Shelves
This chapter describes the structure, configurations, functions
and principles, interfaces, DIP switches and jumpers of ZXG10
iTC shelves.
Overview
The shelf combines various boards through the backplane to
form an independent unit, and provides good running
environment for the boards.
ZXG10 iTC system has four types of shelves:
Functions
Control shelf
Resource shelf
Packet switching shelf
Circuit switching shelf
Table 13 explains the types and functions of these shelves:

TABLE 13 TYPES AND FUNCTIONS OF SHELVES
Shelf Type
Shelf Function
Control
shelf
Implements global operation and maintenance

functions, global clock function, control plane
processing, and control plane switching and Ethernet.
Resource
shelf
Implements system access, and forms all general

service subsystems.
Packet

shelf
Implements the core packet switching function

between functional entities in and outside the system.
Circuit

shelf
Provides a circuit switching platform of large capacity

and little congestion.
27
Shelf Configurations
Figure 34 shows the shelf configurations of ZXG10 iTC cabinet.
FIGURE 34 ZXG10 ITC SHELF CONFIGURATIONS
Resource shelf should be configured in the second and third

shelves of iTC cabinet and control shelf is configured in the
second shelf of the third cabinet if needed. For one or two
cabinet iTC configuration, control shelfs boards are distributed
in other shelves because of the lack of enough space to have a
separate shelf.
Packet switching shelf and circuit switching shelf should be
configured in the fourth and first shelves respectively.
Backplane
Backplane is an important part of a shelf. Circuit boards in a
shelf connect through printed lines on the backplane. It reduces
the cable routing on the back of backplane and improves
reliability of the whole system.
Figure 35 shows the backplane structure.

four rack iTC, a control shelf is configured because more CMP
boards are required. Configure four PRCBU for three-rack iTC
with two CMPs in control shelf and six PRCBU for four-rack iTC
with six CMPs in control shelf. Figure 36 shows the full
configuration of control shelf for three-rack iTC. It is assumed
that CLKG and SBCX are configured in circuit switching shelf
while CHUB and OMP are configured in resource shelf depending
on the requirements.

iTC supports to configure a pair of CLKG boards. CLKG is

a part of the control shelf but is configured on the circuit
switching shelf in case the iTC is one or two cabinet. The
system clock is distributed to switching shelves and
resource shelves via the cable.
OMP and SBCX boards are connected with iTC Network
Management System (iTCM) through Hub, isolating the
internal and external network segment. The iTCM could
reside on the SBCX board or on an external server.
CHUB is the center where the control flows of the
switching shelf, the resource shelf, and the control shelf
gather.
31
Intra-shelf signal processing

BCTC backplane bears signaling processing board and MS
modules. It gathers and processes the control plane data
forming a distributed processing platform in the multishelf system.
UIMC is the signaling switching center of the control shelf,

implementing the information switching between modules.
OMP board is responsible for the global processing and

controls O&M of the whole system (including O&M agent).
OMP board is the core of ZXG10 iTCM. It directly or

indirectly monitors and manages the boards. OMP board
uses Ethernet and RS485 to configure and manage the
boards.
SBCX is connected with iTCM via Hub. It saves some files
needed by OMP, and organizes these files according to
the form required by iTCM.
CMP board is connected with the switching unit of control

plane, implementing all the protocol processing on control
plane.

The packet domain packet switching shelf implements data inter

working, including timing, signaling, voice service and data
service. It provides the QoS function for different subscribers
according to service requirements.
The packet domain packet switching shelf adopts a high-speed
switching backplane. Network processing boards first perform
physical interface data routing transfer; then implement data
switching by sending the data to the switching network via the
high-speed switching connection of the backplane; they also
receive data from the switching network and send the data via
the physical interface after processing.

Boards
This chapter describes the functions and structure of ZXG10 iTC
boards.
Overview
According to the hardware assembly relation, boards can be
classified as front board and rear board.
Front board has a front panel. Indicators on the front panel

indicate the board status. Front board can be inserted in the
slots.
Rear board consists of the external interfaces and debugging
interfaces. These interfaces are used to interconnect shelves
of same cabinet or different cabinets. The rear board and the
front board work together. For some active/standby front
board, it is necessary to configure two kinds of rear boards.
Front board and rear board are installed in the slots on the
backplane.
Front board and rear board form a complete metal shield
inside the shelf, reducing the external electromagnetic
radiation of the system and enhancing the anti-interference
capability.
Figure 59 shows the board assembly relation.

Functions of Power Distribution (PWRD) board are as follows:
Principles
82
Provides -48 V power to shelves and fans inside the cabinet.

Detects rack power and the environment, and generates
alarms accordingly.
Detects and control the fans.
PWRD is monitored and managed by OMP through RS485
interface. It reports the detected information to OMP and
indicates through indicators on the power distribution plug-in
box panel.
Figure 77 shows the structure of PWRD.
Chapter 4 - Boards
FIGURE 77 STRUCTURE OF PWRD
By structure, PWRD falls into the following parts: One PDM, one
PWRD, one PWRDB and four fan group control modules.
PDM implements filter, lightning protection and isolation on

2-channel -48 V, sends it to the busbar to supply shelves,
samples and sends the samples to PWRD for over-/undervoltage monitoring before the 2-channel power supply
convergence.
PWRD detects the 2-channel -48 V over-/under-voltage,
speed of 24 fans, ambient temperature, ambient humidity,
smoke alarm, infrared alarm, cabinet, and equipment room
door control.
PDM and PWRD form a power distribution plug-in box.
2 3 fan group and the fan group control module form a fan
plug-in box.
Fan plug-in box takes -48 V from the busbar and sends fan
monitoring signals to PWRD.

S2 switch is used to set the address for 485 communications,

with ON being 0 and OFF being 1.
S3 configuration switch is used to set working mode, with ON
being 0 and OFF being 1. ON is labeled on the switch. 485
addresses are 0, and value of configuration switch is 0100, by
default.
There is a 2 5 pin jumper on PWRD, serving as a connection
jumper X8 for 485 signals.
When ZXG10 iTC system uses multiple cabinets, it is necessary
to set the working mode for 485 bus of PWRD according to rack
positions. Resistance terminals are necessary if PWRD is at the
end of the 485 bus. 485 signals need to be transmitted to output
if PWRD is at the middle of the bus.
Figure 79 shows the default jumper settings.

Specific jumper connections are as follows:

For 485 bus end node: connect pin 1 to 2 and pin 9 to 10.
For 485 bus middle node, 485 single transmission: connect pin 3
to 4 and pin 7 to 8.

multiplexing. Also, this enables 8 M 32 M multiplexing and

interfacing over 16 K time slots, which utilizes frame
interleaving to provide the resource shelf with 128 X 8 Mbps
HWs.
Principles
The board provides the resource shelf with 16 K circuit

switching function. The function does not coexist with
external multiplexing function. The circuit switching network
board is configured in UIMT through inserting a daughter
card.
The circuit switching network board configuration is not

required in UIMT. This is because the circuit switching
network board has been configured while configuring BCSN
shelf.
By selecting and configuring daughter card GXS, it provides

outward GE optical interface at media plane, which
interconnects BUSN shelf and BPSN shelf implementing IP
media stream switching. GE optical interface is backed up
over active and standby channels.
By selecting and configuring daughter card GTS, it provides

outward TDM optical multiplexing interface at media plane,
which
interconnects
BUSN
shelf
and
BCSN
shelf
implementing TDM media stream switching. TDM optical
multiplexing interface is backed up over active and standby
channels.

Alarm Indicator
Chapter 4 - Boards
There are four alarm indicators. Colored red, blue, yellow

and green in the order of severity. When alarm occurs,
the corresponding indicator will flash or be ON for a long
time.
There is no individual alarm indicator for environment
alarm, but it is handled as a certain level alarm.
f
Voice Announcement
The main control unit works in transparent HDLC mode, it
sends the PCM voice saved in FLASH to the PCM
coder/decoder chip (CODEC) for coding, and the data is
converted to linear signal. Then the power amplifier
drives the speaker, and the audible alarm is produced.
The voice management at background realizes the voice
recording, edit and pre-play, and downloads the voice file
into the FLASH of the alarm box.
LCD
LCD is hung on the parallel bus of the main control unit.
LCM size is proper and it is all-dots graphic display.
Characters font size is controlled by software to display
different types of information.
LED has back facet power, which is generally OFF
resulting in increased life of the LED. When pressing the
function button or displaying information, the back facet
power turns ON to display.
There are some function buttons on the alarm box, which
are used to perform the operation and maintenance
functions together with LCM.

Power Unit
The input voltage of the alarm box is -48 V DC from the
equipment room, and is converted to +5 V, +3.3 V and other
voltages for each unit by DC-DC power converter.
When the alarm box is in the duty room outside the equipment
room, there may not be -48 V DC power, in this case, a external
AC/DC power adapter is required to convert 110/220 V AC to 48 V DC, providing -48 V DC power to the alarm box. AC/DC
power adaptor is an optional accessory of the alarm box.
