3 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 General Information about FlexDSL Orion3
The FlexDSL Orion3 SHDSL.bis Extended product family offers a broad range of products,
which are based on the latest SHDSL.bis standards (ITU-T G.991.2 & ETS TS 101 524), while
also being fully interoperable with all our existing SHDSL equipment (Orion1 & Orion2). The
FlexDSL Orion3 supports TC-PAM16/32 and the new TC-PAM4/8/64/128 line coding. The
support of these line codes ensures compatibility with existing SHDSL equipment that is already
installed, in order to protect customer investments, while at the same time providing an upgrade
path to the newest DSL technologies.
SHDSL.bis Extended allows symmetrical data and voice transmission at speeds up to 15.2Mbps
over a single pair of copper. In addition, the FlexDSL Orion3 modem range also supports DSL
channel bonding for up to 4 copper pairs in order to achieve speeds to 60.8Mbps! FlexDSL
Orion3 SHDSL.bis Extended modems can provide up to 4 complete E1 interfaces, which
support framed and unframed services (G.703/G.704). An integrated 2 or 4 port Ethernet layer 2
managed switch with VLAN support (10/100BaseT) ensures connectivity to IP services. Beside
of E1 and Ethernet we have additional interfaces like Nx64 that can be configured to be a V.35,
V.36, X.21 or V.28 interface (cable selected). Also RS-232 and RS-485 (asynchrounous) are
available. This makes FlexDSL Orion3 SHDSL.bis Extended modems a perfect solution for a
wide range of applications in which TDM and IP services need to be transmitted over copper
wires.
Like all FlexDSL Orion products, the Orion3 SHDSL.bis Extended modems family is based on
industrial components and is manufactured according to highest quality standards providing
additional value due to the extended temperature range and higher reliability.
The FlexDSL Orion3 SHDSL.bis Extended product family consists of
LTU devices (Line Termination Units)
Usually Central Office Equipment.
LTU’s can be powered from local DC power supply. (36-72VDC)
LTU’s has the possibility to have an on board remote power (120/200VDC).
NTU devices (Network Termination Units)
Usually Customer Premise Equipment.
NTU’s can be powered from local DC power supply.
NTU’s can be powered remotely from LTU’s.

Increase (double) the distance.
RR’s can be powered:
•locally with DC voltage.
•remotely from LTU’s.

3.2.3 Remote Power Supply and Wetting Current
Orion3 RR devices do not support the wetting current termination like the LTU device. To have
wetting current means to remote power the RR device. The remote power supply modes can be
changed by jumpers and the LP/DP switch (LP means local powering, DP means
distance/remote powering). Despite the safe voltage on each DSL copper wire with respect to
the ground (<120 Volts according to EN 60950), the use of the remote power supply has to be
done strictly according to the following rules:
•When working with DSL copper lines make sure that the remote power is switched off.
•The insulation of cable pairs, junctions (junction boxes, distribution frames, etc.) should be
checked against the remote power voltage (norms and standards of the network)
3.2.3.1 Compatibility of Remote Power and Wetting Current Supply Modes
Devices operating in pairs should be configured for mutual operation! The mode «» means
recommended and possible.
The use of the mode «-» is not recommended because it may cause high power consumption,
degradation of communication (communication stability), and additional safety measures.
The mode «inc» (incompatible) will not allow the devices to establish communication (because
in this case one or both devices will be de-energized).

3.2.4 Description of Orion3 Interfaces
3.2.4.1 SHDSL Interface
The Orion3 devices are available with 1, 2 or 4 SHDSL interfaces. The interfaces can operate
fully independent of each other as well as they can be combined to operate in multipair mode.
Therefore all independent SHDSL interfaces and groups of SHDSL interfaces (multipair mode)
can be configured separately from each other. The multipair mode, the reservation mode and
the automatic configuration detection mode naturally limit the independent working.
All SHDSL interfaces support plesiochronous data transmission. It means that reference clock
frequencies, which are used to clock data transmission, are transmitted together with the data in
different directions of one SHDSL link. The clock frequencies of different SHDSL channels are
completely independent if they do not operate in the multipair mode.
An SHDSL channel working in the independent mode can simultaneously transmit one or
several E1 streams, Nx64 or RS-232/485 data and one WAN stream. E1 transmission is
plesiochronous. All E1 streams received by one SHDSL interface should use the same clock
frequency in one direction.
