Introduction
1.1 Overview
RIC-E1 is an interface converter. It converts unframed HDB3 or AMI data of ITU
G.703 E1 balanced or unbalanced interface into an interchangeable DTE interface
module.
RIC-E1 operates at 2048 kbps. It extracts data and the clock from the G.703
interface via a jitter attenuator to meet ITU G.823 requirements.
RIC-E1 acts as a line transceiver. It provides protection from over-voltage and
over-current stress caused by lightning, power crosses and other noise sources.
