Connection terminal for external power input


A power distribution box provides two groups of connection terminals for direct access
of the -48 V external power supply. Each group of power supplies include -48 V, -48
V GND, and PGND terminals.
By default, the left side is for the active power input, and the right side is for the standby
power input.

Alarm indicator board (LED)


It displays the alarms of the equipment cabinet and synchronizes with alarm indicators
on the alarm indicator panel of the equipment cabinet.
There are green, yellow, and red indicators, which respectively indicate normal power
supply, major or minor alarm, and critical alarm of the equipment.
The LED board has six DB9 (hole) sockets driven by alarm indicator or alarm ring, as
shown in Figure 3-7. The related signals are defined in Table 3-3. These sockets can
connect to the six SDH subracks at the same time.

by LP1x1/LP1x2 board via the motherboard. It processes the electrical signal, and
then sends the signal to the outside.
In the case of 1:N protection for LP1x1/LP1x2 board, the ESS1x2 board decides
whether to send the electrical signal to the working LP1x1/LP1x2 board or to the
protection LP1x1/LP1x2 board according to the control signal from the OCS4/OCS16

4.8.1 Overview
Connection Relations
Figure 4-26 displays the connection relations among OA board and other optical line
boards.
The east optical line board sends optical signals to the OA board. The OA board receives
the signals, then amplifies the optical signals, and sends them to the west optical line
board. Finally, the west optical line board receives the amplified optical signals.
Figure 4-26 Connection Relations among OA Board and Other Boards

OA Board Categories
In practice, OA boards are classified into Optical Booster Amplifier (OBA), Optical
Pre-Amplifier (OPA), or Optical Line Amplifier (OLA) according to the position and effect
of EDFA. Refer to Appendix A Terminologies for the illustrations of EDFA.

OBA locates at the transmitting end of the system. It boosts the optical launched
power of the system, and extends the distance of the regenerator.
OPA locates at the receiving end of the system. It amplifies the weak transmitted
signals, and boosts the input power of the system receiver.
OLA locates in the middle of the optical fiber line of the system. It replaces the optical
regenerator.

4.9.2 EPE1x21/EPT1x21/EPE1B Boards


4.9.2.1 Functions
These boards are (electrical) tributary boards.
l

EPE1x21 or EPT1x21 board has the following functions:

Maps and demaps E1 or T1 electrical signals. Each board can process at most
21 channels of electrical signals.

The timeslots to add service and the timeslots to drop service can be different.

Implements the path protection for VC-12/VC-11 between two groups of AU


buses. The two paths protecting each other can be in different timeslots of two
groups of AU buses.

Processes two groups of AU buses sent by the OCS4 board according to


the concurrent transmitting and preferred receiving principle. The "preferred
receiving" is implemented by detecting alarm and performance data in different
timeslots, and then selecting the relatively normal timeslots for demapping. The
"concurrent transmitting" is implemented by sending data to different AU bus
timeslots concurrently.

Extracts and inserts higher-order/lower-order path overheads.

Supports tributary retiming of at most four tributaries (the first to the fourth E1/T1
tributaries).

Works with BIE1x21 and ESE1x21 boards to implement the 1:N (N6) protection
for EPE1x21/EPT1x21/EPE1B board.

EPE1B board has all the functions of EPE1x21 and EPT1x21 boards. In addition, its
E1/T1 interface supports the unframing and framing methods:

Unframing method: The board only detects the LOS alarm at E1/T1 interface,
AIS alarm, and the CV performance count.

Framing method: Besides all the information detected in the unframing method,
the board also detects the LOF and RAI framing alarm of received E1/T1 signal,
and displays them on the EMS. User can judge if the fault lies in the opposite-end
equipment or the terminal equipment according to the EMS framing alarm
information, and then solve the fault on site.
