Linkcom 2000 - IntroductionLinkcom 2000 - Introduction

• DCME (Digital Circuit Multiplication Equipment)

• Point-to-Point link voice compression equipment

• Multiplex up to 12 xE1/T1’s trunks into a single E1/T1 bearer

• Interfaces to standard switches, PBX and satellite modems

• For use with all forms of bearer circuits: satellite, wireless, terrestrial

• Toll quality voice

• Fax and data bypass

• Comprehensive built-in redundancy features


– 360 channels using G.729 voice compression– 1:N and 1:1 built-in redundancy– 128ms tail, G.168 echo canceller– 8 Kbps (G.729,G729b) voice compression– 14.4 V.32bis Data and V.17 Fax (V.34 & V.90 supported in

a 64K DS0 clear channel)– Remote code download, monitoring, and diagnostics– Both ITU and background sampled comfort noise

generation– Facility to pass IP traffic over bearer

System OverviewSystem Overview


• Switch Interface Requirements– Up to 12 x E1/T1 circuits presented from switch on G.703 interfaces– Telephony traffic must be in original 64Kbps per channel PCM format– ITU Group III Fax bypass – V.17, V.21, V.27ter, V.29– Data bypass – V.22, V.22bis, V.32, V.32bis

Linkcom Suitable ApplicationsLinkcom Suitable Applications

• Bearer Interface Requirements– Single full or fractional E1/T1 output from Linkcom on G.703 interface to bearer link.

• Link Requirements– Must be a logical or physical permanent point-to-point circuit– Any form of bearer link suitable including satellite, terrestrial, microwave and fibre– Linkcom work in dedicated pairs over the link. Traffic presented to local Linkcom will be

outputted on the corresponding outputs at the far end Linkcom– Linkcom is transparent to the switches

Digital Circuit Multiplication Equipment (DCME)HARDWARE OVERVIEW


Linkcom Hardware OverviewLinkcom Hardware Overview

• Compact PCI Chassis– Industry’s most compact 360 channel unit (4U high)– Compact PCI with telecom standard H.110 TDM backplane– Dimensions 7”H x 19”W x 12”D


Linkcom Hardware Overview ContinuedLinkcom Hardware Overview Continued

• Fan Tray– System operating temperature: 0 to 50 Degrees C– System operating humidity: 95% non-condensing



• Power Supplies– Universal power supplies 85–264V AC Input, 47-440Hz (Optional 36-72 DC Input)– Hot swappable– Full (1:1) redundancy (current sharing) fitted as standard



• Host Processor / Bearer Module – Single Host Processor module per unit, which always occupies Slot 1 in chassis– Provides M&C for unit plus master download FLASH storage for firmware– Controls redundancy switchover of optional 1:N TCEC module or 1:1 redundant chassis– Controls hot swap capability– Bearer interface G.703 E1/T1 120/75/100 Ohm firmware selectable– 10/100 Base-T Ethernet interface for NMS (optional) connectivity or IP traffic “tunneling”– Local control via RS-232 or Telnet interface



• TCEC (Trunk Compression & Echo Canceller) Module – 2x E1/T1 (firmware selectable) interfaces per module– 60 channels of voice compression, fax and data– 60 channels of 128mS Echo Cancellation– Signaling pass-thru support (R1, R2, R2D, CAS) – 1 to 6 TCEC modules (occupying slots 2-7) can be installed providing 2, 4, 6, 8, 10

or 12 E1/T1 inputs per chassis



• Redundant TCEC (Trunk Compression & Echo Canceller) Module – Optional extra TCEC module fitted in Slot 8 (same module as standard TCEC module)– Provides 1:N protection against failure of any other TCEC module– Calls in progress transferred automatically from failed card to redundant TCEC module– Failed module can then be replaced (hot swappable) with no effect to service

• System Redundancy (1:1)– Two identical chassis are used, one ‘On-line Master’ - the other ‘Standby Slave’

On-line Master Standby Slave

– Master and Slave monitor each other with elaborate voting algorithm and Master will yield control or Slave will seize control depending on failure conditions

– Failure of power supply will result in automatic switchover– Removal of card assembly will result in automatic switchover

Digital Circuit Multiplication Equipment (DCME)COMPRESSION CAPABILITIES & FUNCTIONALITY

Digital Circuit Multiplication Equipment (DCME)COMPRESSION CAPABILITIES & FUNCTIONALITY


• G.279 8Kb fixed rate compression– 8Kb voice compression using CS-ACELP– Compression ratio fixed at 8:1– High quality speech with MOS (Mean Opinion Score) of 4.0

Compression CapabilitiesCompression Capabilities

• G.279b 8Kb with VAD variable bit rate compression– 8Kb voice compression using CS-ACELP– Compression ratio dynamically variable from 8:1 up to 20:1 per channel– Typical aggregate compression ratio between 12:1 and 16:1 achieved across all channels– Only speech content of conversation encoded and transmitted by using VAD– VAD:- Voice Activation Detection (aka silence suppression) - extracts silence from conversations

dramatically reducing bandwidth consumption of channel– High quality speech with MOS (Mean Opinion Score) of 4.0


• Signaling– Signaling Pass Thru for ITU Number 5, 6, 7 and R2D– Other signaling supported via clear 64Kb DS0 channel assigned across bearer

FunctionalityFunctionality
