1.1 General
1.101 The purpose of this document is to provide information to aid technicians in
understanding the Model 5702 RouteSwitch system. A general and a detailed
description of the RouteSwitch and the procedures for installing and testing it are
included.

1.102 Issue 10 of this manual applies to components referenced in Section 7, Equipment Issue
Information.

1.103 Note the admonishments in the form of CAUTIONS that appear in the text from time to
time. They indicate the presence of a hazard that can cause personal injury or
equipment damage if not avoided.

1.104 This document re-issue is intended to document Model 5702 List 1B and to explain its
relationship to List 1 and List 1A cards, as well as to clarify misleading statements and
correct errors from earlier issues of this document.

1.105 Model 5702 List 1B is extremely similar to List 1 and List 1A cards. These cards are
physically/visually identical except for the identification markings for List number and the
software contained within the PROM chips. The U3 PROM chip has different software
number markings (e.g. 058-90188-000) to agree with different List versions. Operational
differences are very slight.

1.106 If there are no intelligent network elements along the two transmission facilities, then List
1 and List 1A may be the best choices. If there are intelligent network elements, then List
1B may be the best choice.

1.107 An example of an intelligent network element would be a smart CSU. If LOS appears
on the network side, it forwards AIS to the CPE side. List 1B reacts differently to AIS as
compared with List 1 or List 1A. A dumb network element does not significantly change
the T1 signal progressing in one direction.

RouteSwitch System Description 2

_______________________________________________________

2.1 General
2.101 The RouteSwitch is a Digital Signal Level 1 (DS1) ring diversity switch that provides cost
effective, self-healing network capabilities in the event of cable cuts, electronic failures,
or node failures. A typical RouteSwitch system application appears in Figure 2-1. As
shown, protection for the incoming DS1 signal at the central office RouteSwitch is
provided by duplicating the DS1 signal and routing the duplicated signals over separate
transmission paths (the T-carrier and fiber optic facilities). At the receiving end (customer
premises), the RouteSwitch monitors the duplicated DS1 signals and delivers the better
signal of the two (or the unfailed signal) to its destination. Protection is provided in the
same manner in the reverse direction when the incoming DS1 signal is at the customer
premises RouteSwitch. If one of the DS1 facilities has a failure, the RouteSwitch
transfers the signals from the failed DS1 facility to the working DS1 facility to restore and
improve end-to-end service. A simplified schematic diagram of the RouteSwitch system
is shown in Figure 2-2.

2.102 The RouteSwitch provides 1 + 1 single ended protection for DS1 lines and is available in
two shelf types:

Model 5702 List 2 (L2) and List 2A (L2A), DS1 terminals which provide protection for
one DS1 facility. These models include two Model 5702 List 1 (L1) or List 1A (L1A)
circuit packs, depending on the shelf type. The Model 5702 List 11 (L11), which
accepts either the L1 or L1A, is identical in configuration but circuit packs are not
included.

Model 5702 List 3A (L3A), a 19/23-inch shelf which provides protection for up to six
DS1 facilities and accepts either type of circuit pack.

2.103 The RouteSwitch system provides several switch selectable options which include
switching delay interval, bit error rate (BER) switching thresholds, revertive/nonrevertive
operating modes, and bipolar eight zero substitution (B8ZS) or alternate mark inversion
(AMI) line coding. The system automatically detects superframe (SF) and extended
superframe (ESF) framing formats in the DS1 input signal and performs the appropriate
monitoring for protection switching.

________

2.104 Once a failed DS1 facility has switched to protection, and if the revertive mode
option is set, the RouteSwitch can return traffic automatically to the original
DS1 facility when the failure is no longer present. An incoming DS1 signal (DS1
IN) from the digital signal crossconnect (DSX-1) is separated into two identical
signals prior to delivery to the RouteSwitch's working and protection circuit
packs. These signals are called DS1 transmit working (DS1 TW) and DS1
transmit protection (DS1 TP). Two DS1 facility signals, DS1 receive working
(DS1 RW) and DS1 receive protection (DS1 RP), are monitored by the
RouteSwitch working and protection circuit packs, respectively. Upon power up,
the RouteSwitch working circuit pack monitors the facility signal until a failure or
degraded performance level condition is detected. At such a time, a switch is
made to the protection channel provided that it has a better signal. End-to-end
communication between the RouteSwitch circuit packs is not required to
accomplish the switch. In Extended Superframe Format, the working and
protection ESF facility data links (FDLs) are passed unaltered. In Superframe
Format, there is no FDL.
2.105 A switch from the working channel to the protection channel is initiated when an
alarm is generated due either to detection of a loss of signal (LOS) condition,
out of frame (OOF) event, or alarm indication signal (AIS) condition or the BER
threshold being met or exceeded on the working channel. List 1B cards will
accept AIS as a hard fail stimulus; List 1A cards will not.
2.106 Switch-selectable switching delay intervals allow adequate time for the
completion of automatic protection switching of intermediate multiplexers or line
equipment due to equipment failure. Delay intervals are provided for both soft
and hard failures. Soft failures result from the BER exceeding the threshold.
Hard failures usually result from LOS or OOF for List 1A cards; LOS, OOF, or
AIS for List 1B cards.
2.107 The system can operate in either revertive or nonrevertive mode. In the
nonrevertive mode, once a protection switch is made the RouteSwitch switches
back to the working channel if, and only if, a failure is detected on the protection
channel that is more severe than that of the working channel. Otherwise,
service remains on the protection channel. In the revertive mode, a switched
channel automatically switches back 5 minutes after either a soft or hard failure
condition is cleared. If a second failure is detected on the protection channel
that is more severe than the original failure, the RouteSwitch switches back to
the working channel while the original failure is still present. The switchback
does not occur until at least 10 seconds after the first switch.
2.108 Both local and remote control of the RouteSwitch switching function are
possible. Manual control of the switching function is available through a button
activation on the circuit pack faceplate. Remote control is available through the
E2A interface.
2.109 All customer DS1 alarm and control connections are made through the
connectorized backplane on the equipment shelf.
2.1010 Contact closures for local alarms are accessible through a terminal block
(TB2) on the equipment shelf backplane. These include a fuse alarm, visual

2.13 Ordering Information

2.131 Ordering information for RouteSwitch equipment is as follows:

Circuit Pack 5702 L1/L1A/L1B

RouteSwitch DT (2-slot, 19/23-inch shelf; 2 circuit
packs) 5702 L2/L2A

RouteSwitch 19/23-inch Shelf 5702 L3A
RouteSwitch 19/23-inch Shelf Front Guard 007-00495-000

2.2 Detailed RouteSwitch Information

2.201 The RouteSwitch is comprised of an equipment shelf containing appropriate
circuit packs in one of the following shelf arrangements:

A DS1 terminal (5702 L2/L2A/L11) which has 2 slots with (L2/L2A) or

without (L11) circuit packs and provides protection for one DS1 facility
(refer to Figure 2-4).

A 19/23-inch shelf (5702 L3A) which has 12 slots for circuit packs and
provides protection for up to 6 DS1 facilities (refer to Figure 2-5). A
summary alarm module within the shelf provides alarm relay points

2.202 The L3A shelf has an ACO pushbutton and an associated yellow LED on the
right front side. The ACO button disables the shelf and E2A audible major and
minor alarms. The LED lights to indicate that the button has been pressed and
extinguishes when the alarm(s) is cleared.

2.203 Two identical circuit packs are required to protect each DS1 channel. One
monitors and controls the working channel, the other monitors and controls the
protection channel. The protection circuit pack is on the left (odd numbered
slots) and the working (service carrying) pack is on the right (even numbered
slots). The two identical circuit packs must have the same List number and
must have identical user option switch settings (except for BER, which is not
required to be identical).

2.204 A designation strip on the L3A shelf is labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F for the
protection groups. PROT and WRKG designate the protection and working
circuit pack in each group.

2.205 The L3A shelf may be equipped with an optional transparent front guard which
is labeled the same as the designation strip. The guard should remain in place
except when maintenance operations are being performed.

2.21 RouteSwitch Circuit Pack

2.211 The 5702 L1 or L1A or L1B circuit pack is used in the RouteSwitch for both
protection and working channels. It can be identified by the RouteSwitch
nomenclature on the faceplate (refer to Figure 2-6), a barcode on the back side
of the faceplate, and nomenclature on the component side of the board (refer to
Figure 2-7). The list number (LIST [ ]) and issue number (ISSUE [ ]) appear on
the component side of the board. The Model number and List number also
appear prominently on one PROM chip label.

2.212 The role of each circuit pack is defined by its assigned shelf slot. A circuit pack
in an odd numbered slot functions as a protection unit and one in an even
numbered slot functions as a working unit. Note that functions are slightly
different between the two. Figure 2-6 shows the faceplate with LEDs,
pushbutton switch, seven segment display, monitor jacks, and fuse holder.
Figure 2-7 shows the circuit board with option switch locations.

2.213 The faceplate LEDs function as follows:

________

ALARM Red LED that is off when the facility and the circuit pack are
operating properly. It lights steadily to indicate that the facility
has become faulty as defined by the OOF, LOS, and BER
criteria or to indicate a circuit pack failure. The LED flashes to
indicate an OOF, LOS, or AIS on the DS1 IN port. If the LED on
one circuit pack is glowing steadily, a minor alarm is indicated. If
the LEDs on both circuit packs are glowing steadily, a major
alarm is indicated.

DS1 IN Green LED that lights when the DS1 IN signal from the equipment
is present. It extinguishes when there is no usable DS1 IN
signal (including the AIS).

SWITCHED Yellow LED that lights on the working circuit pack when traffic is
switched to the protection circuit pack. Normally the LED is off
when the working circuit pack is carrying the traffic. It does not
light on the protection circuit pack.

ACTIVE Green LED that lights when the circuit pack is receiving traffic
(indicates a good receiver). It does not indicate transmission of
a signal.

2.214 The faceplate SWITCH pushbutton is operable only on the working circuit pack.
On the first push, service is forced from whichever channel it was on to the
opposite channel and locked there (automatic switching disabled). A decimal
point in the seven segment display indicates manual lock operation. On the
second push, automatic switching is reenabled and the decimal point is erased.
Depending upon line conditions and operating mode (revertive or nonrevertive),
a switchback may occur.

'P' Appears at power up. A protection circuit pack displays the P and a
decimal point (P.).

If the _P_ is not followed by a second character, the sanity and self check tests
have failed. Remove and replace the pack to prevent possible service interruption.

'C' Flashes to indicate circuit pack failure. Further definition of failure is

provided by the C flashing alternately with one of the following:

'P' Power converter or front panel fuse failure

'E' Failed equipment framer chip
't' Failed equipment line chip
'F' Failed facility framer chip
'y' Failed facility line chip

Any of these five failure conditions causes a CP card alarm and a

minor alarm. The 'E', 't', 'F', and 'y' conditions take the circuit pack out
of service and cause a traffic switch. The 'P' condition does not take
the circuit pack out of service since the remaining circuitry is

Indicate the facility BER. If the BER falls below its defined threshold
switch setting, the BER character starts flashing. If the BER falls below

10 but is above the set BER threshold, the solid BER character is
displayed. If a condition other than BER exceeding the threshold is
causing the alarm, the display will not flash. Neither will it flash when an
alarm timeout is in process (up to 20 seconds). A decimal point
indicates that the system has been locked into manual mode by means
of the SWITCH button.

Intermittent failures may cause one or more status characters to be

displayed in rapid sequence. Observe displays carefully to determine
causes.

2.216 There are two test monitoring (MON) jacks:

DS1 IN Monitor point for test set access of DS1 IN signal from the equipment.

2.22 Circuit Pack Operation

2.221 The RouteSwitch circuit packs switch the terminal equipment to and from a
transmission facility based on certain failure conditions. The decision to switch
is made in the following order of priority:

a. (Hard Failure) List 1, 1A, or 1B. OOF event declared upon the detection of
2 out of 5 consecutive framing bits in error or LOS declared upon detection
of 175 75 consecutive zeros (no pulses) on a DS1 channel. A circuit pack
declares a failure 10 milliseconds after the declaration of an OOF or LOS
event to verify that the event is genuine and not a temporary interruption
due to other causes.

b. (Hard Failure) List 1B only. A facility AIS which causes the associated
circuit pack to transmit AIS (continuous unframed 1s toward the equipment
side, also called blue signal) until the facility becomes protected. The switch
only occurs from an AIS which originates on either DS1 receive working
(RW) or DS1 receive protection (RP). The OOF or LOS or AIS failure
condition is declared clear after 20 seconds of continuous in-frame
operation.

c. (Soft Failure) List 1, 1A, or 1B. BER which meets or exceeds the selected
BER threshold on the circuit pack if the protection channel has a better
calculated BER. A BER failure condition is declared clear when the
calculated BER improves beyond the BER threshold.

2.222 The facility LOS or OOF is detected at the receiving end circuit pack. It takes
the circuit pack a certain number of milliseconds to verify that hard fail condition
and decide to transfer. The transfer is quickly completed under normal
circumstances. It would not complete (traffic would stay on the original path) if a
partner circuit pack were failed, removed, inhibited, or otherwise in alarm

2.223 With the 5702 L1A circuit pack, AIS is sent only while a faulted signal is seen
on the facility receive. The 20-second alarm will remain but the AIS will not. AIS
is not sent during the full 20-second alarm unless a faulted signal is verified
during the 20-second alarm. The blue signal will not be transmitted after the
good signal is detected.

Scenario for selecting this option: The user has a channel bank at the far end.
When a near end experiences a short LOS burst, the LOS propagates to the far
end facility receive and the alarm is turned on for 20 seconds. During the
20-second time period, AIS is sent to the channel bank and causes the channel
bank to go to Carrier Group Alarm. Thus, AIS is sent only while a faulted signal
is seen on the facility receive. The 20-second alarm remains but the AIS does
not.

2.224 With either the L1 or L1A, at power up the equipment side framing format is
initialized to SF and thereafter is automatically configured. If the equipment side
format is not SF, an equipment side loss of framing (LOF) is detected. The
CXR Larus 80-100-180 issue 10
September 2007
___________________________________________________________________
________

circuit pack waits 7 seconds to verify that the LOF is not temporary. Once LOF
has been verified, the circuit pack tries the opposite format (ESF) on the
equipment side. If LOF is still present after 100 milliseconds, the circuit pack
reverts to the original framing format.

2.225 The circuit pack calculates the BER depending on the framing format of the
DS1 signal. For ESF formatted DS1 signals, a facility BER is calculated from
cyclic redundancy check (CRC6) algorithm and bipolar violations (BPVs) not
part of a B8ZS pattern and from framing bit errors. For example, when the BER
threshold switch is set to 5, a protection switch is performed if the working
channel BER is 1X10-5 or worse and if the protection channel has a better BER
than the working channel. When the circuit pack is set for the revertive mode, a
switch back to the original channel does not occur until that channel's BER
-6
crosses the 3X10 threshold and stays there for 5 minutes. This transition
-6 -6
between 1X10 and 3X10 prevents sporadic switching and unswitching
(toggling) when the BER is near its threshold setting. Any time a BER exceeds
its threshold setting, the BER on the seven segment display flashes. During
normal operation of the circuit pack, the seven segment display indicates the
BER of the facility.

2.226 When a failure occurs on a working circuit pack, its ALARM LED lights. If the
protection circuit pack has a higher integrity, the working pack switches traffic to
the protection pack and the protection pack's ACTIVE LED comes on. This
indicates that the protection circuit pack is successfully carrying the traffic. The
ACTIVE LED on the working pack is extinguished and the SWITCHED LED
lights.

2.227 If both channels experience a failure or degraded condition, the RouteSwitch

system selects the channel that is less degraded. In all operating conditions,
the system switches within 50 milliseconds unless a soft or hard fail delay is set
by S1 or S2. Refer to paragraph 2.231 below.

2.228 A manual switch may be initiated by pressing the SWITCH button on the
faceplate of the working circuit pack. The ALARM LED and relay are not
activated on either circuit pack but the seven segment display on the working
pack shows a decimal point. The first press of the button disables automatic
protection switching and forces service to the opposite channel, thereby locking
the protection circuit pack into a manual service mode. When the SWITCH
button is pressed a second time, the manual mode is unlocked, automatic
protection switching resumes, and the decimal point disappears. Depending
upon line condition and operating mode (revertive or nonrevertive), a
switchback may occur. A manual switch cannot be activated at the protection
circuit pack.

a customer-provided alarm concentrator with -48 Vdc bias will sense the E2A
lines going open or electronic ground. If a positive external bias (e.g., +5
Vdc) exists, the E2A status line will not function.

2.23 Circuit Pack Option Switches

2.231 Options are manually selected with switches located on the circuit pack board
(refer to Figure 2-7). The switches function as follows:

SOFT FAIL DELAY (S1). Rotary type switch sets BER switching delay from 0 to
10 seconds. Switch positions and corresponding values are listed in Table 2-A.
The 0, 7, 8, and 9 positions give a delay interval of 0. However, switching
occurs within 50 milliseconds.

HARD FAIL DELAY (S2). Rotary type switch sets switching delay resulting from
an OOF, LOS, or AIS from 0 to 5 seconds. Switch positions and corresponding
values are listed in Table 2-B. The 0, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 positions give a delay
interval of 0. However, switching occurs within 50 milliseconds.

BER THRESH (S3). Rotary type switch sets bit error rate threshold to zero or
-3 -9
from 10 to 10 . Switch positions and corresponding values are listed in Table
2-C. The 0, 1, and 2 positions will not allow a switch regardless of the bit error
rate.

REV/NON REV (S4). Two-position switch sets circuit pack to operate in either
revertive (REV) or nonrevertive (NON REV) mode.

AMI/B8ZS (S5). Two-position switch sets circuit pack to operate with AMI or
B8ZS line coding.

2.24 RouteSwitch Powering

2.241 If there is no -48VDC central office battery plant, then AC-DC power rectifer
modules may be used. It would be important to have separate modules to
power the A side and B side power input to the RouteSwitch shelf.

2.242 The RouteSwitch can be powered directly by the -48 Vdc central office battery
through a feeder fuse. Two -48 Vdc power leads are required (A and B feeders)
for the protection channel(s) and working channel(s). For the L3A shelf, each
feeder should be fused at 7.5 Amps. The A feeder powers the odd-numbered
slots and the B feeder powers the even-numbered slots. The L2/L2A/L11 shelf
is diode-ORed and the fuses should be 2 Amps. Adjacent odd and even circuit
packs can share low voltage power to maintain operation in the event of card
power converter failure.

2.25 Maximum Cable Length

2.251 In normal operation, the maximum cable length from the RouteSwitch to either
the facility side or terminal equipment side DSX-1 crossconnect is 133 feet. The
RouteSwitch is designed so that, in the unlikely event of a total system failure,
the signal simply passes through the RouteSwitch over the cabling from the
facility to the equipment. In this metallic pass through mode, signal levels at the
DSX-1 crossconnect may be outside the pulse

2.251 (continued)

mask specification until RouteSwitch service is restored if the total cable length
from the facility side to equipment side DSX-1 crossconnect exceeds 133 feet.
Cable distance limits are shown in Figure 2-8.

Note: Lengths between RouteSwitch and DSX-1s are for normal protected
operation. In a metallic pass through mode, DSX-1 level signals may be
outside pulse mask specification until the RouteSwitch is restored.

Figure 2-8. Maximum DS1 Terminal Cable Lengths

2.26 Alarms

2.261 The RouteSwitch provides both local and remote alarm status and control.
Alarm indications are at the circuit pack and shelf levels and at an E2A scanner
(if connected). The interface to the E2A scanner is through shelf connectors J3
on the backplane of the 5702 L2/L2A/L11 shelf (refer to Figure 2-9) and P3 and
P4 on the backplane of the 5702 L3A shelf (refer to Figure 2-10. Alarm and
control connector designations for the RouteSwitch shelves are listed in Tables
2-D and 2-E. Alarm status conditions and control status appear in Tables 2-F
and 2-G, respectively. The E2A scanner status conditions are provided in Table
2-H.

Connector J1 on the 5702 L2/L2A/L11 shelf is not currently in use and should be
ignored by the installer.

2.261 (continued)

At any single end, most E2A alarm interface pins are status outputs. Only
"Transfer" is an event trigger input to cause a transfer action. Transfer pins can be
connected to external telemetry/surveillance equipment set to generate momentary
Ground as the active/transfer trigger; anything else leaves the system in automatic
mode.

Be aware that, if you attempt a rapid transfer back and forth between 5702-1 circuit
packs, you may notice that the E2A status output is lagging behind. This is
because the original E2A specifications prohibited E2A status changes lasting less
than 10 seconds. (This limitation does not apply to the -1A or -1B circuit packs.)

2.262 Alarm indications are classified as either major or minor. A major alarm is
defined as a condition in which both the working and protection circuit packs of
a pair in the shelf are in an alarm state. A minor alarm is a condition in which
only one of the circuit pack pair is in an alarm state.

A major alarm is always accompanied by a minor alarm.

2.263 A fuse alarm condition does not refer to any blown feeder fuse but to an internal
fuse in the blown (alarm) state. The fuse alarm sends negative battery out on
that lead.

2.264 Circuit pack alarm LEDs and relay closures correspond to the condition of the
associated facility. If a facility is failing, the alarm LED lights and an alarm
closure is activated on the corresponding RouteSwitch circuit pack. Summary
major and minor alarm outputs are provided on the equipment shelf (refer to
Figures 2-9 and 2-10 for terminal block identification). Individual RouteSwitch
circuit pack remote alarm information is provided through E2A connectors on
the L3A shelf. Refer to Table 2-E for specific pin designations.

2.265 Alarm LED and relay status conditions on the circuit pack and suggested
maintenance procedures are listed in Table 2-I.

2.266 The 0.5 Amp fuse on each RouteSwitch circuit pack shares the same shelf
alarm contact that provides the shelf fuse alarm. The shelf fuse alarm is located
on terminal 2 of TB1 on the 5702 L2/L2A/L11 shelf (Figure 2-9) and terminal 1
of TB2 on the L3A shelf (Figure 2-10). With no fuse alarm present, the fuse
alarm signal is open. With an alarm present, the fuse alarm circuit closes to -48
Vdc.

Installation 3
_________________________________________________________________

3.1 General
3.101 The RouteSwitch is a rack mounted shelf with integrated working and protection circuit
packs. The general order for installing the RouteSwitch is as follows:

1. Mount the RouteSwitch shelf or shelves.

2. Route, install, connect, and label cables.

3. Verify feeder fuses at power source.

4. Connect power.

5. Verify power.

6. Verify cable connections and grounds.

7. Set options on circuit packs to prepare them for installation.

8. Perform acceptance testing.

9. Establish service.

3.102 Cable distance limits between the RouteSwitch and the digital signal crossconnect
(DSX-1) bays, or equivalent terminations, are shown in Figure 2-8. When making
connections to the RouteSwitch, use the following figures and tables:

5702 L2/L2A/L11 RouteSwitch distant terminal - Figure 2-9 and

3.2 Equipment Installation

Step Procedure

1 Unpack and inspect the RouteSwitch equipment.

2 If there is no electrostatic discharge (ESD) terminal in the bay frame (relay

rack) to be used or an adjacent one, mount such a terminal in the bay frame.
(The terminal screws into the frame.) Attach the ground symbol label near the
terminal.

3 Install the mounting brackets on the shelf in a position that allows the shelf to
be contained within the footprint of the bay frame. Install the shelf into the bay
frame and tighten the mounting bracket screws.

In a central office (CO) environment where power is provided by office battery, a

bay can contain a maximum of eight RouteSwitch shelves. Two -48 V feeders (A
and B) per shelf are required from office battery and connect to the fuse and alarm
panel.

For each of the A and B feeders, provide 7.5 Amp fuses for the L3A shelves and 2
Amp fuses for the L2/L2A/L11 shelves.

If using a power supply with current limiting feature, set the current limit point as
high as possible to avoid a problem of the initial power-on spike activating that
feature and causing card damage due to low voltage.

4 Install heat baffles in the bay frame between the L3A shelves if more than two
shelves are to be installed.

5 Route and place the cables into the cable duct on each side of the bay frame.
Route the appropriate cables to the rear of each shelf.

- For CO battery and ground, the -48 Vdc A and B feeders and ground lead
should be of sufficient gauge size so voltage drop is not exceeded. Refer to
Figure 3-1 for a diagram of the L3A ground connection.

- To ground the RouteSwitch shelf to the bay frame (frame ground), use 14
or 16 gauge stranded or solid wire.

- For the fuse alarm, major and minor visual alarms, and major and minor
audible alarms, use 26 gauge wire.

3.2 (continued)

Step Procedure

Remove any feeder fuses or unplug the power modules before wiring the shelf.

6 Using 26 gauge wire, label the fuse alarm and the major and minor visual and
audible alarm leads that will be connected to the corresponding terminals on
TB1 (Figure 2-9 or 2-10). Leave these leads disconnected for now; they will be
connected during acceptance tests. Wire wrap the other ends of the office
alarms at the central office alarm or other panel.

If wiring external relays to the major and minor visual and audible alarms, a diode
must be connected across the relay coils (to prevent the de-energizing spike from
the relay coil from damaging the Model 5702 equipment).
7 Connect the 14 or 16 gauge frame ground wire to the frame ground terminal on
the L3A shelf as shown in Figure 3-1. For the L2/L2A/L11 shelf, connect the
frame ground wire to the FRM GND terminal of TB1 (refer to Figure 2-9).

8 Connect the -48 Vdc power A and B feeders and ground leads to the
appropriate terminals on TB1 (refer to Figure 2-9 or 2-10).

9 Connect customer equipment Digital Signal Level 1 (DS1) signal cable to the
designated shelf connector on the appropriate backplane (refer to Figure 2-9
and Table 2-D or Figure 2-10 and Table 2-E). Wire wrap the loose ends of this
cable at the equipment DSX-1 crossconnect. Outside of the factory, ignore
connector J1 on the rear of the 5702 L2/L2A/L11 shelf. You may have a real
DSX-1 crossconnect panel that uses bantam jacks, or you may have something
different that uses RJ45 jacks, or it is possible that you have no crossconnect
panel at all (and this will make testing difficult).

10 Connect the protection and working DS1 facility cable assemblies to the
designated shelf connectors on the appropriate backplane with references as
above. Attach the ends of these cables at the facility DSX-1 crossconnect bay.

11 Connect the E2A cable assembly(s) to the designated shelf connector(s) on the
appropriate backplane with references as above. Wire wrap the loose ends of
this cable at the telemetry equipment or distribution frame.

Step Procedure

12 Verify that all cables are properly labeled and have been connected (except for
the office alarm cables).

Make certain that, if any circuit packs have been placed into the shelf, they do not
make connection to the backplane.

13 Apply voltage to the shelf by placing two feeder fuses (one for the A feeder and
the other for the B feeder) in the alarm and fuse panel for the shelf to be tested.
Instead, if the shelf is powered by a power module, insert the AC power plug
into a properly fused AC outlet.

14 Using a volt ohmmeter, measure the voltage between the -48V A terminal and
the PWR GND terminal at TB1 (refer to Figure 2-9 or 2-10). Verify that the
voltage is between -41.75 Vdc and -60 Vdc. (Ideally, the voltage should be
between -45 Vdc and -53 Vdc.)

15 Measure the voltage between the -48V B terminal and the PWR GND terminal.
Verify the voltage as in the previous step.

16 If the voltage is not within the range specified, verify that proper wiring
connections have been made. Correct any wiring errors and follow local
procedures to troubleshoot any further problems.

17 If the voltage is correct, you have completed the shelf installation. Continue
installation by setting the circuit pack options.

3.3 Circuit Pack Option Settings

A grounded wrist strap connected to the ESD jack must be worn while handling the
circuit packs.

Testing 4
_______________________________________________________________________

4.1 General
4.101 Acceptance testing of the RouteSwitch verifies customer cable connections, Digital
Signal Level 1 (DS1) facility cable assembly connections, and circuit pack operation.
These tests must be performed while the RouteSwitch is out of service. Procedures test
the following:

Transmission and receiving and protection switching.

Office alarms and alarm cutoff (ACO).
E2A telemetry.

Office alarm cables were left unconnected during installation of the RouteSwitch.
This was intentional to prevent alarming in the office during acceptance tests. The
cables will be connected during the office alarm and ACO test.

Interruption of service will result if the acceptance tests are run on a system that is
in service.

4.2 Testing Equipment Required

4.201 The following items are required to perform the acceptance tests:

Ground wrist strap

Two digital signal crossconnect (DSX-1) loopback cables
DS1 transmitter data test set and cables
DS1 receiver data test set and cables
Volt ohmmeter

In general, most DS1 test sets have the transmitter and receiver functions contained
within one case.

4.3 Transmission, Protection Switching, Alarm, and E2A

Telemetry Tests
4.301 These tests verify proper operation of the circuit packs, circuit pack positions,
and cabling between the RouteSwitch and DSX-1 crossconnect bays.

4.302 DS1 signals to the RouteSwitch are required. They are generated by means of
DS1 transmitter and receiver data test sets. These tests cannot be performed if
such test sets are not available.

4.303 The procedures that follow are designed to test each circuit pack pair
(channel), one pair at a time, until all pairs in a RouteSwitch shelf have been
tested.

Step Procedure

1 Configure the DS1 transmitter data test set for the following. Most test sets
have the transmitter and receiver contained within one case. Refer to the
manufacturer's instruction manual for the type of data test set you are using.

Pseudo-random binary-pulse sequence (PRBS) [quasirandom signal

source (QRSS)] pattern
Bit errors inject (error free)
Superframe (SF) framing format
Bipolar eight zero substitution (B8ZS) or alternate mark inversion (AMI) line
coding according to circuit pack settings

2 Configure the DS1 receiver data test set for the following. Refer to the
manufacturer's instruction manual for the type of data test set you are using.

PRBS (QRSS) pattern

Bit errors measurement (total)
SF framing format
B8ZS or AMI line coding according to circuit pack settings

3 With reference to Figure 4-1, connect the transmitter data test set to the
equipment DS1 IN jack at the DSX-1 crossconnect for the channel to be tested.
Connect the receiver data test set to the corresponding equipment DS1 OUT
jack at the DSX-1 crossconnect for the channel to be tested.

Step Procedure

4 Place a loopback cable between the corresponding working DS1 facility IN and
OUT jacks at the DSX-1 crossconnect for the channel to be tested. Place a
loopback cable between the corresponding protection DS1 facility IN and OUT
jacks at the DSX-1 crossconnect for the channel to be tested.

5 Set the revertive (REV)/nonrevertive (NON REV) switch on the circuit packs to
be tested to REV.

6 Seat the DS1 working and protection circuit packs to be tested, leaving all
others unseated.

7 Verify that no ALARM light emitting diodes (LEDs) are illuminated on the circuit
packs. If any ALARM LEDs are on, determine whether the problem is with the
shelf or the circuit pack. Replace the faulty unit.

8 Verify that the DS1 IN LEDs are illuminated on the working and protection
circuit packs. This indicates that the circuit packs are receiving a DS1 signal on
the equipment side.

Transmission and Protection Switching Test

9 Press the SWITCH button on the working circuit pack (even numbered slot)
until the ACTIVE LED on this circuit pack lights and the decimal point in the
seven segment display on this circuit pack disappears.

10 Verify that the SWITCHED LED on the working circuit pack and the ACTIVE
LED on the protection circuit pack are extinguished.

11 Verify that error free transmission is being received on the DS1 receiver data
test set through the working channel. If a signal is not detected, that is, loss of
signal (LOS) is observed, isolate and correct the problem by:

Verifying that the data test set cables are connected to the correct
crossconnect position.

Verifying that the DS1 cables are present and connected to both the
RouteSwitch and the DSX-1 crossconnect.

Step Procedure

12 If a signal with errors is observed, isolate and correct the problem. Most
problems can be cleared by checking the receiver data test set for a loss of
frame (LOF) or an all 1s pattern and performing the following:

If LOF occurs, verify that the transmitter and receiver data test sets are set
for a framed format.

If an all 1s pattern occurs [alarm indication signal (AIS) detected], verify that
the equipment DS1 OUT cable is connected to the correct terminals at the
DSX-1 crossconnect.

13 If error free transmission is observed, press the SWITCH button on the working
circuit pack until the ACTIVE LED on the protection circuit pack turns on and
the decimal point in the seven segment display disappears.

14 Verify that the SWITCHED LED on the working circuit pack is on and the
ACTIVE LED is off.

15 Verify that error free transmission is being received on the DS1 receiver data
test set through the protection channel by observing that the ACTIVE LED on
the protection faceplate is on.

16 Unseat the protection circuit pack to inhibit protection switching. Note that an 'A'
flashes in the seven segment display on the working circuit pack. (Protection
has been abandoned.)

17 Verify that the ACTIVE LED on the working circuit pack is on. (This verifies
automatic switching.)

18 Verify that error free transmission is being received on the DS1 receiver data
test set through the working channel.

19 Reseat the protection circuit pack. Note that the flashing 'A' in the seven
segment display on the working circuit pack disappears.

Alarm and E2A Telemetry Test

If the office is equipped with E2A telemetry, communication between personnel at

the RouteSwitch shelf and the E2A scanner display is required. Refer to Table 2-H
for messages that can appear on the E2A scanner display. These are examples
only and may differ from office to office. If the office is not equipped with E2A
telemetry, verify local Major and Minor alarm operation and ignore E2A
requirements
21 Remove the 0.5 Amp fuse from the faceplate of the protection circuit pack and
replace it with a 'blown' fuse. The protection circuit pack seven segment display
alternately flashes a 'C' and 'P'. The 'C' indicates a circuit pack failure and the
'P' (in this case) indicates a front panel fuse failure.

22 Verify that service remains on the working circuit pack by observing that its
ACTIVE and DS1 LEDs are on and a dash ('-') appears in the seven segment
display.

23 Verify that the ALARM LED on the protection circuit pack is on and that the fuse
alarm and minor visual and audible office alarms are activated.

Trouble Analysis and Maintenance 5

________________________________________________________________________

5.01 Service interruption can be caused by power or transmission failure. For the
RouteSwitch system, power failures are first addressed by replacing any blown fuses or
circuit packs whose individual fuses continue to blow. If fuse or circuit pack replacement
does not clear the power problem, shelf wiring and/or cabling must be checked to be
consistent with local procedures. Transmission failures are addressed by replacing the
applicable circuit pack(s). Option switches on the replacement circuit pack must be set to
match those of the failed circuit pack. If transmission is not restored by this replacement,
follow local procedures to clear the problem.

5.02 The seven segment display on the faceplate of each circuit pack indicates most
problems that the RouteSwitch system might encounter. Refer to Table 2-I for an
explanation of these indications and suggested maintenance. Dont ignore the decimal
point in the front status indicator since that means manually locked and no automatic
operation is possible.

5.03 If the problem symptom is resolved by circuit pack replacement, call CXR Larus
Corporation Customer Service Department to obtain a return merchandise authorization
(RMA) number for the failed circuit pack. Please be prepared to state the technical
complaint (e.g. C P flashing on faceplate). If the problem is not resolved by this
substitution or by suggested maintenance, call the Customer Service Department for
assistance.

5.04 (continued)

When handling or returning electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive products, all

standard ESD precautions should be followed. ESD sensitive equipment is considered
to be any electrical equipment aside from sheet metal products. Standard ESD
precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

All personnel handling the equipment should be properly grounded (prior to

removal of the equipment from the housing/shelf). This will preclude ESD through the
equipment.

Once the equipment has been removed from the housing/shelf, it should
immediately be placed in an ESD protective bag.

All returned equipment should be packaged as originally received (i.e., placed in an

ESD conductive or antistatic bag and put back in the original box with foam
packaging). Individual equipment boxes should be placed into a master container box
with appropriate fill to ensure safe transportation.

Any ESD or transportation related damage to equipment will void the equipment
warranty.

5.05 All returned shipments must be prepaid by the customer and bear the RMA
number on the exterior of the package.
