Port Adapter Overview
The PA-4E1G, shown in Figure 1-1 and Figure 1-2, provides up to four E1 synchronous serial interfaces,
which are compatible with and specified by G.703/G.704. The PA-4E1G network interfaces provide a
connection between standard serial interfaces such as V.35 to telephone lines or Post, Telephone, and
Telegraph (PTT) networks. Each PA-4E1G interface operates in full-duplex mode at E1 (2.048 Mbps)
speed.
The PA-4E1G interfaces do not operate in the data terminal equipment (DTE) and data communications
equipment (DCE) modes that are typical of data communications interfaces. The PA-4E1G interfaces
operate with either a line-recovered or an internal clock signal. The default is for a line clock signal that
the interface recovers from the received data stream. The interface can also operate with an internal clock
signal. The PA-4E1G generates the internal clock signal; the interface does not use the motherboard or
system clock.

Features
The PA-4E1G provides the following features and capabilities:
Note
•
Provides framed and unframed service access, E1 (2.048 Mbps) line speeds over unbalanced 75-ohm
or balanced 120-ohm cable, with 15-pin, D-shell (DB-15) receptacles on the port adapter
•
Operates over E1 leased-line services, and provides ITU-T G.703 with high-density bipolar of order
3 (HDB3) line encoding
•
Operates with either an external or internal clock signal, and runs at wire speed
•
Provides for local and remote loopback testing services
•
Allows you to fractionalize a data stream into a single channel from 64 kilobits per second (kbps)
to 1984 kbps
•
Provides G.704 framing for n x 64-kbps service support (where n = 1 to 31)
•
Support for 4-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC4) to provide and ensure data integrity
•
Support for point-to-point connections to supported platforms
•
Eliminates the need for a separate, external data termination unit that is typically used to convert
standard serial interfaces, such as V.35, to E1-G.703/G.704
PA-4E1Gs are available as spare parts PA-4E1G-120(=) and PA-4E1G-75(=).
Interface Specifications
Each PA-4E1G interface is available in either balanced (120-ohm) or unbalanced (75-ohm) mode; a
unique port adapter supports each type. Neither the balanced and unbalanced modes nor the balanced
and unbalanced cables are interchangeable; you cannot configure a balanced port to support an
unbalanced line, nor can you attach an interface cable intended for a balanced line to an unbalanced port.
Balanced interfaces typically use three conductors and three signal states: high, low, and ground. The
high and low signals mirror each other. Unbalanced interfaces use only two signals: signal and ground.
You can discover the mode of each interface by examining the agency approval label on each port
adapter, or by using the show controller cbus command.
Following is an example of discovering whether the PA-4E1G is in balanced or unbalanced mode:
Router# show controllers cbus
Serial1/1/0, applique is G.703 Unbalanced
[remainder of displayed text omitted from example]
Serial1/1/1, applique is G.703 Unbalanced
[remainder of displayed text omitted from example]
The PA-4E1G interface is divided into 32 time slots or frames. (See Figure 1-3.)

Each of the 32 time slots is an 8-bit frame that transmits data at 64 kbps. Each of these time slots can be
configured to carry data or to remain empty. (The PA-4E1G inserts an idle pattern into empty time slots.)
Time slot 0, or the first 8 bits, is reserved as overhead. The remaining 248 bits (31 frames with 8 bits
each) are designated time slots 1 through 31. Time slot 16 is also designated as a framing slot when using
framed mode. When you use framed mode (G.704), you can configure time slot 16 to carry data and
operate as any of the other slots; therefore, in framed mode time slot 0 must be designated as a framing
signal; time slot 16 can be configured for either data or framing.
With framed mode (G.704) you can specify a bandwidth for the interface by designating 31 of the time
slots for data and reserving time slot 0 for framing (timing). When you use framed mode, you must
designate start and stop time slots; the slots within the start and stop boundaries are used for data, and
the remaining slots are left idle. For example, on an interface with framing set on time slots 1 through
8, the interface carries data within the specified 8 frames, and frames 9 through 31 remain idle. Because
each time slot transmits at 64 kbps, the interface operates at 512 kbps (8 frames x 64 kbps = 512 kbps).
By configuring 16 of the time slots to carry data and the other 16 to remain empty, you can essentially
configure the interface for 1.024 Mbps (by leaving half the time slots empty and unable to carry data).
The system inserts an idle pattern into unused time slots to identify them as overhead (unused for data).
Only one contiguous time slot range can be used. In Private Automatic Branch Exchange (PABX)
systems, time slot 16 is always left unused. By default, time slot 16 is not enabled for data in the
PA-4E1G interface. The command ts16 overrides the default and enables time slot 16 to carry data.
Unframed mode (G.703) uses all 32 time slots for data. None of the 32 time slots are used for framing
signals. This allows each of the 32 time slots to transmit at 64 kbps; therefore, 32 time slots x 64 kbps =
2.048 Mbps. While unframed mode is the default, you can also specify unframed mode with the
command timeslot 0-0, which specifies time slot 0 as the start slot with no stop (ending) time slot;
therefore, all slots are used for data. The no timeslot command restores the default of unframed mode.
Framed mode supports a 4-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC4), which you enable with a software
command. The default is for no CRC.
Note
The E1-G.703/G.704 interface on PA-4E1G is compliant with BABT 221.
For more information about CRC4 with a PA-4E1G on a VIP, Cisco 7100 series router, Cisco 7200 series
router, or Cisco uBR7200 series router, refer to Chapter 4, “Configuring the PA-4E1G.”

After system initialization, the ENABLED LED goes on to indicate that the port adapter has been
enabled for operation.
The following conditions must be met before the PA-4E1G is enabled:
•
The PA-4E1G is correctly connected and receiving power.
•
A valid system software image for the port adapter has been downloaded successfully.
•
The system recognizes the PA-4E1G or a VIP with a PA-4E1G.
If any of the above conditions are not met, or if the initialization fails for other reasons, the enabled LED
does not go on.
Table 1-1 lists port LED colors and indications.

Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts
This section describes the port adapter cables for data communications and the PA-4E1G interfaces.
Each PA-4E1G provides up to four 15-pin, D-shell (DB-15) receptacles, which support only
E1-G.703/G.704 interfaces.
The PA-4E1Gs use a DB-15 receptacle for both the balanced and unbalanced ports. The label on the port
adapter indicates if the ports on that port adapter are 75-ohm or 120-ohm. (See Figure 1-1 and
Figure 1-2.)

Overview
Cables, Connectors, and Pinouts
The port adapter end of all E1-G.703/G.704 adapter cables is a DB-15 connector. At the network end,
the adapter cable for unbalanced (75-ohm) connections uses a BNC connector. The adapter cables for
balanced (120-ohm) connections use DB-15, twinaxial, or RJ-45 connections to accommodate
connection standards in different countries.
Note
Warning
You must connect the correct type of interface cable for the port to operate.
It is a requirement of the statutory approval of the E1-G.703/G.704 interface that the jackscrews of the
connector backshell are securely screwed down while the port adapter is operating.
Cables for balanced and unbalanced mode are available with the following types of network-end
connectors:
•
Unbalanced (75-ohm) coaxial cables with BNC connectors at the network end, which are used
primarily for connection in the United Kingdom. (See Figure 1-5.)

slots 9 through 12). Slots 6 and 7 are always reserved for RSPs. The Cisco 7513 router is not shown.
Identifying Interface Addresses
This section describes how to identify interface addresses for the PA-4E1G in supported platforms.
Interface addresses specify the actual physical location of each interface on a router or switch.
Interfaces on a PA-4E1G installed in a router maintain the same address regardless of whether other port
adapters are installed or removed. However, when you move a port adapter to a different slot, the first
number in the interface address changes to reflect the new port adapter slot number.
Interfaces on a PA-4E1G installed in a VIP maintain the same address regardless of whether other
interface processors are installed or removed. However, when you move a VIP to a different slot, the
interface processor slot number changes to reflect the new interface processor slot.

Cisco 7000 Series Routers VIP Interface Addresses
In Cisco 7000 series routers, port adapters are installed on a versatile interface processor (VIP), which
installs in interface processor slots 0 through 4 (depending on the number of slots in the router). The port
adapter can be installed in either bay (port adapter slot 0 or 1) on the VIP. See Figure 1-8, Figure 1-9,
and Figure 1-10
The interface address for the VIP is composed of a three-part number in the format
interface-processor-slot-number/port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5.
The first number identifies the slot in which the VIP is installed (slot 0 through 4, depending on the
number of slots in the router).
The second number identifies which bay on the VIP the port adapter is installed (0 or 1). The bays are
numbered from left to right on the VIP.
The third number identifies the physical port number (interface port number) on the port adapter. The
port numbers always begin at 0 and are numbered from left to right. The number of additional ports
depends on the number of ports on the port adapter. The PA-4E1G is a four-port port adapter, therefore
the port can be 0 through 3.
For example, if the four-port PA-4E1G is installed in a VIP in interface processor slot 3, port adapter
slot 1, the interface addresses would be 3/1/0, 3/1/1. 3/1/2, and 3/1/3 (interface processor slot 3, port
adapter slot 1, and interfaces 0,1, 2, and 3).
Note
Although the processor slots in the 7-slot Cisco 7000 are vertically oriented and those in the 5-slot
Cisco 7010 are horizontally oriented, all Cisco 7000 series routers use the same method for processor
slot and interface port numbering.

Identifying Interface Addresses
Cisco 7100 Series Routers Interface Addresses
In Cisco 7120 series router, port adapters are installed in port adapter slot 3. See Figure 1-11. In the
Cisco 7140 series router, port adapters are installed in port adapter slot 4. See Figure 1-12.
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed on a Cisco 7120 router, the interface addresses would be 3/0 through 3/3. If a four-port
PA-4E1G is installed on a Cisco 7140 router, the interface addresses would be 4/0 through 4/3.
Cisco 7200 Series Routers and Cisco 7200 VXR Routers Interface Addresses
In Cisco 7200 series routers and Cisco 7200 VXR routers, port adapter slots are numbered from the
lower left to the upper right, beginning with slot 1 and continuing through slot 2 for the Cisco 7202,
slot 4 for the Cisco 7204 and Cisco 7204VXR, and slot 6 for the Cisco 7206 and Cisco 7206VXR. Port
adapters can be installed in any available port adapter slot from 1 through 6 (depending on the number
of slots in the router). (Slot 0 is reserved for the I/O controller.) See Figure 1-13, Figure 1-14, and
Figure 1-15
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed in slot 1of a Cisco 7200 series router, the interface addresses would be 1/0 through 1/3.
Cisco uBR7200 Series Routers Interface Addresses
In the Cisco uBR7223 router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered slot 1. See
Figure 1-16
In the Cisco uBR7246 router and Cisco uBR7246VXR router, port adapters can be installed in two port
adapter slots (slot1 and slot 2). Slot 0 is always reserved for the I/O controller—if present. See
Figure 1-17 and Figure 1-18.
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed in slot 1of a Cisco uBR7223 series router, the interface addresses would be 1/0 through 1/3. If
a four-port PA-4E1G is installed in slot 2 of a Cisco uBR7246 or Cisco uBR7246VXR router, the
interface addresses would be 2/0 through 2/3.
Cisco 7201 Router Interface Addresses
In the Cisco 7201 router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered as slot 1. See
Figure 1-19.
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed in a Cisco 7201 router, the interface addresses would be 1/0 through 1/3.

Cisco 7301 Router Interface Addresses
In the Cisco 7301 router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered as slot 1. See
Figure 1-20.
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed in a Cisco 7301 router, the interface addresses would be 1/0 through 1/3.
Cisco 7304 PCI Port Adapter Carrier Card Interface Addresses
In the Cisco 7304 router, port adapters are installed in a Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card, which
installs in Cisco 7304 router module slots 2 through 5. The port adapter slot number is the same as the
module slot number. See Figure 1-21 and Figure 1-22.
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
module-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed in the Cisco 7304 PCI port adapter carrier card in Cisco 7304 router module slot 3, the interface
addresses would be 3/0 through 3/3.
Cisco 7401ASR Router Interface Addresses
In the Cisco 7401ASR router, only one slot accepts port adapters and it is numbered as slot 1. See
Figure 1-23.
The interface address is composed of a two-part number in the format
port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5. For example, if a four-port PA-4E1G is
installed in a Cisco 7401ASR router, the interface addresses would be 1/0 through 1/3.
Cisco 7500 Series Routers VIP Interface Addresses
In Cisco 7000 series routers and Cisco 7500 series routers, port adapters are installed on a versatile
interface processor (VIP), which installs in interface processor slots 0 through 12 (depending on the
number of slots in the router). The port adapter can be installed in either bay (port adapter slot 0 or 1)
on the VIP. See Figure 1-24, and Figure 1-25.
The interface address for the VIP is composed of a three-part number in the format
interface-processor-slot-number/port-adapter-slot-number/interface-port-number. See Table 1-5.
The first number identifies the slot in which the VIP is installed (slot 0 through 12, depending on the
number of slots in the router).
The second number identifies the bay (port adapter slot) on the VIP in which the port adapter is installed
(0 or 1). The bays are numbered from left to right on the VIP.
The third number identifies the physical port number (interface port number) on the port adapter. The
port numbers always begin at 0 and are numbered from left to right. The number of additional ports
depends on the number of ports on the port adapter. The PA-4E1G is a four-port port adapter, therefore
the port can be 0 through 3.
