Introduction to Serial Communication

Transmission system encodes bits into electrical voltage using methods like NRZ-L or AMI

Some of the many serial communications standards include the following:

RS-232-E V.35 High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI)

DTE/DCE Interface

• The DTE/DCE interface for a particular standard defines the following specifications:

Mechanical/physical - Number of pins and connector type

Electrical - Defines voltage levels for 0 and 1

Functional - Specifies the functions that are performed by assigning meanings to each of the signaling lines in the interface

Procedural - Specifies the sequence of events for transmitting data

Troubleshooting a Serial Interface

• Five possible problem states can be identified in the interface status line of the show interface serial display:

Serial x is down, line protocol is down.

Serial x is up, line protocol is down.

Serial x is up, line protocol is up (looped).

Serial x is up, line protocol is down (disabled).

Serial x is administratively down, line protocol is down.
