1. Presentation

The PCM2 board (Pulse Code Modulation) is used to connect the system to the public (except France)
or private exchange via a PCM link (channel by channel signalling).

The PCM2 board supports a PCM link.

The board carries out tone and Q23 (DTMF) and R2 signalling detection using a signal processing
detector. In some configurations, two detection modules are equipped.

The PCM2 board configuration is described in the module PCM2 board - Configuration .

The PCM2 board connection is described in the module PCM2 board - Connection .

3.2. Blocks description

3.2.1. CTI2 module

Installed on the daughter board, this module comprises :

- PCM interface

- frame aligner.
PCM interface
This interface comprises :

- 32 channel transmitter/receiver (30 voice channels and 2 dedicated channels),

- galvanic isolation,

- over voltage protector,

- electromagnetic interference protector.

The receptor extracts the reference clock signal (512 KHz) and allows to the CPU to synchronize the
system
The PCM interface can be looped back by front panel strapping.
The line interfaces can be adapted to 120 Ohms (twisted pairs) or 75 Ohms (front panel coax) by
strapping.
Frame aligner
This block carries out layer 1 control :

- HDB3 coding/decoding,

- extraction of the signalling from the PCM interface in order to send it to the signalling controller,

- insertion of the signalling from the signalling controller into the frame destined for the PCM
interface,

- frame lock

- 2 Mbit alarm generation following error detection by the line interface (LOS, AIS 2M, RAI, NOS),

- generation of 64 kbit alarms,

- calculation of the error rate.

These alarms are viewed by front panel LED.

3.2.2. Signalling controller

This controller:

- processes the signalling on PCM frame TS16,

- controls the 64 kbit alarms.

3.2.3. Interface contol

This block ensures:

- line interface power up,

- control of the frame aligner,

- control of the loop tests,

- control of the 10 display LED

- selection of the external 512 KHz clock.

3.2.4. Multifrequency detector

Detection is carried out by a signal processor. The processor is programmed to detect 6 Q23 (DTMF)
multifrequencies or 3 R2 multifrequencies or 8 tones simultaneously.

It communicates with the common part via the MICI 2 link. A second detection module can be installed
to double R2 frequency detection capacity.

This module is the same as the first one. It is connected to the common part via the MICI3 link.

3.2.5. Common part

The common part interfaces the PCM board with the other system boards. For further details, refer to
module Interface boards - Hardware description - Common part .

IPCM 1, serving the PCM interface, presents a frame of the following type :

125 micro secondes : 32 TS

TS16 carries PCM signalling.

TS0 carries alarms and frame synchronization.

3.2.6. Power supply

From the -48V, the CM8 converter supplies the voltages required by the board (+5V and +12V).
