Line Build-Out Circuit
Design Guideline for Setting the Transmit
The TxLEV_(n) input pins or bit-fields should be set
based upon the overall cable length between the
Transmitting Terminal and the Digital Cross Connect
system where the pulse template measurements are
made.
If the cable length between the Transmitting Ter-
minal and the DSX-3 or STSX-1 is less than 225
feet, enable the Transmit Line Build-Out circuit by
setting the TxLEV_(n) input pin or bit-field to "0".

:
In this case, the configured channel outputs shaped
(e.g., not square-wave) pulses onto the line via its TTIP_(n)
and TRing_(n) output pins. The shape of this output pulse
is such that it complies with the pulse template require-
ments even when subjected to cable loss ranging from 0 to
225 feet.
If the cable length between the Transmitting Ter-
minal and the DSX-3 or STSX-1 is greater than 225
feet, disable the Transmit Line Build-Out circuit
by setting the TxLEV_(n) input pin or bit-field to
"1".
N
OTE
:
In this case, the configured channel in the
XRT73L02 outputs partially-shaped pulses onto the line via
the TTIP_(n) and TRing_(n) output pins. The cable loss
that these pulses experience over long cable lengths (e.g.,
greater than 225 feet) causes these pulses to be properly
shaped and comply with the appropriate pulse template
requirement.
2.4.4
The Transmit Line Build-Out Circuit and
E3 Applications
The ITU-T G.703 Pulse Template Requirements for
E3 states that the E3 transmit output pulse should be
measured at the Secondary Side of the Transmit Out-
put Transformer for Pulse Template compliance. In
other words, there is no Digital Cross Connect Sys-
tem pulse template requirement for E3. Consequent-
ly, the Transmit Line Build-Out circuit in a given Chan-
nel in the XRT73L02 is disabled whenever that chan-
nel has been configured to operate in the E3 Mode.

The E3, DS3 and SONET STS-1 specification docu-
ments all state that line signals transmitted over coax-
ial cable are to be terminated with 75 Ohm resistor.
Interface the Transmit Section of the XRT73L02 in
the manner illustrated in Figure 14 to accomplish this.
