Additional Information The PA-MCX has the following features:

Universal ports: Eight interface ports per port adapter are configurable as either T1 (with integrated CSU/DSU) or E1 (with an integrated G.703/G.704 120-ohm interface). Additionally, a port may be configured on a per-DS0 basis for voice termination, TDM pass-through (cross-connect), or data.

MIX support: Voice channels can be TDM switched between port-adapter slots in the Cisco 7200 VXR chassis. This allows DSP resources to be shared between port adapters in the same chassis or for port-to-port DS0 crossconnect between port-adapter slots.

DS0 "drop and insert": Flexible TDM cross-connect capability between ports and the MIX bus is available.

Multiple clocking options: Ports can be clocked internally from the network, or the network clock from one port can be sent to the other port on the card or to other cards across the MIX bus in the Cisco 7200 VXR chassis.

Supported Loopbacks

Line loopback: The T1/E1 stream is looped back at the LIU toward the network.

Payload loopback: The T1/E1 data stream is looped back at the framer toward the network.

Diagnostic local loopback: The T1/E1 data stream is looped back at the framer toward the system.

Remote loopback: The T1 stream is looped back at the LIU toward the network upon request from the far end via FDL command.

System Requirements

The MIX multichannel T1/E1 port adapter is supported in all Cisco IOS® feature sets starting with Release 12.1(5)T.
