Clear Channel on a T1

Fri Mar 23 18:45:15 UTC 2001

<Bell Atlantic Tech> "If it's a T1, then it's B8ZS"
<Me> "Then why can't I send all zeroes, but every other pattern works?"
<Bell> "Hmm... lemme check...(pause)...try now"
<Me> "Ok, it's working. Did you find an AMI segment?"
<Bell> "I didn't change anything."

Ticket closed, "No problem found".

-C

> It's also the source of grief when a telco provisions one segment of a T1 
> circuit without B8ZS.  When this non-B8ZS segment sees too many zeros, ones 
> will be injected in the stream, corrupting the data.
> 
> Of course, this NEVER happens anymore...right?  ;-)
