Maintenance Manual
Typical BG-30 Installation

For a typical installation of a BG-30 shelf in an ECI Telecom ETSI rack, see
the following figure. In this figure, four BG-30B shelves are shown.
In addition to the BG-30B itself, the equipment installed in the rack can
include:
 One RAP installed at the top of the rack. The RAP is used to connect
external power and alarm monitoring lines (RAP-100 only) to the BG-30B
shelves installed in the rack. The RAP fully supports up to four shelves
with dual power feeding. In addition to the space needed for RAP
installation, you must leave at least 50 mm of free space under the RAP for
cable routing.
NOTE: The RAP-BG does not support alarm monitoring

lines.
 Fiber Storage Tray. A separate FST can be installed for each BG-30 with
optical modules. Each FST contains two storage reels, enabling the fiber to
be stored on the right or left side of the tray. Leave at least 50 mm of free
space between the BG-30 shelf and its FST, and another 50 mm free
between the FST and the next BG-30 shelf.
 xDDF-21. When unbalanced E1 interfaces are needed, the xDDF-21 should
be installed with the BG-30. Each xDDF-21 can support 21 channels of E1.
The xDDF-21 can be installed anywhere on the same rack on which the
BG-30 shelf is installed, or on another rack.
 ICP_MCP30. When an RS-232 or V.11 interface from the MCP30 is used,
the ICP_MPC30 should be installed to distribute the concentrated Auxiliary
connector into dedicated connectors for each function. The ICP_MCP30
can be installed anywhere on the same rack on which the BG-30 shelf is
installed.

Maintenance Manual
Integrating BG-30 Shelves and Other

Equipment in One Rack
BG-30 shelves and associated accessories may not occupy the entire rack.

Maintenance Manual
Preparing Cables and Fibers

NOTE: This section provides information needed for
preparing and optical fibers. The necessary cables can be
ordered from ECI Telecom. For details, contact ECI
Telecom’s Customer Support team or your ECI Telecom sales
representative.
Before you start:

The following main types of cables are required for installing the BG-30:
 Grounding cables (on page 2-11)
 DC power cables (RAP Input Power Cables (on page 2-11) and Shelf
Power Cables (on page 2-12))
 Alarm cables (on page 2-12)
 Management cables (on page 2-13)
 Timing (clock) cables (on page 2-13)
 Optical fibers (on page 2-14)
 Electric traffic cables (on page 2-13)
Some of these cables are supplied by ECI Telecom as part of the BG-30
equipment, while others must be prepared on site or ordered separately from
ECI Telecom.
In the following sections, you will find information about the cables, as well as
information to enable the preparation of cables on site, where relevant. For
further details about the equipment connector types and cable wiring, see
Connection Data (on page A-1).
WARNING: When preparing cables, in particular power and

grounding cables, use only UL-listed components of the
specified types. Components must also comply with any
applicable national and local safety codes and regulations.
Only qualified trained personnel may be involved in the

preparation of the various cable types. Personnel must use
only approved procedures, in accordance with the applicable
workmanship practice.

Maintenance Manual
Grounding Cables
Shelf grounding is achieved by connecting the shelf to the rack using rack
mounting brackets. Grounding is provided by contact when the unit is fastened
to the rack.
A reliable low-impedance connection must be provided using copper
conductors between the rack frame and the site grounding bus.
Make the connection between the rack grounding screw and the site grounding
bus with a 2 AWG (35 mm²) or thicker copper lead with yellow/green
insulation, in compliance with UL/ETSI recommendations.
Route grounding conductors along the shortest possible route. Treat the bare
portion of the conductor with antioxidant and connect a listed two-hole
compression lug. If the lug is not plated, polish it until it has a bright finish and
coat it with antioxidant before connecting it to the frame of the rack. Do not
mix different types of metal conductors.
DC Power Cables
DC power cables should be prepared on site. Two types of DC power cables
are needed:
 RAP input power cables
 Shelf power cables
ECI Telecom recommends the use of shielded power cables for DC power
connections, with the shields connected to the frame ground at the rack end
only.
RAP Input Power Cables

The RAP input power cables are prepared on site. They connect input power
from the site power distribution subsystem to the DC input terminals of the
RAP.
Two input power cables are required for each rack, one for each source. The
cables must use copper leads complying with UL/ETSI recommendations. Use
a red lead for the positive conductor and a black lead for the negative
conductor. The RAP cable ends must be terminated in M6 cable lugs matching
the conductor gauge.

Maintenance Manual
The recommended cable gauge is 25 mm² or thicker. This gauge ensures that
the voltage drop across the rack power cable does not exceed 2 V, even for
cable runs of maximum 30 meters connected to a RAP and providing power to
multiple BG-30 shelves.
When the RAP is used to provide power to a single BG-30 shelf, lower-lead
gauges may be used, as follows:
 For runs not exceeding 20 meters, it is sufficient to use 10 m² copper leads.
 For runs not exceeding 30 meters, it is sufficient to use 16 m² copper leads.
Shelf Power Cables

One 12 AWG cables, supplied by ECI Telecom, are used to connect the input
power from the rack RAP unit to the POWER IN connector on each INF_30B
module of each BG-30B shelf installed in the rack.
Alarm Cables
Alarm cables used within BG-30 equipment are included in the shipment
according to the site specifications.
The alarm indications are carried by the shelf alarm indication cable. One shelf
alarm indication cable is required for each BG-30 shelf installed in the rack.
There are two types of alarm cable. If the ICP_MCP30 is not installed, an
alarm cable connects between the Auxiliary connector on the MCP30 and one
of the Alarms connectors on the RAP (RAP-100 only). If the ICP_MCP30 is
installed, another alarm cable connects between the ALARMS connector on the
ICP_MCP30 and one of the ALARMS connectors on the RAP (RAP-100
only). Cable length is 2.0 m.
NOTE: There are no Alarms connectors on the RAP-BG.

Maintenance Manual
Management Cables
Out-of-band management traffic is connected to a BG-30 shelf via the RJ-45
(MNG) connector located on the front panel of the MCP30.
The MNG Ethernet connector is wired as a 10BaseT station port for direct
connection through an RJ-45-to-RJ-45 straight cable to a port of a 10BaseT
Ethernet hub.
Suitable standard Ethernet station cables are available from many sources.
Cables of Category 5 or better must be used. In all cases, the length of the
cables must not exceed the maximum recommended for the cable type and hub
port in use (up to a few dozen meters).
Timing (Clock) Cables

The BG-30 shelf uses an RJ-45 connector on the MCP30 front panel that
integrates the two timing reference interfaces (2 x T3 and 2 x T4). A multi
twisted-pair cable with an RJ-45 connector (supplied by ECI Telecom) is used
to connect timing signals from the BG-30 to the site timing reference
distribution subsystems, if it has balanced (120 Ω) G.703 interfaces.
If the site timing reference distribution subsystem has unbalanced (75 Ω) G.703
interfaces, an adapter with coaxial cables that provides balanced-to-unbalanced
conversion (supplied by ECI Telecom) should be configured.
Electric Traffic Cables

Some electric traffic cables can be prepared on site. The following table lists
the type of cables and mating connectors needed for each BG-30 traffic
interface type.

Optical Fibers
Optical fibers can be prepared on site. The following table lists the type of
cables and mating connectors needed to prepare cables for each BG-30 module.
For each optical interface, ECI Telecom supplies patch cords with mating
optical connectors already attached to the fiber. Therefore, only the optical
termination on the ODF side, which is installation-dependent, must be installed
on site.
The optical fibers for connecting to equipment installed in a given rack should
enter the rack from the top, be threaded through cable guides running along the
rack side rails, and end at the FST. The FST must contain enough fiber length
for extracting modules from the BG-30 and for replacing fiber in case of
damage (splicing repairs).

Maintenance Manual
When routing fibers, make sure to observe the minimum bending radius
(35 mm).

Work and Equipment Safety

NOTE: BG-30 equipment is intended for installation in
restricted-access areas only.
BG-30 shelves contain power sources of varying voltages. Take note of the
following guidelines for installing the shelves:
Before you start:

 Ensure the integrity of the grounding connections
 Make sure that sufficient lighting is available
 Do not work on any equipment when it is connected to a voltage source
(DC or AC)
 Ensure that the maximum working temperature does not exceed 70°C
 Use only insulated tools
 Wear protective clothing as required by the requisite safety regulations
 Do not install or maintain equipment connected to external lines (for
example, E1 tributaries) during thunderstorms
 Avoid contact with high-voltage sources when installing shelves, cards, and
modules
 Make sure you are familiar with the warning signals and labels on the
equipment, and strictly observe the procedures needed to avoid the
indicated hazards

Maintenance Manual
Grounding Requirements
All the equipment, including BG-30 shelves, ancillary units, and equipment
from other vendors, must be properly grounded at all times. Good equipment
grounding is necessary to protect personnel and equipment, minimize noise,
and allow the discharge of accumulated static charges to earth.
Rack Grounding Requirements

Connect the rack to the site grounding bar with a ground cable according to
ETSI recommendations (top/bottom connection).
The rack is supplied with a main copper or brass grounding bolt welded to the
rack frame. The grounding stud is identified on the rack by the ground symbol
label.
The rack grounding bolt must be connected to the site grounding bar by a 35
mm2 (2 AWG) grounding cable or thicker, as short as possible, complying with
UL/ETSI recommendations. The bolt must be free of paint. The cable should
be made of copper strands, and terminated on both sides with bolt terminals.
NOTE: If necessary, the gauge of the grounding lead can also

be reduced to the gauge of the RAP power leads.
The rack mounting rails must be free of paint, and provide electrical continuity
to the main grounding bolt. The resistance between any rail and the rack main
grounding bolt must be less than 0.1 Ω.
Pay particular attention to the area in which the RAP is attached. Remove paint
from the rack in this area to ensure efficient electrical contact.
CAUTION: Connect the RAP grounding bolt to the rack

grounding bolt with a grounding cable complying with
UL/ETSI recommendations. The cable should include bolt
terminals on both ends, and should be securely fastened with
a nut and a star washer.

Maintenance Manual
Power Supply Requirements

The BG-30B shelf requires two power sources with a nominal voltage of -48
VDC. Each power source is protected by a UL-listed circuit breaker installed in
the RAP. The required circuit breakers are included in the installation parts kit
supplied with the equipment, and therefore, their current rating is in accordance
with the order.
The site operator must provide a readily accessible UL-listed disconnect device
incorporated in the fixed power wiring of the site. This device limits the
maximum delivered current to a safe value.

Maintenance Manual
Protection Against ESD

This section provides guidelines regarding the protection of BG-30 equipment
and its components against electrostatic damage during handling,
packing/unpacking, transport, installation, commissioning, inspections,
servicing, and maintenance.
Electronic equipment, assemblies, and components that are sensitive to
electrostatic discharge or include sensitive items are identified by the basic
ESD warning symbol shown in the following figure.
Figure 2-2: Basic ESD warning symbol
The information provided in this section is in line with CENELEC Electronic

Components Committee (CECC) specification CECC 00 015, which deals with
protection of devices sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESDS).
Most types of electronic equipment, assemblies, and components can be
damaged by electrostatic discharges. An electrostatic discharge between two
objects occurs when an object carrying static electrical charges touches or is
brought near another object.
Static electrical charges appear as a result of friction between surfaces of
insulating materials or separation of two such surfaces, and may also be
induced by electrical fields. Routine activities such as walking across an
insulating floor, friction between garment parts, friction between objects, and
so on, can easily build up charges to levels that may cause damage, especially
when humidity is low.
In many cases, the build-up of charge can be avoided by using special
materials, for example, garments and packaging can be made of antistatic
materials or materials that have high resistance, but yet are not insulators.

Maintenance Manual
The best way to avoid damage by electrostatic discharge is a combination of

means and procedures that achieves the following goals:
 Avoids build-up of electrostatic charges
 Creates a protected work environment that helps prevent electrostatic
discharges
 Provides means for controlled discharge of any accumulated electrostatic
charges when entering the protected work environment
NOTE: An area in which ESDS can be handled with

minimum risk of damage as a result of electrostatic discharge
or fields, and in which the operator is not exposed to
additional risks, is called an ESD Protected Area (EPA).
Personnel Training
During production and assembly, equipment is handled in workspaces
especially prepared and certified to serve as a permanent EPA. However, in
many cases the environment in which the same equipment is installed or
maintained cannot be assumed to form an EPA with a permanently controlled
boundary. Therefore, all the work involving handling of unprotected ESDS
must be considered as field work.
Field work in this context includes such activities as service and maintenance,
installation, site inspections, and commissioning of components and assemblies
classified as ESDS, together with associated packing and unpacking activities.
All the staff involved in field work must be trained to perform field work in the
same way as work performed in permanent EPAs with respect to the material
quality, personal responsibilities, training, labeling, and packing.

Maintenance Manual
Use of a Temporary EPA

Where necessary, a temporary EPA must be used. The EPA toolkit includes:
 Wrist strap with 1 M Ω series resistor
 Bonding strap with 1 M Ω series resistor

 ESD carpet (work surface), 0.25 m2 minimum
The temporary EPA must include temporary controlled work surfaces and/or
flooring capable of providing protection against ESD.
CAUTION: The temporary EPA must be constructed in a way

that ensures electrical bonding of all the materials used, and
prevents the occurrence of any sudden changes in potential
within the EPA that could cause unacceptable voltages or
discharges to be applied to ESDS.
A means of equipotentially bonding the operator and any work surface and
flooring to ground must be used. For this purpose, the work surface and wrist
straps must be bonded either to a designated ground bonding point or to the
equipment being serviced.
Whenever available, the mains’ ground serves as the ESD grounding facility.
WARNING:While the operator is within the temporary EPA,

the minimum value of resistance used for bonding to ground
must limit the current to ground, produced by voltages
accessible to the operator, to limits specified as safe by the
applicable regulations (see, for example, CECC 00 015). The
same approach is applicable to the surface resistance and
resistance to ground of materials used for temporary work
surfaces and flooring
To enable ESD bonding to ground of equipment racks and any other

nonmoveable equipment containing ESDS, an ESD ground bonding facility
must be located near such equipment, or the equipment must be fitted with a
designated ground bonding point presenting a resistance to ground not greater
than 1 MΩ.

Maintenance Manual
Work Arrangements Within a Temporary

EPA
To ensure that effective ESD protection is indeed achieved, the following
arrangements must be observed by persons entering and/or performing field
work within a temporary EPA area:
 All operators working within a temporary EPA area must wear, as a
minimum, an ESD antistatic protecting garment made of cotton.
 If the extent of the temporary work area is such that the operator needs to
walk and move within that area, the floor of the area must be capable of
providing protection against ESD.
 The operator must be bonded to ground at all times when handling ESDS.
 If it becomes necessary to remove an ESDS from equipment and transfer it
to a temporary work surface away from the equipment, the ESDS must be
given protective packaging unless equipotential bonding to ground of the
operator is maintained.
 An ESDS must be placed directly into protective packaging when it is
removed from equipment. A replacement ESDS must be kept in its
protective packaging until required for immediate installation in the
equipment.
 The field service operator must ensure that the materials and tools
necessary to maintain and control the temporary EPA are available at the
place of the field work at service time.
 All tools for use within the EPA must, as far as is practical, be constructed
so that they do not generate or hold an induced electrostatic charge.

Measuring Optical Levels

These measurements check optical signal levels at the various equipment ports.
Before performing any other commissioning test, proper optical levels within
the limits specified in the BroadGate Product Line System Specifications must
be achieved for each optical component.
Perform these measurements using an OPM configured according to the
wavelength at the measurement port. For reliable measurement, do not connect
the OPM directly to a port but use a two-meter fiber. When measuring high
optical power levels, use attenuators to ensure that the power does not exceed
the maximum OPM input level.
The following table provides a typical data form for recording the results of the
optical level measurements.
Table 4-3: Measured optical levels
Slot Module type Port Wavelength Optical Receive level

transmit level (dBm)
(dBm)

Maintenance Manual
The measured power levels are evaluated as follows:

 The measured power must be within the range of minimum and maximum
levels specified in the BroadGate Product Line General Description for the
transceiver plug-in type installed on the corresponding port.
 The measured power must be within the expected range according to the
optical network plan.
It is usually sufficient to measure the optical levels only at the receive ports. A
good port-receive level indicates that the components in the optical path up to
that port are properly connected and operating normally. If the result is not
satisfactory, perform additional measurements at the transmit port in the remote
site.
Shelf Power-on Test Procedure

Follow the procedure below to test the BG-30 power-on process.
To power on the NE:

1. Perform slot assignments for all the relevant cards and modules in the shelf.
2. After 10 seconds, turn the shelf circuit breaker off.
3. After 30 seconds, turn the shelf circuit breaker on.
The equipment should automatically return to normal operation, without
user intervention and without any abnormal alarms in the system.

Maintenance Manual
SDH Commissioning Tests

Loss of Signal (LOS) Detection Test

This test verifies that NEs recognize alarms and send an alarm notification to
the management system for viewing.
To perform an LOS detection test:

1. Create NEs and links through the management system.
2. Disconnect the Rx optical fiber from one of the modules. An LOS alarm at
the SPI level of this module port appears, together with other alarms
generated by the disconnection.

Maintenance Manual
Network Timing Synchronization Test

This test checks that the BG-30 NEs synchronize properly and switch to the
next priority clock source when a failure occurs.
To perform a network timing synchronization test:

1. Define one NE as the (internal) timing source to which all other NEs are
synchronized. This test can be done with an external timing source, if
requested.
2. Define several priorities for the timing source.
3. Disconnect the Rx fiber connected to the NE defined as the main timing
source.
If the NE has two or more timing sources, it synchronizes to the second priority
source, and an alarm is generated for the missing main timing source.
If the NE has only one timing source, the NE timing is set as “hold-over” and
an alarm is generated for the main timing source. Another alarm is generated to
indicate that there is no available timing source.
Input Sensitivity Test

This test verifies that the input sensitivity of the BG-30 optical modules is
according to specification.
To perform an input sensitivity test:

1. Create one unprotected trail of any rate between two NEs.
2. Connect test equipment to one NE and perform a loopback at the other NE
(in the relevant endpoint ports).
3. Connect a variable optical attenuator to one of the fibers of the relevant
trail, and set the attenuator to 0 dB.
4. Increase the attenuation gradually until the test equipment displays a burst
of errors.
5. Connect an OPM to the first Rx point after the variable optical attenuator
and measure the total power. The measured optical power level is the input
sensitivity of the module.
6. Verify that the results are in accordance with the BroadGate Product Line
System Specifications.

Maintenance Manual
Equipment Power-on Test

This test verifies that the BG-30 NEs continue operating properly after a power
break, without operator involvement.
To perform an equipment power-on test:

3. Shut off the power to one of the nongateway NEs within the relevant trail.
Errors and an Alarm Indication Signal (AIS) alarm appear in the test
equipment. After approximately seven minutes, an “NE disconnected”
alarm appears in the management system current alarm list, and the NE
icon turns gray (indicates no communication).
4. Power on the NE and wait for it to perform the initial download to all
cards/modules in the shelf. This can take five minutes.
5. Verify that the NE is connected to the management station and that there
are no relevant alarms in the test equipment or at the management station.
Traffic Stability Test

This test verifies that traffic operates according to ITU-T standards.
To perform a traffic stability test:

3. Run this test for the appropriate time interval according to the following
table.
4. Verify that no alarms appear in the test equipment or at the management
station. You should achieve an error-free rate of 1 x 10-11 for 2 Mbps and
1 x 10-12 for all other rates.

Maintenance Manual
Path Protection and Nonretrieval Test

This test verifies that SNCP traffic operates properly when a failure occurs.
To perform a path protection and nonretrieval test:

1. Create one protected trail of any rate between two NEs.
3. Disconnect one of the fibers in the active path of the trail. Short alarm
bursts of less than 50 msec appear in the test equipment, and the
management station reports an alarm in the active path of the trail.
4. Verify that the trail works properly on the protection path.
5. Reconnect the optical fiber. The trail remains on the protection path
(nonretrieve mode), and there is no alarm in the test equipment.
Severity Assignment Test

This test, which is performed on one BG-30 NE, determines the level of
urgency accorded to each alarm and creates an alarm-handling protocol.
When a fault is detected or removed, the NE updates the status of the LEDs and
reports the alarm activation or clearing to the management station.
To perform a severity assignment test:

1. Disconnect a fiber from one of the optical interfaces. An SPI LOS alarm of
critical severity appears on the management station for the BG-30 and the
MJR LED on the BG-30B panel is on.
2. Reconnect the fiber. The SPI LOS alarm on the management station clears
and the MJR LED on the BG-30B panel is off (only if there are no other
alarms on the BG-30 unit).
3. Change the severity of the SPI LOS alarm to minor.
4. Disconnect a fiber from one of the optical interfaces. An SPI LOS alarm of
minor severity appears on the management station for the BG-30 and the
MNR LED on the BG-30B panel is on (only if there is no critical or major
alarm on the BG-30 unit).
5. Reconnect the fiber. The SPI LOS alarm on the management station clears
and the MNR LED on the BG-30B panel is off (only if there is no other
alarm on the BG-30 unit).

Maintenance Manual
Transmission Alarm-Handling Tests

This test verifies that the BG-30 NEs can recognize an alarm and send an alarm
notification to the management system, and that the management system
displays it properly.
This procedure tests the following alarms: PDH-LOS, PDH-AIS, and SPI-LOS.
To perform a transmission alarm-handling test:

2. Connect PDH test equipment to one NE and perform a loopback at the
other NE (in the relevant endpoint ports).
3. Disconnect the Tx cable of the test equipment. The management station
reports an LOS alarm for the relevant PDH port.
4. Set the test equipment to transmit an AIS (AIS = on). The management
station reports an AIS alarm for the relevant PDH port.
5. Disconnect the Rx fiber of an optical port. The management station reports
an LOS (SPI-LOS) alarm for the relevant optical port.
If ALS = off, the management station reports a far-end optical port MS-
RDI alarm.
If ALS = on, the management station reports a far-end optical port LOS
alarm.

Maintenance Manual
Maintenance Action Tests

This test verifies that maintenance actions can be performed in the BG-30 NEs
using the management system.
This procedure tests a near-end loopback, forced PDH AIS, forced low-rate
RDI, forced high-rate RDI, and forced MS-RDI.
To perform maintenance action tests:

2. Connect test equipment to one NE. The PDH test equipment detects an AIS
alarm.
3. Perform a near-end loopback at the other trail endpoint. The AIS alarm in
the PDH test equipment clears, and no alarm or error remains on the PDH
test equipment.
4. Using the management station, execute a forced AIS on the PDH port that
connects to the test equipment. The PDH test equipment detects an AIS
alarm.
5. Using the management station, execute a forced low-rate RDI (or forced
high-rate RDI or forced MS-RDI) on a BG-30 shelf. Another BG-30 shelf
reports a low-rate RDI (or high-rate RDI or MS-RDI) to the management
station.

Maintenance Manual
Data Network Commissioning Tests

The data network commissioning tests check that data functionality is in
accordance with system specifications.
Throughput and Latency Tests

These tests determine the time it takes to transmit frames through the network,
and the maximum amount of data that can pass through the network before
frames are lost.
To perform throughput and latency tests:

1. Create two unprotected Ethernet trails of any rate between two NEs in the
network.
2. Connect test equipment to both ports of one NE and connect two ports of
the other NE through an Ethernet cable.
3. Configure the test equipment for RFC-2544 throughput and latency
measurement.
4. Measure the throughput and latency for frame sizes 64, 128, 256, 512,
1024, 1280, and 1518 bytes, and record the results in the appropriate table.
NOTES:
 Measured latency is for both the forward and return paths.
For a single path, the latency will be 50% of the measured
value.
 The latency test is dependent on the throughput results.
For example, if 10 Mbps is tested and the throughput is
4%, the latency test should be for 4 Mbps (2 * VC-12 = 4
Mbps).
 Inject traffic according to the assigned bandwidth (VC-12
= 2.048 Mbps).

System Recovery and Reset Tests

These tests determine the speed at which a device recovers from a buffer
overflow condition or from a power failure.
To perform system recovery and reset tests:

1. Create two unprotected Ethernet trails of any rate (for example, 10/100
Mbps) between two NEs.
the other NE (in the relevant endpoint ports) through an Ethernet cable.
3. Configure the test equipment for manual testing according to the port rate
and for any frame size.
4. Power off one of the NEs and verify packet loss in the test equipment.
5. Turn on the NE, wait five minutes, and verify that the errors in the test
equipment have cleared.
Frame Loss-Rate Test

This test determines the number of frames that are lost when the system is
overloaded.
To perform a frame loss-rate test:

1. Create two unprotected Ethernet trails between two NEs.
3. Configure the test equipment for RFC-2544 for frame loss measurements.
Set to 100%.
The frame loss rate in % is defined according to the following formula:
[(input fps) - (output fps)] * 100 / (input fps)
fps = frames per second

Maintenance Manual
For example, for a 100 Mbps test using 5 * VC-12 = 10 Mbps, with input
fps = 148810 and output fps = 14881, the frame loss is:
148810 - 14881 = 133929, which represents 90% loss.

Stability Test
This test determines the stability of the network by checking that it can
function with no errors for a defined period of time.
To perform a stability test:

1. Create two unprotected Ethernet trails of any rate (for example,
10/100 Mbps) between two NEs.
3. Configure the test equipment for manual testing according to the port rate
and for any frame size.
4. Set the transmit rate in the test equipment to about 90% of the trail
bandwidth.
5. Run this test for two hours, and verify that no errors appear in the test
equipment.

Maintenance Manual
Alarm-Handling Test
This test checks the alarm conditions forced on the NE and the subsequent
action carried out by the NE. It tests signal loss to both the data LAN port and
to the optical interfaces.
To perform an alarm-handling test:

1. Create two Ethernet trails of any rate (for example, 10/100 Mbps) between
two NEs.
3. Disconnect the test equipment to create a signal loss to the data LAN port.
This generates a 10/100 Mbps - Link Down alarm.

NOTE: Be sure to turn on the ALS
function after performing all checks.

Maintenance Manual
NOTE: An optical port with ALS capability turns off its

transmitter when the corresponding receive signal is lost.
Turning the transmitter off may cause a chain reaction, which
turns the optical signals off in a whole section of the network
and generates a large number of alarms. As a result, it may be
difficult to identify the real cause of the problem, and you
may need to use the management station log records to
identify the port.
Each Ethernet port has two LEDs that reside on the RJ-45 connector. One is a
link indication (green), and the other is a speed indication (orange).

This section describes how to install racks on floating (suspended) floors.
To mount the rack on a floating (suspended) floor:

1. Drill the required mounting holes in the suspended floor, in accordance
with the appropriate template.
3. Secure the rack to the floor in accordance with diagram c. in the figure
"Mounting diagrams for ETSI racks" (Rack Installation on Wooden Floors
(on page B-3)).
Suspended Overhead Tray Assembly

This section describes how to install racks on a suspended overhead tray.
To mount the rack on a suspended overhead tray:

1. Refer to the suspended overhead tray diagram (see the following figure)
and position the overhead rack securing brackets.
2. Secure the rack to the overhead cabling trays, using the adjustable brackets.
2200 mm high racks may also be attached to the ceiling; 2600 mm racks
are generally attached only to the ceiling.

Maintenance Manual
Installing Extendable Rails

In high-density installations, it may be necessary to install the xRAP above the
rack using the extendable installation rails available from ECI Telecom.
In this case, attach the extendable installation rails to the top of the rack before
installing the equipment.
Rack Grounding
Immediately after installing the rack, connect its grounding stud to the
prescribed grounding point on the site grounding bar.
Use a grounding lead that meets the requirements described in Rack Grounding
Requirements.
19" Rack Installation

The BG-30 can also be installed in European 19” racks. This is accepted under
the limitations that the rack’s general dimensions are according to the following
figure. Any other European 19” rack must first be examined and approved by
ECI Telecom.
