GENERAL INFORMATION
C/30E Physical Level Interface Guide
1. Purpose. This Instruction prescribes the policy, assigns the
responsibility, and identifies the requirements for connecting an X.25
host to a C/30E PSN by means of a MIL-STD-188-114 (balanced), EIA-232-D,
or V.35 interface. This Instruction also identifies the requirements for
connecting one C/30E PSN to another by means of a MIL-STD-188-114
(balanced), EIA-232-D, or V.35 interface, as well as for the BELL 303
interface.
2. Applicability. This Circular applies to Headquarters, DCA, and all
subordinate and affiliate activities, and all military departments and
Government agencies using or requesting DDN access.

4. Policy.
a. The current DDN standard node supports only MIL-STD-188-114
balanced serial host interfaces. The EIA-232 and V.35 interfaces are not
recommended for future installations, but they may be found where they are
provided by an existing installation, and it is not feasible to install a
MIL-STD-188-114 balanced interface prior to upgrading the entire node to
DDN standard.
b. DDN policy is that the C/30E minimum host bit rate be 9.6 kb/s for
MIL-STD-188-114, EIA-232-D, and V.35 interfaces. DDN also supports
Extended Modem Looping (XMOD).
5. Responsibility. DCA, Code B611, will ensure that this Circular is
updated to reflect current DDN standard node.

CHAPTER 1. MIL-STD-188-114 NEIGHBOR OR NEARBY HOST INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the MIL-STD-188-114 balanced DTE interface that
connects the C/30E PSN with a neighbor/nearby host or a modem. This
interface is largely in conformance with the EIA-449/422 standard
considered the general commercial equivalent to MIL-STD-188-114.
Exceptions to the standard include the required signal states for Clear to
Send and Receiver Ready as well as the open circuit voltage. For ease of
reference, table 1-1 equates the EIA-449, EIA-232, and CCITT interface
signal names. However, in the rest of chapters 1 and 2, only the EIA-449
signal name will be used.
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The electrical measurements of the C/30E 188-114
interface circuits are in accordance with MIL-STD-188-114, chapter 5,
except with regard to subsection 5.1.1.2: Open Circuit Measurement. The
C/30E open circuit driver voltage, measured in accordance with 5.1.1.2,
is less than +9.0V for balanced drivers and +4.5V for unbalanced drivers.

* Alternate Timing is provided on spare pins 3 and 21 when
the FDBCLK clock-sourcing fantail is providing clock.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 1-3
b. Clocking. Two fantails, FDB3 and FDBCLK, provide the EIA-449
connectors that terminate cables from all I/O interfaces. The fantail
connectors are configured as DTEs. When the FDB3 fantail is used, the DCE
must provide clock because the FDB3 fantail does not support
clock-sourcing capability. When FDBCLK, a clock-sourcing enhanced
fantail, is used, either the DTE or DCE can provide clock.
(1) FDB Fantail Clock Rates. FDBCLK and FDB3 interface hardware
support any external clock between 1.2 kb/s and 112 kb/s. However, DDN
policy is that the minimum PSN host bit rate be 9.6 kb/s. When FDBCLK
clock-sourcing capability is used, the FDBCLK on-board clock generator
provides the frequencies described in table 1-2.

* Accuracy over a temperature range of 10 to 30 degrees C.
** PPM = Parts Per Million
DCAC-350-180-( ) 1-4
(2) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense for balanced and unbalanced
circuits is in accordance with EIA-422-A with the exception that the
differential voltage applied to the interconnecting cable is in the range
of 2 volts to 9 volts for the C/30E. As defined in RS-422-A, ON (0,
Space, or +) is generated when A terminal is positive with respect to the
B terminal, and OFF (1, MARK, or -) is generated when A terminal is
negative with respect to the B terminal.
c. Bit Rate and Cable Length. Interconnecting cable length and its
relation to data signaling rates is in accordance with EIA Standard 449,
section 6.10, and EIA Standard 422-A, section 4.3 and the appendix.
(1) Maximum Cable Length. The maximum length of the cable is
1000 feet.
(2) Slew Rate Limiting. Signal rise time is set to 1 microsecond
(100 kb/s value).
d. Interchange Circuits. The EIA-449 interface for the C/30E is
provided by the MSYNC motherboard in conjunction with the appropriate
daughterboards to fulfill the MIL-STD-188-114 I/O option.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in table 1-3.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 1-5
(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
under program control: either the software reacts to the circuit signal
when it changes, or the software can assert a circuit when necessary (such
as LL which can be used by operations personnel for testing connections).
Unsupported circuits either are not read by the software or a value is
written to the circuit by the software and that value does not change
during operation. Table 1-3 provides a list of circuits and their use.
(3) Interchange Circuit Definitions. For additional information
about these interchange circuits, see EIA Standard 449. The following
descriptions assume use of full period/full duplex circuits, with flow
control handled at higher levels.
(a) Signal Ground. See EIA Standard EIA-449.
(b) Send Common. See EIA Standard EIA-449.
(c) Receive Common. See EIA Standard EIA-449.

is monitored by PSN software. If the signal state on this line changes to
OFF, the software macrocode will stop receiving data.

4. Interconnecting Cables.
a. Interconnecting cables are in accordance with MIL-STD-188-114.
They must be low capacitance, multiple twisted pair that meet the
following specifications resulting in a transmission line with a nominal
characteristic impedance on the order of 100 ohms to frequencies greater
than 100 kHz, and a dc series loop resistance not exceeding 240 ohms. The
overall braid shield must have at least 85% coverage.
(1) Conductor Size. Interconnecting cables should be in
accordance with MIL-STD-188-114, Appendix 10, with regard to conductor
size (subsection 10.1.1). Interconnecting cables or wires should be
composed of wires of a 24 AWG or larger conductor for solid or stranded
copper wires, or for non-copper conductors a sufficient size to yield a dc
wire resistance not to exceed 30 ohms/1000 feet per conductor.
(2) Mutual Pair Capacitance. In accordance with
MIL-STD-188-114, the capacitance between one wire in the pair to the other
wire in the pair should not exceed 20 picofarads/foot, and the value
should be reasonably uniform over the length of the wire or cable.
(3) Stray Capacitance. In accordance with MIL-STD-188-114, the
capacitance between one wire in the cable to all others in the cable
sheath, with all others connected to ground, should not exceed 40
picofarads/foot, and should be reasonably uniform for a given conductor
over the length of the wire or cable.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 1-12
(4) Pair-to-Pair Balanced Crosstalk. In accordance with
MIL-STD-188-114, Appendix 10, with regard to pair-to-pair balanced
crosstalk (subsection 10.1.4), the crosstalk from on pair of wires to any
other pair in the same cable sheath should have a minimum value of 40 dB
of attenuation measured at 150 kHz.
(b) Figure 1-1 is a cabling diagram of a C/30E PSN connected to
a nearby EIA-449 host, and figure 1-2 is an example of a cable (BBNCC P/N#
2409313G01) that could be used to interconnect them.

CHAPTER 2. MIL-STD-188-114 REMOTE HOST INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the MIL-STD-188-114 balanced remote host interface.
This chapter documents the interface between the remote modem and the
host (demarcation point A in figure 2-1) with no intervening
cryptographic devices (KG-84As). Eventually KG-84As will be required
for all host access circuits; therefore, chapter 2 also provides an
example of the cabling that connects from the remote modem to the remote
Fixed Plant Adapter (FPA) and then to the host (demarcation point B in
figure 2-2).
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The modems used will conform to EIA-449. The
electrical interface of the KG-84A is in accordance with MIL-STD-188-114,
chapter 5, except with regard to subsection 5.1.1.2: Open Circuit
Measurement. The open circuit driver voltage, measured in accordance
with 5.1.1.2, is less than +10.0V for balanced drivers and +5.0V for
unbalanced drivers.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 2-2
b. Clocking.
(1) Modem Clocking. The modem supplies timing on the Send
Timing and Receive Timing circuits. Terminal Timing isnot supported
for remote host interfaces. While the DDN hardware will support
between 1.2 kb/s and 64 kb/s, DDN policy is that the minimum host
access rate be 9.6 kb/s.

(2) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense for balanced and
unbalanced circuits is in accordance with EIA-422-A with the exception
of the differential voltage, which applied to the interconnecting
cable, is in the C/30E range of 2 volts to 9 volts. As defined in
RS-232-A, ON (0, Space, or +) is generated when the A terminal is
positive with respect to the B terminal, and OFF (1, MARK, or -) is
generated when the A terminal is negative with respect to the B terminal.
c. Bit Rate and Cable Length.
(1) EIA-449 Compliance. Interconnecting cable length and its
relation to data signaling rates is in accordance with EIA Standard 449,
section 6.10, and EIA Standard 422-A, section 4.3 and the appendix.
(2) Maximum Cable Length. The maximum cable length between the
remote modem and the host including the intervening FPA is 1000 feet;
however, cable lengths less than 200 feet are preferred.
d. Interchange Circuits.
(1) C/30E Local Modem Interface.
(a) Signal flow between the C/30E and the local modem is
shown in figure 2-3. This interface and associated hardware are
provided by DDN. The signal flow is the same when a KG-84A is used.
This interface uses EIA-449 pin assignments.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 2-5
(b) As shown in figure 2-3, the supported signals are
Send Data (SD), Send Timing (ST), Receive Data (RD), Receive Timing (RT),
and Terminal Ready (TR). Clear to Send (CS), Data Mode (DM), and
Receiver Ready (RR) are tied ON by the cable connected to the fantail.
Remote Loopback (RL) and Local Loopback (LL) are to be used for those
functions and they are connected at the DCE interface. Terminal Timing
(TT) is not supported from the PSN.
(c) Two special DDN-specific loopback signals, CL and DL,
are provided as shown in figure 2-3. The Signaling Rate Selector (SR)
signal is used by the PSN to loop the local KG-84A and is designated as
"C" loop or CL (standing for COMSEC Loopback) in figure 2-3 after it
leaves the C/30E fantail. SR is not connected to the DCE interface. The
Request To Send (RS) signal is reserved for future use within the FPA
KG-84A and is designated as "D" loop or DL. RS is not connected at the
DCE interface. The Terminal Ready (TR) signal from the PSN provides
both the Terminal Ready and Request to Send (RS) to the DCE.
(2) Host-Remote Modem Interface. The cable functional signal
flow between the remote modem and the DTE host is also shown in figure
2-3. The signal flow is the same as that described in 1.d.1, above.
The KGAB uses MS connectors with the pinout shown in figure 2-3 and
tables 2-2 and 2-3. Figure 2-3 shows DDN standard cables. Figure 2-2
is provided as an example of one way to connect to a remote host. If
DDN standard cables are not used, only the signals shown as mandatory
in table 2-2 are required. The optional signals are used by the PSN end
of the circuit.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 2-6
3. Mechanical Characteristics. All EIA-449/422 connectors offered for
the C/30E meet the specifications provided in this section.
a. Interface Connectors. DDN MIL-STD-188-114 DCE connectors are
DC-37S type (female) connectors. The DDN FPA uses an MS connector on
the KGAB counter assemblies.
b. Connector Contact Assignments.
(1) C/30E Connectors. All DDN EIA-449/422 contact assignments
are in accordance with EIA-449, section 3.4. In chapter 1, table 1-5
provides the standard DTE pinouts and section 2.d.3 provides circuit
descriptions.
(2) KGAB Connectors. KGAB connectors to the remote host and the
remote modem are shown in tables 2-2 and 2-3, respectively.

CHAPTER 3. EIA-232-D HOST INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the obsolete DDN EIA-232-D connection at the neighbor
or nearby host. For ease of reference, table 3-1 equates the EIA-232-D,
EIA-449, and CCITT interface signal names. However, in the rest of this
chapter, only the EIA-232-D signal name will be used. DDN uses the
EIA-232-D interface only where an existing non-DDN standard PSN provides
such an interface, and it is not feasible to install a MIL-STD-188-114
balanced interface prior to upgrading the entire node to DDN standard
(MIL-STD-188-114 balanced serial host interfaces).
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The electrical measurements of the C/30E
EIA-232-D interface circuits are in accordance with EIA Standard 232-D,
section 2.1. For normal operation, the open circuit driver voltage shall
be no more than +15 V.
b. Clocking.
(1) Supported Clock Rates. The FD4 fantail contains the
connectors that terminate cables from all I/O interfaces. The FD4
DCAC-350-180-( ) 3-2
fantail contains four EIA-232-D connectors configured as DTEs. This
interface has clock-sourcing capability allowing either the DTE or DCE
to provide the clock. The hardware can support external clock rates
between 1.2 kb/s and 112 kb/s. However, DDN policy is 9.6 kb/s for the
minimum PSN host bit rate, and 19.2 kb/s for the maximum rate.
(2) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense is in accordance with EIA
Standard 232-D, subsection 2.1.3. The signal is considered marking (OFF)
when the voltage on the interchange circuit is more negative than -3 V
with respect to signal ground, and spacing (ON) when the voltage is more
positive than +3 V with respect to signal ground.
c. Bit Rate and Cable Length. Interconnecting cable length is in
accordance with EIA-232-D, section 3.1. The recommended maximum cable
length between an EIA-232-D DCE and DTE is 200 feet when overall
shielded, low capacitance, twisted pair cable is used.
d. Interchange Circuits.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in table 3-2.

(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
under program control: either the software reacts to the circuit signal
when it changes, or the software can assert a circuit when necessary
(such as LL which can be used by operations personnel for testing
connections). Unsupported circuits either are not read by the software
or a value is written to the circuit by the software, and that value does
not change during operation. Table 3-2 provides a list of circuits and
their use.

FIGURE 3-2. CABLE EXAMPLE: C/30E PSN TO NEARBY EIA-232-D HOST
DCAC-350-180-( ) 4-1
CHAPTER 4. V.35 HOST INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the obsolete DDN V.35 connection at the neighbor or
nearby host. All control signals have electrical characteristics of
EIA-232-D, and EIA-232-D signal names are used in the rest of this
chapter. The data and timing signals conform to Recommendation V.35.
Like the EIA-232 interface, the V.35 interface is used only where an
existing non-DDN-standard PSN provides such an interface, and it is not
feasible to install a MIL-STD-188-114 balanced interface prior to
upgrading the entire node to DDN-standard (MIL-STD-188-114 balanced serial
host interfaces).
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The electrical measurements of the C/30E V.35
interface circuits are in accordance with CCITT Recommendation V.35.
b. Clocking. The FD4 fantail contains the connectors that terminate
the cables from all I/O interfaces. The FD4 fantail contains four V.35
connectors configured as DTEs. This interface has clock-sourcing
capability allowing either the DCE or C/30E to provide
DCAC-350-180-( ) 4-2
the clock. The hardware can support external clock rates between 300 b/s
and 100 kb/s. Three internal clocks are provided at the following rates:
76.8 kb/s, 57.6 kb/s, 9.6 kb/s.
(1) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense is in accordance with
CCITT Recommendation V.35. A binary "0" (space) is transmitted when
terminal "A" is positive (+.55v +20%) to terminal "B" (-.55V +20%). A
binary 1 is transmitted when terminal "A" is negative (-.55v +20%) to
terminal "B" (+.55v +20%). The drivers produce a nominal 1.1 volts
peak-to-peak signal balanced with respect to ground.
c. Bit Rate/Cable Length.
(1) Maximum Cable Length. The recommended maximum cable length
between a V.35 DCE and DTE is 30 feet when overall shielded, low
capacitance, twisted pair cable is used. Cable lengths of 100 feet are
also possible.
d. Interchange Circuits.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in table 4-1.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 4-3
(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
under program control: either the software reacts to the circuit signal
when it changes, or the software can assert a circuit when necessary (such
as LL which can be used byoperations personnel for testing connections).
Unsupported circuits either are not read by the software or a value is
written to the circuit by the software, and that value does not change
during operation. Table 4-1 describes circuit use.
(3) Interchange Circuit Definitions. EIA-232-D signal names
are used throughout this chapter.
(a) Signal Ground. See EIA-232-D.
(b) DCE Ready. This circuit must be asserted ON by the
DCE, and it is monitored by the PSN software.
(c) Data Set Ready. This circuit must be asserted on by
the DCE, and it is monitored by the PSN.
(d) Transmitted Data. See EIA-232-D.
(e) Received Data. See EIA-232-D.
(f) Transmitter Signal Element Timing (DTE Source). See
EIA-232-D. Also see subsection 2.b of this guide. This circuit
DCAC-350-180-( ) 4-4
provides the clock for Transmitted Data when the PSN sources timing. The
frequency of this circuit should be equal to that of Terminal Receive
Timing.
(g) Transmitter Signal Element Timing (DCE Source). See
EIA-232-D. This circuit provides the clock for Transmitted Data when the
DCE sources timing.
(h) Receiver Signal Element Timing (DCE Source). See
EIA-232-D. This circuit provides clock for Received Data when the DCE
sources timing.
(i) Request to Send. This circuit is asserted ON by PSN
software when the link is initialized.
(j) Clear to Send. This circuit must be asserted ON by
the DCE and is monitored by PSN software to determine line status. If the
signal state on this line changes to OFF, the software macrocode will stop
data transmission.
(k) Received Line Signal Detector. This circuit must be
asserted ON by the DCE, and is monitored by PSN software to determine line
status. If the signal state on this line changes to OFF, the software
macrocode will stop receiving data.
(l) Terminal Receive Timing. This circuit is received by
another DTE via a crossover cable when the C/30E sources
DCAC-350-180-( ) 4-5
timing, providing clock for Received Data. The frequency of this circuit
should be equal to that of DTE-Sourced Transmitter Signal Element Timing.
This circuit is equivalent to DC in older versions of EIA-232, as
referenced in chapter 3.

3. Mechanical Characteristics. All V.35 connectors offered for the C/30E
meet the specifications provided in this section. Cables for this
interface, supplied by DDN, are equipped with an EIA-449 connector at one
end to mate with the EIA-449 connector on the C/30E fantail; the other end
provides a MIL-C-28748 34-pin connector to mate with the V.35 DCE.
a. Interface Connectors. All V.35 connectors on the C/30E fantail
are DC-37P type (male) connectors. They are wired as described in table
4-2.
(1) Intermating dimensions are in accordance with EIA-449-D.
(2) The means for C/30E DTE connectors to latch and unlatch from
the latching blocks on the DCE connector are within the dimensions
specified in EIA-449, section 3.3.1. DDN uses the English 4-40 thread
latching block.
b. Connector Contact Assignments. DDN standard node V.35 connector
contact assignments are in accordance with CCITT Recommendation V.35 and
ISO 2593. Table 4-2 provides DDN V.35 connector pin assignments. The
signals are used as specified in section 2.d.3.

CHAPTER 5. MIL-STD-188-114 NEIGHBOR OR NEARBY TRUNK INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the MIL-STD-188-114 balanced DTE interface that
connects the C/30E PSN with a modem. DDN supports Extended Modem Looping
(XMOD) through the MIL-STD-188-114 interface. This interface is largely in
conformance with the EIA-Standard 449/422, considered the general
commercial equivalent to MIL-STD-188-114. For ease of reference, Table
5-1 equates the EIA-449, EIA-232-D, and CCITT interface signal names.
However, in the rest of chapters 5 and 6, only the EIA-449 signal names
will be used.
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The electrical measurements of the C/30E 188-114
interface circuits are in accordance with MIL-STD-188-114, chapter 5,
except with regard to subsection 5.1.1.2: Open Circuit Measurement. The
C/30E open circuit driver voltage, measured in accordance with 5.1.1.2, is
less than +9.0V for balanced drivers and +4.5V for unbalanced drivers.

b. Clocking. Two fantails, MMB and MMBC, provide the EIA-449
connectors that terminate cables from all I/O interfaces. The MMB fantail
connector is configured as a DTE. When the MMB fantail is used, the DCE
must provide clock because the MMB fantail does not support clock-sourcing
capability. TheMMBC, a clock-sourcing enhanced fantail, is configured as
a DCE and can provide clock.
(1) MMBC Clock Rates. MMBC and MMB interface hardware support
any external clock between 1.2 kb/s and 112 kb/s. However, DDN policy is
that the minimum PSN bit rate be 9.6 kb/s. When MMBC clock-sourcing
capability is used, the MMBC on-board clock generator provides the
frequencies described in Table 5-2.

* Accuracy over a temperature range of 10 to 30 degrees C.
** PPM = Parts Per Million
DCAC-350-180-( ) 5-4
(2) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense for balanced and unbalanced
circuits is in accordance with EIA-422-A with the exception that the
differential voltage applied to the interconnecting cable is in the range
of 2 volts to 9 volts for the C/30E. As defined in EIA-422-A, ON (0,
Space, or +) is generated when A terminal is positive with respect to the
B terminal, and OFF (1, MARK, or -) is generated when A terminal is
negative with respect to the B terminal.
(3) On-Board Jumpers. There are three jumper option pairs on the
MMB:
--1 Used for RS-422 mode (balanced Category I cirduits)
--2 Used for RS-423 mode (unbalanced Category I circuits)
--3 Used for normal (univerted) data operation
--4 Used to invert transmit and receive data

section 6.10, and EIA Standard 422-A, section 4.3 and the appendix.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 5-5
(1) Maximum Cable Length. The maximum length of the cable is
1000 feet.
(2) Slew Rate Limiting. Signal rise time is set to 1 microsecond
(100 kb/s value).
d. Interchange Circuits. There are two EIA-449 trunk interfaces: a
non-clock-sourcing interface provided by the MMB daughterboard, and a
clock-sourcing interface provided by the MMBC daughterboard. The
difference in the implementation of these two interfaces is described in
this section, as well as in tables 5-3 and 5-4.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in Tables 5-3 and
5-4.
(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
under program control: the software canreact to a received signal when it
changes, and the software can assert a transmitted signal when necessary
(such as RS, TR, and LL which can be used by operations personnel for
testing connections). Unsupported circuits are either not read by the
software or a value is written to the circuit by the software and that
DCAC-350-180-( ) 5-6
value does not change during operation. Tables 5-3 and 5-4 provides a
list of circuits and their use.
(3) Interchange Circuit Definitions. For additional information
about these interchange circuits, see EIA Standard 449. The following
descriptions assume use of full period/full duplex circuits, with flow
control handled at higher levels.
(a) Signal Ground. See EIA Standard EIA-449.

tied OFF by the hardware. For the clock-sourcing interface, NS is not
connected.
(q) Select Frequency. For the non-clock-sourcing interface,
SF/SR is electrically active and asserted OFF by the hardware when the
link is initialized. For the clock-sourcing interface, SF/SR is not
connected.
(r) Signaling Rate Selector. See Select Frequency, 2.d.3.q
above for a description.
(s) Signaling Rate Indicator. SI is not connected.
(t) Local Loopback. For the non-clock-sourcing interfaces,
LL is electrically active, but asserted OFF by PSN software when the link
is initialized. LL can be controlled by the Monitoring Center. For the
clock-sourcing interface, LL is not connected.
(u) Remote Loopback. RL is electrically active, but
asserted OFF by PSN software when the link is initialized. For the
non-clock-sourcing interface, RL is not available for Monitoring Center
control. For the clock-sourcing interface, RL is asserted when another
DCE requests the PSN to enter remote loopback.
(v) Test Mode. For the non-clock-sourcing interface, TM
DCAC-350-180-( ) 5-9
is not connected. For the clock-sourcing interface, TM is OFF during
normal operations but ON during loopback operations to acknowledge the
loopback request from another DCE.
(w) Select Standby. For the non-clock-sourcing interface,
SS is tied OFF by hardware. For the clock-sourcing interface, SS is not
monitored by PSN software but it is used as the remote loop indicator when
the PSN requests another DCE to enter remote loopback.
(x) Standby Indicator. For the non-clock-sourcing
interface, SB is not connected. For the clock-sourcing interface, SB is
OFF during normal operations, and it is used as the remote loop request
signal for loopback operations when the PSN requests another DCE to enter
remote loopback.

4. Interconnecting Cables.
a. For interconnecting cable specifications, see chapter 1, section
4, of this guide.
b. Figure 5-1 is a cabling diagram of a C/30E PSN connected to a
nearby EIA-449 PSN via an MMB-MMBC configuration. Figure 5-2 is a
cabling diagram of a C/30E PSN connected to a nearby EIA-449 PSN via an
MMBC-MMBC configuration, the preferred configuration for the DDN. Figure
5-3 is an example of a cable used to interconnect the MMB-MMBC
configuration, whereas figure 5-4 illustrates the MMBC-MMBC nearby
EIA-449 PSN connection.
(1) Conductor Size. Interconnecting cables should be in
accordance with MIL-STD-188-114, Appendix 10, with regard to conductor
size
(subsection 10.1.1). Interconnecting cables or wires should be composed
of wires of a 24 AWG or larger conductor for solid or stranded copper
wires, or for non-copper conductors a sufficient size to yield a dc wire
resistance not to exceed 30 ohms/1000 feet per conductor.
(2) Mutual Pair Capacitance. In accordance with MIL-STD-188-114,
the capacitance between one wire in the pair to the other wire in the pair
should not exceed 20 picofarads/foot, and the value should be reasonably
uniform over the length of the wire or cable.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 5-14
(3) Stray Capacitance. In accordance with MIL-STD-188-144, the
capacitance between ome wire in the cable to all others in the cable
sheath, with all others connected to ground, should not exceed 40
picofarads/foot, and should be reasonably uniform for a given conductor
over the lenght of the wire or cable.
(4) Pair-to-Pair Balanced Crosstalk. In accordance with
MIL-STD-188-144, Appendix 10, with regard to pair-to-pair balanced
crosstalk (subsection 10.1.4), the crosstalk from one pair of wires to any
other pair in the same cable sheath should have a minimun value of 40 dB
attenuation measured at 150 kHz.

CHAPTER 6. MIL-STD-188-114 REMOTE TRUNK INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the MIL-STD-188-114 balanced remote trunk interface.
DDN supports Extended Modem Looping (XMOD) through the MIL-STD-188-114
interface. This chapter also documents the interface between the remote
modem and the PSN (demarcation point A in figure 6-1) with no intervening
cryptographic devices (KG-84As). Eventually KG-84As will be required for
all trunk circuits; therefore, chapter 6 also provides an example of the
cabling that connects from the remote modem to the remote Fixed Plant
Adapter (FPA) and then to the PSN (demarcation point B in figure 6-2).
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The modems used will conform to EIA Standard
449. The electrical interface of the KG-84A is in accordance with
MIL-STD-188-114, chapter 5, except with regard to subsection 5.1.1.2: Open
Circuit Measurement. The open circuit driver voltage, measured in
accordance with section 5.1.1.2 of this
DCAC-350-180-( ) 6-2
statement, is less than +9.0V for balanced drivers and +4.50V for
unbalanced drivers.
b. Clocking.
(1) Modem Clocking. The modem supplies timing on the Send Timing
and Receive Timing circuits. Terminal Timing isnot supported for remote
PSN interfaces. While the DDN hardware will support between 1.2 kb/s and
64 kb/s, DDN policy states that the minimum PSN access rate be 9.6 kb/s.

(2) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense for balanced and unbalanced
circuits is in accordance with EIA Standard 422-A with the exception of
the differential voltage, which applied to the interconnecting cable, is
in the C/30E range of 2 volts to 9 volts. As defined in EIA Standard
422-A, ON (0, Space, or +) is generated when the A terminal is positive
with respect to the B terminal, and OFF (1, MARK, or -) is generated when
the A terminal is negative with respect to the B terminal.
c. Bit Rate and Cable Length.
(1) EIA-449 Compliance. Interconnecting cable length and its
relation to data signaling rates are in accordance with EIA Standard 449,
section 6.10, and EIA Standard 422-A, section 4.3 and the Appendix.
(2) Maximum Cable Length. The maximum cable length between the
remote modem and the PSN, including the intervening FPA is 1000 feet;
however, cable lengths less than 200 feet are preferred.
d. Interchange Circuits.
(1) C/30E Local Modem Interface.
(a) Signal flow between the C/30E and the local modem is
shown in figure 6-3. This interface and associated hardware are provided
by DDN. The signal flow is the same when a KG-84A is used. This
interface uses EIA-449 pin assignments.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 6-5
(b) As shown in figure 6-3, the supported signals are Send
Data (SD), Send Timing (ST), Receive Data (RD), and Receive Timing (RT).
Clear to Send (CS), Data Mode (DM), and ReceiverReady (RR) are tied ON by
the cable connected to the fantail.Terminal Ready (TR) is being used for
the Remote Loopback (RL) function. Request to Send (RS) is being used for
the Local Loopback (LL) function. The signal LL is being used for the
COMSEC Loopback (CL) described below.
(c) A special DDN-specific loopback signal, CL, is provided
as shown in figure 6-3. The Local Loopback (LL) signal is used by the PSN
to loop the local KG-84A and is designated as "C" loop or CL (standing
for COMSEC Loopback) in figure 6-3 after it leaves the C/30E fantail.
3. Mechanical Characteristics. All EIA-449/422 connectors offered for
the C/30E meet the specifications of this section.
a. Interface Connectors. DDN MIL-STD-188-114 DCE connectors are
DC-37S type (female) and DC-37P type (male) connectors. The DDN FPA uses
an MS connector on the KGAB counter assemblies.
b. Connector Contact Assignments.
(1) C/30E Connectors. All DDN EIA-449/422 contact assignments
are in accordance with EIA Standard 449, section 3.4. In chapter 1, Table
DCAC-350-180-( ) 6-6
5-4 provides the standard DTE pinouts and section 2.d.3 of the Standard
provides circuit descriptions.
(2) KGAB Connectors. KGAB connectors to the remote C/30E and the
remote modem are shown in Tables 6-2 and 6-3, respectively.

CHAPTER 7. EIA-232-D NEIGHBOR OR NEARBY TRUNK INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the obsolete DDN EIA-232-D PSNconnection at the
neighbor or nearby PSN. DDN supports Extended Modem Looping (XMOD)
through the EIA-232-D interface. For ease of reference, Table 7-1 equates
the EIA-232-D, EIA-449, and CCITT interface signal names. However, in the
rest of this chapter, only the EIA-232-D signal name will be used. DDN
uses the EIA-232-D interface only where an existing non-DDN standard PSN
provides such an interface, and it is not feasible to install a
MIL-STD-188-114 balanced interface prior to upgrading the entire node to
DDN standard (MIL-STD-188-114 balanced serial trunk interfaces).
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The electrical measurements of the C/30E
EIA-232-D interface circuits are in accordance with EIA Standard 232-D,
section 2.1. For normal operation, the open circuit driver voltage shall
be no more than +15 V.
b. Clocking.
(1) Supported Clock Rates. The MMR fantail contains the
DCAC-350-180-( ) 7-2
connector that terminates a cable from all the DTE. The fantail contains
one EIA-232-D connector configured as a DTE. This interface has no
clock-sourcing capability. The hardware can support external clock rates
between 1.2 kb/s and 112 kb/s. However, DDN policy is 9.6 kb/s for the
minimum PSN bit rate and 19.2 kb/s for the maximum rate.
(2) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense is in accordance with EIA
Standard 232-D, subsection 2.1.3. The signal is considered marking (OFF)
when the voltage on the interchange circuit is more negative than -3 V
with respect to signal ground, and spacing (ON) when the voltage is more
positive than +3 V with respect to signal ground.
c. Bit Rate and Cable Length. Interconnecting cable length is in
accordance with EIA-232-D, section 3.1. The recommended maximum cable
length between an EIA-232-D DCE and DTE is 200 feet when overall shielded,
low capacitance, twisted pair cable is used.
d. Interchange Circuits.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in Table 7-2.

(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
under program control: either the software reacts to a received signal
when it changes, or the software can assert a transmitted signal when
necessary (such as LL which can be used by operations personnel for
testing connections). Unsupported circuits are either not read by the
software or a value is written to the circuit by the software, and that
value does not change during operation. Table 7-2 provides a list of
circuits and their use.
(3) Interchange Circuit Definitions.
(a) Signal Ground. See EIA Standard 232-D.
(b) DCE Ready. This circuit is not monitored by the PSN
software.
(c) DTE Ready. This circuit is asserted OFF by PSN software
when the link is initialized. Available for Monitoring Center control.
(d) Transmitted Data. See EIA Standard 232-D.
(e) Received Data. See EIA Standard 232-D.
(f) Transmitter Signal Element Timing (DCE Source). See EIA
Standard 232-D. This circuit provides the clock for Transmitted Data when
the DCE sources timing.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 7-5
(g) Receiver Signal Element Timing (DCE Source). See EIA
Standard 232-D. This circuit provides clock for Received Data when the
DCE sources timing.
(h) Request to Send. This circuit is asserted OFFby PSN
software when the link is initialized. Available for Monitoring Center
control.
(i) Clear to Send. This circuit must be asserted ON by the
DCE, but it is not monitored by the PSN software.
(j) Received Line Signal Detector. This circuit must be
asserted ON by the DCE, but it is not monitored by the PSN software.

CHAPTER 8. V.35 REMOTE TRUNK INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the obsolete DDN V.35 connection between two remote
PSNs. DDN standard does not support neighbor or nearby V.35 PSN-PSN
connections. Like the EIA-232 interface, the V.35 interface is used only
where an existing non-DDN-standard PSN provides such an interface, and it
is not feasible to install a MIL-STD-188-114 balanced interface prior to
upgrading the entire node to DDN-standard (MIL-STD-188-114 balanced serial
PSN interfaces). All control signals have electrical characteristics of
EIA-232-D, and EIA-232-D signal names are used in the rest of this
chapter. The data and timing signals conform to Recommendation V.35. DDN
supports Extended Modem Looping (XMOD) through the V.35 interface.
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels. The electrical measurements of the C/30E V.35
interface circuits are in accordance with CCITT Recommendation V.35.
b. Clocking. The MMV interface hardware contains the connectors
that terminate the cables from all I/O interfaces. The MMV fantail
contains one V.35 connector configured as a DTE. This interface has no
clock-sourcing capability. The hardware can support external clock rates
between 300 b/s and 100 kb/s.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 8-2
(1) Signaling Sense. Signaling sense is in accordance with
CCITT Recommendation V.35. A binary "0" (space) is transmitted when
terminal "A" is positive (+.55v +20%) to terminal "B" (-.55V +20%). A
binary 1 is transmitted when terminal "A" is negative (-.55v +20%) to
terminal "B" (+.55v +20%). The drivers produce a nominal 1.1 volts
peak-to-peak signal balanced with respect to ground.
c. Bit Rate/Cable Length.
(1) Maximum Cable Length. The recommended maximum cable length
between a V.35 DCE and DTE is 30 feet when overall shielded, low
capacitance, twisted pair cable is used. Cable lengths of up to 2000
feet are also possible with the proper cables, see LOR-0023-003 for more
details.
d. Interchange Circuits.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in Table 8-1.
(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
DCAC-350-180-( ) 8-3
under program control: either the software reacts to the circuit signal
when it changes, or the software can assert a circuit when necessary (such
as LL which can be used by operations personnel for testing connections).
Unsupported circuits either are not read by the software or a value is
written to the circuit by the software, and that value does not change
during operation. Table 8-1 describes circuit use.
(3) Interchange Circuit Definitions. EIA-232-D signal names
are used throughout this chapter.
(a) Signal Ground. See EIA-232-D.
(b) DCE Ready. This circuit must be asserted ON by the
DCE, but it is not monitored by the PSN software.
(c) Transmitted Data. See EIA-232-D.
(d) Received Data. See EIA-232-D.
(e) Transmitter Signal Element Timing (DTE Source). See
EIA-232-D. Also see subsection 2.b of this guide. This circuit provides
the clock for Transmitted Data when the PSN sources timing. The frequency
of this circuit is equal to that of Transmitter Signal Element Timing.
(f) Transmitter Signal Element Timing (DCE Source). See
EIA-232-D. This circuit optionally provides the clock for Transmitted
Data when the DCE sources timing.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 8-4
(g) Receive Signal Element Timing (DCE). This circuit
optimally provides the clock for received data when the DCE sources
timing.
(h) Request to Send. This circuit is asserted OFF by the
PSN software. Available for Monitoring Center control.
(i) Clear to Send. This circuit must be asserted ON by
the DCE, but it is not monitored by PSN software.
(j) Received Line Signal Detector. This circuit must be
asserted ON by the DCE, but it is not monitored by PSN software.
(k) Data Terminal Ready. This circuit is asserted OFF by
the PSN software. Available for Monitoring Center control.
(l) Local Test Loopback. This circuit is asserted OFF by
the PSN software. Available for Monitoring Center control.

characteristics of the BELL 303 DTE interface that connects the C/30E PSN
with a modem. This interface is in conformance with the BELL 303
standard, cited in chapter of this guide. The BELL 303 interface is used
only where an existing non-DDN-standard PSN provides such an interface,
and it is not feasible to install a MIL-STD-188-114 balanced interface
prior to upgrading the entire node to DDN-standard (MIL-STD-188-114
balanced serial PSN interfaces). DDN supports Extended Modem Looping
(XMOD) through the BELL 303 interface. For ease of reference, table 9-1
equates the EIA-449, BELL 303, and CCITT interface signal names. In the
remainder of the BELL 303 discussion, the EIA-449 signal name will be
used.
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels and Signaling Sense. The electrical measurements
of the C/30E interface circuits are in accordance with Bell 303. The
cable drivers operate into, and the cable terminators operate from coaxial
cables, with 75 ohms to 120 ohms characteristic impedance. The high
speed interface is provided on a current switching basis. A binary "1",
Control "OFF" or "marking" signal is represented by a current less than 5
DCAC-350-180-( ) 9-2
ma into 100 ohms. A binary "0", Control "ON" or "spacing" signal is
represented by a current greater than 23 ma into 100 ohms. All
interchange circuits are fail-safe in that an open circuit is considered a
control OFF or Mark Hold condition.
The above-mentioned currents are supplied at the output of the cable
drivers. The open circuit voltage of the terminator will range between
-1.3 and -0.8 volts. The negative voltage is added by a bias in the
terminator. With greater than 23 ma into 100 ohms supplied to a cable
terminator, the terminator input voltage is more positive than +1.0
volts. An open circuit must be recognized by a terminator as OFF, as
mentioned above.

b. Clocking. Two fantails, MMI and MML, provide the connectors that
terminate cables from all I/O interfaces. The MMI fantail connector is
configured as a DTE. When the MMI fantail is used, the DCE must provide
clock because the MMI fantail does not support clock-sourcing capability.
The MML, a clock-sourcing enhanced fantail, is configured as a DCE and
provides clock.
(1) MML Clock Rates. MML and MMI interface hardware support any
external clock between 1.2 kb/s and 112 kb/s. However, DDN policy states
that the minimum PSN bit rate be 9.6 kb/s. When MML clock-sourcing
capability is used, the MML on-board clock generator provides the
following frequencies: 230.4 kb, 50 kb, 19.2 kb. The 230.4 kb rate is not
supported by operational software.
(2) Maximum Cable Length. The maximum length of the cable is 50
feet. The MMI-configured PSN connector has a DC-37P type (male) as the
DTE and the MML-configured PSN connector has a DC-37S (female) as the
DCE. Cable lengths greater than 200 feet may be possible. The BELL 303
specification, section 7, should be consulted.
d. Interchange Circuits. The BELL 303 interface is provided by the
MMI motherboard upon which is attached an MMI/MML daughterboard.
(1) Electrical Use of Interchange Circuits. The DDN electrical
use of interchange circuits is either static or active. Static circuits
are tied by the hardware so that the signal state remains constant on the
DCAC-350-180-( ) 9-5
line, either ON or OFF. Active circuits change their state under program
control. DDN use of the interchange circuits is shown in table 9-2.
(2) Software Use of Interchange Circuits. Interchange circuit
signals are used by the software in different ways. Active circuits are
under program control: the software can react to a received signal when it
changes, and the software can assert a transmitted signal when necessary
(such as LL, which can be used by operations personnel for testing
connections). Unsupported circuits either are not read by the software or
a value is written to the circuit by the software. That value does not
change during operation. Table 9-2 provides a list of circuits and their
use.
(3) Interchange Circuit Definitions. For additional information
about these interchange circuits, see EIA Standard 449. The following
descriptions assume use of full period/full duplex circuits, with flow
control handled at higher levels.
(a) Signal Ground. See EIA Standard 449.
(b) Send Data. See EIA Standard 449.
(c) Receive Data. See EIA Standard 449.
(d) Send Timing. See EIA Standard 449.
(e) Receive Timing. See EIA Standard 449.
DCAC-350-180-( ) 9-6
(f) Local Loopback. LL is asserted OFF by PSN software when
the link is initialized. LL can be controlled by the Monitoring Center.

3. Mechanical Characteristics. All BELL 303 connectors offered for the
C/30E meet the following specifications.
a. Interface Connectors. The C/30E MMI/MML BELL 303 connector DC-37P
type (male) connectors.
(1) Intermating dimensions are in accordance with EIA Standard
449, section 3.3.1.
(2) The means for C/30E DTE connectors to latch and unlatch from
the latching blocks on the DCE connector are within the dimensions
specified in EIA Standard 449, section 3.3.2. DDN uses the English 4-40
thread latching block.
b. Connector Contact Assignments. All C/30E BELL 303 contact
assignments, as shown in table 9-3, provide the DDN
standard node connector pinout. The signals are used asspecified in EIA
Standard 449 section 2.d.3.

4. Interconnecting Cables.
a. Interconnecting cables must be low capacitance, multiple twisted
pair that result in a transmission line with a nominal characteristic
impedance on the order of 100 ohms to frequencies greater than 100 kHz,
and a dc series loop resistance not exceeding 240 ohms. The overall braid
shield must have at least 85% coverage.
(1) Conductor Size. Interconnecting cables or wires should be
composed of wires of a 24 AWG or larger conductor for solid or stranded
copper wires, or for non-copper conductors a sufficient size to yield a dc
wire resistance not to exceed 30 ohms/1000 feet per conductor.
(2) Mutual Pair Capacitance. The capacitance between one wire
in the pair to the other wire in the pair should not exceed 20
picofarads/foot, and the value should be reasonably uniform over the
length of the wire or cable.
(3) Stray Capacitance. The capacitance between one wire in the
cable to all others in the cable sheath, with all others connected to
ground, should not exceed 40 picofarads/foot,and should be reasonably
uniform for a given conductor over the length of the wire or cable.
(4) Pair-to-Pair Balanced Crosstalk. The crosstalk from on pair
of wires to any other pair in the same cable sheath should have a minimum
value of 40 dB attenuation measured at 150 kHz.

CHAPTER 10. BELL 303 REMOTE TRUNK INTERFACE
1. Overview. This chapter describes the electrical and mechanical
characteristics of the BELL 303 balanced remote trunk interface. This
chapter documents the interface between the remote modem and the PSN
(demarcation point A in figure 10-1) with no intervening cryptographic
devices (KG-84As). The DDN standard is a MIL-STD-188-114 balanced
interface, and the BELL 303 is used only when it is not feasible to
install the standard. DDN supports Extended Modem Looping (XMOD)
through the BELL 303 interface.
2. Electrical Characteristics.
a. Voltage Levels and Signaling Sense. The modems used will conform
to BELL 303.
b. Clocking.
(1) Modem Clocking. The modem supplies timing on the Send Timing
and Receive Timing circuits. Terminal Timing is not supported for remote
PSN interfaces. While the DDN hardware will support between 1.2 kb/s and
64 kb/s, DDN policy is that the minimum PSN access rate be 9.6 kb/s.

(b) As shown in figure 10-2, the supported signals are Send
Data (SD), Serial Clock Transmit (ST), Receive Data (RD), and Serial Clock
Receive (SR) and Local Test (LL).
3. Mechanical Characteristics.
a. Interface Connectors. The PSN end of the cable has a connector
of the DC-37S type (female) and the DCE end of the cable connector
has a Burndy MD12MXP-17TC plug with a Burndy M2H50RC-1P2 protective
shield.
