Method 2 Operation of the Terminal Equipment
If the Terminal Equipment intends to sample any
overhead data from the inbound DS3 data stream
(via the Receive Overhead Data Output Interface),
then it is expected to do the following.
1. Sample the state of the RxOHFrame signal (e.g.,
the Rx_Start_of_Frame input) on the falling edge
of the RxOutClk clock signal, whenever the RxO-
HEnable output signal is also sampled "High".
2. Keep track of the number of times that the RxO-
HEnable signal has been sampled "High" since
the last time the RxOHFrame was also sampled
"High". By doing this, the Terminal Equipment
will be able to keep track of which overhead bit is
being output via the RxOH output pin. Based
upon this information, the Terminal Equipment
will be able to derive some meaning from these
overhead bits.
3. Table 60 relates the number of RxOHEnable
output pulses (that have occurred since both the
RxOHFrame and the RxOHEnable pins were
both sampled "High") to the DS3 overhead bit
that is being output via the RxOH output pin.
