Software release
- JUNOS 5.6 and later
Description
- Two EIA-530, X.21 or V.35 serial ports
- Power requirement: 0.07 A/48 V @ 3.4 W
Note: On the M5, M10, M20, M40, and M160 routers, this PIC requires an Enhanced FPC. See the hardware guide for your router for more information.
Hardware features
- Configured as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) ports
- Resynchronization signal
- Receives clock rates up to 16 Mbps
- Local, Data Communications Equipment (DCE) local, and DTE remote loopbacks
Software features
- Supports four queues per port
- Random Early Drop (RED)
- Transmitter Signal Element Timing is looped from the timing received on the Transmitted Signal Element DCE. EIA-530 ports support the ability to invert the Transmit Data Element. The EIA-530 ports support the following rates:
- 2.048 Mbps
- 2.341 Mbps
- 2.731 Mbps
- 3.277 Mbps
- 4.09 Mbps
- 5.461 Mbps
- 8.192 Mbps
- 16.384 Mbps
- V.35 ports support up to 2.048 Mbps
- X.21 ports support up to 10 Mbps
- Encapsulations:
- High-level Data Link Control (HDLC)
- Frame Relay
- Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) circuit cross-connect (CCC)
- Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP)
Cables and connectors
- Two DB-25 male connectors (one per port, included with PIC)
- V.35 requires an EIA-530 to V.35 cable and connects to a V.35 DTE 34-pin Winchester type male cable (one per port)
- X.21 requires an EIA-530 to X.21 cable and connects to a X.21 DTE DB-15 male cable
LEDs Three bicolor per port:
- Data Set Ready (DSR):
- Green—DSR is detected or ignored
- Red—DSR expected but not present
- Data Carrier Detect (DCD):
- Green—DCD is detected or ignored
- Red—DCD expected but not present
- Resynchronization
- Green—Keepalives are being received
- Red—Date Terminal Ready (DTR) toggled from low to high (resynchronization pulses are being sent)
Instrumentation (counters)
- Per-port packet and byte counters
- Resynchronization counters:
- Number of resynchronizations initiated
- Time of last resynchronization
