E1 uses 32 data channels. Each E1 frame consists of 32 time slots, where 30 slots are allocated for user data, one slot is used for synchronization, and one slot is reserved for signaling. This configuration allows E1 to transmit voice and data simultaneously over the same link.
In an E1 digital transmission system, the 32 channels are organized into 30 user data channels, one signaling channel, and one framing channel. Each of the 30 user channels carries a standard 64 kbps voice or data signal. The signaling channel, known as the data link channel (D channel), is used for call setup and management, while the framing channel provides synchronization and framing information for the entire E1 frame. This structure allows efficient multiplexing of multiple communication streams over a single physical line.
In STM-1 (Synchronous Transport Module level 1) radio equipment, there are typically 63 E1 (also known as E1 circuits or channels) available. Each E1 circuit has a data rate of 2.048 Mbps, allowing for a total aggregate capacity of 155.52 Mbps in an STM-1 configuration. This structure enables efficient transmission of multiple voice and data channels over a single optical fiber link.
An STM-1 (Synchronous Transport Module level 1) carries a total of 63 E1 (European 1.544 Mbps) channels. Each E1 channel has a capacity of 2.048 Mbps, and the STM-1 has a total bandwidth of 155.52 Mbps. Therefore, it can efficiently accommodate these E1 channels within its structure.
e1 is a standard unit used to measure the amount of data flow. 1 e1 refers to 2mbps speed of data flow.
Most likely, the E1 will not interface directly with the base transceiver. The E1 is a 2.048 MHz digitally multiplexed group of 30 E0 (8 KHz voice) channels. The base transceiver requires one or more E0 channels. You need a box in between them ... a multiplex "channel bank", which disassembles the E1 and gives you access to its constituent E0 channels.
A Primary Rate Interface (PRI) typically has 23 Bearer channels in North America and Japan, where it follows the T1 standard. In contrast, in Europe and other regions using the E1 standard, a PRI consists of 30 Bearer channels. These channels are used for voice and data transmission, while one channel is reserved for signaling.
In North American a T1 line carries signals at 1.544 Mbps (24 channels at 64Kbps). E1 is the European format for digital transmission. E1 carries signals at 2 Mbps (32 channels at 64Kbps, with 2 channels reserved for signaling and controlling). T1 and E1 lines may be interconnected for international use.
An E1 dedicated line has a maximum speed of 2.048 Mbps. This standard digital transmission link can carry 30 voice channels along with one signaling channel and is commonly used in telecommunications for data and voice transmission.
ISDN PRI (Primary Rate Interface) provides a total of 30 channels for voice or data transmission in North America and Japan, using a T1 line. In Europe and other regions, it typically offers 30 channels on an E1 line, along with 2 additional channels for signaling, totaling 32 channels. Each channel can carry a single voice call or data session, making ISDN PRI suitable for businesses with high call volume needs.
There are 32 timeslots in E1. named frm 0 to 31 in which the first timeslot is used for framing while 16th timeslot is used to carry signalling data
To use Acterna E1 and Data Tester EDT-130, connect the device to the E1 line using an appropriate cable. Configure the tester with the required test parameters, such as line code, frame structure, and payload. Initiate the test and analyze the results to ensure proper E1 line functionality and data transmission.
Ethernet over E1 converter (also called E1 network bridge) is to transmit Ethernet data over E1 network (PDH,SDH network etc). The Ethernet port connect to terminal device,computer,Ethernet switch,Ethernet router etc. The device's E1 port connect to mail network(PDH SDH etc).E1 over IP (TDMOIP) is to transmit the E1 data over ethernet IPnetwork. It transports the legacy E1 data through the existing Ethernet or IP network. The typical application is transmit voice and data over wireless radio network.
