Network Descriptionl Voice service

After passing the ONT, the VoIP packets reach the MA5603T. The MA5603T thentransmits the packets to the IMS network, or to the PSTN network through an MG.

l Data serviceThe PCs are connected to the MA5603T through the ONTs. The PCs are then connectedto the IP network through the BRAS.

l Video service

The video traffic is sent to the ONTs in the IPTV or cable television (CATV) mode.

– IPTV

In the IPTV mode, the video service is delivered over IP multicast traffic, supplyingusers with various programs.

The MA5603T manages the multicast user rights and programs based on IGMP proxyand controllable multicast. After the users have passed the authentication, theMA5603T transmits the IGMP protocol packets to the device at the aggregation layer.

The multicast server transmits the video traffic to the MA5603T through the backbonenetwork and the convergence network. The MA5603T forwards the traffic to the userterminals based on the authentication results.

At the user end, the STB terminates video signals, performs media conversion, andcontrols program switching.

– CATV

In the CATV mode, traditional analogue signals of TV programs are transmitted overthe twisted pairs.

Through the electrical-to-optical conversion, video streams are converted intodownstream optical waves, and then superposed with downstream optical waves of theGPON in the wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) mode. The superposed wavesare transmitted to the ONT in the downstream direction through an optical fiber. Thenthe ONT separates the video signals from the waves, and sends the signals to the TV.In this way, the video service is realized.

4.1.2 Mobile Bearer Network ApplicationThe MA5603T supports the mobile bearer network application, which converges the fixednetwork and mobile network on the bearer plane, helps save the CAPEX and OPEX, andimplements the evolution of IP-based network.

Service Description

To address the growing number of mobile users and increasing demand for the mobile data andvideo services, 3G mobile stations need to be increased to provide high bandwidth.

Compared with the SDH/ATM private line technologies, the IP return transmission technologynot only offers an easy return transmission solution for base stations, but also helps to greatlysave the cost for base station return transmission.

In the mobile bearer network application, the IP-based return transmission technology is adoptedas a replacement of the TDM-based or ATM-based return transmission technology to realizeintegration of fixed and mobile networks at the bearer layer. In this way, the need to maintainonly one network helps to reduce the CapEx and OpEx, thus facilitating evolution to an all-IPnetwork.

Network Topology

Network DescriptionThe mobile bearer network application features the following:l The base station adopts distributed mode, and provides IP ports and E1 ports.

– The base station adopts distributed mode. The data service is sent upstream through theIP ports.

– The data service requires high bandwidth. Hence, the base station adopts IP ports fordata service transmission, thus improving the bandwidth utilization for the upstreamdata service.

– The IP ports support data access.

l The E1 ports provided by the base station support return transmission through PWE3.– For the large number of legacy base stations and the base stations that are presently

under construction, IP uplink connection is not adopted, and only E1 ports are used.– The E1 ports must support PWE3 to facilitate service bearing over an IP network.

The MA5603T obtains the clock information from the BITS, and sends the clock informationto the downstream mobile base stations through the ONT. In this way, clock synchronization is

4.2 Service FeaturesThe MA5603T supports network applications such as MSTP network application, QinQ networkapplication, VLAN stacking and Triple play network application.


Product Description


Issue 02 (2010-01-28)

4.2.1 MSTP Network ApplicationThe MA5603T supports the MSTP network application, providing redundant links with a betterload balancing function, which is applicable to all the networks with the service protectionrequirement.

4.2.2 QinQ ApplicationThe MA5603T supports the QinQ network application. This application saves the public VLANID resources and implements the transparent transmission of private VLANs to the publicnetwork.

4.2.3 VLAN Stacking ApplicationThe MA5603T supports VLAN stacking network application to implement the VLAN extendedservice and multi-ISP wholesale service.

4.2.4 Triple Play ApplicationThe powerful service processing capability of the MA5603T helps provide voice, data, and videoservices to users simultaneously with guaranteed QoS.

4.2.1 MSTP Network ApplicationThe MA5603T supports the MSTP network application, providing redundant links with a betterload balancing function, which is applicable to all the networks with the service protectionrequirement.

Service DescriptionThe Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) is compatible with the Spanning Tree Protocol(STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP). In addition, MSTP can remedy the drawbackof STP and RSTP. MSTP supports quick booting, and can also provide enhanced load balancingfunction for redundant links.

Network DescriptionThe MA5603Ts form an MSTP network, which meets the service-protection requirement, savesthe optical fiber resources, and configures the spanning tree instance based on the VLAN toimplement load balancing for upstream ports.

Because an MSTP network requires switchover time and has limitations on the number of MACaddresses, it is not recommended to build an MSTP network at major nodes where there are alarge number of users.

4.2.2 QinQ ApplicationThe MA5603T supports the QinQ network application. This application saves the public VLANID resources and implements the transparent transmission of private VLANs to the publicnetwork.

Service DescriptionThe 802.1q in 802.1q (QinQ) application supports allocation of public VLAN IDs to user packetsthat have VLAN tags so that the packets can be transmitted in the backbone network using the

Network DescriptionIn the QinQ application, the user packets transmitted in the backbone network have two layersof VLAN tags: a public VLAN tag and a private VLAN tag.

l On the user sideThe enterprise users are connected to the MA5603T through the ONT and the traffic isdelivered in the VLAN mode. The users of VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 are connected to theMA5603T. The MA5603T allocates a public VLAN ID (VLAN 3 with the QinQ attribute)to the packets, and forwards the packets to the upper layer network.

l On the network sideIn the backbone network, the packets are transmitted based on the public VLAN ID. Afterthe packets reach the MA5603T on the other side of the backbone network, theMA5603T removes the public VLAN tag from the packets, and passes the packets to theuser side device.

In the QinQ application, the transparent transmission of the private VLAN in the public networkis supported and public VLAN ID resources are saved. A simple two-layer virtual privatenetwork (VPN) channel is provided to realize the function of transparent transmission of privateVLANs and services to the peer end and to expand the private network.

4.2.3 VLAN Stacking ApplicationThe MA5603T supports VLAN stacking network application to implement the VLAN extendedservice and multi-ISP wholesale service.

Service Descriptionl VLAN extension: This is used to increase the number of VLANs and identify users.l Multi-ISP wholesale service: The upper layer network works in L2 working mode and the

packets are directly transmitted based on the VLAN and the MAC address.

VLAN stacking is similar to QinQ in implementation, but the user packet of VLAN stacking isencapsulated with two VLAN tags and the user packet of QinQ is encapsulated with one VLANtag.

and then transmitted to the associated ISP based on the outer VLAN tag. The user is identifiedby the inner VLAN tag.

The VLAN stacking application ensures that the VLANs can be reused, and realizes the multi-IPS wholesale service.

4.2.4 Triple Play ApplicationThe powerful service processing capability of the MA5603T helps provide voice, data, and videoservices to users simultaneously with guaranteed QoS.

Service DescriptionThe MA5600T supports the following triple play solutions:l Triple play solution through multiple GEM ports

Different GEM ports are used to differentiate different traffic streams.Different traffic streams are mapped to different GEM ports according to the VLAN ID,802.1p, or physical port, and then sent to the MA5600T for processing.

l Triple play solution through a single GEM portsThe MA5600T differentiates the service streams according to the Ethernet type of the user-side packet, VLAN ID at the user side, and 802.1p domain at the user side, and then controlthe traffic streams.The current ONT need not be re-configured, which saves the GEM port resource.
