The CPD-100 is an E1 protection channel switching device that provides E1 1+1 transmission line protection over a standard 2M transmission channel (G.703), designed to power-utility protection channel standards. It automatically selects the E1 channel with the best signal quality between the primary and backup lines based on on-site line conditions, safeguarding the reliability and security of critical E1 link data transmission. Supporting lossy, lossless, automatic, and manual switching modes, it also provides comprehensive network management that monitors E1 channel signal quality and device status in real time, reporting to the ZJPManager network management platform.
Is This the Right Fit?
Six real deployment scenarios matched to this model's actual datasheet specifications.
- Only 2 standard E1 primary/backup channels plus 1 E1 important-link interface per chassis — not intended as a high-density multi-circuit E1 aggregation device.
- IP40 metal enclosure only — needs a rack cabinet or additional protection for direct outdoor rain/dust exposure.
- Rated operating temperature is -10°C to 60°C only — no extended/wide-temperature variant is listed for this series, so it is not suited to unheated sub-zero outdoor sites.
Key Features

Dimensions

Who uses it, where it goes and how to install it
Written for the CPD-100 from its own specifications: E1 1+1 protection over 2 primary/backup E1 channels, switching time ≤ 1ms, E1 bypass on power loss, dual -48V DC / AC220V power, 19-inch 1U rack.
Who it is for
- Power utilities and substations — Relay-protection and teleprotection circuits carried on 2M (E1) channels, where a primary and a backup route already exist and the switchover must take ≤ 1ms. The datasheet states compliance with the State Grid standard Q/GDW 11637-2016 for 2M protection channel switching devices.
- Railway, pipeline and mine communication operators — Dedicated E1 networks for signalling, SCADA or dispatch voice: LOS, LOF, AIS, RAI and bit-error alarms decide the switchover, and every event is reported to ZJPManager.
- Telecom and SDH/PDH transmission teams — Adds 1+1 path protection in front of a single E1 user port when the transmission equipment itself cannot protect that circuit; HDB3, 2048kbit/s ± 50ppm, framed or unframed, per G.703/G.704/G.823.
- System integrators of utility communication projects — One 1U box per protected circuit, 1 RJ45 out-of-band management port plus in-band management over E1, and power that matches either a -48V DC battery plant or AC220V mains.
Where and how to install
- Rack position — Mount it in a 19-inch rack or communication cabinet, close to the SDH/PDH or multiplexer that terminates the two E1 routes, so the E1 jumpers stay short. It takes 1U and is 311 mm deep, so check the cabinet depth and leave the rear free for cables.
- Impedance and cabling — Match the line type before ordering: 75Ω unbalanced (coax) or 120Ω balanced (twisted pair). Do not mix a 75Ω port and a 120Ω line without a proper balun, and label primary, backup and user cables clearly so they are not swapped during maintenance.
- Two truly separate routes — 1+1 protection only helps if the primary and backup E1 travel on different fibres, cables or transmission paths. Keep the delay difference between the two paths within ≤ 30ms, especially if you plan to use lossless switching.
- Power and grounding — Feed the two built-in supplies from two different sources (for example two DC breakers or two battery strings) so one failure does not take both down. The -48V DC input accepts -36V to -72V and the unit draws ≤ 10 W. Bond the chassis to the rack ground bar with a short earth lead.
- Environment — Indoor equipment room or a climate-controlled cabinet only: operating temperature -10°C to 60°C, humidity ≤ 95% (at 25°C), IP40 metal housing. Do not place it in unheated outdoor boxes that go below -10°C or where water can drip on it.
- Commissioning — Before putting the protected service on it, use the E1 data loopback to check each route, then pull the primary cable once and confirm traffic moves to the backup and the alarm reaches ZJPManager. Record which mode (lossy/lossless, manual/automatic) you left it in.
Link planning: what the CPD-100 needs on site
The CPD-100 sits between two E1 routes and one user E1 port. The rows below are the values to check against your transmission equipment and power plant before ordering.
| CPD-100 | |
|---|---|
| E1 line interfaces | 2 × E1 (primary/backup) + 1 × user E1 |
| Management port | 1 × RJ45 (out-of-band TCP/IP) + in-band E1 |
| Bit rate / line code | 2048kbit/s ± 50ppm · HDB3 |
| Impedance | 75Ω unbalanced / 120Ω balanced |
| Frame structure | Framed, unframed |
| Switching time | ≤ 1ms |
| System delay / two-path delay difference | ≤ 30ms / ≤ 30ms |
| Power input | -48V DC (-36V ~ -72V) or AC220V, dual 1+1 |
| Power consumption | ≤ 10 W |
| Operating temperature / humidity | -10°C ~ 60°C / ≤ 95% (25°C) |
| Housing / mounting | IP40 metal · 19-inch 1U · 440 × 44 × 311 mm |
- Pick lossless switching only when both routes have a stable, similar delay (difference ≤ 30ms); otherwise lossy switching is the simpler choice.
- Pick the -48V DC input in substations and telecom rooms with a battery plant, so the protection channel keeps running during a mains outage.
