Page 9: Getting Additional Help
This user guide provides the installation and configuration requirements for the Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer, a modular gateway that works with Canopy Backhaul Modules to enable up to four T1 (or up to three E1) circuits to be extended over Ethernet networks. -
Page 10: Ethernet Interface
The T1/E1 Multiplexer converts the data stream from T1/E1 ports into Ethernet packets that are then transported over the Canopy BH link. This device can be used to extend T1/E1 services. You can configure the Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer to operate as either a T1 or an E1 device. -

Page 18: License Keys
1.3.2 License Keys Each Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer is purchased and shipped as 1-port enabled or 4-port enabled. You can upgrade any pair of 1-port enabled Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexers through the purchase and installation of ◦ two keys, one per unit, to transform both to 2-port enabled. -
Page 19: Channel Modes
Channel Modes T1 Channel Mode While in T1 mode, the Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer operates as a DSX-1 interface in a DSU channel mode. There are no user options to change this mode. The DSU channel mode can operate within five line lengths, each providing compensation for the length of the T1 line. - Page 20 ◦ HDB3 The Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer fulfills the role of a transparent T1/E1 extender. As such, it is compatible with either AMI, B8ZS, or HDB3 coding of signals. The endpoints determine which of the zero suppression techniques will be applied to the signal. The Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer must be set to match the zero suppression settings at the endpoints of the signal.
-
Page 21: Signaling
Failure to do so may result in frame slips. The consequence for which could be a degradation of quality. The clock for a T1/E1 circuit is normally derived from the incoming T1/E1 signal. T1/E1 circuits are typically connected in a master-slave configuration where the master has more accuracy than the slave. -
Page 22: Figure 7: Master And Secondary Clock Settings (Top View)
Note: If neither the Master or Slave port is active, then the system will start at Port 1 and search in logical order until it finds an active T1/E1 port, at which time it will assume this to be the Master clock source. -
Page 23: Figure 8: Master Timing Set To Loopback Mode
Loss of Clock Signal Should the Master port not be able to track the incoming T1/E1 bit stream due to a loss of signal, then the unit will use the Secondary port as the clock source. Once the Master T1 recovers synchronization by locking onto the signal, the unit will revert to using the Master port as the clock source. -
Page 24: Figure 9: Slave Timing Set To Recovered Mode
When a Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer is inserted between two T1 devices, the clocking should be configured in the same manner as it would be without the Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer. For example, when the Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer is inserted between the two PBXs, the one PBX will remain as the master clock source and the other PBX will remain as the slave clock source. -
Page 25: Ethernet Throughput
Canopy T1/E1 Multiplexer will take the timing signal from the incoming T1/E1, derive the clock and then return the clock to the T1/E1 device. The external clock source may be obtained from any number of sources including Carrier services, GPS, or other high- quality clock source. -
Page 26: Vlan Support
2 conditions: a loss of incoming T1/E1 signal (in which case AIS is sent out to the far end and the same for the other end losing T1/E1 signal) and a loss of BH link (in which case the AIS is sent in both directions). -
