STM-1 / OC-3
- The NPS1 or NPS1P functional unit offers ATM over SDH/Sonet interfaces
The NPS1P offers MSP 1+1 and APS 1+1 protection
- Plug in unit type is NP8S1-B for both NPS1 and NPS1P
- Each plug in unit contains 8 x SDH STM-1/Sonet OC-3 optical interfaces
Gigabit Ethernet
- The NPGE or NPGEP functional unit offers IP over Ethernet interfaces
The NPGEP supports 2N redundancy
- Plug in unit type is NP2GE for both NPGE and NPGEP
Power to the RNC2600 is protected by a duplicated power supply feed from the rectifier/s
and Battery/ies
At cabinet level the duplicated power is distributed via MCBs to each sub rack in the
same cabinet
At sub rack level each duplicated power feed is received by the PD30 unit that
distributes 4 duplicated 5A power feed lines to the plug in units via the backplanes

Types of alarms:
Severity of the Alarm
Severity of Alarm
Notice Alarms
These alarms only inform about an event giving information about the situation in the Network
Element. For example the user is informed of a unit state change by a notice.
Disturbance Alarms
Disturbance alarms are used for informing about temporary disturbance situations that means
informing about a short failure event that does not have any permanent effect on service.
Minor Alarms
Minor alarms ( one star alarms) give information to help the operator to decide that measures
should be taken to remove the alarm.
Major Alarms
Major alarms ( two stars alarms) dont threaten the operation of the system; the fault
requires operator action during normal working hours.
Critical Alarms
