Product Description
Cisco PA-MC-T3 Multi-Channel DS3 Port Adapter for 7200 Series
The PA-MC-T3 Multi-Channel T3 port adapter is available on Cisco 7200 series routers, on second-generation Versatile Interface Processor (VIP2) in Cisco 7500 series routers, and on Cisco 7000 series routers with the 7000 Series Route Switch Processor (RSP) and 7000 Series Chassis Interface (RSP).
- The PA-MC-T3 has one channelized T3 high-speed serial interface that provides access to services at T1 (1.544 Mb) data rates, transferring data bidirectionally.
- Divides the T3 signal stream into 28 T1 lines that can be further divided into the 64 kbps level, up to a total of 128 channels.
- Does not support the aggregation of multiple T1 lines.
Features:
- Transmits and receives data bidirectionally at the T3 rate of 44.736 Mbps (digital signal carried on a T3 line, digital signal level 3 [DS3]).
- The T3 connection, provided by way of two female BNC connections for transmit (TX) and receive (RX), requires RG-59 coaxial cable that has an impedance of 75 ohms.
- Supports RFC 1406 and RFC 1407 (CISCO-RFC-1407-CAPABILITY.my). For RFC 1406, Cisco supports all tables except the Frac table. For RFC 1407, Cisco supports all tables except the FarEnd tables.
- PA-MC-T3 microcode is loaded into and operates from DRAM (or SDRAM) configuration and is determined by the VIP model on which the PA-MC-T3 is installed.
- On the Catalyst RSM/VIP2, PA-MC-T3 microcode is loaded into and operates from DRAM on the Catalyst RSM/VIP2-40.
