Equipment Overview
The Adaptive Power Control algorithm lowers the Tx Power to between the 1E-6 and
1E-12 BER level. If SNR or signal-level decreases, the Tx Power is increased to
maintain the 1E-6 BER.
The receiving Station, measures the RSL and SNR once per second, and transmits a
power adjustment request to the remote transmitting Station. Once per second TX
side processes the adjustment power requests and increases or decreases transmit
power as requested. If the transmit power is at the limit, an alarm is generated.
The transmit power may be changed in user configurable increments of 1dB to 8dB.

E1 Traffic Prioritization:
If Level2 or Level3 has fewer E1 channels than Level1, higher numbered channels
will be dropped first.
For example:
Level1 supports a 16E1-mode: E1 channels 1 through 16 will be transmitted;
Level2 supports a 8E1-mode: E1 channels 1 through 8 will be transmitted, while in
this case E1 channels 9 through 16 will be dropped;
Level3 supports a 4E1-mode: E1 channels 1 through 4 will be transmitted, while in
this case E1 channels 5 through 16 will be dropped.
It is worth nothing here that number of E1 channels should be in descending order
while going from Level1 to Level3 [#E1 Level 1 > #E2 Level 2 > #E1 Level 3].

1) 16QAM at Level 3 is also allowed, QPSK has been certified because of is the
worst condition.
2) The value medium or High in this case are critical because they can cause the
system to not return to the higher level.
WARNING
In East/East configuration the following limitations are present:
when the ACM is switching it can happen that the changes in Ethernet
payload throughput in the two directions (from one NE to the other) are not
simultaneous (one direction can show some delay in reaching the final
Ethernet rate with respect to the other);
occasionally the Ethernet payload can be lost for about 30s;
ACM switch in one radio affects also the payload in the other radio;
when the Mux/Demux option is present the ACM switch causes the
activation of STM1 alarms.
