2 Features
Tip:
For more information about NR8250 features, refer to the ZXMW NR8250 Feature
Description manual.
2.1 Hybrid & Native Microwave Transmission

Solution
The hybrid & native concept is introduced in NR8250 microwave radio transmission
solution. Native refers to the advanced native transmission technology while Hybrid
refers to the hybrid transmission without mapping. In the Hybrid & Native solution, native
TDM traffic and Ethernet traffic can share air interface bandwidth dynamically while
neither traffic type is mapped over the other.
The advantages of this feature are as follows:

Low link latency, improving transmission efficiency
Avoid unnecessary frame encapsulation overhead, maximizing radio bandwidth
utilization
Reduce spectrum resource, enable operator to utilize the limited microwave
spectrum resource more effectively
2.2 Service Cross Connect Function

The NR8250 supports TDM cross connect function from E1 to STM-1 and from STM-1 to
E1. The maximum cross connect capacity is 3200E1*3200E1. Meantime it also supports
Ethernet cross connect function with maximum capacity of 10 GB.
2.3 Six-Directions Aggregation Node

As an aggregation node, the NR8250 supports maximum of six transmission directions.
The built-in MUX can support the nodal function of service switching without external
wiring at an aggregation site.

2.4 ACM Adaptive Coding & Modulation

(ACM) refers to the technology of automatic coding and modulation scheme adjustment
based on channel quality. ACM can improve transmission efficiency and spectrum
utilization as well as protect the service reliability with high priority level during poor
channel quality
2.5 Ethernet Switching

The NR8250 supports the following Ethernet switching technologies:
Provides 10/100/1000 Mbps self adaptive interface, supporting automatic
negotiation function and automatic transmission rate adjustment
Supports auto MDI/MDIX function for all Ethernet interfaces
Supports Ethernet bandwidth utilization statistics and remote monitoring
Supports 8k Media Access Control (MAC) addresses
Supports 4k VLANs complying with IEEE 802.1q standard
Supports jumbo frame size of 1522 bytes
Table 2-1 shows the Ethernet protocols supported by the NR8250.
Table 2-1 Ethernet Protocols

Protocol Description
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) can be used in resolving
network looping, where, through certain algorithms, some
IEEE 802.1d STP redundant paths are blocked and the ring network is adapted
into a tree network without any loop. This prevents packets
from proliferating and infinite recycling in the loop network.
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is developed on the
IEEE 802.1w RSTP
basis of IEEE 802.1d STP.
IEEE 802.3x Frame traffic control protocol in full-duplex mode
A collection of IEEE standards produced in defining the
physical layer and data link layer's MAC of wired Ethernet. It
is a local area network technology with some wide area
IEEE Std 802.3
network applications. Physical connections are made
between nodes and/or infrastructure devices (hubs,
switches, routers) by various types of copper or fiber cable.
Virtual Bridged Local Area Networks (VBLAN) specifies the
IEEE 802.1q VLAN
implementations of VLAN.

2.6 QoS Quality of Service

QoS is a security mechanism of the network to resolve network delay and congestion
problems. In case of network overload or congestion, QoS ensures important traffics are
not delayed or discarded; meanwhile, it guarantees the efficient network operation
2.7 SNCP Protection for TDM

The NR8250 supports Sub Network Connection Protection (SNCP) for TDM services,
which improves the microwave radio link transmission reliability.
The flexible SNCP configuration can be applied in various networks such as
backbone network, relay network, and access network in different topologies such
as tree, ring, and mesh.
The protection structure uses 1+1 mode and the principle is dual transmitting and
selective receiving.
Support air interface mode SNCP protection for E1 switchover protection.
2.8 RSTP/STP
The NR8250 supports Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Spanning Tree
Protocol (STP). RSTP is defined by IEEE802.1w and STP is defined by IEEE802.1d.
STP
It can be used in resolving network looping, where, through certain algorithms,

some redundant paths are blocked and the ring network is adapted into a tree
network without any loop. This prevents broadcast storm in network looping.
RSTP
It is developed on the basis of STP and provides faster convergence speed when
the network structure changes. Compared with STP, RSTP adds two port types:
alternate port and backup port.
RSTP has the following advantages to provide faster convergence speed than STP:
In STP, port state and port role are not clearly differentiated, and the
convergence mainly depends on the switchover of port state. In RSTP, port
state and port role are clearly differentiated, and the convergence mainly
depends on the switchover of port role.
The switchover of STP port states must passively wait for timeout. The
switchover of RSTP port states is an active negotiation.

The non-root bridge in STP can only passively relay Bridge Protocol Data
Unit (BPDU). The non-root bridge in RSTP can actively send BPDU to
maintain the link to downstream nodes.
Tip:
For information about RSTP configuration principle, refer to chapter 7.6 RSTP Ring
Network.
2.9 ATPC Automatic Transmitter Power Control

The NR8250 supports ATPC function.

1+1 Frequency Diversity (FD) provides frequency diversity hot standby protection.
NR8250 supports 1+1 FD, 2 x (1+1 FD), and 3 x (1+1 FD).
In 1+1 FD protection mode, service can be sent and received through two different
frequency points on the same link, which provides full-time hot standby protection for the
equipment. This mode reduces link attenuation caused by multi-path reflection and
improves link stability.

7.5 SNCP Ring Networking

NR8250 supports Sub Network Connection Protection (SNCP). In SNCP configuration, a
special protection route is arranged in advance for a certain subnet connection. Once
the subnet fails, the special protection route takes place of the subnet and transmits
services for the whole network. SNCP ring network can protect the services transmitted
on the microwave link.
Tip:
SNCP can be configured only in transparent transmission mode.
The configuration of a single site is as shown in Table 7-6 .

SNC End
Source
Subnet 2
Protection SNC
Detailed description of the SNCP networking is as follows:
The protection path at each transmission direction uses different routes with the
working path (only one signal direction is marked in the figure).
Node A and Node B exchange services through SNCP. That is, Node A transfers
services in bridge mode to Node B through subnet 1 (working SNC) and subnet 2
(protection SNC) respectively.

Node B selects the service information from one route by using a changeover
switch based on the changeover principle.
SNCP adopts the working mode of two-route transmission and selective reception.
7.6 RSTP Ring Networking

NR8250 supports Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) ring protection, which protects
services through ring network.
When RSTP ring network is used, the configuration of a single end is as shown in Table
7-7 .

Block
Site B
Service A Service A
Site A Site D
Site C
Generally, the link between site B and site D is blocked and no service is
transmitted. In this case, the transmission path of service A is site A-C-D.
If either the link between site A and site C or the link between site C and site D fails,
the link between site B and site D is unblocked. In this case the transmission path
of service A is site A-B-D.

7.7 Nodal Networking

NR8250 supports the hybrid configuration of 1+0/1+1 HSB, SD, and FD and supports
six directions at most. This networking mode is called Nodal networking.
Tip:
The following is about 2 x (1+0) + 2 x (1+1 HSB) Nodal networking.
In 2 x (1+0) + 2 x (1+1 HSB) networking mode, the configuration of a single end is as

shown in Table 7-8 .
