E1, T1 and STM-1 Groomers - Hi-Z Non-Intrusive
Hi-Impedance Monitoring Solutions |
Description
Valiant offers a wide range of STM-1, E1 and T1 Groomers for
non-intrusive monitoring applications. The VCL-MegaConnect
STM-1, E1 and T1, Hi-Z Monitoring Groomers may be used for
non-intrusive monitoring of "live" STM-1, E1 and T1 traffic
links, non-intrusively, through a high impedance monitoring
point on a patch panel or a DDF. The equipment also allows the
user to groom the selected time-slots carrying the monitored
data to selected STM-1, E1 or T1 normal impedance ports which
can be connected to protocol analysers, probes, test equipment,
billing servers etc.
E1 VCL-MegaConnect Groomer offers
bidirectional monitoring and
unidirectional monitoring modes.

Product Description:
The VCL-MegaConnectTM,
64 Port E1 Groomer, occupies only a 6U high rack-space, and is a compact 19-inch
stand-alone unit. The unit operates on a -48VDC input power-supply. An AC input adapter is
also optionally available for AC mains operation. The equipment is provided with both,
RS232 Serial Interface for COM Port connection and as well as a TCP/IP LAN Interface
(10BaseT) for providing equipment access through Telnet over a LAN/TCP/IP link. The user
may select and use either of these ports for executing HyperTerminal text commands for
configuration etc. The access for configuration and system management is provided through
CLI (Command Line Interface) text commands which may be executed either from a serial
(COM) Port of a PC, or through the TCP/IP 10/100BaseT LAN Interface.
The 10/100BaseT LAN Interface allows the
equipment to be connected on a TCP/IP network for remote access for configuration and
monitoring over LAN/TCP/IP link, remotely. The system is also supplied with an easy to use
Windows (95, 98, Me, XP) Graphical User Interface that provides the user a complete
control to prepare multiple configuration "maps" and store them. Dry contact
relay alarm output is also available at rear of the system to connect the system to
external audio/visual alarm output though a dry relay contact.
Bidirectional Monitoring
In bidirectional mode the groomer is capable
of non-intrusively monitoring upto 30 "live" E1 links and then groom the
selected time-slots to the 4 E1 Ports provided in the equipment. The 60, E1 receivers of
the groomer shall connect to the 30, E1 "live traffic" links which are to be
monitored, non-intrusively.
The Groomer is capable of monitoring a
-20dBdsx (0.3Volt Pulse) E1 signal through a Hi-Z path, without in any way affecting or
disturbing the "live" E1 traffic that is required to be monitored.
The equipment offers the user with complete
flexibility to choose and select time-slots from each of the 30 E1 links that are being
monitored, without limitation or restrictions, through the internal TSI non-blocking
switch (data received by the equipment's 60 E1 receivers) and then aggregate the selected
time-slots to the 4 E1 ports that shall connect to the test equipment, such as protocol
analysers/test probes, billing servers etc.
Unidirectional Monitoring
In unidirectional mode the Groomer is
capable of non-intrusively monitoring upto 60 "live" E1 links and then groom the
selected time-slots to the 4 E1 Port provided in the equipment. The 60, E1 receivers of
the Groomer shall connect to the 60, E1 "live traffic" links which are to be
monitored, non-intrusively.
