descriptions are provided in the LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Command Reference.
This chapter contains the following information:
•Overview of the CES Port Adapter Modules
•Connecting the Interface Cables and Checking the LEDs
•Configuring the Interfaces

This equipment uses USOC jacks as listed in Table 8-1:
Table 8-1 USOC Jacks for CES Port Adapter Modules
Overview of the CES Port Adapter Modules
The circuit emulation service (CES) T1 and E1 Port Adapter Modules (see Figure 8-1) are
ideal for links that require constant bit rate (CBR) services such as interconnecting PBXs,
time-division multiplexers, and video conference equipment over campus, public, or
private networks. The four ports on the PAM can be configured as redundant links using the
switch's routing protocols. The T1 PAMs support UTP connectors and the E1 PAMs
support either twisted-pair, STP, or 75-ohm BNC connectors. Status and carrier detect
LEDs on each port give quick, visual indications of port status and operation. For detailed
network management support, comprehensive statistics gathering and alarm monitoring
capabilities are provided.

Overview of the CES Port Adapter Modules
Figure 8-1 Typical CES T1 or E1 Port Adapter Module (UTP Port Shown)
Each of the ports on the PAM can be configured to support the following clocking options:
•self-timing based on a Stratum 4 level clock
•loop timing from the received data stream—ideal for public network connections
•timing synchronized to a selected master clock port, required in order to distribute a
single clock across a network
The plug-and-play mechanisms of the LightStream 1010 allows the switch to come up
automatically. All configuration information for port adapter modules can be saved
between hot swaps and switch reboots, while interface types are automatically discovered
by the switch. This eliminates mandatory manual configuration.
The LightStream 1010 supports any combination of port adapter modules. Customers can
configure their switches with only the number and type of interfaces required, with up to
32 CES T1 or CES E1 interface ports.

Connecting the Interface Cables and Checking the LEDs
Connecting the Interface Cables and Checking the LEDs
All CES interfaces are bidirectional. You must use the appropriate CES interface cable to
connect the CES BNC or twisted-pair PAM interface with an external CES network.
This section describes the following:
•CES Connection Equipment
•Connecting the Interface Cables and Checking the LEDs
CES Connection Equipment
For CES traffic over twisted-pair, use the RJ-48C connect to connect the CES T1 PAM or
CES E1 PAM to the external CES network. See the section “Preparing Network
Connections” in the chapter “Preparing for Installation” for a description of an RJ-48C
connector and twisted-pair and shielded twisted-pair cable.
For coaxial traffic, use the BNC connector to connect the CES E1 PAM with the external
CES network. See the section “Preparing Network Connections” in the chapter “Preparing
for Installation” for a description of a BNC connector and coaxial cable.
CES T1 and E1 PAM Network Connections and LEDs
The CES T1 and CES E1 PAMs provide an interface to CES switching fabrics for
transmitting and receiving data at up to 1.544 Mbps (T1) and 2.048Mbps (E1)
bidirectionally. The PAM LEDs provide status information for the port adapter module’s
individual interface connections.
Caution T1 and E1 port must be connected to an NT1 device.
CES Network Connections
All CES T1 and CES E1 interfaces are bidirectional. You must use the appropriate CES
interface cable to connect the CES T1 or CES E1 PAM with an external CES network.

Connecting the Interface Cables and Checking the LEDs
The CES PAM can support interfaces that connect to the following physical layers:
•E1 G.703 with HDB3 coding
•E1 2.048 Mbps coaxial cable
Connect the CES interface cables as shown in Figure 8-3. For detailed descriptions of ATM
cabling requirements, refer to the sections “Distance Limitations” and “ATM Connection
Equipment” in the chapter “Preparing for Installation.”
CES T1 and E1 Module LEDs
This section describes the LEDs on the faceplate of the CES modules, shows their possible
illumination states, and defines the operational status of the associated ports, given certain
illumination patterns of the LEDs.
The LEDs provide status information for the port adapter module’s individual BNC and
twisted-pair interface connections. The LEDs are shown in Figure 8-3.

Table 8-2 LED Illumination States of CES T1 or CES E1 PAMs
Table 8-3 shows the possible status conditions of a CES T1or CES E1 port, as indicated by
certain settings of associated port LEDs.
Table 8-3 Port Status Conditions Indicated by CES T1 or CES E1 LEDs
Note During alarm integration, the indicated LEDs will flash the “upcoming” or “next”
state combination indicated in Table 8-3. For example, when the line conditioning state
machine is notified of loss of signal (LOS), it will cause S1 and S2 to flash red, since a
continued LOS will put the port in the red alarm state.
Port LEDs Illumination States
S1 (status1) Steady green, red, or yellow; flashing green, red, or yellow; or off.
S2 (status2 Steady green, red, or yellow; flashing green, red, or yellow; or off.
CD (carrier detect) Either on (green) or off.
Port Status Indication S1 LED State S2 LED State CD LED State

Cabling and Configuring the CES Port Adapter Modules 8-11
Configuring the Interfaces
Configuring the Interfaces
When the switch is powered on initially without any previous configuration data, the ATM
interfaces are automatically configured on the physical ports. ILMI and the physical card
type are used to automatically derive the ATM interface type, UNI version, maximum
virtual path identifier (VPI) and virtual channel identifier (VCI) bits, ATM interface side,
and ATM UNI type.
Default ATM Interface Configuration Without Autoconfiguration
If ILMI has been disabled or if the connecting end node does not support ILMI, the
following defaults are assigned to all CES T1 and CES E1 interfaces:
•ATM interface type = UNI
•UNI version = 3.0
•Maximum VPI bits = 8
•Maximum VCI bits = 14
•ATM interface side = network
•ATM UNI type = private
•Loopback = no loop
•Signaling mode = no signaling
•Clock-source = network derived
•Data format = clear channel
•Timing = synchronous
•Line build out = 0 to 110 feet
•Cell delay variation = 2,000 microseconds
•Channel associated signaling = false
•Partial fill = 47

8-12 LightStream 1010 ATM Switch PAM Installation Guide
Configuring the Interfaces
The following PAM types have specific defaults assigned:
CES T1 PAM:
•Framing = ESF
•Line coding = B8ZS
•Line state = no alarm
CES E1 PAM:
•Line type = E1
•Line coding = HDB3
•International bits = 0x3
•National bits = 0x1f
•Multi-frame spare bits = 0xb
The following defaults apply for all versions of the CES modules, unless you change them
manually by means of specific CLI commands issued during module configuration:
•CES-IWF AAL1 service unstructured—This default setting automatically
establishes unstructured (clear channel) CES services for a CES module.
•CES-IWF AAL1 clock source synchronous—This default setting automatically
establishes synchronous clocking for all CES-IWF operations.
Note You can accept the default ATM interface configuration or overwrite the default
interface configuration using the CLI commands. These commands are described in the
LightStream 1010 ATM Switch Software Configuration Guide, which provides detailed
ATM interface configuration tasks.
This concludes the explanation of the CES T1 and CES E1 port adapter module cabling and
configuration.
