1.2 Next Generation SDH

For almost two decades, Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) has been the preferred transport technology over optical fibers. SDH is the dominant transport protocol in virtually all long-haul networks (voice and data) as well as in metro networks that were originally developed for voice traffic. As a resilient, well-understood transport mechanism, SDH has stood the test of time. Its reliability is unsurpassed. The ability of SDH to support 50-msec switching to backup paths, combined with extensive performance monitoring features for carrier-class transport. Legacy SDH was designed mainly to transport circuit oriented services like voice and as such is an inherently rigid and inefficient method for transporting data. Traditionally a single wire speed Gigabit Ethernet service (1.25G) will be allocated to one STM-16 channel (2.5G). This means 48 % of the of this STM-16 pipe remains as idle capacity.

Figure 1: Future Traffic Growth

The phenomenal growth in bandwidth, connectivity and content generated by the Internet, Intranet and broadband applications, has made native data transfer a very important criteria for telecommunication infrastructure (see Figure 1). Ethernet has become the de facto standard for enterprise networks. In Storage Area Networks (SAN) ESCONTM, FICONTM and Fiber Channel are by far todays most dominating technology as well. The solution is Next Generation SDH technology that transforms rigid, circuit-oriented SDH networks to a universal transport mechanism that is optimized for both voice and data. The technology enables carriers to keep up with growing demands for bandwidth, to efficiently carry both streaming and bursty traffic, and adapt to constantly changing traffic patterns. Multiple protocols and thus services are supported: from basic TDM voice, Ethernet, as well as SAN.

1.3 SURPASS hiT 70 series

Siemens has introduced a new range of equipment that makes the promise of Next Generation SDH a reality: the SURPASS hiT 70 series. This platform provides the flexibility of true packet switching and Ethernet transport, while operating with the inherent reliability of SDH. Multiple network applications are integrated and consolidated into a single compact unit. The efficiency of this approach, together with extensive use of highly integrated components allows the SURPASS hiT 70 series to be offered at lower costs than current solutions.

2.2 SDH Capabilities

SURPASS hiT 7020 provides bidirectional / unidirectional MSP(1+1) on STM-4 and STM-1 interfaces

SURPASS hiT 7020 provides 2 fiber MS-SPRing on STM-4 interfaces SURPASS hiT 7020 provides bidirectional / unidirectional SNCP at VC-

12/4 levels

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports GFP-FITU-T G.7041/Y.1303encapsulation for Ethernet data.

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports VC-12-Xv virtual concatenationITU-T G.707/Y.1322

It is possible to use any of the clock inputs as a primary or secondary timing source. You can identify up to four timing references, which can be prioritized to provide protection.

14/61




2.3 Advanced Data Service Support

SURPASS hiT 7020 includes the following features supporting transport of data frames:

(1) GFP encapsulation (2) VCat (3) LCAS (4) Input rate limiting (5) support of VLAN acc. to IEEE 802.1Q (6) support of CoS through changing priority (7) RSTP (8) Layer 2 switching / multicast

2.3.1 GFP Data Encapsulation

SURPASS hiT 7020 incorporates advanced Generic Framing Procedure (GFP-F) (G.7041/Y.1303) mapping scheme to encapsulate Ethernet traffic into SDH payloads. GFP encapsulated data is then mapped into SDH payloads using Virtual Concatenation techniques acc. to ITU-T standard G.707/Y.1322. This process provides the most efficient mapping of packets and the greatest bandwidth efficiency within the network. GFP mapping can be viewed as a multi-service encapsulation method, which strips out unnecessary legacy mappings of SDH to provide a standardised thin Layer 1 capability that supports a wide range of client-service protocols.

2.3.2 Virtual Concatenation VCat

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports VC-12-Xv. VCat provides fine-tuned SDH pipes to match the needs of packet and to boost carriers traffic-handling scalability and efficiency. The system can accommodate up to 16 ms delay deference between the fastest VC-12 member and the slowest VC-12 member, respectively.

2.3.3 Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme LCAS

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports dynamic adjustment of the size of virtually concatenated groups of channels by the standardized LCAS process. VCat and LCAS in combination provide soft protection schemes.

15/61




2.3.4 Input Rate Limiting

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports Input Rate Limiting per LAN port. Input Rate Limiting allows to control the maximum bandwidth per port an end user can obtain from the network. The Range is from 64kbps to 100Mbps, in step of 64kpbs between 64kpbs and 2Mbps (including 2Mbps), step is 1M between 2Mbps and 100Mpbs,default is full rate. Input Rate Limiting is supported for L2 cards / function.

2.3.5 Support of VLANs acc. to IEEE 802.1Q

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports VLANs acc. to IEEE Standard 802.1Q. At the ingress side, each port can be set either to accept both VLAN-tagged and untagged frames, or to accept only VLAN-tagged frames, depending on the application requirements. Additionally, a VLAN tag can be assigned to untagged incoming frames in order to assign such frames to an existing VLAN within the network, or untagged frames will be assigned the predefined VLAN-ID (PVID) according to their Class of Service (CoS) settings. At the egress side, each port can be set to remove VLAN tags arriving from the network or keep the VLAN tags unattended.

2.3.6 Support of Class of Service (CoS)

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports CoS acc. to IEEE 802.1d at VLAN basis; i.e. 8 levels of priority. 4 CoS at the egress of WAN ports are provided. Each queue with this scheme will have a weight. The bandwidth (or time) each queue occupies in a cycle is according to the weight assigned to it. The Weight of each queue is provisionable. At the egress side of the WAN ports, there are four queues, which can be assigned with different priorities or weights. The scheduling scheme can be set to Weighted Round-Robin (WRR) or WRR+Preemp.

2.3.7 Rapid Spanning Tree RSTP

SURPASS hiT7020 supports Rapid Spanning Tree Protocols acc. IEEE 802.1w on cards incorporating layer 2 switching capabilities. Spanning tree prevents against loops at the Ethernet level of the network while providing L2 protection. Thus, meshed configurations and even ring configurations such as Ethernet shared rings are supported.

16/61




For Layer 2 switch cards 2 WAN ports are needed in the ring. All the traffic goes through the ring, the capacity is shared from the Layer 2 switch cards.

2.3.8 Layer 2 switching / Multicast

The 4x FE module of the SURPASS hiT 7020 support L2 switching / multicast function including pre-provisioned static multicast, or IGMP Snooping controlled dynamic multicast. Layer 2 switching performs switching of ethernet frames from a number of LAN ports to a (smaller) number of WAN ports based on MAC addresses or VLAN-IDs.

2.3.9 Ethernet Transport Schemes SURPASS hiT 7020 supports three Ethernet data transport schemes shown below:

Point-to-point transparent o In this scheme, dedicated bandwidth is assigned to an end-to-end traffic

using. Virtual Concatenation technique and optionally LCAS. This scheme is more suitable for high security requirements and delay-sensitive traffic applications as each traffic has a dedicated bandwidth. The drawback is the limited bandwidth efficiency.

L2 Switching and aggregation o On cards supporting L2 switching ethernet frames from a number of

LAN ports may be statistically switched to a number of WAN ports based on MAC addresses or VLAN-IDs.

o L2 aggregation: a number of ethernet streams coming from a number of WAN ports are concentrated into a small number of LAN ports (typically one port FE ) based on VLAN-Ids.

Ethernet Spanning Tree Networks o Meshed networks or physical ring networks are to be resolved to a

logical linear or tree-type network configuration to prevent against Ethernet loops. This is supported by the SURPASS hiT7020 Ethernet cards RSTP features. Accordingly, even physical ring configurations are supported such as Ethernet shared rings, where Ethernet cards are cascaded on the WAN side ports and a loop/ring is closed.

o The RSTP technology allows for efficient add/drop or multicast of data traffic in a network, keeping Ethernet automatic protection in case of a breakdown of a link in a meshed network. This dramatically increases the transport efficiency when compared with the traditional point-to-point networking technology.

4.4 Cross Connect Capability

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports 2 kinds of cross connect capacities 4 4 VC-4 equivalent LOCC in the STM-1 line interface configuration, and 16 16 VC-4 equivalent LOCC in the STM-4 line interface configuration. The following types of cross connects are possible on both cross connect units:

Uni-directional Bi-directional Loop backs Multicast

4.5 Timing Function and SSM Support 4.5.1 Timing Source

The Timing function is part of the SURPASS hiT 7020 main board. The system derives clock reference from line interface (STM-1/4) or client interface (E1). Theres no dedicated External Timing Input/Output (Station Clock), but one of the 8 E1 interface ports on the main board could be used for this purpose (un-framed mode). When all the external timing references are lost, the system will be locked onto its internal timing reference or goes into holdover mode when the Stratum-3 compliant oscillator is installed. For the STM1/4 main board the accuracy of the clock is according G.813 Stratum-3 Option 1 local clock, whereas for the STM-1 main board according G.813 Option 2 local clock.

4.5.2 E1 Retiming

The SURPASS hiT 7020 supports E1 re-timing. For the base station controller or base station whose node has been equipped with BITS equipment, the timing signal derived from the BITS equipment alone can satisfy the synchronization requirement of the network. However, for the base station controller or base station that cannot be connected with the BITS equipment directly, the previous solution was deriving the timing signal from the services that were synchronized with the trunk input signal of the base station controller or base station. This is only one example where the retiming function can be used especially needed in mobile networks. But because the services came from the tributary of the SDH equipment, there may be existed a lot of pointer adjustment and the clock quality may be rather bad, so there

28/61




must be another method such as re-timing from the upstream to adjust the service code flow so as to solve the clock problem. The E1 re-timing function is designed for this purpose. The functional block of E1 re-timing function is depicted in Figure below.

Figure 16: E1 retiming

The SURPASS hiT 7020 supports 15 minutes and 24 hours performance statistics of number of positive bit-slip or negative bit-slip (and can distinguish positive and negative bit-slip and report independently). The SURPASS hiT 7020 also supports bit-slip alarm and bit-slip performance threshold crossed alarm (including 15 minutes and 24 hours), the threshold value can be set by Actor (positive and negative bit-slip alarm should be reported independently). This means for example the first port configured with timing reference, other 7 ports can be configured with retiming function.

4.5.3 SSM

A Synchronization Status Message (SSM) signal can be used to transfer the signal quality level throughout a network. This will guarantee that all network elements will always be synchronized to the highest quality clock available.

On the SURPASS hiT 7020 system the SDH SSM algorithm is supported on all STM-N interfaces

(1) SSM function support can be user provisioned as enabled or disabled. When the SSM function is disabled in the NE, all STM-N interfaces will send out DNU (do not use for sync) signal.

(2) There are 4 possible quality levels specified in SSM for timing reference sources: PRC, SSU-A, SSU-B, and SEC. In addition, DNU is specified in SSM. The quality of each timing reference source can either be retrieved from the incoming SSM or provisioned from the network management system.

(3) SURPASS hiT 7020 supports the synchronization source switching algorithm based on SSM defined in ITU-T G.781.

(4) The wait-to-restore (WTR) time for timing reference source is between 0 -12 minutes and can be set from the network management system in minute increments. The default value is 5 minutes.

4.6 STM-1/4 Line Interfaces

This SURPASS hiT 7020 provides 2x STM-1 or 2x STM-4 line optical interfaces. The STM-1/4 interfaces are fully compliant with ITU-T G.707 and G.957 standards. SURPASS hiT 7020 uses SFP for STM-1/4 optical interfaces.

35/61




5. Protection and Redundacy

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports multiple layer network protection functions and multiple layer protection escalation. The network protection functions supported are:

MSP 1+1 protection at STM-1 and STM-4, uni-directional or bi-directional, revertive or non-revertive modes, in compliance with ITU-T G.783/841

SNCP at VC-12, VC4 level, single ended, non-revertive and revertive (wait to restore time form 5 to 13 min.), in compliance with ITU-T G.783/841

2-fiber MS-SPRing in STM-4 rings, in compliance with ITU-T G.841. LCAS soft protection Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (on cards incorporating layer 2 switching

capabilities), in compliance with IEEE 802.1w. Spanning tree prevents against loops at the Ethernet level of the network while providing L2 protection.

5.1.1 MSP (1+1)

1+1 MSP (G.841/Clause 7) protects an STM-N link between two adjacent SDH MS (multiplexing section) elements. SURPASS hiT 7020 supports 1+1 multiplex section protection (MSP) on all STM-N optical ports. MSP 1+1 can be either uni-direction or bi-directional. The protection time is less than 50ms. SURPASS hiT 7020 also supports Manual switch and Forced switch of MSP.

5.1.2 SNCP

SNCP: Sub-Network Connection Protection (also known as path protection). SURPASS hiT 7020 supports Sub-Network Connection (SNC) protection (ITU-T G.841). It is available at the VC-12 and VC-4 level. SURPASS hiT 7020 supports VC-4/12 SNC protection between any pair of VC-4/12s in any STM-N Card. The protection switch time for SNC protection is less than 50 ms. The SNC protection scheme supported in SURPASS hiT 7020 is inherently monitored SNC or SNC/I. So SNCP protected VC-4s are protected against AIS or LOP at the AU-4 level (server layer defects) and against misconnections (trace identifier mismatch or VC-4 dTIM), and disconnections (unequipped signal or VC-4 dUNEQ), or signal fail

36/61




(VC-4 SF) in the VC-4 itself. Likewise, SNCP protected VC-12s are protected against TU12-AIS, TU12-LOP (server layer defects), VC-12 dTIM, dUNEQ and SF. An advantage of SNCP is the flexibility to select any segment of the path for protection. The SNC protection can be applied to an end-to-end (from source to sink termination point) VC-n path, or to one or multiple links within the end-to-end path. It is also simple and easy to implement, as there is no signaling required between the source and destination nodes.

5.1.3 MS-SPRing

The SURPASS hiT 7020 supports 2 fiber MS-SPRing. The protection (detection and switching) is guaranteed to be finished within 50ms. The wait-to-restore time is user configurable with a default value of 300 sec. The system also supports force switching and manual switching. In an STM-4 ring with MS-SPRing function enabled, a total of 4 AU4s are divided evenly into 2 groups: working AU4s (time slots 1 and 2) and protection AU4s (time slots 3 and 4). The SURPASS hiT 7020 does not support Extra Traffic (ET), or Non-preemptible and Unprotected Traffic (NUT).

5.1.4 LCAS soft protection

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports the combination of VCat and LCAS to provide VC-12 level soft protection. LCAS allows hitless adjustment of the size of a virtually concatenated group of channels. For example, when VC-12-Xv bandwidth is used to transmit a data channel through the SDH network. In case that certain VC-12s of the same VC-12-Xv group fail, SURPASS hiT 7020 will use LCAS to delete the failed VCs from the group, and the traffic is dynamically, or on the fly, adapted to the remaining bandwidth for transmission. When the failure is repaired, LCAS will automatically re-adjust (recover) the capacity of the channel to the originally configured bandwidth. For most effective use of this LCAS soft protection feature, partitions of the VC-Xv channel shall be routed diversely throughout the network.

5.1.5 Rapid Spanning Tree

SURPASS hiT 7020 supports L2 switching and RSTP (IEEE 802.1w compliant) based layer 2 protection in meshed or ring networks. RSTP automatically establishes a linear or tree type logical layer 2 network preventing loops.

37/61




Depending on the so-called maximal bridge parameter, convergence times as short as 1..2 seconds can be reached. RSTP based protection is different from SDH layer protection. SDH protection is considered a physical layer protection, while RSTP is a Layer 2 protection scheme. When a layer 2 Ethernet data fault is detected, even though the physical connectivity is good, RSTP will direct the data to another physical path. Especially in ring configurations build up through the WAN ports of the Layer 2 bandwidth can be saved compared to meshed / star configuration. The layer 2 protection is provided through the Rapid Spanning Tree protocol.

5.1.6 Multible Layers Protection

SURPASS hiT 7020 provides increased network reliability by inter-operating MAC layer 2 protection with SDH protection using different hold off times at different layers. When a network failure is detected in multiple layers, the lower layer protection is performed first. The higher-level protection will occur only if the lower layer protection does not succeed. For example, in a fiber failure condition, SDH layer protection will be performed first. If the SDH layer protection is successful, the Ethernet layer protection will not be performed. However, if the SDH layer protection fails (the failure is declared after a pre-defined hold off time; for example 100ms), the RSTP in the layer 2 will react to the failure and provide the protection by directing the data to an alternative path. The hold off time in the Ethernet layer is user provisionable.

5.1.7 Equipment Protection

Powering protection: dual power feed: 2 x DC power supply Duplicated Fans Thermal Sensor to detect if the internal temperature exceeds the

threshold

5.1.8 Protection in special Conditions

Unit power-off and software reset protection: System application software and data files are stored in both SDRAM and FLASH, where the copy in the FLASH is the backup copy. When the module is powered-off or reset, software can automatically retrieve the previous copy of application program and data from the FLASH.

Software download protection: when power fails during software download, the SURPASS hiT 7020 BIOS will be written protected. The

38/61




BIOS is guaranteed not to start the uncompleted software program or data file. After the power recovery, SURPASS hiT 7020 supports continued software download. All application software programs and data files can be downloaded to a NE while the NE is in-service. Software download verification process prevents data errors from transmission.

Software upgrade protection: the SURPASS hiT 7020 controller contains two copies of the system software. During the software upgrade, one copy will be replaced by the new version of the software. After the new version is confirmed, the switch over to the new version does not affect the service traffic, and the existing system setting and configuration are maintained. If the system upgrade fails, the system can be switched back to the old version. Only when the new software version is confirmed working properly, can the old version be erased.

5.1.9 Software Fault Tolerance

The software design of the SURPASS hiT 7020 NE adopts the principles of the software engineering, involving a top-down and object-oriented software design methods. Advanced software developing management and designing technology assure the high quality and reliability of NE software.

Software modularization and low coupling between modules Multiple level software programs and data protection, with self-checking

and self-recovering functions Data transmission checking and re-transmitting mechanisms are

implemented in all control signal transmission channels between modules to minimize the transmitting errors

Adopted internal dog-circuit in CPU to avoid the impact of software deadlock or shut down. No service affected when the software performs warm reset

Adopted common software platform approach. SURPASS hiT 7020 supports code sharing and reuses as many as field proven codes to provide higher software reliability.

5.1.10 Data Security

SURPASS hiT 7020 adopts database module technology and manages data uniformly, which enhances the data security:

Database and database files each have a data checking function Database files are protected according to importance level of data. Errors

of lower level database files will not affect higher level database files There are two copies in the NE FLASH, two copies protect each other

Figure 30: RJ45 pin assignment

Station Alarm Output The system provides 2 contact pairs in the Alarm RJ45 interface for Station Alarm output. The interface offers two hard contacts, which can be used to extend the alarm signals from the system to the station alarm scheme. One contact is used for Critical and Major alarm output which will drive audible and visible Critical or Major alarm output. Another contact is used for Minor visible alarm output which only drives the visible Minor alarm output. There is no suppressing button on this system. The warning and indeterminate alarms wont activate the contacts.

MDI/MDO The Miscellaneous Discrete Input (MDI) function is used to read alarms in a station and reports the alarm occurrence. Miscellaneous Discrete Output (MDO) function is used to control equipment, such as air conditioner, power generators, and alarm bells, via the CLI or EMS. MDI monitors the external alarm received at MDI interface port and sends alarm notification. System has 1 MDI contact pair on the front face. Alarm logic can be changed and selectable by the user. Default status of the MDI port is 1 (open). MDO is used to output control status to the corresponding MDO interface port by issuing a command via CLI or EMS. System has 1 MDO pair on the front face. MDO alarm polarity and duration time can be set. Default is "0"(closed) continually.
