Note that the upper left hand corner of the terminal display shows "REMOTE" in inverse text.

The functions of the display and configuration are exactly the same as for the local unit with one exception; there is no optical loop back available.

The optical path between the two multiplexers carries not only the multiplexed data from the

E1/T1 transmissions, it also carries the integrated optical BER channel, the Order Wire voice channel, and the EOC (embedded operations channel). The EOC provides the communication path for console and SNMP between the local and remote units. Obviously if that channel is compromised either by loss of optical signal or by an optical loop back performed from the remote side, the channel and remote control will be lost. Therefore, loop back of optical when logged in to the remote is not available. If the optical link should fail while logged into the remote unit, the terminal session will auto-logoff from the remote.

This completes the overview of the Console mode configuration and status monitoring of the

QUAD TIBER T.
