Important! The 8DG26031ABXX EC100C must be installed in your shelf in order to

install Release 4.0. The 8DG26031ABXX EC100C replaces 8DG2822AAXX
EC100C.
The 8DG26031AAXX EC100 is not supported in Release 4.0 and later.
Features and application notes

Provides the First-Level Controller (FLC) function for the Alcatel-Lucent

1850 TSS-100C shelf

Provides the Operation, Administration and Maintenance (OAM) functions

Provides the Control and General Interface (CGI) function
Provides a mass-storage function, using a 1 GB flash disk (2.5 inch form factor,
44-pin IDE interface)

Two Equipment Controller TSS-100C (EC100C) cards equipped in a shelf provide

redundancy (1:1, non-revertive).

Description

The EC100C is the FLC for the Alcatel-Lucent 1850 TSS-100C shelf. As an FLC, it
controls shelf management and communication. For the Control and General Interface
function, it manages physical interfaces for alarm collection and signaling. It also uses a 1
GB flash disk to provide mass storage functions.
The EC100C is a solid-state, etched-circuit module that plugs into a card cage. See Figure
C-9, Equipment Controller TSS-100C (EC100C) (p. C-22) for an outline of the
EC100C.
At least one EC100C is required for shelf operation. Two EC100Cs are required for
redundant operation.

Physical layer interface for the different system-related serial communication

channels supported by the FLC function
Station alarm signaling interfaces for rack lamps, remote alarms, and housekeeping
Mass storage interface connector
Module and system identification function

Module power supply

Remote Inventory (RI) function

Processor daughter board

The processor daughter board provides the following hardware components required by
the FLC function:

Microprocessor
System memory, including boot flash EPROM and RAM
I/O parallel bus, including PCI and PCMCIA interface
Serial communication channels

General purpose parallel I/O
