1.1 Introduction
The 7302 ISAM is a frame based Digital Subscriber Line Access Multiplexer
(DSLAM), that is, a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) access multiplexer which is
based on a frame forwarding architecture in a packet aggregation network.

User Side
At the user side, each 7302 ISAM terminates DSL links and a limited number of FE
or GE links.
It is possible to connect subtending DSLAMs to the FE/GE links at the user side in:
• cascading mode: a chain of 1 subtending ISAM per ISAM
• star mode: multiple subtending ISAMs per ISAM
• ring mode (except when there is a ring behind a Hub-ISAM).
Figure 1-2 shows the cascading topology.

Network Side
At the network side, the 7302 ISAM terminates GE or FE links. The following
configurations are possible:
• Connected to one or more Ethernet Switches
The Ethernet links can be connected to one or more Ethernet Switches. These
Ethernet Switches forward the frames over the Ethernet based aggregation access
network until they reach the IP Edge Router or BRAS of the corresponding
Network Service Provider (NSP). At the IP Edge Router or BRAS, the frames
enter the IP backbone of the NSP.
• More than one FE/GE link (link aggregation)
In case of more than one FE or GE, Ethernet link aggregation is used.
• Directly connected to an IP Edge Router
The 7302 ISAM can be connected directly to the IP Edge Router or BRAS. The
Ethernet aggregation network is reduced to one or more parallel Ethernet links.
Note — A link is a term which is used to refer to the physical layer

of an interface of the 7302 ISAM, for example, an ADSL link, an
Ethernet link.

Note — For the LT links:
• up to 16 LTs for 7302 XD equipment

• up to 18 LTs for 7302 FD equipment
The system consists of a Gigabit Ethernet switch fabric, that bridges or routes user,
subscriber control and network management traffic between:
• on the subscriber side:
a set of subscriber line interfaces and a number of sub-tending interfaces towards
other, hierarchically subordinate DSLAM systems.
• on the network side:
one or more Network Termination (NT) interfaces.
7302 ISAM Subsystems

The 7302 ISAM is composed of the following subsystems:
• ISAM Access termination Control and Management (IACM) subsystem.
This subsystem:
• contains the control functions of the 7302 ISAM on the NT board.
• provides management interfaces on the NT board to the outside worlds and control
interfaces towards other boards (LT boards, NT I/O board).
• contains the LT boards.

Service Hub
The Service Hub (SHub) multiplexes the Ethernet frames into a reduced set of
network links (that is, aggregates traffic from / to subscriber interfaces on one or a
limited number of network uplinks).
The SHub is integrated in a NT board. Figure 1-4 shows the connections of the NT
board with the rest of the 7302 ISAM.

The SHub provides 24 FE/GE ports:

• 16 ports are used for connecting to each LT board
• 1 port used for internal purposes(*)
• 7 external ethernet ports with an optical, electrical FE or GE interface, which can
be used for network uplinks, subtending links (aggregation of traffic from or to
other DSLAMs) or Ethernet subscriber links.
Note — (*): This is valid for the ECNT-A only.

For the ECNT-C, internal communications pass via the PCI interface.
This allows to support one additional interface on the front of this NT.

1.3 Equipment Management
The NE equipment practice type does not have to be explicitly planned by the
operator, but is autoplanned by the NT at startup, depending on the detected type. At
the same time, the NT will autoplan the maximum number of racks supported by this
equipment practice. The following ISAM types are defined:
• LEEU: Large ISAM EU market (6 racks, 4 subracks per rack)
• LEUS: Large ESAM US market (6 racks, 4 subracks per rack)
• LNEU: Large New Equipment Practise EU market(6 racks, 4 subracks per rack)
Subracks are automatically planned upon detection. The operator can control the
administrative state of a subrack (lock/unlock).
The NE manages different types of boards. A complete overview of all supported
board types in each type of subrack is given in the chapter “Subracks”. Board
planning is supported for all types of boards, including the appliques. For LSMs, the
operator can control the administrative state (lock/unlock).
Central Office Equipment management

Central Office equipment only supports configurations consisting of a single
rack/subrack.
Remote Node Equipment management

For remote nodes, the Remote Equipment Module (REM) expansion units are
modelled in the NE SW as regular subracks in a 7 racks by 4 subracks matrix.
REM expansion units are single-LT expansion subracks. A REM is modeled as a
virtual subrack on its own, holding 1 LT slot. A REM subrack can be equipped
anywhere in the 7x4 matrix, except for the main subrack location. Each REM
subrack holds one REM only. Up to 12 REMs are supported.
Figure 1-5 gives an overview.

RACK 1 RACK 2 RACK 3 RACK 7

REMs are connected to the host system via a subrack expander unit
• on 7330 XD equipment, this is the GENC(-E) board supporting 2 uplinks, 10
downlinks and 2 configurable links.
• on 7330 FD equipment, this is the NT I/O board supporting 6 downlinks
(NCNC-B) or 12 downlinks (NCNC-C) depending on the NT I/O board type.
Unlike other LTs, REMs are not able to indicate their position in the system. Their
positioning is provisioned by the operator by provisioning the mapping of the SFP
port ID on the subrack expander unit (GENC or NT I/O) to a remote LT slot position
(rack/subrack/slot) referred to as the equipment port-mapping.
Note — There is no longer a fixed REM slot positioning / SFP port
mapping.
For expansion LTs (that is, LTs in physical expansion subracks), which are capable
of reporting their physical location, this provisioning is used by the system to check
the operator's cabling of the system. If a cabling mismatch is detected, an alarm is
reported.
The provisionable port-mapping also facilitates the network management station to
properly configure the system as a whole, including the SHub LT ports
configuration. It additionally allows a multi-subrack LT-indexing scheme in
CLI/TL1 preprovisioning scripts, including the SHub LT ports configuration.

2 — ISAM-V
2.1 System Definition
The ISAM with integrated Voice-band services (ISAM-V) is the product where
voice-band services are integrated in ISAM. It supports the NarrowBand (NB)
services and provides the connection to the Next Generation Voice Networks
(NVGN) for legacy Public Switching Telephone Network (PSTN) users via Voice
over IP (VoIP). It plays the role of Media Gateway (MG), also called Access Media
Gateway (AG).

ISAM-V
The ISAM-V connects legacy Narrow Band (NB) user interfaces, including Plain
Old Telephone Services (POTS) and Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN)
BA, to the NGVN.
ISAM-V supports centralized configurations, where the NB user interfaces and MG
are integrated in the same node, and distributed configurations, where the MG is
located in a hub node and the NB user interfaces in remote nodes.
The remote nodes can be subtended by the ISAM-V acting as a MG, or located
within the EMAN or IP network.
The hub ISAM-V, combined with the subtending/remote ISAM-V, provides the
view of a unique centralized MG. In subtending or remote configurations, the
connection to the hub is via Fast or Gigabit Ethernet (optical or electrical) to the
Service Hub (SHub) node. The Trunk MG links the NGVN with a legacy PSTN
network.

2 — ISAM-V
The Softswitch is responsible for call control and charging, and communicates with
the Media Gateways via the Media Gateway Control (MEGACO) protocol H.248.
SIGTRAN is used for ISDN user, i.e. Q921 is terminated in ISAMV and SIGTRAN
is implemented to transfer Q931 messages between ISAMV and ASP.
The ISAM-V internal forwarding is frame based. Frame based forwarding is done
either based on L2 (Ethernet), L3 (IP) information or L4 (UDP) information carried
in the frames.
ISAM-V can host multiple MGs in one shelf. In this case, multiple service providers
could be assigned (one service provider associated with one MG).
Network configurations
Different configurations of the network architecture described above exist (see
Figure 2-2), depending on the aggregation network, and depending on the way that
ISAM-V connects to this aggregation network:
• Switched aggregation network, iBridge or IP-aware bridge:
ISAM-V connects to a Layer 2 aggregation network and implements the iBridge
or IP-aware bridge for forwarding voice traffic
• Routed aggregation network, iBridge or IP-aware bridge:
ISAM-V connects to a Layer 3 aggregation network, and implements the iBridge
or IP-aware bridge for forwarding voice traffic
• Routed aggregation network, IP router:
ISAM-V connects to a Layer 3 aggregation network, and implements IP router
for forwarding voice traffic

System Interfaces
NB Subscriber Links
ISAM-V supports Line Termination boards with various types of NB subscriber
interface:
• POTS interface
This is the analogue Z interface connecting to a telephone set. The main common
features are the following:
• Line feeding
• Symmetrical programmable ringing
• Metering tone insertion
• Polarity reversal
• Programmable line impedance with echo cancellation
• Overvoltage protection
• Line testing facility
• ISDN BA interface
ISDN BA interface corresponds to the U reference point of the Digital
Transmission System.
The interface provides full–duplex and bit independent transmission via two
wires at a net bit rate of 144 Kbit/s, a transparent 1 Kbit/s service channel and a
1 Kbit/s maintenance channel for loops and error messages on subscriber lines,
plus synchronization bits.
Duplex transmission is achieved through the use of Echo Cancellation Hybrid.
With the Echo Cancellation Hybrid method the Echo Canceller (EC) produces a
replica of the echo of the transmitted signal that is subtracted from the total
received signal. The echo is the result of imperfect balance of the hybrid and
impedance discontinuities in the line.
The 2B1Q encoding is applied; the symbol rate on the line is therefore 80 KBaud.
Network Links and Subtending Links

ISAM network interfaces are applicable. Two types of Ethernet links are available to
connect the ISAM-V to other network nodes: GE and FE. They can be used to
connect the ISAM-V to the Ethernet network or to connect the ISAM-V to a
subtending ISAM-V. These links can be electrical, or can be optical.
7 or 8 connectors(*) are available but these have to be shared for three purposes:
Ethernet user links, network links, subtending links.
Note — The number of uplinks depends on the NT board type:
• ECNT-A: 7 uplinks
• ECNT-C, NANT-A: 8 uplinks

2 — ISAM-V
VoIP Signalling Protocol Stack

Signaling and call control messages between MG and the Media Gateway Controller
(Call Server) is performed using the standard MEGACO /H.248 protocol; XLES
proprietary protocol is used between hub-ISAM-V and subtending/remote nodes.
The signalling messages (both MEGACO/H.248 and XLES protocols) are
encapsulated into IP/UDP packets; L2 frames formatted according to IEEE 802.3
and VLAN 802.1Q tagged including priority queuing according to IEEE 802.1p.
MEGACO/H.248 and XLES signalling packets will include configured DSCP
values.
Figure 2-3 shows the signaling protocol stack for POTS user connected directly to
the hub-ISAM-V. The Z interface is terminated on ISAM-V and user events (for
example, hook off, hook on, and so on) are converted into MEGACO messages.

between remote/subtending ISAM-V and hub ISAM-V. XLES/LAPV5 will be
terminated on hub ISAM-V and converted in MEGACO message to communicate
with MGC. Figure 2-4 illustrates the MEGACO/XLES signaling protocol stack.

Voice Traffic Protocol Stack

ISAM-V encapsulates voice traffic in UDP/IP using the Real-Time Protocol (RTP)
which provides the information needed to restore the original digital voice stream.
This is supported in ISAM-V as well as Real-Time Control Protocol (RTCP), the
control protocol associated to RTP.

2 — ISAM-V
Some routers support different Quality of Service (QoS) classes based on the
Differentiated Services methodology. The class of service is defined by the
Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) which corresponds to the 6 first bits of
the Type of Service (TOS) field of IPv4, the remaining 2 bits are currently unused.
The IP voice packets (RTP/RTCP) in ISAM-V include a configured DSCP value,
therefore the voice packets can use separate queues from data in the IP network
minimizing delay and jitter. The value of DSCP is configurable. The voice frames in
the ISAM-V are formatted according to IEEE 802.3 and VLAN 802.1Q tagged
including priority queuing according to IEEE 802.1p.

The 5523 AWS is the Element Manager in charge of the following functionality:
• Equipment management
• SW download
• Configuration backup/restore (performed by the AWS module for VEM and
IVPS)
• Alarm management
The Voice Element Manager (VEM is the 5523 AWS module for Voice domain in
charge of:
• Media gateway interface management:
• Signaling gateway management
• Voice subscriber provisioning
• POTS/ISDN BA user ports management
• Providing a full integration with the rest of 5523 AWS domains.
APC is the Voice Service Manager for Alcatel-Lucent Access Nodes. It provides a
full abstraction of the underlying technology used to provide the service with the
following main features:
• Voice subscriber provisioning and line testing for individual subscribers or a set
of subscribers that allows fast deployment of the network
• Open interfaces to OSS that eases massive deployment of the service, preventive
and customer-on-call line testing and subscriber information alignment with
OSS.
The 5530 NA, 112 MD/112 center is in charge of the PSTN line testing functionality,
which includes electrical measurements in the voice band to test the loop, testing of
the POTS line termination, and testing of the POTS terminal equipment.

Management Interface
The ISAM-V supports two separate SNMP agents: the NT part and IVPS part. The
NT part supports SNMPv1/SNMPv2/SNMPv3 agent, the IVPS part supports a
SNMPv1 agent. The EMS has to use a different IP address to address a particular
agent.
Local management of the NT part requires the operator to use the serial interface on
the NT.Via this interface, he can manage all the equipment management, alarm
management and SW/DB management functionality using CLI/TL1.
Note — Single agent in NT is implemented via single IP address.
Local management of IVPS is not supported; therefore the trouble shooting and
debugging functions for voice service will be done via a MIB browser. The
management interface for ISAM-V is illustrated below in Figure 2-10.

Addressing Schemes in ISAM-V
General IP address/VLAN deployment model

To isolate the different kinds of traffic, three VLANs are required:
• OAM VLAN:
carries the voice OAM traffic between ISAM-V and SNMP manager (e.g. VEM,
APC, and so on); this traffic ends in the IVPS. The OAM VLAN is hard coded in
IVPS, i.e. 4093. The OAM VLAN is of iBridge mode. IVPS port and network
port are involved in the OAM VLAN. The OAM VLAN can be the same as the
OAM VLAN for NT (responsible for equipment management in ISAM-V) or can
be different from the OAM VLAN for NT.
• MEGACO VLAN:
carries the MEGACO and Sigtran signaling between the MGC (Call Server) and
the ISAM-V. This traffic ends in the IVPS. The VLAN is of iBridge mode and
configurable. IVPS port and network port are involved in the VLAN.
• Voice VLAN:
carries the Voice RTP traffic between LTs and any other user destination either
in the same ISAM-V, subtending/remote ISAM-V nodes (handled by the same
IVPS) or any other place via the edge router. XLES (internal signaling, control
and management) traffic between IVPS and LTs is also carried in this VLAN as
well. Therefore involved ports in this VLAN are IVPS port, LT port, subtending
port and network port. The Voice VLAN is a special VLAN (in fast path vrf
mode)which allows user-to-user communication.
Note — Megaco VLAN and Voice VLAN can be the same VLAN:
• ISAM-V can use different VLANs for Megaco and Voice to

isolate megaco and voice traffic
• ISAM-V also can use same VLAN for Megaco and Voice to
reduce the number of VLANs and IP addresses consumed by
ISAM-V.

2 — ISAM-V
Corresponding to the different kinds of VLAN and voice service requirements, the
IP interface/address scheme is as follows:
• OAM IP address:
Two kinds of OAM IP address are used in ISAM-V
• one OAM IP address per IVPS (pair). It is retrieved through BOOTP and not
configurable.
• one OAM IP address per node, the OAM IP address is used by NT. It is configurable
and also can be retrieved through BOOTP.
• MEGACO IP address:
One MEGACO IP address per IVPS (pair). It is configurable by the operator.
• Voice IP address:
One Voice IP address per node. It is configurable by the operator.
• XLES IP address:
One XLES IP address per IVPS (pair). It is configurable by the operator.
Note 1 — All Voice IP addresses defined in a given Voice VLAN are

in the same subnet: namely, Voice IP address of hub node, Voice IP
address of subtending nodes, and XLES IP address of IVPS belong to
same subnet. Voice IP address of remote nodes can be in the same
subnet or in different subnet.
Note 2 — L3 forwarder is enabled in all hub, subtending and remote
ISAM-Vs.
Note 3 — Non-overlapping voice IP addresses per service provider.
Note 4 — Destination IP address for a voice packet can be any IP

address, meaning any of the previous IPs or any fully different IP
address not belonging to that subnet.
IP Address Usage Optimization

In the IP address/VLAN deployment model as mentioned above, 7 IP addresses are
required and 20 IP addresses are occupied in total for a typical 2-subrack ISAM-V
application.
The IP address usage can be optimized as follows:
• The IVPS is configurable for 2 or 3 VLANs:
The IVPS MEGACO VLAN and IP address and the Voice VLAN and IP address
can be merged. The configuration can be either:
• 3 VLANs: one for OAM, one for MEGACO signaling and one for voice; see Figure
2-12
• 2 VLANs: one for OAM, one for merged MEGACO signaling and voice; see Figure
2-13
• The Voice IP address per subrack and the Voice IP address per IVPS can be
merged to 1 IP address. Only 1 public Voice IP address is required for each IVPS.

Note — Because there is no IVPS in Subtending/Remote ISAM-V,

Subtending/Remote ISAM-V uses only two VLAN: OAM VLAN

In each NT, there are two IP addresses: OAM IP address and Voice
IP address.
POLT/BALT does not own an IP address, it only owns a range of
UDP ports on top of the Voice IP address on the NT.

As a result, the following configurations are supported:

• Configuration 1:
• 3 VLANs: 1 for OAM, 1 for MEGACO and 1 for Voice
• For each IVPS: 1 OAM IP address, 1 MEGACO IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• For each hub node: 1 OAM IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• For each subtended node: 1 OAM IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• 3 VLANs: 1 for OAM, 1 for MEGACO and 1 for Voice
• For each IVPS: 1 OAM IP address, 1 MEGACO IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• For each hub node: 1 OAM IP address, the Voice IP address is merged with the
Voice IP address for IVPS
• For each subtended node: 1 OAM IP address, the Voice IP address is merged with
the Voice IP address for IVPS
• 2 VLANs: 1 for OAM, 1 for merged MEGACO and Voice
• For each IVPS: 1 OAM IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• For each hub node: 1 OAM IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• For each subtended node: 1 OAM IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• 2 VLANs: 1 for OAM, 1 for merged MEGACO and Voice
• For each IVPS: 1 OAM IP address and 1 Voice IP address
• For each hub node: 1 OAM IP address, the Voice IP address is merged with the
Voice IP address for IVPS
• For each subtended node: 1 OAM IP address, the Voice IP address is merged with
the Voice IP address for IVPS
Note — Configuration 1 is the IP address/VLAN deployment model

as described in “General IP address/VLAN deployment model”.

2 — ISAM-V
Forwarding Modes and Traffic Types

Layer 2 forwarding, Layer 3 forwarding and Layer 4 forwarding are supported in
ISAM-V. For Layer 2 forwarding and Layer 3 forwarding, see the 7302 ISAM System
Description. The Layer 4 forwarding principle is illustrated in the following section.
There are four kinds of traffic in ISAM-V:
• MEGACO/Sigtran signalling traffic between IVPS and MGC
• XLES traffic between IVPS and LTs (local and remote/subtending)
• Voice traffic between user terminations
• Management (OAM) traffic between IVPS and SNMP manager
To isolate different kinds of traffic, several VLANs are defined. Each kind of traffic
will be handled by a different forwarding mode.
The following subsections deal with the different kinds of traffic related to ISAM-V.
Layer 4 UDP Forwarding Principle

L4 UDP forwarding use the combination {VLAN + Protocol type + destination IP
address + UDP port} to forward the IP packets to different POLT/BALT boards.
Each POLT/BALT board will be assigned to a different UDP port range determined
by its NT (SHub), and the UDP range distribution per port (slot) will be the same in
every ISAM-V node.
Figure 2-15shows the L4 UDP forwarding concept

MEGACO/ Sigtran Signaling Traffic

This traffic takes place in the MEGACO VLAN between IVPS and MGC. Layer 2
iBridge forwarding mode is required. Table 2-1 shows the value of each field.

The NT (SHub) forwards the packet based on Layer 2 information, that is, the
destination MAC address.
XLES Traffic
This traffic takes place in the Voice VLAN. The ports involved in such the Voice
VLAN are IVPS port, POLT port, BALT port, network port and subtending ports
(those last ones in case POLTs/BALTs plugged in cascading nodes).
XLES traffic exists between IVPS and LTs (including POLTs and BALTs). LTs can
be located locally within the same shelf as IVPS or located in subtending shelf or
remote shelf. Figure 2-16 shows a reference configuration of ISAM-V.

This traffic also takes place in the Voice VLAN. Voice traffic can exist between:
• between local LTs
• between LTs in the same subnet
• between LTs in differnet subnets
• between LT and netwrok end user

Supplementary Services
Supplementary services are widely used in traditional PSTN network. When
customers consider evolving/migrating from TDM network to NGN IP based
network, they expect feature parity, i.e. to support legacy services. Therefore, the
support of supplementary services becomes mandatory for ISAM-V.
In a H.248 network, the ISAM-V works as a voice access gateway. All call activities
are controlled by the MGC. The supplementary service is provisioned by the
operator on the MGC or registered on the MGC through a registration procedure by
an operation by the subscriber. Such service registration and withdrawing operation
are transparent to the ISAM-V. The ISAM-V responds to the MGCs H.248 message
and allocates resources for the subscriber when a supplementary service is invoked
for this subscriber.
Table 2-3 lists the supported supplementary services in ISAM-V.

2.2 System Architecture
Product Architecture
The ISAM Voice Package architecture is that of the ISAM with the addition of voice
services, which translates into the addition of the following boards:
Table 2-4 ISAM-V Specific Boards
Board Function Board Mnemonic
For CEP For FD

equipment equipment
practice practice
one server board, which is the VoIP gateway for IVPS NVPS
ISAM-V(1)
one LIM board providing POTS interface connectivity POLT NPOT
one LIM board providing ISDN Basic Access (ISDN BA) BALT NBAT
interface connectivity
Notes
(1) This board provides a server function, but is plugged into an LT position
Architecture View
The following applies for the ISAM-V product architecture:
• ISAM-V nodes are connected to an EMAN
• An ISAM-V node integrates either:
• the server board (see Table 2-4) performing the signaling and OAM functions of the
GW
• a number of NB LTs boards (see Table 2-4) performing the media functions
• both types together
• MEGACO and SIGTRAN signaling and external voice service OAM are
terminated at IVPS
• Internal control and signaling communication between IVPS and NB LTs uses
XLES protocol.
• IVPS board is located into a hub node
• From the voice service point of view, one IVPS can control several ISAM-V
cascading nodes (up to 4 levels) with a number of NB LT boards as well as several
ISAM-V distributed nodes (i.e. accessible via a common EMAN) with a number
of NB LT boards

2 — ISAM-V
• All User Port in one NB LT are controlled from the same IVPS
Note: Although it is not a system constraint, the network deployment should be
planned so that all user ports in one shelf are associated to/ controlled by only one
IVPS. This is recommended for two different reasons:
• simplest network architecture with an easier operation
• to keep compatibility with further features in order to limit the bandwidth/number
of calls per shelf
• The different traffic flows related to voice service are isolated into different
VLANs which are defined over the EMAN and in the ISAM SHub:
• Voice VLAN:
RTP traffic and XLES signaling is carried over this VLAN
• MEGACO VLAN:
for MEGACO signaling traffic between CS and the media GW and SIGTRAN
signaling between ASP and the signalling GW
• External OAM VLAN:
for provider operation and management
• Both hub and subtending (cascading or remote (distributed)) configurations are
possible. In cascading configurations, the connection to the hub is via Fast or
Gigabit Ethernet (optical or electrical) to the SHub of the hub node.

IVPS/NVPS
The server board communicates with the voice line boards by means of an “extended
BLES” (XLES) proprietary protocol. The server board terminates the proprietary
signaling messages from the voice boards, provides a MEGACO interface with the
call server and handles the specific OAM needed to support VoIP service.
The server board functions are:
• The signaling interface with the call server or soft-switch (MEGACO signaling)
• Internal proprietary protocol (XLES) for signaling supervision and control with
POLT line termination boards
• Digit Map processing (either under MEGACO reception or by CDE data)
• Specific OAM interface needed to support VoIP configuration and service
• Persistent storage of the voice service database including back-up and restore
• Regarding ISDN signaling, the server board:
• performs message relay between the DSS1 XLES messages containing Q921 and
the IUA over SCTP messages that carry the Q931 info towards the ASP.
• relays the ISDN signalling packets (DSS1) from/to UDP-XLES socket and
translates those related to Q921 info (SAPI, TEI) to/from IUA/SCTP.
• Q931 layer is not processed by IVPS or BALT, but transparently sent/received as
SIGTRAN packets information to/from the Call Server.
• Configuration data:
the server board stores the L1 activation type (per-call or permanent) and the
D-packet switching enabling / disabling for each port. When the communication
with a BALT/NBAT is established, IVPS/NVPS sends this information to
BALT/NBAT.
POLT/NPOT
The LIM board supports up to 48 POTS interfaces and integrates functions such as
ringing, digit detection and tone generation. The LIM board provides a classical
POTS interface towards the subscriber and performs the packetization of the voice
over RTP, sending the voice directly to the network as VoIP over Ethernet.

2 — ISAM-V
This is the analogue Z interface connecting to a telephone set. The main common
features are the following:
• Interfacing at subscribers side according to the POTS analogue Z interface:
• Line feeding
• Symmetrical programmable ringing
• Polarity reversal
• Programmable line impedance with echo cancellation
• Overvoltage protection
• Signaling events processing and communication with the server board according
to internal XLES protocol
• DTMF/pulse detection/processing
• Caller identification services (FSK, DTMF, on-off hook)
• Tone generation towards subscriber side
• Howler tone generation
• Tone generation towards network side (needed for ring-back tone)
• Metering pulses generation
• Ringing generation.
• Integrated line testing
• Coding (G.711 and either G.729 or G.723.1) and packetizing voice in RTP and
directly forwarding to/from packet network based on MAC/IP/UDP addresses
• Voice activity detection, comfort noise, packet loss concealment
• Near end echo cancellation
• Fax/modem detection/bypass
• Support of relay of DTMF and some fax/modem tones by means of RFC 2833
• Support for T.38
BALT/NBAT
The interface of the LIM board corresponds to the U reference point of the Digital
Transmission System as defined in G.961.
The interface provides full-duplex and bit independent transmission via two wires at
a net bit rate of 144 Kbit/s, a transparent 1 Kbit/s service channel and a 1 Kbit/s
maintenance channel for loops and error messages on subscriber lines, plus
synchronization bits.
Duplex transmission is achieved through the use of Echo Cancellation Hybrid. With
the Echo Cancellation Hybrid method, the Echo Canceller (EC) produces a replica
of the echo of the transmitted signal that is subtracted from the total received signal.
The echo is the result of imperfect balance of the hybrid and impedance
discontinuities in the line.
The 2B1Q encoding is applied; the symbol rate on the line is therefore 80 KBaud.
In the case of ISDN-BA over IP, the functionality is split between the BALT line
board and the IVPS board. The board supports 24 ISDN-BA user ports and
terminates Q.921 data links; IVPS establishes a SIGTRAN communication with the
MGC which enable the backhaul of Q.931 to MGC. The internal control protocol,
XLES, is enhanced to encapsulate and transport the Q.931 and other communication
needed between IVPS/NVPS and BALT/NBAT.

2 — ISAM-V
The functions are:

• Line Termination for the U interface of ISDN Basic Access ITU G.961
• G.711 (A, µ), G.729a/b, G.723.1 coding
• Local Echo cancellation (G.168, G.165, none) 16 ms. tail length
• Voice activity detection, comfort noise, packet loss concealment
• Configurable jitter buffer: adaptive or fixed size (per call)
• Automatic fax/modem detection and bypass (transparent fax and modem service)
• Enhanced end-to-end tone detection and generation (as per RFC 2833)
• Call progress tone generation: Dial Tone, Special (Information) Dial Tone, Ring
Back Tone, Congestion Tone, Busy Tone
• DTMF digit detection: when a call is in stable phase and the user sends DTMF
digits to, for example, an automatic Call Centre, the BALT/NBAT must detect the
DTMF.
• Integrated line testing
• Support for duplication of RTP streams for future Lawful Interception (LI)
implementation
• Regarding ISDN signaling:
• Termination of Q921 protocol (SABME,UA, RR,..., timers, states,...)
• BALT/NBAT establishes, releases and maintains data links with TEs as specified in
Q.921. For this, BALT/NBAT controls LAPD sequence numbers, maintain Q.921
state machines, etc. There is one established data link for each TEI.
• There is one data link established between BALT/NBAT and IVPS/NVPS. XLES
for POTS is transported inside that data link.
• Dynamic TEI assignment is done by BALT/NBAT
• The ASP (through IVPS) may command the removal of a particular TEI.
BALT/NBAT carries out this action and notifies it to IVPS/NVPS. Also, ASP may
ask for TEI status.
IVPS/NVPS Redundancy
IVPS/NVPS redundancy adopts the ISAM LSM 1+1 redundancy architecture, which
provides switchover logic interface and communication channel in backplane by
pairs. It protects against the HW failure/SW failure in case the redundant
IVPS/NVPS board is equipped.
IVPS/NVPS works in a active/stand-by redundancy scheme: regular checks and
information update is performed between the two IVPS/NVPS.
The 1+1 HW redundancy interface provides support for:
• Master/slave selection
• Communication channel for fast data communication
The standby card has the information needed to take the control of the VoIP service,
but the call state of the ports is not replicated. Therefore all calls are lost at
switchover time. This means that the static configuration data is synchronized to the
standby IVPS/NVPS, but the dynamic context/state is not synchronized to the
standby IVPS/NVPS. Before the standby IVPS/NVPS is switched to active, the
IVPS/NVPS IVPS must reload the applications and related configuration data.

2 — ISAM-V
IVPS switch over can be triggered in following cases:

• Fatal error (causes the restart) occurs on active IVPS: in this case, the error
handler triggers the switch over through HW DFF signal
• Active IVPS is pulled out/powered down: in these two cases, the switch over is
triggered by HW DFF signal
• Lock/Unplan/Restart the active IVPS
• Operator sends the switch over command to the active IVPS
When switching over, the previous standby IVPS will start its voice application (the
voice application is not initialized on the standby IVPS) and take over the voice
service.
The IVPS/NVPS becoming active will take the IP address of the previously active
IVPS/NVPS (in order to maintain the contact with the Call Server) but it will keep
its individual MAC address.
Note — IVPS redundancy is supported on IVPS-B and NVPS-A.
Not on IVPS-A
MEGACO
MEGACO ITU H.248.1 version 1 and H.248.1 version 2 are supported. The used
version of MEGACO is negotiated with the MGC. A CDE item for IVPS indicates
what version has to be answered to MGC. When the CDE item indicates
H248_version = 1, the IVPS has to “filter” the version 2 packages in the reply to an
Audit (Values, Capabilities) MGC request.
XDD Buffering is supported. Basically, this is to prevent loosing digits when, after
matching with a valid dialplan, the user still continues dialling. When digit buffering
is active, detected digits are kept in the IVPS in a buffer as a digit string until a timer
expires or a new matching with the current valid dialplan occurs.

2 — ISAM-V

The ISAM-V supports the following signalling and control:
• H248.34: stimulus analogue line package. Support of all stimal signals except
register recall, no_battery and a_wire_to_earth.

respectively.
• H.248.45: MGC information package
• the command O-Modify
• the command W-Subtract

Service Change Commands

Some events are triggered by the MG and some by the MGC. For the events
commended by the MGC, the MG ignores the event when it is not required for the
event to be supported by the MG.

command with SC method “disconnected” and SC reason “900” to the MGC in current control
association.
If the MGC fails to respond then (b) the MG sends a SC command with SC method “failover” and SC
reason 909 (MGC Impending Failure) to each MGC in its list in turn till it has successfully established
a new control association.
Only part (b) is supported.
(2) To place the MG OutOfService, the MGC sends a SC command with a SC method of “Forced” or
“Graceful”.
Only the “Forced” service change method is supported.

Fax over IP
ISAM-V supports Fax over IP (FoIP) according to the ITU-T T.38 recommendation.
This recommendation describes the procedures to be applied in the FoIP
transmission between two standard Group 3 facsimile terminals.
Call establishment for a PSTN or ISDN fax call is exactly the same as for a voice
call. The MGC audits the IVPS to know the T.38 fax capabilities of the
MediaGateway. In this case, the IVPS must reply according to T.38 specifications;
at XLES start-up, the POLTs/NPOTs send their T.38 capabilities to the IVPS/NVPS.
When passing to T.38 mode, the MGC/IVPS configures some T.38 parameters like
version, bitrate, … In this mode, the LTs process the data from a fax device, construct
and transmit the packets to the peer-end according to T.38 protocols (UDP-TL, IFP
(internet fax protocol)). In the downstream direction, the LTs process the T.38
packets from the peer and convert them into fax data which are sent to the attached
fax device.
The transport protocol used in ISAM-V for T.38 is UDP.

PSTN Line Testing
Overview
Line testing of user ports is part of a management activity which is performed by the
operator in order to diagnose failure or detect potential problems so as to bring the
customer access back to its normal state of operation whenever a deviation occurs.
Tests can be performed on a routine basis (mainly at night with scheduled facility)
or on demand (required by an operator command). The tests described in this
document are intended to test the terminal equipment and lines, which is called
outward test; and line circuits directly connected to subscribers, which is also called
inward test.
The architecture of PSTN line testing is illustrated in Figure 2-20.

Test requests are sent from the test platform (for example, 5530NA, 112 MD, and so
on). The ISAM-V is responsible for handling the test requests. This includes
verifying that the request is valid, setting up the test environment, performing the test
and providing the test results to the test platform. Once a test request has been
validated, the ISAM-V sets up the test environment including the possible changing
of states and/or related configuration.
Test requests indicate the test to be performed and may indicate the resource(s) to be
tested and the timeout period. The PSTN line testing is performed directly by SNMP
commands sent by the OS through the IVPS boards.
The involved elements outside the NE include:
• Subscriber analog terminal
Telephone set in subscriber assisted tests such as Pulse/ DTMF dialling, etc.
• Network termination
Indicating termination for digital ISDN BA lines.

2 — ISAM-V
In order to avoid conflicts between intrusive testing and normal working of the
resources, the Line Testing functionality makes use of blocking mechanisms: a test
command is always rejected if the line is busy and, when accepted, the Media
Gateway has to inform the Call Server to block the line.
To evaluate whether a test is passed or failed, a predefined threshold value is used.
These predefined threshold values are defined in the CDE file. If the threshold value
needs to be updated from a specified line test, this can be implemented by the line
test management system.
Note: The test platform 112MD has it's own threshold judgement.
After the completion of that test, the predefined thresholds are restored.
Integrated Line Testing Items

Note: Only line testing of POTS line terminations can be tested.
The following test can be performed:
• Electrical measurement test:
The purpose of these tests is the measurement of electrical parameters. These tests
do not require customer assistance. Any or all of these tests can be invoked in the
same test request for a given user port. Electrical measurement tests are:
• Foreign voltage (AC/DC): This test is measuring foreign voltage between wires.
• Capacitance: This test is measuring capacitance between wires.
• Insulating resistance: This test is measuring insulating resistance between wires.
• Impedance: This test is measuring the impedance between wires.
• Termination (M Socket detection): This test is to detect whether a phone or just a
resistance connects the line.
• Feeding voltage: This test is performed measuring voltage over wires in open circuit
and verifying voltage remains within thresholds.
• Feeding current: This test is performed connecting a resistor loading the wires and
measuring the current in limiting mode.
• Noise level: This test is to detect abnormal noise level, e.g. crosstalk
• Group test:
This test consists of a combination of predefined electrical measurements
requested by the OS as previous electrical measurement tests. It includes a
combination of voltage, capacitance and insulating resistance measurements.
Thirteen possible measurements are:
• AC Foreign voltage: a/Earth, b/Earth and a/b
• DC Foreign voltage: a/Earth, b/Earth and a/b
• Capacitance: a/Earth with b grounded, b/Earth with a grounded and a/b
• Insulation resistance: a/Earth with b grounded, b/Earth with a grounded, a/b and b/a
• Dial tone test:
This test checks the ability of the line circuit to detect an off-hook and to check
the provision of the dial tone from the MGC.
An off-hook condition is simulated in the NE. This off-hook must be detected by
the line circuit and is further processed by call-handling software; the MGC will
then interpret it as a real off-hook and will send a dial tone. The time is measured
and compared with a predefined threshold. Returned result is the delay to dial
tone.

2 — ISAM-V
• Howler tone test

This test lets the user know that the mike is not hooked on correctly and restores
the user state from parking to idle after the user hooks on the mike. If the user does
not hook on the mike, the howler tone is stopped after a predefined timeout. The
howler tone level and frequency depend on different countries’ specifications.
• Status monitor
This test lets the operator know the indicated user’s status.

• Y-MS (Convedia Server) is controlled by A5020 and packet replication is
implemented here (Y functionality), generate CC and deliver to A1357 system
• The AGW (ISAM-V) are able to identify the target's bi-directional streams, based
on routing and service information from the control system (MGC), and to route
the media stream to the Y-GW, where the copy function for LI purposes is
performed. LI is transparent to AGW in A1357 system.
The ISAM-V sends to/receives from Y-MS with intercepted traffic under the control
of MGC. So from the view of ISAM-V, Y-MS just acts as a normal call connection
termination. The signaling between MGC and ISAM-V is the standard call signaling
(MEGACO). The requirement of the signaling process is the same as for a normal
POTS call. There is no signaling interface between Y-MS and ISAM-V, the traffic
between Y-MS and ISAM-V is set up by the MGC. Y-MW does the packet
replication. ISAM-V does not need to implement packet replication function, i.e. LI
is transparent to ISAM-V. ISAM-V does not need any modification for LI when
working with A1357 system

3.2 7302 ISAM System Initialization
General
This section describes the initialization of the 7302 ISAM.
After the SHub subsystem and the Intelligent Access termination, Control and
Management (IACM) subsystem are powered up, the boot sequence starts for each
subsystem.

SHub Subsystem Initialization

While booting, the SHub subsystem retrieves all necessary parameters from memory
or from pre-configured defaults. A pre-defined OAM VLAN with VLAN ID
(IC-VLAN= 4094) is fixed and cannot be used in the connected network because the
value 4094 is reserved and may not be used externally. This internal OAM VLAN is
also pre-defined in the NT-LT initialisation. This VLAN is used for the software
download to the LTs and the configuration of the LTs.
If a configuration database was saved, and the SHub subsystem was set to restore this
configuration before the last system down, the SHub subsystem will retrieve this
configuration.
The SHub subsystem is now operational.
For more information, refer to the Operations and Maintenance Using CLI.
IACM Subsystem Initialization

Since the NT board is the system manager, it has the control over the system
initialization phases of the IACM subsystem and is responsible for the sequencing of
the initialization phases of the NT board and the rest of the 7302 ISAM. This is in
contrast to the SHub subsystem which is initialized independently. The initialization
of the LTs and the SHub subsystem happen parallel. However as long as the SHub
subsystem is not up, the NT will not establish communication with the LTs. The NT
software can check if the SHub subsystem is alive.
The IACM subsystem initialization consists of the following phases:
• Local NT initialization
• System initialization
• Enable external 7302 ISAM management
Local NT Initialization
The following phases are identified for the local NT initialization:
• Boot phase
• Overall SoftWare (OSW) startup
• Initialization phase
• Restore data from non-volatile memory
In this phase, the LT boards boot and wait for the NT board to get their OSW.
System Initialization
In the first phase of the system initialization, the NT board detects the LT boards, the
ACU and the appliques (HW) and downloads the appropriate SW to the LT boards.
The LT boards start up with their SW and perform their specific initialisations.
After these initialisations, each LIM board sends a signal to the NT board. The
second phase of the system initialization begins when the NT board receives this
signal. Now the NT board configures each LT board.

Enable External 7302 ISAM Management

When the LT boards are configured, the 7302 ISAM management is enabled on the
NT board and the 7302 ISAM indicates that the initialization is fully complete and
the system is operational.
Note — For more information about the initialization and startup of

the 7302 ISAM please refer to the Operations and Maintenance
Using CLI.

The NT Controller and the SHub subsystem each contain a separate SNMP agent.
The NT Controller / LIMs and the SHub subsystem can be managed via an Element
Management Station (EMS), such as the Alcatel-Lucent 5523 AWS or the
Alcatel-Lucent 5526 AMS.
Note — If the 7302 ISAM is configured to have only one public IP

address, then the direct SNMP management interface to the SHub is
no longer available. The SHub will then be managed through the
SNMP interface of the NT.
It is also possible to use local TL1 or CLI craft terminal on the NT board to manage
the LTs.
An integrated CLI approach is implemented on the NT board using an CLI agent.
This agent implements CLI commands for the NT Controller / LIMs and the SHub
subsystem. However, there is no semantical integration.
Table 3-1 shows an overview of the managers which are involved.

Note — External OAM VLAN
The SHub subsystem supports in-band management. This happens

through a dedicated VLAN, which must be configured (if different
than 4043) on both the SHub subsystem as on the NT.

4.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the different ISAM subrack types supported for the European
Telecommunication Standard Institute (ETSI) market. For each subrack, the
following characteristics are described:
• Subrack dimensions
• Physical areas
• Slot positions
• Supported plug-in units (per release).
4.2 General
The modular organization of the ISAM system allows a wide range of physical size
and traffic capacity options.
The basic building blocks of the ISAM system are the subracks or shelves(*).
(*): Both names are used for the same item.
The ISAM R3.x is a one-subrack system. Daisy-chaining multiple subracks via

Extender boards is not supported.
It is possible to cascade multiple collocated subracks via the standard Fast Ethernet
(FE)/Gigabit Ethernet (GE) subtending links. In such a configuration, each subrack
will operate and be managed as a separate system.

and connectors for power and other interface connection and space for cable
routing.
• The Fan area below the LT area is 50 mm high and can house a separate fan unit.

4 — Subracks
Board Types
The XD splitterless subrack can accommodate the following units (Figure 4-2):
• one Alarm Control Unit (ACU) plug-in board
• two Network Termination (NT) boards
• up to 16 LIMs:
Splitters for the xDSL LIMs can not be mounted in the XD splitterless subrack
and will be put in a separate subrack.
• one NT I/O applique:
This applique is a full size board which plugs into both NT I/O connectors,
located high in the DSL cabling area of the subrack.
• one SMAS board:
This small board serves as a subrack identification resource. The SMAS stores the
system MAC addresses and ISAM ID (based on boardserialId). It is plugged into
the backplane and is delivered as an integral part of the subrack.
Note 1 — No PWR I/O board is developed for the XD splitterless

subrack. The power connectors are available in the connector area.
Note 2 — No specific Termination Plugs are supported for R3.4.
Restrictions
The following restrictions apply:
• The XD splitterless subrack is not equipped with a TEST/SPARE bus. When the
1:N LT redundancy and/or MTA functionality needs to be supported, the
necessary provisions need to be available in the connected splitter device (refer
to section 4.1.2).
• The XD splitterless subrack will not be ready to support 72-line boards.
1+1 NT Redundancy
NT redundancy is supported on the following boards:
• ECNT-A
• ECNT-C CB
1+1 LIM Redundancy

The backpanel is already provisioned to support the 1+1 LIM redundancy. The
necessary will have to be mounted in the splitter subrack (XD-SP) since appliques
cannot be mounted in the XD splitterless subrack itself.
1+1 LIM redundancy is not a supported R3.x feature.

4 — Subracks
1:N LIM Redundancy

The 1:N redundancy of the LIMs is not supported in the XD splitterless subrack itself
since no TEST/SPARE bus is available. When this functionality is required, the
necessary provisions need to be available in the connected splitter device.
1:N LIM redundancy is not a supported R3.x feature.

4.5 XD Splitter Subrack without MTA
The XD-LT subrack is splitterless. Therefore, the splitter appliques for the LT boards
need to be housed in a separate subrack. The XD splitter subrack without MTA
(XD-PSP) is a cost-improved version of the XD-SP subrack. The main
characteristics of this subrack type are:
• The subrack has no backplane (no MTA support, no LT redundancy support).
• The subrack can house up to 16 splitter boards, one per equipped LIM in the
XD-LT subrack. Each board is able to handle 48 lines.
• The subrack is mountable in the existing ETS rack frame of an XD Modular
system (above the XD splitterless subrack) or in a standard 19” rack. By
re-orienting the mounting brackets, the subrack can be mounted in frames.
The XD-PSP subrack is supported from R2.2 on.
Mnemonic
The mnemonic is ADSL SPlitter Subrack version C (ASPS-C).

Board Types
The 7302 FD subrack can accommodate the following units:
• NT I/O boards: If not used, this slot can be occupied with LT17.
In the backpanel, there is a provision to equip a maximum of 8 uplinks on the
NT I/O. These 8 uplinks can be either 8 x 1 Gbps Ethernet or 2 x 10 Gbps
Ethernet. On the NT I/O, these uplinks are multiplexed between the 2 NTs on NT
active/standby state.
As an option, the NT I/O can be provided in a redundant way. In that case, the NT
I/O slot is equipped with an NT I/O-motherboard, with 2 NT I/O-mezzanine
boards inserted.
• NT boards: If the redundant NT is not used, this slot can be occupied with LT18,
with an additional EMC plate (5mm).
• LT boards:
16 LTs can be accommodated in splitterless mode. In Combo mode, the LTs must
be equipped in the odd positions with their corresponding splitter in the even
position. This reduces the line capacity with 50%.
HW ready for ADSL2+, SHDSL, VDSL/2 and Ethernet LT.
• Appliques:
Splitters for the xDSL LIMs can be mounted in the 7302 FD subrack in the even
slot positions. The LTs need to be put in the odd slot positions. The connection
between the LT and the correlating splitter is done via the front with a 48 pairs
connector and cable.
At the front of the splitter, there is the 48 pairs connector and cable towards the
PSTN exchange. In this configuration, there is no MTA on the splitters.
1+1 NT Redundancy
When a NT 1+1 redundant configuration is to be deployed, an NT I/O board needs
to be inserted in the subrack. The NT I/O board performs NT board protection
switching for uplinks from the 2 NT boards: only the uplinks from the active NT are
connected to the external up-link interfaces.
1+1 LIM Redundancy

For dual slot applications (for example, 96 line dual slot board), traffic interfaces are
provided between 2 neighboring LTs: 2 differential pairs (100 Ohm). For
inter-processor communication (like HIPC), the following interfaces are provided
between 2 neighboring LTs: 2 differential pairs (100 Ohm). For redundant operation
of 2 LTs, the following interfaces are provided between 2 neighboring LTs:
• Local LT state, Peer LT state
• Local LT presence, Peer LT presence
1:N LIM Redundancy

The 1:N redundancy of the LIMs is not supported in the 7302 FD subrack itself since
no TEST/SPARE bus is available. When this functionality is required, the necessary
provisions need to be available in the connected splitter device.

6.6 UD-Combo Rack Configurations 6-12

6.1 Introduction
This chapter describes the possible rack configurations for the 7302 ISAM.
6.2 Rack Configurations
The following applies for rack configurations:

• An XD Modular rack contains only XD-LTs, XD-SP and/or XD-PSP subracks.
• A XD-Combo300 rack contains only XD-Combo300 subracks.
• An UD-Combo rack contains only UD-Combo subracks.
ISAM Location
The described ISAM configurations can be installed in various locations:
conventional CO, CEV or remote cabinets.
Note — The XD-Combo300 configuration can only be installed in a

CO location.
Subrack Type Identification

The subrack type is defined by four bits identifying the BackPlane TYPe (BP-TYP)
and four bits identifying the NT SLOT_ID (bits 4 to 1). This Physical Location
IDentification (PLID) and the NT SLOT_ID are hardcoded. Table 6-1 gives an
overview.
Table 6-1 BackPlane TYPe (BP-TYP) and SLOT_ID Setting

XD-SP ETSI 1111 1 1 1 1
XD-Combo300 1110 0 0 0 0
UD-Combo 1111 1 0 1 0
Equipment Practice
The equipment practice applied is defined by Rack TYPe (R-TYP) identification
bits. This PLID setting is done with jumpers on the backplane and can be checked by
software. Table 6-2 gives an overview.

breakers)
• Termination of the alarm cable from each subrack
• A termination point for the CO/CEV alarm cable and the rack alarm cable
• An ADSL Top Rack Unit (ATRU) board with alarms displaying power alarm
conditions.
• Power cables for two subracks, even if the rack contains only one subrack (this is
to avoid difficulties when adding cables at rack upgrade)
• One or two XD-LT subracks or one XD-LT and one XD-SP or one XD-LT and one
XD-PSP, equipped with plug-in units (see “Subracks - Configurations”)
• An ADSL FAN (AFAN) unit (one per equipped subrack) with eight fans
providing equipment cooling and (optionally) equipped with a dustfilter(*).
• One ACU cable per equipped XD-LT subrack.
Note — (*): Only the subrack in the lower position is equipped with a
fan unit with dustfilter, the subrack in the upper position is equipped
with a fan unit without dustfilter (refer to Table 6-3).

6.6 UD-Combo Rack Configurations
General Configuration
A UD-Combo rack contains:
• A 1800 or 2200 mm rack cabinet
• A TRU providing:
• Power input block for connection of CO supply cables and distribution to one or two
subracks and accompanying fan units
• Depending on the type of powering, Circuit Breakers (CB) for rack or subrack
powering, switches for subrack powering or no protection devices for fixed subrack
powering.
• Interface to CO/CEV alarm system
• Alarm interface to equipment inside the rack
• LED display indicating rack alarm conditions.
• Power cables for two subracks, even if the rack contains only one subrack (this is
to avoid difficulties when adding cables at rack upgrade)
• One or two subrack, depending on the rack height.
• One Alarm Control Unit (ACU), located in the upper subrack and performing
rack alarm and control functions. When this subrack is the first of the NE, the
ACU also provides local Craft Interface. Note: a rack with more than one
Network Element (NE) has more than one ACU, the first subrack of each NE has
its own ACU.
• An ADSL FAN (AFAN) unit (one per equipped subrack) with eight fans
providing equipment cooling and (optionally) equipped with a dust filter.
Note — Only the subrack in the lower position is equipped with a fan
unit with dust filter, the subrack in the upper position is equipped with
a fan unit without dust filter (refer to Table 6-3).
Rack Configurations
Each ADSL Line Termination Rack (ALTR) configuration is defined by a FEMA
mnemonic and code.
• Table 6-12 gives an overview of the possible UD-Combo 1800 mm rack
configurations.
• Table 6-13 gives an overview of the FEMA mnemonics and code for the possible

7.4 Fiber Handling Restrictions
Due to some fibre handling and routing issues, some limitation apply on the number
of fibres that can be supported by a given subrack type. Two types of fiber are
considered:
• Standard fibre: Ø 3 mm
• Thin fibre: Ø 1.3 mm
The following fiber handling restrictions apply:

No LT boards are supported with optical interfaces, fiber handling does not pose any
practical restrictions for the LTs.
For fibers directly connected to the NTs (where each NT supports three Small Form
Pluggable (SFP) fiber interfaces), the following applies:
• SFPs with thin fibers (thin fibre cross-section = 1.3mm):
On the NT slots, a maximum of 16 thin fibers or 8 per NT can be wired. So no
restrictions to support the maximum of 2 NT x 3SFPS/NT x 2 fibers per SFP = 12
thin fibers
• SFPs with standard fibers (standard fibre cross-section = 3 mm):
The limit of 4 standard fibers that can be wired for the sum of the 2 NT slots gives
a restriction: that is, maximum 2 SFPs with standard fiber for the sum of 2 NTs.
Small Form Pluggables

The supported Small Form Pluggable (SFP) modules are listed in Table 7-2.

7.5 1+1 NT Redundancy Support
The NT Redundancy feature is supported from R2.2 onwards.

Four levels of redundancy can be identified:
• Link redundancy
• Equipment redundancy
• Subscriber Line redundancy
• Application redundancy
NT redundancy will implement the Link Redundancy and Equipment Redundancy

in a decoupled architecture. This results in the following redundancy cases:
• Only link protection:
single NT, active-standby or load-sharing uplinks.
• Combined NT and link protection, no NTIO:
dual active/standby NT, with direct uplink or link set.
• Decoupled NT and link protection, single NTIO:
dual active/standby NT, NTIO board with link switches.
• NT protection, passive link protection, no NTIO:
single, active-standby or load sharing uplinks.
• Subtending System protection.

7.6 MTA and 1:N LT Redundancy Support
This section describes which hardware modules are required to support the various
MTA functions and 1:N LT Redundancy.
The current release of the 7302 ISAM does not support 1:N LT redundancy. The
remainder of this section will therefore focus on MTA.
The 7302 ISAM system provides an integrated Metallic Test Access Unit (MTAU)
function. Both limited test-access (no test and split access) and Full test-access (no
test, loopback, monitor and split access) are supported in the current release of the
7302 ISAM.
The following modules are required to implement the MTA function:
• NT I/O board: to provide the (hardened) interface for communication between the
NT and the Test I/O applique in the splitter subrack (TAUS unit). The following
NT I/O boards support this functionality:
• ECNC-A
• ECNC-B
• ECNC-C
• NCNC-B
• NCNC-D
• Test I/O applique (TAUS) in the splitter subrack: to provide the interface to the
test head and manage the Relay Controllers on the LT appliques. The following
Test I/O board types support this functionality: TAUS-A.
• The Test/Spare bus to provide (test or protection) access to a selected line.
This spare bus is implemented on the backpanel of the XD-SP subrack.
• LT appliques in the splitter subrack, that contain the relays to set up the proper
data paths.
Table 7-4 shows for all supported LT appliques in how far MTA (SW and HW
functionality) and 1:N redundancy (HW functionality only) is supported.
Splitters supporting only outward test-access are equipped with only 1 relay per line,
while splitters supporting both inward and outward test-access have 2 relays per line.

Note — In case of the XD-Combo 300 subrack, the subrack is HW
