Priority of configuration and command of network management software is higher than
configuration of SW1. Configuration of SW1 is invalid when using network management
software to configure.
Note: The other dip-switch SW2 is a 2-bit switch, which shall be used by manufacturing
people. Users are not advised to change the default status.
3.2.2 Fault-Pass-Through Capability Explanation
When Fault-Pass-Through capability is enabled, there are 3 situations that we call it a link
fault.
1. The equipment will monitor the status of remote Ethernet interface. When it
changes to link down from link up, we take it as a link fault of remote Ethernet. At
the same time, the status of local module will change to link down form link up. It
will not be recovered until the fault disappears at remote site.
2. The equipment will monitor the status of remote E1 interface. When it changes to
loss of signal status from normal, we take is as a link fault of remote E1 link. At the
mean time, the equipment will cut off the transmission of local E1 interface but not
send AIS signal. The local E1 interface will not recover until the fault disappears at
- 5 -

Dynamix Co., Ltd
remote site.
3. The equipment will monitor the status of optical link, either transmitting alarm or
receiving alarm will be taken as an optical link fault. At the mean time, the Ethernet
interface status will change to link down and the E1 interface will be cut off. The
Ethernet interface and E1 interface will not recover until the optical interface
recovers.
The fault-pass-through capability is designed for users who have particular requirements.
When it is disabled, any fault at remote site and at optical interface has nothing to do with
local interfaces; all the interfaces of local module will be open.
In order to avoid misunderstanding, users are advised to use it cautiously. The factory
default status is disabled.
3.2.3 E1 Remote Loop-back Test
"E1 remote loop-back" setup at local Ethernet Multiplexer
Note: when setup any kinds of loop-back at the local Ethernet Multiplexer, the "remote
loop-back" switch at remote Ethernet Multiplexer must be at default status. When the
module is at E1 remote loop-back status, the Ethernet data communication will not be
interfered.
3.2.4 How to Implement Remote Network Management
When the equipment is connected as the following topology, the remote network
management can be implemented.
A. The host-site module is installed in Dynamix's dedicated 16-slot 3U-high chassis,
which also has the network management module installed. The remote-site module
is installed in Dynamix's single slot chassis.
- 6 -

Dynamix Co., Ltd
The both modules are installed in 16-slot 3U-high chassis, but only the host-site
chassis is equipped with network management module. The remote-site module
shall be set to "forced remote network management mode". That is to say, the 8th
switch shall be turned to ON.
4. Installation and Test
4.1 Inspect after Opening
Please first check if the models and part numbers are in consistence, and also check if the
equipments are damaged.
4.2 Preparation before Installation
• Carefully read this manual
• Prepare all kinds of the cable. Ensure that they are not short-circuited. Refer to
Appendix A for cable making.
• Ensure the pressure of power supply is in the tolerance range, the chassis is well
connected with the ground.
• Prepare the BERT and optical power meter for test of line quality.
• Place the equipment at stable and secure environment. Pay attention to the
requirements of the ambience.
4.3 Installation
This module can be installed into Dynamix's dedicated 16-slot 3U-high chassis, 4-slot
1 U-high chassis, and single slot chassis. Slowly insert the module into the slot to the end,
and fasten the fixing screw tightly.
4.3.1 Connecting the Cables
• E1 Interface:
RJ45 socket, 120 Ohm balanced signal.

Dynamix Co., Ltd
Pin 1, 2 for output of first E1 channel, pin 5, 6 for input of first E1 channel
Pin 3, 4 for output of second E1 channel, pin 7, 8 for input of second E1 channel
• Ethernet Interface
Connect with Cat. 5 or hyper Cat. 5 twisted-pair cables. Either straight-through or
crossover cable is OK.
• Optical Interface
Plug the tail fiber into the fiber socket to the end.
4.3.2 Function Configuration
After connecting the cables and applying the power supply, there shall not be alarms at
the optical interface.
If users want to configure the dip-switches, first unplug the module from the chassis and
then use a flat screw-driver to set switches.
5. Troubleshooting
If there is any problem during installation and operation, please try the following solutions. If
the problem still cannot be solved, please contact distributors for technical support. The
following explanations and solutions to optical and E1 LOS alarms are for the local
module. If the alarms are at the remote site, please solve them at remote site.
• Power (PWR) indicator (Green) is not ON
Answer: Power supply fails. Check whether the power supply is working properly
• LAL indicator (Red) at optical interface is ON
Answer: Loss of signal at the optical interface. Check whether the input of optical fiber is
connected properly. Users can test the optical power using optical power meter. The optical
power shall be larger than the receiving sensitivity.
• E1 sub-channel L/R LOS indicator (Red) is ON
Answer: The local E1 sub-channel receiving signal is lost. If the indicator is flashing, it
means the remote E1 sub-channel receiving signal is lost. Please check if the E1 interface
is well connected.
