About the STM-1 Electrical Interface Pod About the STM-1 Electrical Interface Pod Overview The HP E5123A STM-1 Electrical Interface Pod is a self-contained, plug-in module. You use it in conjunction with the HP E5200A Broadband Service Analyzer to test and analyze a system under test (SUT). In the transmit direction, the interface pod • automatically calculates and inserts Section/Regenerator Section BIP, Line/Multiplexer Section BIP, and Path BIP • maps the ATM cells into the Virtual Container

To Set Up the Interface Pod To Set Up the Interface Pod Caution Handle the interface pod with care to avoid electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage during unpacking, installation, and operation. The connectors on the front and rear of the interface pod are susceptible to ESD. 1 Insert the interface pod into the analyzer. See “To Insert the Interface Pod” on page 5. The procedure is the same for all interface pods. 2 Connect the interface pod to the SUT. See “To Connect to the System Under Test” on

To Set Up the Interface Pod To Insert the Interface Pod You can insert and remove interface pods at any time, even when the analyzer is powered on. Initially, you insert an interface pod when you set up the analyzer. Subsequently, you insert an interface pod when you change the physical layer interface that you want to monitor. 1 Hold the interface pod with the front panel connectors facing you and the Hewlett-Packard logo facing upwards. 2 Insert the interface pod into Port 1 or Port 2 of the a

To Set Up the Interface Pod To Remove the Interface Pod Gently press on the clip underneath the interface pod and pull the interface pod out of the analyzer. When you remove the interface pod, make sure you store it in a dust free location that meets the environmental requirements listed in “Environmental Specifications” on page 13. An electrostatic-safe bag has been supplied for the storage of each interface pod. To Connect to the System Under Test Obtain a pair of 75 Ω coaxial cables with BNC c
