Board Precautions

44

When the circuit board is equipped with large-scale integrated


circuit, always remember to protect against static during operation. Follow the operational rules strictly to prevent any
damage of circuit board caused by static.

As the board itself consumes lots of power, always keep good


ventilation to blow away heat.

CLKG Board Functions


Overview

CLKG board provides the required clock for the ZXWN MSCS system. With the hot active/standby design, the active and standby
CLKG boards are locked to the same reference to implement
smooth changeover. CLKG board filters out jitters to remove
possible burrs or jitters of the clock during the changeover.
CLKG boards are configured in the main control shelf. They can
access the 8K, 2Mbps, or 2MHz clock offered by the SPB, INLP
or BITS system, and then provides the 8K_16M (The period is 8K,
and the negative pulse bandwidth is 16M) and 16M reference clock

CLKG board has the following functions:

Communicating with the control console through the RS485


bus.

Allowing to select reference sources in the background or manually, including the BITS, line (8 K), GPS, and local (level-2 or
level-3). Manual switchover can be shielded through software.
The sequence for selecting references manually is:

2 Mbit/s1-2 Mbit/s2-2 MHz1-2 MHz2-8 K1-8 K2-8 K3-NULL

Adopting the loose coupling phase-locked system, working in


four modes: CATCH, TRACE, HOLD and FREE

The output clock can be level 2 or level 3, implemented by


changing the constant-temperature crystal oscillator and corresponding software.

Providing 15-channel 16M and 8K_16M clocks to the UIMC.

Being capable of clock lost alarming and deterioration judgment of inputted reference.

Being capable of active/standby changeover function with


the hot active/standby design. The active and standby CLKG
boards are locked to the same reference to implement smooth
changeover. The CLKG adopts the measure of filtering out
phase jitters to remove possible burrs or jitters of the clock
during changeover. Provide such modes as the command
changeover, manual changeover, fault changeover, and reset
changeover. The Bit Error Ratio (BER) effect on the system
during maintenance changeover is less than 1%.

The discontinuity between phases of two CLKG boards is less


than 1/8 unit interval (UI) code element.

Providing relatively perfect alarm function, including SRAM failure alarm, constant-temperature trough alarm, reference and
output clock loss alarm, reference deterioration alarm, reference frequency deviation exceeding standard alarm and phaselocked loop phase detection loss alarm. These alarms facilitate
to quickly detect the current working status and failure location of the clock generating board.

The clock is maintainable. The VCXO provides the frequency


modulation knob to facilitate frequency modulation when the
axis frequency deviates in a certain range due to the aging of
quartz crystal several years later.

SPB Board Functions


Description

SPB board is used for narrowband signaling processing, including


the HDLC of multi-channel No.7 signaling and the signaling below
MTP3 layer. It transmits the data above MTP3 layer to the home
SMP through the control-plane Ethernet for processing.
It supports E1/T1 mode, and two impedance configurations, 120
and 75 . It supports the signaling transfer.
It supports 64K and 2M signaling links.
It provides two-channel external reference 8 KHz clock to the clock
board.

Mechanism

SPB board may be used for E1/T1 access or HW access. In the


ZXWN MSCS, it usually adopts the E1/T1 access mode to access
the external E1/T1 directly. The signaling processing procedure is
shown in Figure 58.
FIGURE 58 SPB E1/T1 ACCESS PROCESSING PROCEDURE

For the uplink channel, the narrowband No.7 signaling accesses


the ZXWN MSCS system through the E1 or T1 interface of the
SPB board. The SPB processes MTP layer 1 and 2 signaling, and
converts the processed information to IP packets. Through the
IP switching of UIM (intra-shelf switching) or CHUB (inter-shelf
switching), IP packets are distributed to the SMP board for it to
complete the protocol processing of MTP layer 3 and above.
For the downlink channel, the processing procedure is on the contrary.
With the E1/T1 access mode (that is, directly accessing the external E1/T1), the SPB should be configured with RSPB or RSPB/2
rear board.

FE21-24, FE25-28, FE29-32, FE33-36, FE37-40, and FE4144. Each group connects with a shelf.
FE45 and FE46 act as common FE interfaces without routing
function. Usually they are not used for cascading shelves.

For the connection method, refer to Interconnection Cable on


the Control Panel.

DEBUG-FE/232 (RJ45 interface): is used for debugging, not

When the board is


inserted into a slot,
the ENUM indicator is
defaulted as on. That
is, when the board
is being powered on
and the software has
not been started, the
ENUM indicator is on.
When the software
detects the ENUM
signal and knows
that the extractor
is closed, the ENUM
indicator is turned
off to indicate that
the system starts to
work.
To extract the board,
open the extractor
first and turn the
switch slightly. An
ENUM interruption
signal is generated
to the CPU. After the
CPU exits from the
operating conditions
under the control
of the system,
it illuminates the
ENUM indicator,
indicating that board
can be extracted.
Meanwhile, the CPU
continuously queries
whether the ENUM
signal changes. If
the ENUM indicator is
off, do not extract the
board forcibly, since
it will result in service
loss.
If the maintenance
operator does not
extract the board but
closes the extractor
again, the system
detects ENUM signals
and turns off the
ENUM indicator.

Alarm System Components


Description

The alarm system enables users to learn the faults occurring to


devices at any time. If a device is faulty or runs improperly, it
sends alarm information to the alarm server that not only presents
the current or history alarms but also forwards alarms to the alarm
box in real time. The alarm box generates sounds or lights to
prompt the received alarms of different levels and forwards alarm
information to preset mobile phone number if necessary.

Components

The alarm system consists of two components, namely the alarm


server (generally it is an OMM server) and the alarm box, as shown
in Figure 74.
FIGURE 74 ALARM SYSTEM

The alarm server allows users to determine the levels of alarms


to be forwarded to the alarm box as well as the mobile phone
number to which the alarm box sends alarm short messages.

The alarm server transfers alarm messages to the alarm box


through the TCP/IP protocol. The mobile phone module of
the alarm box sends alarms to the specified mobile number
through short messages.

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION

141

ZXWN MSCS Hardware Description

Alarms are not only presented on the LCD screen of the alarm
box but also prompted by the alarm indicator, alarm server
indicator, and sounds.

Alarm Box Functions


Description

Functions

142

The alarm box is connected with an alarm server through HUB or


a layer-2 switch. The alarm box presents different levels of alarm
data sent from the server in various ways, for example, on the
LCD screen, through indicators, and by generating sounds.

Alarm short message sending: The alarm server can be configured to interact with the in-built mobile phone module of the
alarm box, enabling the alarm box to send alarm short messages to the specified mobile number of a maintainer. The
alarm box sends alarm short messages based on severity of
alarms to CDMA or GSM subscribers (however, CDMA and GSM
cannot be supported simultaneously).

Sound prompt: The in-built speaker produces voice or buzzer


alarms to prompt the received alarms and the alarm levels.

Alarm indicator: The four alarm levels are represented by different colors, namely, yellow, orange, blue, and red (listed
from high to low).

Alarm server indicator: The alarm box panel provides 10


alarm server indicators representing 10 group of alarm servers
(generally it is recommended that one indicator represent one
server). Each indicator shows the link status and the alarm
status for a specific group of server servers.

LCD display: The alarm information sent from the alarm server
is displayed on the LCD screen of the alarm box. Moreover, the
alarm box menu and keys on the panel are available to configure the working parameters, for example, the IP address, UDP
port, key tone control, and backlight control.

Remote deployment: An alarm server can be connected to


both local alarm boxes (in the same network section with the
alarm server) but also the remote alarm boxes in different network sections by configuring routing information in the alarm
box. Remote deployment allows more flexible usages of alarm
boxes. For example, the alarm box can be deployed in the office rather than in the equipment room.

Multi-office-in-one: Up to 128 alarm servers can be configured


on an alarm box, and up to 10 groups of alarm servers can be
simultaneously connected to an alarm box. The alarm servers
may reside in different network segments, and therefore the
multi-office-in-one function is employed together with the remote deployment function.

Cross-VLAN alarming: The alarm box can be simultaneously


connected to alarm servers from different VLANs. In this scenario, a layer-2 switch rather than a layer-3 device is deployed
to achieve VLAN isolation, reducing the networking cost.

Confidential and Proprietary Information of ZTE CORPORATION

Chapter 4 Integrated Alarm Box

Network storm detection and alarming: Thresholds can be configured to detect the network status and avoid network congestion caused by data broadcast.

Group-based alarm acknowledgement: Alarms can be acknowledged on a per-group basis as alarm servers can be
classified into groups, and each group of alarm servers is
represented by an alarm server indicator.

Alarm statistics query: The alarm box can show the statistics
of alarms reported by each alarm server on the LCD screen.

Permanent mute: Alarm prompts can be muted based on the


alarm severity.

Remote access: The alarm box supports Telnet-based remote


access. Users can telnet the alarm box to configure relevant
parameters by using man-machine commands. The alarm box
supports the configurations concerning alarm servers, routing,
VLAN, short message transfer, system time, and so on.

Smoke Sensor Cable


Functions

The smoke sensor cable is used to connect the smoke sensor and

The exploration room of the smoke sensor is in herringbone maze
structure. It can effectively probe smoke at the initial smoldering
stage or smoke generated after the fire breaks out. When the
smoke enters the explorer, the light source scatters and the lightreceiver senses the light signal; when light intensity reaches the
preset threshold value, the explorer generates fire alarm signal,
lightens its own fire-alarm-indicator (red) to confirm a fire, and
outputs alarm signal to peripheral devices.
