WAN ports
5.1 Introduction
This chapter provides configuration and troubleshooting information for the Wide-Area
Network (WAN) ports. There are four WAN ports available on the IMACS-200.
The WAN ports manage the flow of data through the IMACS-200 network. They terminate
T1or E1 lines and generate or receive network timing clocks. They also cross-connect DS0
time slots, to pass data through the system from one T1or E1 line to another.
5.2 WAN port Descriptions
The WAN ports are used for connection to a 1.544 Mbps T1 network, or to a 2.048 Mbps E1
network. There are four ports available on the IMACS-200, ports numbered wan-1, wan-2,
wan-3 and wan-4. Connection to the WAN ports are made through the rear panel of the
IMACS-200, labeled T1/E1 and numbered 1 through 4. The access to these ports is via four
separate RJ45 connectors. Refer to Section Table 2-6. on page 10 of the System Installation
chapter for pinouts of the WAN connections.
