DSL Parameters
Circuit ID: The circuit ID communicated to other units via EOC. EOC (embedded operations channel) is
an out-of-band channel specified in the G.991.2 standard for SHDSL. We use standard EOC messages for
our remote loopback. The 3088/I also supports proprietary EOC messages that allow a 3096RC to
configure it.
Intended DSL Data Rate: This selects the desired DSL data rate.
Actual DSL Data Rate (kbps): The actual current data rate that the DSL link is operating, minus the DSL
overhead (8 kbps).
Annex Type: Either G.991.2 Annex A or Annex B.
Device Type: The two options are Remote (default) or Central. When configuring two units back-to-back,
one must be remote, the other central.
Line Probe: The line probe may disabled (default) or enabled for rate adaptive applications.
Action: To initiate the DSL link, select Start and click on the Configure button. To take the DSL link
down, select Deactivate and click on the Configure button.
