Yeah... sorta.

So the CSU settings may be used when the E1 is pulled down to my premises, and I have a short cable connecting directly to the CSU device. I don't know why I'd need to change the LBO settings in that case, but I guess that doesn't really matter to me at the moment.

In my case, I am approximately 40-50 metres (130-165 feet) from the switch (according to the telco's engineers), so an LBO of "1" in my span definition would theoretially be correct.

any help?







Maybe I need to be a little more specific.

I know what signal attenuation is. What I don't know, is how LBO (and
specifically the implementation of it as used in the zaptel

hardware/software)

helps the situation.

My servers are co-located with my carrier, and my PRI circuits are run

through

several patch panels, jumpers, etc. to another room, where they terminate

on a

DMS-100. I have asked the carrier for an estimated cable length, so i can
correctly set the LBO.

In the zaptel config, what is meant by DSX-1? What is CSU?

Why would I use a -7.5db, -15db or -22.5db LBO?

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] Zaptel Line Build Out




Can someone who is knowledgable in the traditional telco space please

give

me a


layman's explanation (or point me to an appropriate url) of LBO as per

the

zaptel configuration file?

# The line build-out (or LBO) is an integer, from the following table:
# 0: 0 db (CSU) / 0-133 feet (DSX-1)
# 1: 133-266 feet (DSX-1)
# 2: 266-399 feet (DSX-1)
# 3: 399-533 feet (DSX-1)
# 4: 533-655 feet (DSX-1)
# 5: -7.5db (CSU)
# 6: -15db (CSU)
# 7: -22.5db (CSU)
