1 Overview
In line with the rapid spread of broadband Internet, fixed access networks are being actively reinforced
using cutting-edge technologies such as xDSL and FTTH, thereby improving the scale and reach of
packet backbone networks. Now, mobile operators have access to the flexibility, immediacy and lower
overall OPEX benefits offered by IP mobile backhaul over ubiquitous packet networks, even when used
with last leg backhaul technologies such as NEC's PASOLINK or legacy E1/T1s.
Driving the need for more cost effective and flexible solutions are four key issues:
The existing need to reduce backhaul OPEX currently caused by very expensive leased line
services
The new backhaul capacity impact from the full-scale introduction of 3G and mobile broadband
such as HSxPA, WiFi, WiMAX and soon-to-be LTE
o Higher bandwidth wireless services would also require smaller cell sizes and thus more
cells and more backhaul links to aggregate.
o Higher scalable backhaul bandwidth on a “pay as you need” basis – especially important
for the mobile broadband backhaul where theoretical maximums and initial “demand” is
likely to contrast sharply.
The need to support different qualities of service for different types of traffic under different SLA’s.
o Split and route voice and data traffic from any aggregated radio access node to ensure
voice receives the QoS expected on circuit switched networks while data is more
economically transported on a packet backbone
o Support the capability to deal with dynamic changes in bandwidth availability upstream or
downstream on a per customer SLA basis, i.e., protecting guaranteed bandwidth services
at the expense of others in case of the partial number of link faults and/or the link
degradation due to the bad weather and so on.
The need to add “flexibility” points in the network which allow the operator to use or offer various
innovative business models such as:
o Demonstrably fair site / backhaul sharing between multiple mobile operators
o Bandwidth resale to new IP-based services such as WiFi and WiMAX as well as the fixed
line services
o Backhaul outsourcing to other providers from the aggregation point which can now be at
or near the base station
The move to lower cost all-IP networks can not happen overnight so NEC has provided a best in class
solution for mobile network operators or backbone network providers looking to aggregate, filter, route
and eventually migrate backhaul traffic to IP networks while maximizing quality of service, reliability and
granularity of bandwidth reservation.
NEC’s PASOLINK NEO TE Multi-service Transport Unit, along with CX2600 Service Aggregation Switch,
are two new breakthrough solutions designed to satisfy and surpass the aforementioned need for reduced
OPEX, increased capacity, multiple SLAs and flexibility control.
The PASOLINK NEO TE is a compact form factor product designed to fit into constrained spaces at, or
near, base station sites. Although physically much smaller, the PASOLINK NEO TE has been cleverly
designed to accept several interchangeable interface modules so various field configuration and even
reconfiguration after installation can be realized for higher Return on Investment.

By incorporating traffic separation based on the service type (e.g. voice and data) and using traffic
packetization with TDM/ATM emulation function, the existing network can be gradually migrated towards
a more flexible and affordable “All-IP based” network.

1.3.4 Pseudo Wire Emulation and high accuracy clock supply functions
The CES (Circuit Emulation Service) function enables integration of existing TDM/ATM traffic onto a
single, lower OPEX packet network. The TDM/ATM transmission clock complies with ITU-T G.813 and
Telcordia GR-1244-CORE Stratum 3 specifications, and can be selected from line extracted clock or
adaptive clock via packet network. The following emulation modes are supported:
- TDM emulation: SAToP, CESoPSN
- ATM emulation: ATMoP (Cell mode)
1.3.5 OAM function
Ethernet (ITU-T Y.1731/IEEE802.1ag), ATM (ITU-T I.610), as well as MPLS (IETF RFC4379) OAM
functions support fault detection, fault localization/isolation, alarm transmission and performance
measurement. These features deliver powerful manageability and sustained performance on packet
networks.

- Chassis
The Chassis is a 1U height box that can house 1 switch module, 2 interface modules, and 1 fan module.
The node must be powered down in order to replace the modules.
- SW module
The SW module performs switching functions, equipment control and has management interfaces. Two
power inputs are available for redundant power sourcing. There are two types of switch modules, one
basic (including MPLS capability) and another enhanced with External-Clock output capability. Each
SW module is equipped with 8 tributary FE ports.
- LINE1 modules
(1) 16x TDM/ATM T1/E1 module
The TDM/ATM T1/E1 module supports 16 T1/E1 line interface ports. Line modes (ATM or TDM) are
selectable on a per port basis. When TDM mode, TDM cross-connect and TDM emulation (TDM over
Packet ) is supported. When in ATM mode, ATM emulation (ATM over Packet) and IMA can be used.
- LINE2 modules
(1) GbE module
The GbE module is equipped with 2 1000BASE-T and 2 1000BASE-X ports, Maximum of any two
combination can be used for connections to various types of equipments. The optical ports support
hot-pluggable SFP modules, supporting 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX and 1000BASE-ZX.
