3. 7670 TN OVERVIEW

Warning: This section is UA release independent and for information ONLY.

3.1. UMTS NETWORK OVERVIEW
Alcatel-Lucent take advantage of transport nodes (often referred to as Point of Concentration
nodes) to provide additional features and functionality, not supported natively on the RNC. The
following two Alcatel-Lucent products have been identified:
The Alcatel-Lucent 7670 Routing Switch Platform (RSP). This product is proposed to
replace the Nortel PP 15K POC.
The Alcatel-Lucent 7670 Edge Service Extender (ESE). This product is proposed to
replace the Nortel PP 7K POC.
This is the support of the Alcatel-Lucent 7670 ESE & RSP transport nodes to interoperate with
the RNC 1500 of the Alcatel-Lucent UTRAN portfolio in UA05. Initially only interoperability is
requested with no W-NMS integration.

4. 7670 RSP DESCRIPTION
4.1. 7670 RSP OVERALL HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
4.1.1 7670 RSP NETWORK ELEMENT AND NODES
The 7670 RSP is a carrier-grade multi-service IP platform enabling service providers to offer L2
and L3 services in their native mode.
The 7670 RSP Transport Node provides high density ATM/IMA termination, ATM VP/VC
switching, and advanced VP shaping features required at the RNC location.

Figure 4.1-1: 7670 RSP Transport Node OC3/STM1 on Iub/Iu
Note : Those cards, ESC, MR16 and MR48 are presented in next chapter.

4.1.2 7670 RSP SINGLE SHELF DESCRIPTION
The 7670 RSP is a single-shelf platform that is front mounted in an industry-standard
23in. rack, supporting a switching capacity of 50 Gb/s bi-directional.

Figure 4.1-2: 7670 RSP Single Shelf
The 7670 RSP single shelf system has a mid-plane design in which field-replaceable
cards are inserted in the front and rear of the shelf. For each line card you install, an
I/O card is required in the rear of the shelf, as illustrated in the below figure.
Note: All cabling is located at the rear of the shelf.

Figure 4.1-3: 7670 RSP Midplane Design

The 7670 RSP contains system, line and I/O cards. System cards control and manage
the switch. Line cards process L2/L3 network traffic. I/O cards provide the interface
between the network and the line cards.

4.1.3 7670 RSP LOCATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL SPECIFICATION
You must install the system in an equipment rack or cabinet located indoors, in a dry,
clean, well-ventilated and well-illuminated area. The system accommodates cabling
for either raised-floor or overhead cable rack environments.

Table 4.1-1: 7670 RSP Site specification

4.1.4 7670 RSP SHELF SPECIFICATION
The RSP 7670 shelf must be installed in a 23 in cabinet. Do not install a 7670 RSP
shelf in a closed cabinet, regardless of system or shelf configuration; otherwise,
thermal shutdown and/or failure may result. Alcatels closed cabinet design (2200 mm
900 mm 750 mm ETSI footprint) with custom cooling vents is the only exception to
this rule. For seismic installations, we recommend installation of a 7670 RSP shelf in
an Alcatel 23 in, 7 ft Zone 4 seismic rack with a custom airflow base (44 RU).
All 7670 RSP shelves are 600 mm deep, including fiber management.

Note (1) : Peripheral shelf is the standard shelf use in single shelf configuration. There
is a shelf called Switching shelf for multi-shelf configuration, it is not presented here.

4.2. 7670 RSP SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
4.2.1 SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE DESCRIPTION
The 7670 RSP is a standards-based platform designed for use in the backbone of the
next-generation network. You can use the 7670 RSP in a single-shelf architecture or
multi-shelf architecture. The multi-shelf architecture consists of a control shelf,
Switching shelves, and Peripheral shelves.

The 7670 RSP contains system cards, line cards and I/O cards. System cards control
and manage the switch. Line cards process network traffic. I/O cards provide the
interface between the network and the line cards. The 7670 RSP provides 56.32 Gbps
switching capacity, it can support up to 14 Universal Card Slot (UCS) cards per shelf
and each slot has a capacity: up to OC48c (approx. 3.52G per slot including
overhead)
NETWORK MANAGEMENT
The 7670 RSP can be managed through SNMP, the CLI, and through the industry-
leading 5620 Network Manager. With the 5620 Network Manager, the 7670 RSP
inherits the power of a suite of applications for end-to-end connection management,
network data collection, and service management.

REDUNDANCY
All switch components are fully redundant, including control, fabric, power, cooling,
management interfaces, and line interfaces. Each redundant component can be
replaced without any impact to service.
TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
The 7670 RSP employs rigorous traffic management processes to ensure maximum
switch efficiency and bandwidth use. All ATM service categories are supported by the
following traffic management features:
per-VC queueing and scheduling using WFQ
per-VC shaping for all service categories
VPA Shaping
intelligent buffer management with frame discard
explicit rate and VS/VD support for ABR
Supports 500K P2P (PVCs+SVCs+ SPVCs) connections
Supports 800 P2MP root endpoints per system
Supports 3000 calls/sec sustained per node
8 User service categories CBR,rtVBR1,2, nrtVBR1,2,3, ABR and UBR

IP FUNCTIONALITY
The 7670 RSP has IP functionality, including:
IP forwarding
IP routing
MPLS
Layer 3 VPNs (RFC 4364, formerly known as RFC 2547)
Layer 2 VPNs
IP multicast
IP version 6 (IPv6)

Figure 4.2-1: 7670 RSP system architecture

4.2.2 SWITCHING ELEMENT
The heart of the system is based on two switching cards (If only one present, alarms
are raised). These switch cards are connected to all line cards by point-to-point lines.
Main characteristics are :
56.32 Gbps of aggregate bandwidth
3.52Gbps of bandwidth to all 14 line card slots
3.52Gbps of bandwidth to both control cards slots
Non-blocking, self-routing single stage switch core

4.2.3 SYSTEM SYNCHRONISATION UNIT (SSU)
The SSU is a clocking module installed on the control card. It receives timing signals
from either external reference sources connected to ports A or B of the Facilities Card
(FAC) or from a port on any of the line cards.

The SSU uses the timing signals to provide the following synchronization and timing
functions:
synchronisation of all interface cards to common timing source
software-controlled selection and prioritization of timing sources
stratum 3 holdover capability, if the timing sources become faulty
free run to stratum 3 tolerances, if the SSU cannot enter holdover mode

The SSU can use six synchronization sources numbered 1 6 in decreasing order of
priority:
sources 1 4 can derive timing from either the external A or B ports of the
FAC card, or any optical port on any interface card
source 5 corresponds to the holdover mode
source 6 corresponds to free-run

SSU OPERATION
The SSU locks to source number 1, if possible.
If a source is faulty, it locks to the next source number until it reaches 5.
(holdover)
If there is no holdover value, it locks to source number 6.

The SSU can operate in two modes: revertive and non-revertive.

In non-revertive mode:
If a higher priority source becomes available while the SSU-2 is locked to
sources 2, 3 or 4, it remains on the lower priority source.
If a higher priority source becomes available while the SSU-2 is locked to 5 or
6, it locks to the higher priority source.

In revertive mode:
If a higher priority source becomes available while the SSU-2 is locked to a
lower priority source it reverts to the higher priority source.

4.2.4 REDUNDANCY SWITCH FABRIC
Switching fabric redundancy ensures that traffic between line cards is uninterrupted if
a fabric failure occurs. The line card transmits the incoming data to both Fabric X and
Fabric Y. The line card only accepts outgoing traffic from the active switching fabric.
The same error checks, diagnostics, monitoring, and statistics are performed on both
the active and inactive fabric.

Figure 4.2-3: 7670 RSP switching fabric redundancy application

4.3.4 I/O CARDS
The I/O cards are inserted in half-height slots located in the rear of the shelf, behind
each line card. Depending on the type of line card installed, and the desired number of
I/O ports required, one or two I/O cards will be required.
Figure 4.3-7: 7670 RSP shelf I/O slots side

Only part of the global offer is presented here. Those are the main cards that will be
used for UMTS project. For other cards with higher capacity please refer to
[EXT_NTP_002].

The 7670 RSP supports optical OCn and STMn I/O cards with the following ranges:
SR
These cards are designed for short-reach applications using 62.5/125 m
(core/cladding diameter) optic cables less than 2 km (1.3 mi) in length (for OC3/STM1
I/O cards) or less than 500 m (0.3 mi) (for OC12/STM4 and OC48/STM16 I/O cards).
Most SR cards use MMF cables because they are based on LED optical technology.
The only SR card that uses SMF cables is the 1-port OC48c/STM16 ATM I/O card.
IR
These cards are designed for intermediate-reach applications using optic cables up to
15 km (9.32 mi) in length. All IR cards use SMF cables because they use laser optical
technology.
LR
These cards are designed for long-reach applications using optic cables up to 40 km
(24.85 mi) in length. All LR cards use SMF cables because they use laser optical
technology.
XLR
These cards are designed for extra long-reach applications using optic cables up to
110 km (68.35 mi) in length. All XLR cards use SMF cables because they use laser
optical technology.

8-PORT OC3C/STM1 I/O CARD
The 8-port OC3c/STM1 I/O card terminates eight physical OC3/STM1 interfaces. You
can associate up to two 8-port OC3c/STM1 I/O cards with one Multi-Rate 16 ATM line
card.
The 8-port OC3c/STM1 I/O card types are:
SR
IR
LR
XLR
The system maintains connections when you replace an I/O card with a card of a
different range. If you do this, the lasers are turned off until you change the configured
card type to match the installed card type. For example, you can replace an 8-port
OC3c/STM1 IR card with an 8-port OC3c/STM1 LR card without affecting
connections.
You connect the ports with SC-duplex connectors.

8-PORT OC3/STM1 I/O CARD
For use with the MR48 and ESC line cards, the 8-port OC3/STM1 I/O card terminates
eight physical OC3/STM1 optical interfaces. The I/O card terminates both ATM (cell
relay) and IP/POS (PPP) protocol channels. On the ESC, only cell relay protocol
channels are supported. Each port on the I/O card can terminate one channel at the
OC3/STM1 data rate of 155.52 Mb/s. For the ESC, each OC3/STM1 port supports up
to 84 DS1 or 63 E1 channels.
There are three types of the 8-port OC3/STM1 I/O card:
SR
IR
LR
One MR48 line card supports two 8-port OC3/STM1 I/O cards. One ESC supports one
8-port OC3/STM1 I/O card.
You connect the ports with LC-duplex connectors.

8-PORT STM1 ELECTRICAL I/O CARD
The 8-port STM1 Electrical I/O card has eight electrical interfaces. Each interface has
two coaxial cables: one for transmitting signals and one for receiving signals. This
card can only be used with the Multi-Rate 16 ATM line card. You connect the ports
with SMZ connectors.
Caution The I/O cables for the 8-port STM1 Electrical I/O card must be double-
shielded coaxial cable to maintain EMC compliance to Class B.

8-PORT STM1 ELECTRICAL MR48 I/O CARD
The 8-port STM1 Electrical MR48 I/O card terminates eight physical STM1 electrical
interfaces. This card can only be used with the MR48 and ESC line cards. One MR48
line card supports two 8-port STM1 Electrical MR48 I/O cards. One ESC line card
supports one 8-port STM1 Electrical MR48 I/O card.
The electrical interface on this card provides 155 520 kb/s data rates over two coaxial
cables (one for transmitting signals and one for receiving signals). All eight interfaces
on the I/O card are the same type.
You connect the ports with SMZ connectors.
Caution The I/O cables for the 8-port STM1 Electrical MR48 I/O card must be
double-shielded coaxial cable to maintain EMC compliance to Class B.

4-PORT OC12/STM4 CHANNELIZED I/O CARD
For use with the channelized MR48 and ESC line cards, the 4-port OC12/STM4
Channelized I/O card terminates four physical OC12/STM4 interfaces. The
OC12/STM4 interfaces on the I/O card transmit and receive optical SONET signals at
a full 622 Mb/s. This speed is an aggregation, with the total sum being the
OC12/STM4 rate
When used with the MR48 line card, the 4-port OC12/STM4 Channelized I/O card
supports both ATM (cell relay) and IP/POS (PPP) protocol channels. When used with
the ESC, the 4-port OC12/STM4 Channelized I/O card supports ATM (cell relay) and
UDT protocol channels.
There are three types of the 4-port OC12/STM4 Channelized I/O card:
SR
IR
LR
Each of the MR48 and ESC line cards support one 4-port OC12/STM4 Channelized
I/O card.
You connect the ports with SC-duplex connectors.

Rule: 7670 RSP OC12/STM4 I/O Card capacity restriction (M)
All four ports are available for use on the MR48 line card. Only ports 1 and 2 are
available for use on the ESC. The ESC disables the lasers and LEDs for ports 3 and
4.
You can install the 4-port OC12/STM4 Channelized I/O card in I/O slot 1 only. The I/O
card can be physically placed in I/O slot 2, but you cannot configure the card in that
slot.
Rule 4.3-6: 7670 RSP- OC12/STM4 I/O Card capacity restriction

Rule: 7670 RSP OC12/STM4 I/O Card Availability (M)
The OC12/STM4 channelized I/O card is supported on the ESC in versions 7.0 and
later. If a line card with an earlier version of the software is installed and an
OC12/STM4 interface is configured on the ESC, then a Revision/Feature Mismatch
alarm is generated

5. 7670 ESE TN DESCRIPTION
5.1. 7670 ESE OVERALL HARDWARE DESCRIPTION
5.1.1 7670 ESE NETWORK ELEMENT AND NODES
The 7670 ESE provides low-speed multi-service adaptation, aggregation, and
switching, supporting the reliable, cost-effective delivery of IP, Ethernet, frame relay,
ATM, and circuit emulation services. The 7670 ESE was firstly designed as an
extension of the RSP to provide edge connectivity, so the name ESE : Edge Services
Extender. The first name was 7670 RSP ESE, but now the RSP was removed as the
ESE is not only an extension.
The 7670 ESE Transport Node provides high density ATM/IMA termination, and ATM
VP/VC switching capabilties required at the RNC location.
The 7670 ESE Transport Node supports two configurations.
The first configuration allows connecting up to 320 protected T1/E1 ATM/IMA ports on
the Iub.
Maximum configuration: up to 320 T1/E1 ATM/IMA ports for Iub; increments of
32, 64, 96 ... 320.

5.1.2 SINGLE SHELF HW DESCRIPTION
The 7670 ESE is a single-shelf platform that can be front or mid-mounted in an
industry-standard 19-in. or 23-in. rack, supporting a switching capacity of 3.2 Gb/s bi-
directional.

Figure 5.1-3: 7670 ESE Single Shelf
The 7670 ESE single shelf system has a backplane design in which field-replaceable
cards are inserted in the front of the shelf.
The 7670 ESE shelf encloses the control complex, interface cards, and backplane.
The 7670 ESE shelf has 14 slots and accommodates two card sizes.
Full-height cards are 50.8 cm (20 in.) high.
Non-full-height cards are 30.5 cm (12 in.) high and are adapted to full height
with adapter cards.
The ECC cards use the first and last slots, labelled ESE CC X and ESE CC Y.
The interface cards use the other 12 slots, labelled 1 to 12. Most interface cards
require a distribution panel or MAU to connect to the system.
The backplane provides the connectors for the 7670 ESE cards.
Empty slots in the card file must be fitted with a filler plate to minimize EMI emissions
and optimize system cooling.

1:N SPARING BUS
The 7670 ESE has an integrated 1:N sparing bus that allows for 1:N redundancy of
interfaces without any shelf changes or external hardware for T1/E1 and DS3
interfaces. External protection panels are required for 1:N protection of OC3/STM1
Multi-service card interfaces.
1:N line card redundancy uses one protection card for up to five working cards.
The cards and adapter cards form a protection group. A protection card assumes
active operation if a working card fails. All connection information and configuration
settings are copied to the protection card when the switch occurs.
The following rules apply to protection groups.
All OC3/STM1 Multi-service with CR/IMA cards in a protection group must be
on the same fabric port, either fabric port 1, 2 or 5 of the ECC switching fabric
sub card.
All 32-port T1/E1 Multi-service with CR/IMA cards in a protection group must
be on the same fabric port, either fabric port 1, or 2 of the ECC switching
fabric subcard. Fabric Port 5 may not be used by the 32-port T1/E1 Multi-
service card with CR/IMA.
A working card can belong to only one protection group.
All cards in the group must be of the same type.
All cards in a protection group must be in adjacent slots, with the protection
card in the lowest numbered slot.
A protection group may not span the slot 6-slot 7 boundary.
You can configure up to six protection groups on a shelf. All configuration settings and
connections are configured on the working card, even if the protection card is active.
1:N line card redundancy provides protection against card failures, but not against
failed transmission facilities.

POWER
The power module unit consists of two replaceable power modules that accept dual
48 V DC power feeds and power returns through the terminal block, located on the
back of the shelf.

COOLING UNIT
The cooling unit provides forced-air cooling to the 7670 ESE shelf.
The cooling unit consists of a fan control board and a tray containing three fans.
The fan control board automatically controls the speed of the fans by detecting
changes in the internal air temperature. The ECC card detects when a fan is removed.
The cooling unit can be removed and replaced without interrupting power to the shelf.

EMI COVERS
The back of the 7670 ESE shelf provides two rows of twelve 64-pin telco connectors,
which are used for MAUs (Media ATTACHMENT Unit) and cables to attach to external
devices. The shelf is shipped with 12 EMI covers on the bottom row of connectors.
These covers are removed when connections are made and can be reused on an
unused connector or stored for future use.

ALARM CARD
The Alarm card provides visual alarm indications for critical, major, and minor alarms
occurring on the shelf. The card also has an ACO/LT switch.

5.1.3 7670 ESE SITE SPECIFICATION
The shelf must be located in a dry, environmentally controlled building or enclosure.
Although the shelf has been designed and tested to relevant standards of conducted
electromagnetic interference, it may be affected by strong sources of
electromagnetic radiation in the near field, such as elevators, air conditioners,
photocopiers, and facsimile machines.
The location must accommodate the planned type of installation, including interfaces,
terminals, modems, NTIs, and cabling. When mounted in a rack, the shelf requires a
19- or 23-in. rack that is properly installed and stable (for example, bolted securely to
the floor) and grounded. A minimum of 1 m (3 ft) of space should be provided in front
of and behind the rack.

than 15 days per year. This refers to a total of 360 hours per year, with short-term
periods occurring no more than 15 times per year.
(2) Pollution Degree as defined in IEC 60950-1

5.1.4 7670 ESE POWER SUPPLY AND CONSUMPTION
DC POWER DISTRIBUTION
The dc power distribution provides a maximum of 2100 W, distributing 140 W per slot
(1960 W) for the 14 slots, 125 W for the cooling unit, and 15 W for the Alarm card. For
detailed info refer to Appendixes A of [Ext_NTP_001]

INPUT VOLTAGE RANGE
All dc voltage levels are defined at the demarcation point (the input power terminal
block), which is the point between the customer-supplied power and the 7670 ESE
shelf. The shelf normally operates over the input power range of 40 to 75 V dc. The
shelf will not be damaged or cause any internal over current protection devices to
operate if voltages in the range of 0 to 40 V dc are applied for any duration. When
normal input voltage is restored, the shelf recovers automatically.

5.2. 7670 ESE SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
5.2.1 ARCHITECTURE

The 7670 ESE uses interface cards to connect to transmission equipment and user
devices. There are two types of interface cards: service adaptation cards and cell
relay cards. Service adaptation cards provide non-cell relay transport and adapt non-
cell relay traffic into cell relay traffic; cell relay cards provide cell relay transport.
Most interface cards require a distribution panel or MAU to connect to the system.
The 7670 ESE is designed for high switching capacity and redundancy. It achieves
99.999% switch availability, fulfilling service-level agreements with true carrier-grade
reliability.
Figure 5.2-1: 7670 ESE System architecture
Note : P1-1, P1-X/F, P1-8 , see Endpoint Identifier Chapter below for detailed
explanation.
5.2.2 NETWORK MANAGEMENT
The 7670 ES can be managed through SNMP, the CLI, and through the industry-
leading 5620 Network Manager. With the 5620 Network Manager, the 7670 ESE
inherits the power of a suite of applications for end-to-end connection management,
network data collection, and service management.

5.2.3 REDUNDANCY
All switch components are fully redundant, including control, fabric, power, cooling,
management interfaces, and line interfaces. Each redundant component can be
replaced without any impact to service.

5.2.4 TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
The 7670 ESE employs rigorous traffic management processes to ensure maximum
switch efficiency and bandwidth use. All ATM service categories are supported by the
following traffic management features:
per-VC queueing and scheduling using WFQ
per-VC shaping for all service categories
VPA Shaping
8 User service categories CBR,rtVBR1,2, nrtVBR1,2,3, ABR and UBR

Furthermore as the ESE was designed as an extension of the RSP, it mainly supports
same kind of traffic services as the RSP.

5.2.5 SYSTEM SYNCHRONISATION UNIT (SSU)
The SSU is a clocking module installed on the ECC card. It receives timing signals
from either external reference sources connected to ports A or B of the ECCI Card or
from a port on any of the line cards.

The SSU uses the timing signals to provide the following synchronization and timing
functions:
synchronization of all interface cards to common timing source
software-controlled selection and prioritization of timing sources
stratum 3 holdover capability, if the timing sources become faulty
free run to stratum 3 tolerances, if the SSU cannot enter holdover mode

The SSU can use six synchronization sources numbered 1 6 in decreasing order of
priority:
sources 1 4 can derive timing from either the external A or B ports of the
FAC card, or any optical port on any interface card
source 5 corresponds to the holdover mode
source 6 corresponds to free-run

SSU OPERATION
The SSU locks to source number 1, if possible.
If a source is faulty, it locks to the next source number until it reaches 5.
(holdover)
If there is no holdover value, it locks to source number 6.

The SSU can operate in two modes: revertive and non-revertive.

In non-revertive mode:
If a higher priority source becomes available while the SSU-2 is locked to
sources 2, 3 or 4, it remains on the lower priority source.
If a higher priority source becomes available while the SSU-2 is locked to 5 or
6, it locks to the higher priority source.

In revertive mode:
If a higher priority source becomes available while the SSU-2 is locked to a
lower priority source it reverts to the higher priority source.


Rule: 7670 ESE Synchronization port selection (R)
It is strongly recommended to use the OC3/STM1 port connected to the RNC for Iub
as synchronization source. As APS is configured use the two ports to secure the
synchronization.

Rule 5.2-1: 7670 ESE Synchronization port selection

5.3. 7670 ESE MODULES
5.3.1 SYSTEM CARDS
The following 7670 ESE system cards provide management and switching capability
within the single-shelf system:
ESE Control Card (ECC) equipped with OC3/STM1 Line Module
ESE Control Complex Interconnect Card (ECCI)

ESE CONTROL CARD
The ECC system card performs the switching, call processing, and control functions
for the 7670 ESE. In a redundant system, two ECC cards are required. Optionally, you
can order the ECC card with a single-port OC12/STM4 line module or a 4-port
OC3/STM1 line module to provide cell relay service from the 7670 ESE to the
network.

OC3/STM1 LINE MODULE
The OC3/STM1 line module is a 4-port UNI/NNI module that, if ordered, comes
preinstalled on the ECC card.
The module can be configured as OC3 or STM1, but not both simultaneously. All four
ports on this line module are completely independent and can be used to make point-
to-point or point-to-multipoint connections between the 7670 ESE shelf and multiple
points in a network. The OC3/STM1 line module is available in short, intermediate, or
long laser-reach variants.
Two (2) ECC cards are required, with two (2) OC3/STM1 line modules.

Rule: 7670 ESE OC3/STM1 Line Module for RNC connection (R)
This line Module is strongly recommended to give RNC side connectivity.
APS 1+1 will be activated through those two line module.

Rule 5.3-1: 7670 ESE- OC3/STM1 Line Module for RNC connection
REDUNDANCY
For 4-port OC3/STM1 line modules, 1+1 APS redundancy is set automatically when a
second ECC card equipped with the same type of line module (independent of the
reach type) is installed and configured in the shelf. This second card becomes the
protection card. For 4-port OC3/STM1 line modules, each card protection group
automatically creates a port protection group for each pair of ports. Each port
protection group can independently perform activity switches. You can configure APS
and perform APS maintenance functions on a port protection group or card protection
group. Performing APS maintenance on a card protection group applies the function to
all ports on that card.

Rule: 7670 ESE Dual Homing feature (R)
This feature, implemented from 5.1 release, allows to use all the 8 ports (4 ports by
ECC) independently. This means that ECC X can control ports on the ECC Y.
Note that the APS is switched off by default when dual homing is activated. You
have to choose between APS or (exclusive) Dual Homing.

Rule 5.3-2: 7670 ESE- Dual Homing feature

ESE CONTROL COMPLEX INTERCONNECT (ECCI)
The ECCI provides BITS inputs/outputs. Its connected to the back of the 7670 ESE
shelf. No cables are required.
There are two variants of the ECCI:
North America ECCI, with 1.544-MHz (standard T1) BITS clock inputs
International ECCI, with 2.048-MHz (standard E1) external clock inputs and
outputs

Figure 5.3-2: 7670 ESE International ECCI

5.3.2 LINE CARDS
32 PORT T1/E1 MS CARD
The 32-port T1/E1 MS card connects to T1 or E1 interfaces. Using configuration
management, you can switch the card between T1 mode and E1 mode. The card uses
AAL-1 to transport unstructured T1 or E1 circuits and n 64-kb/s channels across an
ATM network. Structured or unstructured service can be configured per port.
A T1/E1 adapter card provides electrical interfaces for a 100- T1, 120- E1, or 75-
E1 interface.
The multi-service capabilities of the card are provided by an optional, add-on CR/IMA
module. The CR/IMA module supports IMA protocol version 1.0, which complies with
ATM Forum AF-PHY-0086-000 requirements, and IMA protocol version 1.1, which
complies with ATM Forum AF-PHY-0086.001 requirements.
This module can support IMA versions 1.0 and 1.1 simultaneously on a per-port basis.
For interoperability, the far-end equipment connected to the T1/E1 MS card must
support the same standards-compliant IMA protocol as the near-end card.

Figure 5.3-3: 7670 ESE 32Port T1/E1 Multi Service Card

REDUNDANCY
The 32-port T1/E1 MS card supports 1:N line card redundancy, in which up to five
working cards of the same type form a protection group with one protection card.
If you configure 1:N line card redundancy for a 32-port T1/E1 MS card, you can
remove the interface card, but you must leave the adapter card in the shelf for
protection to continue.

Rule: 7670 ESE Group protection 32Port T1/E1 MS Card(HC)
There are two protection groups in the ESE shelf, Group 1 for slots 1 to 6 and
Group 2 for slots 7 to 12. When protection is activated slot 1 for Group 1 and slot 7
for Group 2 is reserved for the protection card, this means that no I/O port will be
useable/needed in for these two slots. Group Protection can be activated separately.

Rule 5.3-3: 7670 ESE- Group Protection 32 Port T1/E1 MS Card

CR/IMA MODULE
An optional CR/IMA module for the T1/E1 MS card supports any-service-any-circuit
deployments. The CR/IMA module provides T1 and E1 cell relay and IMA group
services through the T1/E1 MS card.
The CR/IMA module for the T1/E1 MS card lets service providers use T1 or E1 lines
for connections with bandwidth that exceeds the T1 or E1 rate. The module supports
up to 16 IMA groups.
With its CR/IMA module installed, the T1/E1 MS card transports cell relay or IMA cells
within DS1 or E1 circuits.
IMA groups provide scalable bandwidth. The bandwidth of a group is a multiple of the
number of links in that group. For example, an IMA group with four T1 links has a
bandwidth of 4 1.544 Mb/s. You can increase cell stream bandwidth beyond T1 and
E1 rates up to a maximum of 8 T1 or 8 E1 rates.
Example of a module added to the 32-port T1/E1 MS Card :

Figure 5.3-4: 7670 ESE CR/IMA module added to 32Port T1/E1 Card
DISTRIBUTION PANEL
A variety of distribution panels provide interfaces to connect external equipment to T1
and E1 interface cards on the 7670 ESE. Three distribution panel type are supported
for this card; the most common to use on site is the 16-port RJ-45 distribution panel:
16-port RJ-45 T1/E1 distribution panel : This support 120 E1 and 100 T1
8-port BNC coaxial E1 distribution panel This support 75 E1.
32-port SMZ (Type 43) distribution panel : This support 75 E1.

Example of a Distribution Panel. For more details see chapter 5 of [Ext_NTP_001].
Figure 5.3-5: 7670 ESE 16 Port RJ45 T1/E1 distributuion panel

To connect the distribution panel to the 32 Port T1/E1 MS card, a specific cable
Champ to Dual DB-78 Y cable need to be provided per distribution panel.

Rule: 7670 ESE Distribution panel for E1/T1 (R)
It is strongly recommended to use the E1/T1 distribution panel to use installation of the
E1/T1 connectivity.

Rule 5.3-4: 7670 ESE distribution panel for E1/T1

1 PORT OC3/STM1 MS CARD
The 1-Port STM1/OC3 MS card is a single-port, full-height circuit emulation card that
can be configured to support SONET or SDH connections.
For circuit emulation service, the STM1/OC3 MS card transports n 64 kb/s channels
within structured DS1 or E1 circuits, unstructured DS1 or E1 circuits, or unstructured
DS3 circuits across an ATM network that uses AAL-1.
There are four variants of the STM1/OC3 MS card. The three optical variants (SR, IR,
and LR, for short, intermediate, and long reaches, respectively) support either OC3 or
STM1. The electrical variant supports STM1 only.
The multi-service capabilities of the card are provided by an add-on CR/IMA module..

REDUNDANCY
The 1 Port STM1/OC3 MS card, with or without a CR/IMA module installed and
configured, supports 1:N redundancy.
1:N line card redundancy uses one protection card for up to five working cards. The
cards and adapter cards form a protection group. A protection card assumes active
operation if a working card fails. All connection information and configuration settings
are copied to the protection card when the switch occurs.
The following rules apply to protection groups.
All cards in a protection group must be on the same fabric port,
A working card can belong to only one protection group.
All cards in the group must be of the same type.
All cards in a protection group must be in adjacent slots, with the protection
card in the lowest numbered slot.
This 1:N redundancy will require to add the protection panel described below.
Rule: 7670 ESE Group protection 1 Port OC3/STM1 MS Card(HC)
There are two protection groups in the ESE shelf, Group 1 for slots 1 to 6 and
Group 2 for slots 7 to 12. When protection is activated slot 1 for Group 1 and slot 7
for Group 2 is reserved for the protection card, this means that no I/O port will be
useable/needed in for these two slots. Group Protection can be activated separately.
A protection panel is mandatory to activate this feature

Rule 5.3-5: 7670 ESE- Group Protection 1 Port OC3/STM1 MS Card

The 1 Port STM1/OC3 MS card, with or without a CR/IMA module installed and
configured, supports also 1+1 APS redundancy.
Rule: 7670 ESE APS 1+1 for 1 Port OC3/STM1 MS Card(HC)
In order to active the APS 1+1 protection, you need to have two identical cards in
adjacent slots.
Unidirectional switching mode cannot be configured for STM1/OC3 MS cards with
CR/IMA modules when an IMA group is configured on the card. When STM1/OC3 MS
cards with CR/IMA modules are configured for 1+1 APS redundancy with an IMA
group, they always operate in bidirectional switching mode.

Rule 5.3-6: 7670 ESE- APS 1+1 for 1 Port OC3/STM1 MS Card


CR/IMA MODULE
An optional CR/IMA module for the STM1/OC3 MS card supports any-service-any-
circuit deployments. The CR/IMA module provides T1 and E1 cell relay and IMA group
services through the STM1/OC3 MS card.
The CR/IMA module for the STM1/OC3 MS card lets service providers use T1 or E1
lines for connections with bandwidth that exceeds the T1 or E1 rate. The module
supports up to 42 IMA groups. The system multiplexes the cell streams from each
logical port (a T1 or E1 mapped from an STM1 or OC3 circuit) into an IMA group to
create a unified cell stream.
With its CR/IMA module installed, the STM1/OC3 MS card transports cell relay or IMA
cells within DS1 or E1 circuits with a total aggregate bandwidth of up to 155.52 Mb/s.
IMA groups provide scalable bandwidth. The bandwidth of a group is a multiple of the
number of links in that group. For example, an IMA group with four T1 links has a
bandwidth of 4 1.544 Mb/s. You can increase cell stream bandwidth beyond T1 and
E1 rates up to a maximum of 8 T1 or 8 E1 rates.

PROTECTION PANEL
The OC3/STM1 1:N Protection Panel (90-9785-01) enables 1:N line card redundancy
protection for STM1/OC3 MS electrical and optical interfaces. Twelve vertical card
slots on the panel are organized into two 1:N protection groups with each accepting
one protection IO (PIO) and up to five working IOs (WIOs);
Install the OC3/STM1 1:N Protection Panel in a 19-inch equipment rack. The panel
can be flush-mounted or mid-mounted in a rack.

MAU AND SFP
The Protection MAU is used to support 1:N Line Card Redundancy for STM1/OC3 MS
line cards. The Protection MAU is a mandatory component for both electrical and
optical 1:N LCR configurations. It must be used with the protection card of a protection
group. The Protection MAU connects to the 64-pin telco connector located at the back
of the shelf.

There is no specific configuration for Drop&Insert (usage of Fractional E1). There is no
need as in PP7K to have intermediate port with hairpins. This mode of operation is
supported by STM1/OC3 and T1/E1 MS cards.
CRC Frame is configurable on port basis for E1 connectivity. Note that default

5.6. 7670 ESE CAPACITY AND DIMENSIONING
5.6.1 7670 ESE CAPACITY
The single-shelf 7670 ESE can handle up to 320P E1/T1 (ATM/IMA) with 1:1
redundancy for control board and 5:1 board redundancy for line-I/O board.
The single-shelf 7670 ESE has a nonblocking 3.2GB/s switching capacity.

5.6.2 SUPPORTED CONFIGURATION
Various configurations are predefined; this helps at providing list of parts to order and
pricing. These configurations are regrouped into two types:
E1/T1 connectivity to NodeB
OC3/STM1 connectivity to NodeB
For more details please refer to the MOPG ref [Ext_SC_001].
But for most of requirement the 7670 ESE will need to be designed on case by case
basis according to port type and quantity requested.

Engineering Guidelines: 7670 ESE Configuration for VP shaping (R)
An 7670 ESE configuration . with no additional line card (only the 4 port STM1
daughter board on the ECC) can be used to perform the VP shaping on the Iub
at RNC interface
Justification:
For swap purpose, as the VP shaping on the RNC1500 is not iso funtional with ex-
Alcatel RNC, you will have to add a 7670 ESE to perform the VPA shaping. This
configuration allow to connect up to 2 IubSTM1 with APS 1+1 protection.

6.1. 5620 NM EQUIPEMENT AND FUNCTION
Refer to 5620 PEI
6.2. MANAGING THE NODE USING CPSS

Rule: 7670 TN OAM Management (M)
The management of the 7670 TN is done only by the 5620NM. There is no integration
in the W-NMS.
The dialogue between the 7670 TN and the 5620 NM is based on the CPSS
architecture, even if there is only one 7670 equipment.

Rule 6.2-1: 7670 TN OAM Management

6.2.1 CPSS OVERVIEW
CPSS messages carry the following types of information:
control information that allows the network management system to send
commands to the nodes
statistical information that allows the network management system to gather
performance information
alarm information that enables the network management system to gather
diagnostic information
configuration status information from the nodes
CPSS MESSAGES
CPSS messages can travel out-of-band via IP connectivity between the 5620NM and
the node or in-band over frame relay or cell relay PVCs, or E1 CE ports between the
nodes and the 5620 NM.
The frame relay PVC connects one node to another node, which connects to the
network management system through a cell relay or Ethernet connection.
The cell relay PVC connects directly to the network management system, or to a cell
relay link from another node, which connects to the network management system
through a cell relay or Ethernet connection.
E1 CE ports provide the means of transporting 16 kb/s CPSS frames in-band to far-
end TDM equipment. The 5620 NM uses CPSS frames to control network equipment,
shown in Figure 73-1.
Figure 6.2-1: CPSS in-band network topology

Figure above shows the 5620 NM generating CPSS data over selected timeslots of
the SPRITE card E1 interface. The 3600 MainStreet node, situated between the
SPRITE card and the E1 CE port on the 7670 ESE, is configured to carry 16 kb/s of
CPSS data over the E1 timeslots. Data from the 3600 MainStreet node to the 7670
ESE is transmitted over the two least significant bits in the octet of the timeslots. ATM
VCs cross-connected to the timeslots carry the data over the network. At the far end of
the network, each VC is cross-connected to a channel group configured to carry TS0
of an E1 CE port. The two least significant bits received from each octet are buffered
in the E1 CE until four bits are received and they are transmitted on the next E1 frame.
This completes the link to the far-end equipment. The operation is reversed in the
opposite direction.
You can use equipment other than the 3600 MainStreet node to transmit CPSS data
between the ATM network and the 5620 NM. The equipment must be capable of
transmitting 16 kb/s CPSS over E1 timeslots using the two least significant bits in each
octet to transmit the data.
CPSS GATEWAY LINKS
CPSS messages travel between the active and standby 5620 NetworkStations, and
each system through in-band or out-of-band CPSS gateway links. In-band CPSS
gateway links are cell relay links. The active and standby 5620 NetworkStations need
cell relay NICs to attach to a cell relay network in-band. Out-of-band gateway CPSS
links are Ethernet links connected to the system ECCI, which physically connects to
the same Ethernet LAN or extended LAN as the active and standby NetworkStations.
See Figure below.
You can collocate one or more Delegate NetworkStations on the same Ethernet LAN
or extended LAN as the active and standby NetworkStations. The Delegate
NetworkStations do not contain a database, but do provide additional user interfaces.

Figure 6.2-2: CPSS network topology
CPSS NODE TYPES
There are three types of CPSS nodes:
stub node
routing node
leaf node
A stub node is a 7670 ESE that terminates or originates CPSS traffic; stub nodes do
not route CPSS traffic. Use stub nodes as feeders at the edge of the network to
increase the fanout capability of the in-band CPSS link.
A routing node is a 7670 ESE that can route CPSS traffic. A gateway is a routing node
that handles CPSS communications between the network management system and a
CPSS domain.
A leaf node consists of a separate access device that can be configured as an
additional node to a stub node or router node on a 7670 ESE. For more information
about configuring a leaf node, refer to the 5620 NM documentation.
CPSS ADDRESSES
You must assign each node a unique address within the CPSS network. The CPSS
address consists of two parts: a domain number and a node number.
CPSS DOMAINS
You can reduce CPSS routing complexity and improve CPSS performance, scalability
and reliability by organizing nodes into groups called domains. You can create up to
60 domains; each domain can have up to 250 nodes. All 250 nodes can be routing
nodes.
Each routing node in the domain knows the CPSS topology of its own domain only.
Each gateway router also knows about the network management domain. For CPSS
traffic, each stub node is aware of only the node or nodes to which it has an active
CPSS connection.
Each domain must have at least one routing node (the gateway) that connects to one
or more network management systems through Ethernet links or cell relay links, or
through both Ethernet and cell relay links.
To create a gateway, configure the node type as routing node and configure the CPSS
links with the network management systems as net-mgr. See the 5620 NM
documentation for more information about CPSS requirements.
For fault tolerance, set up your network so that there is more than one gateway in
each domain, and so that each node has CPSS links to at least two other nodes.
Within a domain, nodes use frame relay or cell relay links to carry CPSS traffic
between nodes. Each node in the domain must have a direct physical link to at least
one other node in the domain. Although physical links can exist between nodes in
different domains with customer traffic routed over them, do not configure CPSS links
to nodes that are not in the same domain.
You assign a node to a domain by configuring a domain number for the node; you
must also configure the node with a CPSS node number that is unique within the
domain.
CPSS LINKS AND PATHS
Table below lists the valid connections between the types of CPSS nodes. The nodes
must be in the same domain. Note that a routing node that serves as a gateway also
connects to the network management system.
Table 6.2-1: Valid connections for CPSS

When you connect a routing node to more than one other routing node, the node
transmits and receives CPSS traffic based on the lowest end-to-end path cost
between the source and destination nodes.
When you connect a stub node to more than one routing node that connects to the
active 5620 NetworkStation, the stub node can use different links for transmitting and
receiving CPSS traffic. The stub node transmits CPSS traffic over the link with the
lowest configured CPSS path cost. When the lowest path cost is the same for two or
more CPSS links, the stub node transmits over the lowest cost link that connects to
the node with the lowest node number. If the gateway or routing node loses
connectivity with the active 5620 NetworkStation, the stub node uses the same criteria
to select a link to another connected gateway or routing node. A stub node connected
to more than one gateway or routing node receives CPSS traffic from the gateway or
routing node based on the lowest end-to-end path cost of reaching the stub node.
Configure CPSS links between nodes that are in the same domain, and between the
gateway nodes and the active and standby 5620 NetworkStation. A routing node
supports five CPSS links from the node to the active and standby NetworkStations,
router network stations, or statistics collectors within the same domain; a routing node
supports up to 15 CPSS links to other routing nodes and up to 60 CPSS links to stub
nodes.
You can configure more than one CPSS link between two adjacent nodes. The CPSS
links can use the same port or different ports. Only one of the CPSS links between two
nodes is active; the inactive links have a status of parallel link and do not carry CPSS
traffic. The active link is the first link to establish communications between the two
nodes. If the active link develops a fault, its status changes to down and the first
parallel link to establish communications between the two nodes becomes the active
link.
You can configure the sustained and peak rate for gateway CPSS connections over
ATM from a minimum of 100 kb/s up to the line rate.
CONFIGURATION PARAMETERS
CPSS DOMAIN NUMBER
The CPSS domain number must be in the range 1 to 60; the default is 1.
Routing node Stub node Leaf node
Routing
Stub
Leaf
Node type at one end of CPSS link Node type at other end of CPSS link
CPSS NODE NUMBER
The CPSS node number must be in the range 1 to 254 and must be unique within the
domain. The screen shows the default as Unassigned.
CPSS CLASS A ADDRESS
The CPSS class A address must be in the range 1 to 126; the default is 10. The
system assigns the default CPSS class A address automatically; you do not need to
configure it. If you change the class A address, it must be different from the IP address
for the node and the in-band IP address (if configured), and must not be an address
used by another company. All elements in the same network, including a 5620 NM
must have the same CPSS class A network address.
CPSS NODE TYPE
When you change the node type, the CPSS links restart; which causes a temporary
disruption in CPSS traffic.
By default, the 7670 ESE node type is configured as a stub node. For this node
configuration, in-band CPSS connections may only occupy a maximum bandwidth of
64 kb/s. This value is nonconfigurable.
You can configure bandwidth for in-band CPSS connections on a routing node. See
REF xxxx technical pratices.

6.2.2 CONVERTING CPSS TO IP:
This formula will not be of much use to most of us as the /opt/netmgt/install/ipcvt tool
will do this calculation for you. I needed to figure this out to use with a different
application that does not have access to the ipcvt tool so I though I'd add it here to
save time for anyone having to figure this out again.
Note: the ipcvt tool does not do the calculation the same way as my formula. As well,
this formula does not calculate the IP address for minor nodes(Ex. FRE cards).
However, for those of you who might need a formula to do this in the future here it is.
The first thing we need to know is the format for an IP address. It is made up of four
fields separated by periods or "dots" as they are commonly referred to. Example:
"138.120.136.228" For the purposes of my formula we will break the format of the IP
address into four distinct variables as follows: A.B.C.D
The second thing we need to know is the nodes CPSS address. It is made up of two
fields separated by periods or "dots" the same way each field of an IP address is
separated. Example: "20.972" For this formula we will break the format into two
distinct variables as follows: X.Y
X = Domain number.
Y = Major node number.
A = the ClassANetAddress. By default the 5620 uses "10" which is why we
occasionally hear people referring to a nodes "10 dot address."
B = ( X * 4 ) + INT ( Y / 64 )
C = (Y - (INT ( Y / 64 ) * 64 )) * 4 + 3
D = this is a constant which always equals 253.
As an example the CPSS address of 20.972 will provide the nodes "10 dot address" of
"10.95.51.253"

6.3. W-NMS EVOLUTION
Feature OAMx.x 33882 for FM in W-NMS is under discussion and will be
implemented.

7. 7670 TN ENGINEERING RULES
7.1. 7670 DIMENSIONING
Dimensioning of the 7670 TN (RSP or ESE) is done in 3 steps.
First, list all equipments that need to be connected through the transport node.
This will lead to the exhaustive list of the interfaces that need to be managed
and their definition (type, length, connection specificity and quantity).
Second, this is the HW selection step: ESE or RSP. Then list the cards
requested (type, quantity.
Third, we need to check at the end that there is no engineering limit over
passed.

Engineering Guidelines: 7670 RSP/ESE Dimensioning approach (R)
Dimensioning of the 7670 TN (RSP/ESE) is mainly counting interfaces in/out and
defining clearly the type of these interfaces and features that need to be
supported.
Justification:
In our case, we are not designing a backbone but just interconnecting two equipment
in a point-to-point mode. The processing and datafill capacity is not a limiting factor for
our usage of the 7670. The interface dimensioning is done at the other equipment that
you need to inter-connect, in our case it is mainly done at RNC level.
The important point is the type of interface that is required ( STM1 Chanelized or not
chanelized, E1,) and the feature that are required (IMA or not IMA, APS 1+1,
redundancy 1:N,)
Guideline 7.1-1: 7670 RSP/ESE Dimensioning approach

7.1.1 STATUS OF INTERFACE TO BE MANAGED
You must define a local area, list of equipment that need to be interconnected. This is
mainly the UTRAN (list of NodeBs and RNCs) but other equipment may be added as
Core Network. Note that you can have multiple RNCs in a local area.
You need then to define where all these equipments are located. Are they in the same
room ? if not what is the distance between them ? And you need to define how they
are interconnected. These are the questions to answer :
Type of connections : E1, T1, STM1, STM1 channelized,..
Do we have IMA? Note that IMA is mandatory on Iub to carry HSDPA traffic.
Do we have APS? Note that APS is mandatory for Iub on RNC.
Specification of the connection : Optical, electrical, length, type of connector,
Quantity by type.

Please refer to various TEG (Transport Engineering Guide) to finalise this list.

7.1.2 HW SELECTION
First of all you must select the type of shelf : RSP or ESE by using the table below.
Table 7.1-1: HW selection
Note (1) these boards are not presented in this document. Please refer to
[Ext_NTP_002]

Some type of interface can be handled by both RSP and ESE, so decision will be
done on the quantity to be managed. The RSP has a higher capacity than the ESE.
Switching Capacity Number of STM1 Ports
7670 RSP shelf 50 Gbit/s 224
(or 112 with APS 1+1)
7670 ESE Shelf 3,2 Gbits/s 20 (1)
(or 10 with APS 1+1)

Table 7.1-2: HW type capacity
Note (1) With ECC line module and Dual Homing feature.
Then to determine the number of board needed, please see each board definition in
previous chapter and see how many ports each board can handle. Do not forget to
take into account the APS functionality.

OC3/STM1

Gigabit Ethernet (1)
7.1.3 CAPACITY CHECK
Use the following tables to validate the number of board

Table 7.1-3: 7670 ESE Board capacity

Table 7.1-4: 7670 RSP Board capacity

Engineering Guidelines: 7670 RSP/ESE HW Selection (R)
HW selection between RSP and ESE is not only done on interface availability. It
is strongly dependant of the capacity needed.
Justification:
When there is more than 320E1 and more than 8 STM1(or 4 STM1 with APS 1+1)
interface reqired,. instead of having multiple ESE, you can have one RSP with STM1
and add external equipment, as the PSAX, or equivalent, to do the STM1 to E1
conversion.
When a lot of interfaces need to be managed, special attention must be required as it
is nearly a little backbone that needs to be designed.

7.1.4 DIMENSIONING EXAMPLE
The aim is to dimension a TN to interconnect a RNC to 50 nodeB and a Core network
(CS and PS).
The RNC is with the 7670 TN (in the same room), is connected to 50 NodeB with 2 E1
by NodeB.and is connected to Iu CS and PS by one STM1.
One group of 25 NodeB are connected directly by E1 120
The second group of 25 NodeBs is connected through a backbone and final
connection to the RNC room is with Chanelized STM1. APS 1+1 is requested for the
backbone connection.
Note that it is an example and normally all interface dimensioning (Iub, Iu and Iur)
must be done using relevant tools as it is strongly dependant of the Traffic model and
the number of subscriber.

Figure 7.1-1: Network topology for dimensioning example

STEP1 LIST OF INTERFACE
Iub interface on NodeB side. The need is :
50 E1s with IMA, 120
2 OC3/STM1 channelized : 50 E1 can be carried by 1 OC3/STM1 and need 2
due to APS (distance less than 15 km type SMF)
IuB, IuR Iu interface on RNC side :
IuB : 2 STM1 (APS)
Iu : 2 STM1 ( suppose Iu CS & Iu PS on same link, APS)

STEP2 : HW SELECTION
As we need E1 connectivity, we must select the 7670 ESE.
List of boards :
2 * 32-port T1/E1 MS card with IMA module to handle 50 E1
2* 1-Port STM1/OC3 MS (1 card handle 63 E1, twice for APS)
2 *4-Port OC3/STM1 module on the ECC board to handle the 6 (3+3) OC3
STM1 note these module cannot support channelized E1.

Note 1: a third 32 port T1/E1 board will be added to ensure line processing board
redundancy.
Note 2: the E1 panel distribution will be added. As it supports 16 ports, 4 items will be
needed.
STEP 3 : CAPACITY CHECK
Only 5 slots over 12 will be used so there is no issue.
Bandwidth limitation need to be check, basically it is the sum of traffic incoming and
outgoing from the RNC.

CARD LOCALISATION IN THE SHELF :
Due to redundancy 1:N for 32ports T1/E1 line cards, we will reserve the 6 first slots for
E1 connectivity:
Slot 1 for Protection cards
Slot 2 & 3 for Active Cards
Slot 4 to 6 for future expansion.

OC3/STM1 cards will be in slots 11 & 12.
This will allow room for additional E1 extension if it requires more than 3 more
E1 cards; we will be able to add E1 cards from slot 7 to 10 and E1 cards
added in the second protection group must have the protection card in slot 7.

The CIQ tableau should looks like this table :

8.2.1 VPA SHAPING
Virtual Path Aggregation shaping
VPA shaping is a commissioning capability that aggregates the traffic of multiple
VCCs terminating on the same VPI, and shapes the aggregated traffic on the egress
port of a node to a particular VPC traffic descriptor, rather than shaping individual
VCCs to their own traffic descriptors.
