receive clock output
•
transmit clock output
The receive and transmit clocks have slightly different bit rates from each
other, as determined by the transmit and receive carrier clocks.
The NTAK79 has an onboard D-Channel Handler Interface (DCHI). It is the
equivalent to a single port of an NTAK02 SDI/DCH pack. This enables for
a completely operational ISDN PRA link with clock synchronization and
D-channel on a single circuit card.
The onboard D-channel has one status LED on the NTAK79 faceplate to
indicate enabled/disabled states. See
.
The on-board DCHI can be operated in two separate modes as defined by
an on-board dip switch. It can operate in a standard DCHI mode common
to most ISDN standard countries. The U.K. specific mode that uses the
DPNSS format is not supported at this time.

DCHI
The D-channel support interface is a 64 kbps, full-duplex serial bit stream
configured as a DCE device. The data signals include: (1) Receive data
output, (2) transmit data input, (3) receive clock output, and (4) transmit
clock output. The receive and transmit clocks can be of slightly different bit
rates from each other as determined by the transmit and receive carrier
clocks.
