What’s new?
Subrack and Racks

New subracks and racks configurations

New subrack MLS_3F has been introduced. This new subrack can be used either as MAIN subrack or as
EXTENSION subrack.

The Alcatel 1540 Litespan supports a variety of different scenarios. Different configurations of the
new subrack in a rack allow a maximum of 3840 NB POTS suscribers only .

What’s new?
Boards

New LIOC

LIOC (Local Input/Output Card). This board is used in the first position of MLS_3F subrack.

The board includes mainly the functions of outband Ethernet O&M, craft terminal, G.703
synchronization interface and external alarms collection. This card is based on previous FR2.X
Litespan cards TAUP, HBMPA and HBMPB.

External interfaces available on LIOC are:

— External alarms Input/Output.

— Ethernet interface for the system and connections from every controller (NB, BB and ADM's)
allowing one only external O&M for all the system controller elements.

— Craft Terminal.

G.703 synchronization interface.

What’s new?
Boards
PEIC

Power and E1 Interface Card. Functions are as follows:

o Power feeding interface.

o 16 x E1 external interfaces.

o NLC buses termination.

o Configurable straps for MLS numbering.

NEHC-C

The Narrowband Element Handler Controller (NEHC) performs the narrowband controller function as
Network Element Controller in MLS subrack. This new NEHC-C PDH would be used only in PDH / TDM
applications. This new NEHC-C PDH do not support some functionality previously supported as:

o X.25 management interface.

o DCC management interface.

o EOTC-B is not managed since this interface is removed.

What’s new?
Boards
NSEC

New Narrowband Shelf Extension Controller for the Alcatel Litespan FR3.0 system.

The card is based on the previous NSEC-HS. It keeps the same functions of the old, including NLC
bus extension, former LEEP plug functionality.

The main difference between the two cards is the size. The NLC bus extension lines are located in a
special connector at the front side of the card.

ATLCF

It is a 48 subscribers POTS line card. The main impact of this new equipment practice in line cards is
that the access to subscriber lines is now performed through front-plate connector instead of rear
back-plane connectors.

ATL3G

It is a 48 subscribers POTS line card. The PBA-ATL3G-48 is developed as a functional variant of the
PBA-ATLCF-48 that uses Vinetic-4S codec instead of the Vinetic-4C used in the ATLCF; this has some
impacts in initialization of the board and in Line testing functionality .

LIOC
This board is used in the first position of MLS_3F subrack.

The board includes mainly the functions of outband Ethernet O&M, craft terminal, G.703
synchronization interface and external alarms collection.

The LIOC assumes the RI functions in MBTP and TAUP in the current MLS's. It places together the
information distributed in the current practice in TAUP and MBTP plugs in one only RI EPROM
accessible via IAB from NEHC. The IAB interface is used as well for communication of external alarms.

This card is based on previous FR2.X Litespan cards POWP, MBTP, TAUP, HBMPA and HBMPB. External
interfaces available on LIOC are:

— Ethernet interface for the system and connections from every controller (NB, BB and ADM's)

— External alarms Input/Output.

— Craft Terminal.

— G.703 synchronization interface. One external input (T3 interface) / One output (T4)

With new board PEIC is the local I/O card that resumes all the plugs used in Litespan FR2
(POWP, TAUP, HBMP)

The board collects external alarms through the metral connectors X201, X202 and X203 as can be seen
in front panel from several external devices, which will be stored in the memory in CPLD. The NB
controller through the IAB bus will read these alarms. In the same way, several controls and
commands ordered by the NB controller are managed by the LIOC. This part of the LIOC is strongly
based on TAUP test alarm and aux plug specification

LIOC
CRAFT TERMINAL INTERFACE

Through a RS232 interface on the front panel the craft terminal is connected.

The connector used is RJ11 on the front panel, and the signals are RXD_CT, TXD_CT, DTR_CT, CD,
DSR_CT and EG. The type is asynchronous, full duplex, 1 starts bit, 8 data, 1 parity programmable bit,
1 stop bit, while the speed is Configurable and can be up to 9600 b/s. There is a RS232 receiver and
transmitter used.

Craft terminal uses X204 front panel connector

OUTBAND ETHERNET LAN CONNECTION FOR NETWORK MANAGEMENT

The LIOC includes one external interface for the system. This interface is connected to an internal
switch in LIOC and the Aneto MLS provides connections from every controller (NB-CCs, BB-CCs and
ADM's) to that switch, allowing in the future one only external O&M for all the system controller
elements and internal control communication among all of them

Outband ethernet lan connection for network management uses X206 connector

LIOC
ETHERNET SWITCH

LIOC includes one simple Ethernet switch that provides from one side one common Ethernet interface
for outband management and on the other side control plane communication when needed (future
releases) among the NB, BB controllers and ADM slots. Differential interfaces (HCL type) are routed
from all these slots to the LIOC position, each one connected to a differential port in the switch.

An initial ARP has to be sent during start up by the master controller to guarantee that the MAC
address used for O&M is assigned to proper switch port.

NEHC-C
It is based on the NEHC-B developed for the FR2.X practice introducing minor changes: back-plane
connectors, total PCB width 20 mm, and NLC bus extension.

In Alcatel Litespan 1540 FR3.0 case, the NEHC will have the NLC extension in the front-plate.

NEHCC board will perform the narrowband controller function when equipped in the MLS_3F subrack.
NEHCC will be inserted in slots 2 and 3 as shown in Fig. 3.

The differences between NEHC-B and NEHC-C boards are:

1. NLC bus extension interface will be accessible through front plate instead of through HxMP plugs.
NLC bus extension interface will be accessible through two RJ-45 connectors placed at the front
plate. See Fig. 9.

2. Network management interface and peer link interface have been swapped with respect to NEHC-
B board. For NEHC-C board, Network management interface will be implemented through FEC2
and peer link interface will be implemented through FEC1.

Rear connectors, in order to comply with the mechanichs of MLS-3F subrack.

NSEC-C
The card is based on the previous NSEC-HS, It keeps the same functions of the old, including NLC bus
extension, former LEEP plug functionality.

The NSECC can be inserted in the same slots as the NEHC-C.

The NSECC performs these main functions:

• 51.84Mbps link interface using LVDS:

• 6x8.64 Mbps Narrow band Line Card (NLC) bus interface

• NSECC redundancy management

• Line Card disable/reset/presence detection management

• Alarms collection

• Inventory EEPROM management

• Clock and synchronism drivers.

NSEC-C
A NSEC-C must receive a 51Mbps data stream from a NEHC-C in a main shelf subtending and forward it
to the next NSEC-C that in its turn must forward it to the next subtending and so on, following a
“point–to–point” cascade architecture.

A NEHC-C can drive a maximum of 3 NSEC-C cascaded.

For protection reasons, a redundant NSEC-C must be provided in every MLS-3F shelf, i.e. the cascade
is doubled. One of the two NSECC's of a shelf is considered as MASTER, or active from
synchronization point of view; the other one is declared as SLAVE, or standby. Redundant
configuration for NSECC's in MLS shelf is considered a possible architecture, but a single not–
redundant NSECC configuration is possible as well.

The two frontal LED's are complied with the following indications:

• GREEN LED: as general internal failure, when this green LED is on, no internal alarms are present.

• YELLOW LED: as active/standby status, when the yellow LED is on, the relevant NSEC-HS must be
considered in ACTIVE status. The other one must obviously have the LED off.

ATLC-F

The ATLCF-48 is developed taking as reference latest design of ATLC-E card for Litespan with the only
functional difference of the higher number of channels to be handled, 48 i.s.o. 32 and the
physical changes related to the new equipment practice in which the board is to be used.

The ATLC-F fits 2 LED's on front plate. Functionality is:

Green led. When on, it indicates that operating voltages are present for correct board operation.
When off, one or more voltages are not generated on the board, so it is not operational.

Yellow led. It is turned on when at least 1 of the 48 subscriber terminals is active.

FESC card. It has in the front area GE interfaces to connect externally two VISC3-B cards, in order
to obtain in the same GE interface the NGN VoIP plus NM signals.

The functions or GIO3 are the same to those in LIOC, with a more sophisticated Ethernet switch, but
external input (T3 interface) and output (T4) for G.703 synchronization interface are lost in this
case. In the case of GIO3 equipment it should be equipped POW3 also, and the external E1

VIS3-B

The VIS3-B in Aneto is considered a reshaping of the current FR2 VISC-B card for NGN VoIP services .

Can be equipped in two specific slots in MLS-3F (L311ANE) or in four specific slots in MLS-3F4 variant.
The redundancy lines are integrated in the back-plane, including the simulation of “VISP-A plug
presence”. In the case of MLS-3F4 redundancy can be achieved for the first and for the second
pair of VIS3-B cards., it means that redundancy in these cards is by pairs, one VIS3-B is active and
the other the redundant in the first pair, and the same for the second pair of VIS3 cards. No Sw
impact is foreseen. At start-up VISC-B Sw will detect the “VISP-A plug presence” only if hot
switch-over is configured by operator and NEHC initializes the VISC-B in this mode; otherwise the
plug presence is not checked. The case of cold redundancy is fully driven by the NEHC, careless on
the plug presence. As conclusion, in case one only VISC-B is equipped (i.e. the peer VISC-B is not
present or a LT card is equipped in such position) no issue is expected although the “simulated”
VISP-A is present

MANAGEMENT OF THE 1540 LITESPAN ACCESS NODE

The access node is managed by either, locally


by means of a Craft Terminal, or remotely
managed by an Operations System.

As a general rule, all the input coming from the


operator and accepted by the NE never
disappears, as the access node
configuration changes are saved in a non-
volatile memory to allow an automatic re-
configuration after a shutdown.

The Alcatel Litespan 1540 NE is able to recover


from faulty equipment or temporary
malfunctioning equipment. Such a recovery
is required for the stable cross-
connections, which are in set-up or release
phase.

SOFTWARE DOWNLOAD

The Software management menu, allows displaying and/or modifying the SW versions available at NEHC
board, showing the status of the SW downloading process if any. Other possible operation is to
download a new version (or edition) of software to the main boards of the system, from a remote
source (CT, OS or a server identified by an OSI address).

The NEHC board (where the software to be downloaded is targeted) has two banks of memory; therefore
it is possible to start downloading new software without disturbing traffic. Once the new software has
been downloaded (in the inactive bank of memory), it is possible to activate it (to copy to the
destination boards and to test if it works properly) and to commit it (to finish the operation, by
releasing the inactive bank of memory). If the test shows that it is not working properly, it is possible
to go back with the previous software, via the roll back option (if it is not yet committed). Please,
notice that for starting a downloading process, it is necessary to release the inactive bank of memory,
by deleting (if any) its software version.

INTERFACE CONFIGURATION

Only are marked (Type) the primary and secondary links. The interface has a label (User label) and two
numbers, one of them (Interface Identifier) provided by the exchange and another for internal use
(Alcatel Itf Identifier) starting 1 and ending in the max number of interfaces. Each link belonging to
an interface is identified by an exchange number (2Mbps Id) and an internal number (2Mbps link
Number). A switching identifier number (Adjacent LE number) must be provided.

To define a V5.2 interface, select V5 → Network Interfaces → Declare → V5.2:


Field Value Notes
User label Up to 14 capital/lowercase characters
Adjacent LE From 0 to 2147483648 (numerical PTT value for LE
value)
Interface Id From 0 to 16777215 (numerical value) LE value for interface
Alcatel Itf Id From 1 to 16/21 (numerical value) Litespan value for interface
V5.2 variant It depends on LE (normally 0 or 1). See NOTE 1
Number From 1 to 16/21 (numerical value) Litespan value for link (NEHC 02-
xx)
Id From 0 to 255 (numerical value) LE value for link (G.965 sec
16.2.4.3.5)
LCC Only used by OS.
2Mbps Link (Primary) PSTN signalling link (one per
interface)

PDH SYSTEM SYNCHRONIZATION

The PDH Litespan has five timing sources: Two externals, two extracted and one internal. The external
ones are physically connected to LIOC.

The internal one is located in NEHC-C (64 KHz clock reference) and it is not configurable.

The extracted ones are configurable and timing sources are extracted from one and/or two G.703 2048
Kb/s links.

The timing sources must fulfill G.704 frequency accuracy (50 ppm) and jitter and wander must fulfill
G.736 and G.823 for proper operation. Litespan output clock has a frequency accuracy of 50 ppm.

Litespan intrinsic output jitter is less than 25 ns (measured in a 60 sec time interval and within frequency
range from 20Hz to 100KHz). Anyway, the output jitter is according G.823 option 1 (if extracted
source).

When system is working with external (or extracted) references, the operating mode is tracking mode.
Otherwise, if internal is used, the system has free running mode. If being used clock source fails, the
system search from highest to lowest priority source which is the first available (without failure)
source and switches to it. The system remains with selected source even a higher priority source
become available. That means, no switchover (except for free running mode).
