DescriptionVCL-MegaConnect, 64 T1 Port Plus Groomer for Hi-Z monitoring provides upto
32 T1 links (64 T1 Ports) plus 16 additional spare T1 ports (Normal-Z) to connect to the
measurement-probe, billing servers etc. The T1 Monitoring Groomer is available for special
non-intrusive monitoring (high impedance) applications in which T1 ports can be connected
to monitoring / billing equipment for non-intrusive monitoring of live traffic or
signaling, required by billing servers etc.
The Groomer (T1 Monitoring DACS) is capable of monitoring a
-20dBdsx (0.3Volt Pulse) T1 signal through a Hi-Z path, without in any way
disturbing the
live T1 traffic that is required to be monitored. The T1 connector(s) shall be RJ45 (100
Ohms) and a "Y" cable is provided (included) to connect T1 Groomer equipment to
the T1 Ports that are required to be monitored.
The user shall have the full flexibility to choose and
select upto a maximum of 24 time-slots (to be monitored in BOTH transmit and receive
direction), through the internal TSI non-blocking switch, from any of the 24 T1 ports that
are required to be monitored.
