NECITR-YTC ART-MAR/04 V02

PASOLINK NETWORK MANAGEMENT TERMINAL (PNMT) IS A MOBILE TERMINAL CONSISTING OF A PORTABLE COMPUTER WITH A SIMPLIFIED VERSION OF THE PASOLINK NETWORK MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE DEVELOPED FOR MANAGEMENT OF NEC PASOLINK SERIES SHORT HAUL RADIO TRANSMISSION NETWORK. PNMT IS DESIGNED AS AN ONSITE MAINTENANCE TOOL TO BE USED BY THE FIELD ENGINEERS AND TECHNICIANS. IT CONNECTS DIRECTLY TO THE PNMT PORT OF THE PASOLINK IDU. PNMT CAN BE USED TO MONITOR LOCAL / REMOTE EQUIPMENT STATUS AND PROVIDES CONTROL CAPABILITIES SIMILAR TO THOSE AVAILABLE IN PNMS. PNMT IS ALSO USED TO DOWN LOAD SYSTEM AND CONFIGURATION FILES TO THE NE AND UPGRADE THE SOFTWARE IN THE IDU WHEN CONNECTED TO AN IDU PNMT CAN MONITOR NOT ONLY THE LOCAL EQUIPMENT BUT ANY REMOTE NETWORK ELEMENT UNDER THE CONTROL OF THE CENTRAL PM.

PNMT COMMUNICATION INTERFACE

COMMUNICATION BETWEEN THE PNMT AND THE RADIO NETWORK EQUIPMENT CAN BE : VIA THE PNMT PORT OF THE LOCAL PASOLINK EQUIPMENT VIA THE DSC TO A REMOTE PASOLINK EQUIPMENT PNMT PORT IS LOCATED ON THE FRONT OF THE EQUIPMENT AND CONSISTS OF A RJ45 CONNECTOR. PNMT PORT CONNECT THE PM CTRL MODULE IN THE IDU VIA A SERIAL CABLE TO THE RELEVANT COMMUNICATION PORT OF THE PNMT COMPUTER. PROPERTIES OF THE PNMT PORT ARE AS FOLLOWS: PORT CONFIGURATION RS-232 CONNECTOR TYPE RJ45 BITS PER SECOND RATE 1200 TO 19200 Default(19200)
