2. AN-2000 IB – Product Overview
2.1 Technology Overview
Broadband access is the future of home and office communication and
entertainment. Currently the most cost-effective way to bring a high-speed
connection to the residential and business customer is still to make use of the
existing copper line telephone network. Bandwidth constraints and the rise of
ATM as the premier core networking architecture led to ATM’s dominance in
the DSL world. The ATM traffic from the DSLAM was traditionally carried
on costly ATM core networks. This architecture also required a Broadband
Remote Access Server (B-RAS) for interconnection to the IP network. IP
ultimately eclipsed ATM in evolving core networks. As a result, service
providers sought to bypass the complex provisioning and high overhead of
ATM with simpler and more cost-effective IP solutions.

Today, many carriers are opting to build their backbone/transport network


based on IP over Ethernet, due to its obvious cost advantages and network
implementation efficiencies relative to ATM. Not surprisingly, service
providers are eager to extend this efficiency and ease of implementation to
their DSL deployments.

2.2 System Overview


UTStarcom’s AN-2000 IB is a carrier class DSL access product that is
tailored to the customer’s needs for high-speed remote access and subscriber
aggregation. This product offers high capacity traffic aggregation and robust,
“always on” service.

The AN-2000 IB is a revolutionary product capable of interfacing directly


with the evolving IP network in a cost-effective manner. The Fast Ethernet
WAN interface on the AN-2000 IB directly connects to an Internet router or
LAN switch, thereby eliminating the traditional bandwidth bottleneck typical
in an ATM network. The AN-2000 IB terminates ATM cells originating from
the customer premise equipment and converts them into IP traffic, thus
eliminating the need to build and maintain an expensive ATM infrastructure.
Decreased dependence on ATM results in greater throughput and simplified
management.

AN-2000 IB
2-2 Overview

In addition to greater throughput and simplified management, the AN-2000 IB


solution also eliminates the need for ATM-related network elements.

The AN-2000 IB provides comprehensive management and remote operation


support based on Telnet.

2.3.6.1 Access Levels and methods


For R2.1 IP-DSLAM system, configuration and system monitoring is also done
via CLI. Alarm reporting is done by SNMP traps. It supports management
systems like HP Openview to receive and process alarms. Through CLI the
destination IP address of the external alarm entity can be configured. The
operational levels and their privileges are as listed below:

‰ Normal level

• Normal level commands are for everyday system


monitoring.

• Normal level user is able to perform everyday system


monitoring. Regular user refers to any user who does not
use “admin” as login name.

‰ Privileged level

• Privileged level commands are used for system


configuration. User obtains privileged operational level by
logging in with “enable” command followed by the correct
“enable password”.

‰ Administrator level

• Administrator level commands are used for user account


management. User obtains administrator operational level
by logging in with “admin” command followed by the
correct “admin password”.

‰ Access method

The CLI can be accessed by either of the two methods:

• Any emulation software such as HyperTerminal on the


management station. The management station is connected
to the console port of the network element.

• Using any Telnet TCP/IP package from a remote


management station. The network element must have
network connectivity with the Telnet client.

quality TV and entertainment services, with broadband access and IP voice. In
addition to Triple Play services, the AN-2000 IB paves the way for a broad
complement of future, value added services such as video phone, video
conferencing, electronic commerce over TV (t-commerce), video mail,
personalized content programs and more.

By combining the AN-2000 IB with UTStarcom’s MediaSwitch platform,


Service Providers may also offer subscribers network-based, virtual VCR and
Video On Demand (VOD) services. Virtual VCR enables subscribers to
pause, start, stop, rewind and fast-forward Live TV programs. Users also
have the flexibility to watch any previously broadcasted programs without
pre-recording. VOD services allow subscribers to watch any pre-loaded
program at any time from anywhere. VOD services stand in stark contrast to
the conventional cable operator Pay Per View (PPV) offering in which
programs are broadcast according to a pre-set schedule.

2.4.3 Content Delivery Applications

2.4.3.1 Multicast IP Video Content


Live television and movies-on-demand delivered via ADSL, enables a greater
breadth of service than simple Internet access. Traditional “Cable TV” relies
on a shared medium with fixed bandwidth, and the number of channels is
limited. By contrast, ADSL is a dedicated medium through which clients
access multicast streams that are selectively routed through the network. As a
result, it is possible to offer many more channels with ADSL than with cable.

2.4.3.2 Unicast IP Video Content


AN-2000 IP unicast capability enables viewers to pause, start, stop, rewind,
and fast-forward live programs or watch any previously broadcast program
without having to pre-record it. TVoIP also enables video-on-demand, so
subscribers can watch any pre-loaded program at any time, from anywhere.
This service is far more flexible than cable TV pay-per-view or near video-on-
demand services, which broadcast programs according to established
schedules. Adding a video camera to the TVoIP set-top box (STB) transforms
the subscriber’s home into a personal broadcasting center with videophone
and videoconferencing capabilities.

2.4.4 LAN Extension Concentrator


For a large enterprise network, AN-2000 IB can server as a high performance,
cost-effective LAN extension concentrator, providing a simple way to connect
satellite facilities using the existing copper line.

For this application, AN-2000 IB system can be installed at the corporate


center and all the remote sites connect to the corporate LAN via ADSL links
on traditional copper pairs. When compared to the lease line or dialup
solution, this approach is more economical and provides higher bandwidth.
(Up to 8Mbps in downlink vs. 2Mbps in one E1 link).

2.5 IP Services Module Applications


The IP Services Module (ISM) is an IP application blade that enables the
service provider to offer advanced IP services to DSL subscribers. It brings
advanced bridging and routing functions, layer two and layer three QoS
features, and subscriber management capabilities to the AN-2000 IB IP-
DSLAM. Most importantly, the unique features offered by the ISM bring
excellent scalability to the IP access network. ISM also provides interfaces to

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Overview 2-13

traditional ATM-based access network to allow service providers to gradually


migrate from ATM to IP.

2.5.1 Advanced IP Features

2.5.1.1 Bridging
The ISM supports full-featured bridging functions at layer 2. It supports both
802.1d and 802.1q bridging with up to 4095 bridge groups. Additionally, the
ISM supports VLAN aggregation where subscriber traffic carried on different
VLANs can be merged onto a single VLAN.

2.5.1.2 Routing
At layer three, the ISM supports static, dynamic (RIP and OSPF), and policy-
based routing. Policy-based routing is implemented through multiple Virtual
Routing Domains or VRD’s. Each VRD is a separate routing context in
which the routing decision for a subscriber packet is based on the routing
entries of the VRD that the subscriber belongs to. The ISM also supports
inter-VLAN routing.

2.5.1.3 Access Control and Session Tracking


The ISM has a rich set of subscriber authentication and session tracking
capabilities. The subscriber is authenticated either through a local user
database on the ISM or through a RADIUS server.

At layer two, ISM can apply access control based on subscriber’s MAC
address. The ISM supports IEEE 802.1x port based access control and
RADIUS proxy for IEEE 802.1x based Wireless Access Points. With these
capabilities, the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM can be deployed to offer Wireless
Hotspot services to places like coffee shop, hotel, airport, and etc.

Layer three access controls are more appropriate when service providers find
it difficult to control their subscribers’ MAC addresses. The ISM supports
PPP Authentication Protocol (PAP) and Challenge Handshake Authentication
Protocol (CHAP) for PPP subscribers, and IP address authentication for static
IP subscribers.

Layer three access controls are difficult to apply in cases where DHCP is
utilized since IP addresses are typically shared among DHCP subscribers.
The ISM’s web authentication mechanism solves this problem by forcing the
user to provide login and password through a security portal after he receives
an IP address via DHCP.

In addition, when desired by the service provider, the ISM also provides the
capability to track and limit the number of concurrent subscriber sessions.

AN-2000 IB
2-14 Overview AN-2000 IB

The ISM keeps track of each admitted subscriber session and collects usage
statistics. It tracks subscriber MAC addresses, IP addresses, DHCP lease
times, and PPPoA/PPPoE sessions. It also maintains a set of counters that
tracks subscribers’ byte counts and online times. The statistics collected by
ISM can be accessed via SNMP and RADIUS accounting.

The ISM also supports sophisticated packet filters via the Access Control List
(ACL) function that allow the service provider to block unauthorized
subscriber applications.

2.5.1.4 Subscriber Isolation


One of the most requested capabilities from the service providers is subscriber
isolation. The service providers often require that the DSLAM prevent cross-
talk between DSL subscribers and forward all subscriber traffic to the
aggregation router for security and billing reasons. The ISM can provide
subscriber isolation at both layer two and layer three. When layer two
subscriber isolation is enforced in the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM, two
subscribers cannot communicate with each other without going through the
upstream aggregation router, even if they are in the same bridge group.

At layer three, VRDs can also provide subscriber isolation. Subscribers


belonging to different VRDs are prohibited from communicating with each
other within the DSLAM. In addition, similar to layer two subscriber
isolation, the ISM can enforce strict isolation between two (or more)
subscribers belonging to the same VRD. When strict subscriber isolation is
enforced, two subscribers in the same VRD can only communicate with each
other through the upstream aggregation router.

2.5.1.5 QoS
The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM supports both layer two and layer three packet
classification, priority queuing, and per flow traffic policing. Packet
classification is implemented by using the rules and mechanism employed by
Access Control Lists (ACLs). Incoming packets are matched against a set of
rules. A TOS priority can be assigned to each ACL rule so that the priority is
applied to the matched packets.

Packet prioritization allows packets to be queued in the ISM based on the


packet priority determined by the rules specified with precedence order from
highest to lowest as follows:
Ɣ For packets matched an ACL rule, the TOS priority defined in the ACL
rule is applied as the packet priority.
Ɣ For packets with TOS bits set in the IP header, the 3-bit precedence field
is extracted and used as the packet priority.

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB l Overview 2-15

Ɣ For packets containing 802.1p priority in the VLAN tag, the 3-bit priority
filed is extracted and used as the packet priority.
Ɣ The default packet priority is the lowest 0.

The packets are placed into one of eight transmit queues based on the packet
priority assigned. The transmit queues are serviced using strict priority
queuing. This method follows strict order of queue priority to retrieve packets
for outgoing traffic.

The outbound packets are modified to carry the TOS field. The packet
priority is copied to the TOS precedence field in the IP header if IP TOS
marking is enabled. The packet priority is also copied to the 802.1Q VLAN
priority field if the VLAN priority tagging is enabled.

ISM supports IP traffic policing and ATM QoS via traffic class templates on
ports and interfaces. For IP traffic policing, user can define a maximum
downstream rate and a maximum upstream rate. For ATM QoS, use can
utilize the standard ATM QoS classes such as CBR, UBR-rt, UBR-nrt, and
VBR. Connection Admission Control (CAC) is supported when using
guaranteed rate classes like CBR.

2.5.1.6 IP Virtual Private Networking


A Virtual Private Network (VPN) is a private network constructed using a
public network infrastructure, such as the global Internet. The base
motivation for VPNs lies in the economics of communications. A collection
of virtual networks implemented on a common public network infrastructure
is cheaper to operate than an equivalent collection of smaller physically
discrete communications infrastructures, each servicing a single network
client. VPNs must enforce traffic segregation such that the information
carried within a VPN is restricted to a defined set of entities, and third parties
cannot gain access. VPNs also allow for private addressing and routing across
the public Internet.

It is important to mention that Service Level Agreements (SLAs) have


become a necessary aspect when deploying VPNs. SLAs are negotiated
contracts between service providers and their subscribers. SLAs specify the
QoS attributes of each VPN, such as packet loss, jitter, latency and
throughput.

The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM supports both layer 2 (link-layer) and layer 3


(network-layer) IP VPNs.

2.5.1.6.1 Link-layer VPN

AN-2000 IB
2-16 Overview AN-2000 IB

At the link layer, the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM supports VLAN based VPNs.
The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM enforces traffic segregation by selectively
applying VLAN tags to groups of DSL subscribers that belong to the same
VPN. VLAN tags are applied when subscriber traffic enters the DSLAM.
Priority queuing and traffic policing is applied to each VLAN to ensure
conformance to the SLA provided to the VPN subscribers.

Network Layer VPN’s are most commonly implemented through tunneling


techniques. The ISM supports three types of network-layer VPN’s: L2TP, IP-
IP, and IP-GRE. Subscriber traffic is transported by VPN tunnels when it
leaves the DSLAM.

2.5.1.6.2.1 Layer two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP)

L2TP is a tunneling protocol that transports PPP traffic over public IP


networks. It is widely used to deploy PPP based dial-up VPN across the
public Internet. ISM supports both LNS and LAC mode. Therefore an L2TP
VPN can be established between two DSL subscribers residing in two
different AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAMs across the public network.

2.5.1.6.2.2 IP over IP (IP-IP)

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Overview 2-17

IP-IP is a method by which an IP datagram may be encapsulated (carried as


payload) within an IP datagram. It is used as a means to alter the normal IP
routing for datagrams, by delivering them to an intermediate destination that
would otherwise not be selected based on the (network part of the) IP
Destination Address field in the original IP header. IP traffic carried within IP
tunnels is completely isolated from other IP traffic in the public network. IP-
IP tunnels are ideal for VPNs carrying IP traffic with private addresses.

2.5.1.6.2.3 IP over Generic Routing Encapsulation (IP-GRE)

IP-GRE tunnels are very similar to IP-IP tunnels in concept. However, the
payload of the IP-GRE tunnel is not limited to IP packets. IP-GRE tunnels
also provide additional error checking and security mechanisms such as
sequencing, checksum, and security keys.

2.5.1.7 Multiple Service Providers


Most DSL network access providers, such as Incumbent Local Exchange
Carriers and Public Telephone and Telegraph providers, are required by law to
offer wholesale DSL circuits to third party Internet Service Providers (ISPs)
and Application Service Providers (ASPs). The mandate encourages
competition and creates new revenue streams for the DSL access providers.
This means that DSL subscribers serviced by the same DSLAM may belong
to different ISPs and ASPs. Therefore the DSLAM must be able to segregate
subscriber traffic among different ISPs and ASPs.

Figure 2-5 : ISP Selection

The ISM brings great flexibility to the DSL network access providers who
offer wholesale DSL services. The network access providers can use the
following features to enable wholesale services:

• VLAN bridging

• Virtual routing

• L2TP tunneling

• IP-IP tunneling

• IP-GRE tunneling

In a wholesale environment, a centralized B-RAS at the ISP’s location is


normally responsible for subscriber session termination and address
management. Using the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM, the need for the centralized
B-RAS is eliminated because the DSLAM itself forwards subscriber traffic to
the ISP’s B-RAS. The subscriber session that is forwarded can be statically
provisioned or dynamically selected based on subscriber identity and
subscriber domain. Dynamic ISP selection eliminates the need to re-provision
the forwarding attributes when the subscribers switch ISPs.

AN-2000 IB l Overview 2-19

2.5.1.8 On-Demand Network Service Selection


A good DSL solution must enable service providers to create new revenue-
generating opportunities by offering usage-based services. Value-added
services such as streaming video, voice over IP, business-class Internet, and
on-line gaming not only create new, higher-margin revenue streams but also
help attract and retain subscribers.

Figure 2-6 : On-Demand Network Service Selection

The ISM provides two methods for selecting on-demand services: PPPoE
service profiles and Softflow profiles. A PPPoE service profile specifies the
maximum bandwidth allowed for a PPPoE subscriber and is applied as part of
the PPPoE log on process. A Softflow profile contains additional service
attributes, such as QoS parameters, routing domains, tunneling, IP address
blocks, and etc. Softflow profiles can supplement the PPPoE service profiles.
In addition, they can be applied to other types of subscribers using PPPoA and
IP/MAC transport. On-demand Softflow profile selection enables the
subscribers to log on to multiple services simultaneously. Softflow profiles
can be applied based on subscriber identity and subscriber realm (domain).

Once service selection is completed, ISM then switches subscriber traffic to


the selected services, and applies service-dependent dynamic bandwidth
allocation, security policies, routing policies, and QoS policies according to
the service profile. This offers flexibility and convenience for subscribers and
enables service providers to apply usage-based billing rather than charging a
flat rate.

AN-2000 IB
2-20 Overview AN-2000 IB

2.5.2 IP Scalability

2.5.2.1 IP/MAC
In a traditional ATM-based DSL access network, subscriber traffic is
backhauled to a central aggregation router. The ATM transport network
provides layer two transport of subscriber traffic. Naturally, the service
providers tend to follow the same bridged network model when migrating to
an IP-based DSL access network. This model puts a large burden on the
aggregation router to resolve IP/MAC address mappings for tens and hundreds
of thousands of subscribers when subscriber traffic is layer two switched in
the access network.

The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM offloads the IP/MAC processing from the


aggregation router with an innovative bridging feature provided by ISM. The
ISM aggregates traffic flows from multiple DSLAMs and bridges subscriber
traffic into one or more IP tunnels. Ethernet headers are stripped from the
tunneled packets, with MAC addresses maintained on the ISM and hidden
from the aggregation router. This results in better utilization of the
aggregation router’s processing power while maintaining the existing bridged
network model in the access network.

2.5.2.2 Distributed Subscriber Session Termination


For service provides that do not have a large investment in centralized B-RAS
solutions, utilizing the integrated subscriber session termination capabilities of
the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM is much more economical and scalable than
deploying the centralized B-RAS solution.

The fact is that even the most sophisticated B-RAS can only handle a limited
number of simultaneous subscriber sessions, typically in the range of 32,000
to 100,000 with multiple processing blades. These high capacity B-RAS’s
require significant upfront investment and are expensive to maintain.

The ISM has built-in subscriber management capabilities, and is capable of


handling of 16,000 concurrent subscriber sessions on a single blade. In
addition, because of its high processing capacity, a single ISM can be shared
among multiple subtended DSLAMs. The cost per subscriber is lower than
centralized B-RAS solutions.

2.5.2.3 IP Address Management


IP address management is an important aspect when it comes to maintaining a
large network with millions of subscribers. It is very costly to reserve a large
block of public IP addresses and assign them directly to each DSL subscriber.
ISM solves this problem through Network Address Translation (NAT) and
Network Address and Protocol Translation (NAPT). NAT provides one-to-

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Overview 2-21

one mappings of public and private IP addresses and NAPT allows one-to-
many mappings of public and private IP addresses. With NAT and NAPT, the
service provider can greatly reduce the required number of public IP addresses
and most efficiently utilize the limited number of existing public IP addresses.

2.5.2.4 IP Multicast
To offer video over broadband, video servers are located at a central location
and transmit MPEG coded video streams via IP multicast. A multicast router
uses Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to track subscribers of
each multicast group and to make the forwarding decisions. The ISM
provides a unique IGMP Proxy feature to hide the individual subscribers from
the multicast router. The ISM acts as if there was only one multicast
subscriber connected to the DSLAM, regardless how many actual DSL
subscribers are currently subscribed to a particular video stream. Therefore,
the multicast router only tracks group membership for each central office
rather than each individual DSL subscriber.

2.5.3 IP vs. ATM

2.5.3.1 Simplified Provisioning and Maintenance


In a traditional ATM-based DSL access network, one or more end-to-end
PVCs are provisioned between each CPE and the aggregation router. The
operator is required to provision the PVC cross-connects on each network
devices between the two PVC endpoints. When one network device is out of
order, the operator has to re-provision all affected subscriber PVCs.

In a true IP-based DSL access network, as provided by the AN-2000 IB IP-


DSLAM, the PVCs are terminated on the DSL line card and all subscriber
traffic are bridged or routed to the aggregation router. Contrast this to the
ATM network where each subscriber requires the operator to provision the
PVC cross-connects on many network devices, the operator is required to
provision PVCs only between the CPE and the DSL line card.

Even in a hybrid mode access network, where the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM is


interfaced with an ATM-based aggregation router, the amount of PVC
provisioning can still be greatly reduced. In this case, PVC provisioning is
required between the CPE and the DSL line card, and between the ISM and
the aggregation router. However, between the ISM and the aggregation
router, instead of provisioning one end-to-end PVC for each DSL subscriber,
only a few PVCs are required for all DSL subscribers, one for each service
type/service provider. For example, in a Triple Play environment, instead of
provisioning three end-to-end PVCs between every CPE and the aggregation
router to carry voice, video, and data traffic, the ISM can reduce the number
of PVCs by aggregating all traffic of the same type into one PVC. Therefore,

AN-2000 IB
2-22 Overview AN-2000 IB

instead of provisioning thousands of PVCs between the ISM and the


aggregation router, only three PVCs need to be provisioned.

ATM Backbone AN-2000 IB Rev. 2.0

Figure 2-7 : VC Consolidation

The reduction in the number of PVCs in the access network also results in
great cost savings in network maintenance.

2.5.3.2 Reduced Equipment Cost


The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM reduces a service provider’s total equipment
cost in two areas: elimination of ATM VC limitations and better utilization of
link bandwidth.

In an ATM-based access network, the ATM switches and the DSLAM ATM
aggregation modules support a limited number of PVCs, ranging from a few
thousand to tens of thousands. With the rapid growth of DSL subscribers,
these ATM switches and ATM aggregation modules quickly run out of VC
capacity. The service providers are forced to deploy more ATM switches to
increase the access capacity. On the other hand, the VC limitation does not
exist in Ethernet based IP networks. The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM can
subtend many DSLAMs and allows the service providers to offer services to
many more subscribers without adding additional aggregation equipment.

The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM is designed to offer very high subscriber


bandwidth for advanced services such as video in addition to traditional data
services. The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM supports multiple Gigabit Ethernet

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Overview 2-23

uplinks while a typical ATM DSLAM supports smaller numbers of lower


speed ATM uplinks. In addition, Gigabit Ethernet links can be fully utilized to
carry subscriber traffic while only 90% of the PVC bandwidth can be utilized
to carry subscriber traffic due to ATM overhead. Therefore, the available
aggregation bandwidth allows the AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM to support much
higher DSL port counts than ATM DSLAMs.

2.5.4 Migrating from ATM to IP


The migration from ATM-based DSL access network to IP-based DSL access
network is a gradual process. It is neither financially acceptable nor
logistically possible for service providers to discontinue ATM-based DSL
services and move existing DSL subscribers to IP-based network overnight.
IP and ATM must co-exist in the same network for some period of time to
allow for gradual transition of services.

Different service providers may choose different approaches to migrate. It


may make sense to one service provider to build an IP backbone first, while to
another service provider migrating from the network edge is more acceptable.
ISM supports various ATM interfaces including DS3/E3, OC3/STM-1, and
OC12/STM-4, that work for both approaches.

2.5.4.1 From Core to the Edge


When the migration direction is from the core to the edge, the ATM can be
used as subtending links to aggregate ATM traffic from existing ATM
DSLAMs and to forward the subscriber traffic to the IP backbone using the
Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.

In many ATM networks, RFC1483 routed VC encapsulation is often used to


carry IP traffic between the aggregation router and the DSL CPE. This model
allows the service providers to perform layer two switching in the DSL access
network without the overhead of subscriber MAC address processing. The
ISM allows the service providers to maintain such network model by bridging
subscriber traffic into RFC1483 routed VCs with MAC addresses maintained
on the ISM. In addition, the VLAN to VC mapping feature provides easy
cross-connect between IP and ATM networks.

2.6 Conclusion
Service providers are discovering the cost and scalability advantages of an IP-
based DSL network. The AN-2000 IB IP-DSLAM product provides service
providers with advanced IP services, innovative scalability features, ATM
migration features to ease the transition to IP.

System Description

3. System Description
The AN-2000 IB, is a revolutionary product with a capability to interface
directly with the evolving IP network in a cost effective manner. The Gigabit
Ethernet WAN interface on the AN-2000 IB directly connects to an Internet
router or LAN switch. ATM cells originating from the customer premise
equipment are terminated inside the AN-2000 IB and converted to IP traffic.
The Gigabit WAN interface on the AN-2000 IB directly interfaces with the
carrier’s IP network. Such architecture eliminates the need to build expensive
ATM infrastructure.

In addition to the increased throughput, the AN-2000 IB solution also offers a


cost benefit and ease of management due to the elimination of a network
element.

3.1 System Architecture


The AN-2000 IB is a centrally managed, modular IP-DSLAM system. It is
chassis-based, and can be configured as a stand-alone unit or multi-shelf
system. An AN-2000 IB chassis is an 8U high, 19” rack-mountable unit that
incorporates plug-in circuit cards called “modules.” An AN-2000 IB chassis,
configured by its complement of modules, becomes a system “shelf”. Each
AN-2000 IB shelf consists of sixteen universal slots (1 through 16) and three
common control slots (A, B, and P). Line cards, or subscriber modules, such
as the IP-ADSL and the IP-SHDSL, may be plugged into any of the universal
slots. The ISM occupies slot 1 and/or 2. An optional rear chassis can be
attached to the back of each primary or front chassis to house POTS/ADSL
splitter modules. Several AN-2000 IB shelves can be interconnected to
provide service to a larger number of subscribers than a single shelf could
accommodate. Interconnected shelves can be centrally managed using Netman
network management software or a Command Line Interface (CLI).

Traffic processing within the AN-2000 IB system is distributed across the


subscriber modules, which terminate the ATM encapsulation protocol to
extract IP and Ethernet datagrams. Each subscriber module contains 24 ADSL
ports and two 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces to the backplane.
These FE interfaces can operate in a redundant mode.

AN-2000 IB
3-2 System Description AN-2000 IB

Each of the sixteen line card slots on the AN-2000 IB chassis connects to
control slots A and B through a pair of 100Mbps FE traces that travel across
the backplane. These FE traces carry both management and subscriber traffic
for each line card.

Slots “A” and “B” are control slots that host the ICM3 modules. The AN-2000
IB supports up to two ICM3 modules that can operate in 1+1 protection mode.
The ICM3 module is involved in traffic aggregation, system control, line
module initialization/provisioning, and alarm management.

At the initialization stage, the IPxDSL modules receive a copy of their boot
image and configuration parameters from the active ICM3 module. Each
ICM3 module supports 20 Fast Ethernet Interfaces, sixteen of which are
connected through the backplane FE traces to the individual line card slots
(slots 1 through 16). The remaining 4 connect to the external FE interfaces at
the back of the chassis. The ICM3 module aggregates the traffic from all line
cards plus the 4-port external Ethernet interfaces, into one Gigabit Ethernet
uplink.

3.2 IP-xDSL Module Architecture


The IP-ADSL 1 is a single-slot, plug-in module that may occupy any of the
sixteen universal slots. The following functional block description refers to
the diagram below. The highlighted part performs the ATU-C function as
defined in ITU-T G.992.1 and G.992.2. A processor connects to the ATU-C
via twenty-four Utopia 2 ports. The processor terminates both Operation And
Maintenance (OAM) cells and user ATM VCs, where Layer 2 protocol
processing is performed. Subscriber IP and Ethernet datagrams are extracted
from the ATM cells and concentrated to two 100 Base-T interfaces that
operate in a redundant mode. Stripped of the ATM overhead, the traffic is
further concentrated via the backplane to the external, dual Gigabit Ethernet
Interface on the ICM3 module.

Figure 3-2: IP-xDSL Module Architecture

The traffic pattern for residential Internet access is typically bursty, with high
Peak-to-Average ratio traffic. Many users can therefore share a modest
amount of backhaul bandwidth. Since Ethernet bridging is a buffered,
contentionless method, it can tolerate high occupancy without performance
degradation. For example, 24 users, each with peak speeds of 8 Mbps, can
share a 100 Base-T Interface (or less) for backhaul bandwidth while still
experiencing excellent performance.

3.3 ADSL Physical Layer


An ADSL subscriber’s data and POTS signals are combined at the customer
premise, and decoupled at the AN-2000 IB. The AN-2000 IB splitter directs
the POTS traffic to the local exchange while aggregating the ADSL traffic for
hand off to a LAN switch or router via an IP interface.

At the customer premise, the “always on” service is provided using existing 2-
wire copper local loops and commercially available "ATU-R" ADSL modem
equipment. The subscriber’s traditional telephone service (POTS) continues to
share these existing loops.

3.4 System Software Architecture


The IP-DSLAM system software includes Command Line Interface backend
and the node software. The node software includes the software for ICM3 and
all line card modules.

ICM3 uses IP protocol to communicate with line module, the IP traffic is


carried via the dedicated Ethernet interface between ICM and line module in
slot 1 to slot 16. The same Ethernet interface is also used to carry user traffic
from line module to ICM3.

3.4.1 Initialization (Init)


Both the ICM3 and the line card modules contain software that performs
initialization. After a power cycle or reset, the loader loads the kernel into
memory. After the kernel initializes it loads and initializes the device drivers,
and runs the application program. The line card module then downloads the
configuration parameters as well as the firmware and application program
from the ICM3.

3.4.2 Communication Manager (CM)


The ICM3 and the line card modules communicate via UDP sockets over the
IP stack. Both line card modules and the ICM3 contain a software block,

3-6 System Description AN-2000 IB

which together, form the end points of the communication channel. The CM
on the ICM3 listens to multiple UDP sockets for the incoming messages,
while the CM on the line card module only deals with one UDP socket at a
time.

3.4.3 Monitoring
ICM3 monitoring includes the discovery and polling of the line card and PCU
modules.

3.4.4 Alarm
The alarm functional block is responsible for alarm-related processing, such
as tracking outstanding alarms, processing alarm filters and setting
visual/audio alarms.

3.4.5 TFTP
The ICM3 module contains an embedded TFTP server for software transfer to
the line card module.

3.6 AN-2000 IB Cabinet


The AN-2000 IB cabinet as shown in Figure 3-4 shows five system shelves.
Each AN-2000 IB shelf is connected with a corresponding splitter shelf,
which separates the voice and data and further connects to PSTN and MDF.
The splitter shelf can be installed directly at the rear of each AN IB shelf.
Refer to Figure 3-9, Figure 3-10 for more details of the splitter and Figure 3-8
for the front view of the shelf with cards equipped. The splitter shelves are
installed at the rear of the cabinet. PDP 200 distributes -48VDC power.
Kindly Refer to Section 3.8 and Section 6.3 for details on PDP 200.

WARNING:

1. Reversing the input polarity of the –48 VDC and ground to the AN-2000 IB
system will cause damage to the equipment. Before inserting ANY modules it is
essential that the -48VDC polarity be checked.

3.7 System Shelf


The R2.1 AN-2000 IB chassis is a 19” rack-mount and 8U high unit. A rear
chassis is attached to house splitter modules or line protection modules. 19
slots are available for front plug-in modules, indexed as 1-16 and A, B, P. Slot
1-16 can be mixed with IP-ADSL1/3 and IP-SHDSL modules, ISM occupies
slot 1 and/or 2 if it is installed, slot A and B is reserved for ICM3 modules.
The first ICM3 module plugged into the system becomes active and the
second one becomes standby. If both the ICM3s are come up together at the
same time ICM3 in slot “A” becomes active and ICM3 in slot “B” becomes
standby. The ICM3 has a rear adaptor, which gives out 4 External Ethernet
connections. Slot P is reserved for PCU module. The PCU supports a rear
adaptor, which provides for cascading of multiple systems for management
and external clock support. 16 slots are available on rear chassis; ADSL
splitter module (for IPADSL1/3 modules) and line protection module
(provides K.20 secondary protection for IP-SHDSL modules) can be plugged
in at the rear chassis.

Three plug-in fan trays (Two Fans per Tray) are located above the front plug-
in modules. Fan alarms are collected by PCU. PCU can also connect with
PDP2000 to collect fuse alarms. One temperature sensor is located beneath the
fan tray and close to the airflow exit.

3.8 Power Distribution


Power distribution on AN-2000 IB system is accomplished by PDP 200.

The PDP 200 provides up to 16 circuits for the distribution of -48 volts DC
power to a variety of loads. Each load is protected by a field replaceable
circuit breaker that can match each individual load’s requirement. The PDP
200 features a field replaceable alarm/control card that will detect and report a
tripped circuit breaker; in addition the alarm card consolidates 6 external fan
alarms and is reported as a single fan fault. The alarm card interfaces with
either the PCU or ACU to send / receive alarm and control signals.

PDP 200 has the following features:

The PDP 200 provides one –48V DC input terminal that supports power
cable sizes ranging from 24mm2 to 260mm2 (4 AWG to 400 MCM), the total
input current is rated up to 200 amps. The input terminal comes with two M8
x 20 mm fasten bolts/nuts/washers and selected lug stud hole size shall be
matched. Depending on the application, the power cable can vary from
24mm2 to 260mm2 (4 AWG to 400 MCM). If two-hole lug is used
(recommended lug style), then the distance between the holes shall be 25.4
mm (1 inch). Refer to Table 3-2 for detail information of the lugs and cable
selection.

The PDP 200 provides two separate grounding bars, one for -48VDC
RETURN and the other for protective frame ground (FGND). Each of the
main –48V RETURN and FGND terminals come with two M8 x 20 mm
fasten bolts/nuts/washers which are the same as –48V DC Input terminal.

The PDP 200 provides sixteen –48VOUTPUT power terminals along with
sixteen –48V RETURN and FGND terminals on the two Grounding bars for
the loads of the rack. The current rating of these terminals is 30amps. Table

Note 1
“MAX. Current Rating” can have a wide range of values for the same AWG size. The amperage
value is dependent on the type of wire used, mainly the insulation’s properties, for example 4
AWG copper can vary from 70 to 220 amps, 1/0 AWG can vary from 125 to 399 amps, these
values can vary even further depending on the ambient temperature, and how many wires are in
a bundle. To be conservative choose the lower value to be safe. 4AWG=70A, 1/0AWG=125A,
4/0AWG=195A, 250MCM=215A, 400MCM=280A. The final decision should be determined by
the power engineer at the site since so many factors are dependent on country/local electrical
codes and the type of wire that is available. The other thing to consider in choosing the proper
size wire is the voltage loss due to wire resistance and length, loss should be kept to a minimum.
This information is based on numbers found in the 1996 National Electrical Code (NEC).

The PCU’s main functions are to collect and transmit alarm information to the
ICM3 and to display alarm status from ICM3, secondary functions include
clock distribution and distribution of network management port to adjacent
shelves.

There are two variants of the Peripheral Control Unit, PCU and PCU2. The
only difference between the two is that PCU2 provides a +5V output in
addition to performing the tasks carried out by PCU.

The PCU is plugged in the slot P of AN-2000 IB and is hot swappable.

The PCU implements the following functions:

• Collect alarms internal to the shelf: 6 fan alarms, 1 temperature alarm,


circuit break alarm and connect with PDP 200.
• Collect external alarms from 8 general-purpose sources, defined by
specific customer configuration. Both slot A and slot B receive signals
from external alarm input.
• Communicate status to ICM3 via internal serial bus.
• Provide management traffic connectivity. A 4-port hub, two of the
ports are permanently connected with the management port from slot
A and slot B. The remaining two ports could be used to daisy chain the
shelf allowing 5 shelves to be managed through one connection.
• Buffer and distribute clock from central office to ICM3 and adjacent
shelf, the clock type is Annex C or E1 based on population option.
One RJ-45 for external clock input and one RJ-45 for external clock

3.12 ICM3 - IP Concentration Module


The ICM3 is a single-slot common module that can occupy slots “A” and/or
“B”. The ICM3 aggregates all the traffic from the ADSL line cards to the
Gigabit Ethernet WAN interface. The ICM3 provides overall management for
all line modules. It also contains an on-board switching engine that supports
wire-speed, layer-two packet switching among line modules, and Gigabit
Ethernet trunk interfaces. In the AN-2000 IB, ICM3 modules can be
configured in both non-protected or 1+1 protected modes.

The ICM3 module stores the boot image and configuration parameters for all
the line modules within the shelf; it also acts as a proxy for all the
management activities between Netman and the line modules. The following
are management features of the ICM3 module:

• Provides software download to line modules


• Supports virtual module configuration
• Accepts external clock and provides Annex-C clock to line modules
• Performs local management for the shelf
The ICM3 module is a layer-2 switch that supports the STP algorithm. This
module supports up to 8 thousand MAC entries and has a buffering capacity
of up to 6 million packets.

The ICM3 module connects sixteen Fast Ethernet (FE) interfaces to the
backplane. Each FE interface connects through the backplane to one FE port
on each line card. It also provides four additional FE interfaces that connect to
the optional, external ICM Ethernet adapter that is located at the rear of the
chassis.
Each ICM3 module is equipped with 2 external Gigabit Ethernet (GE) ports
that are accessible via the module’s faceplate. These ports are used to
aggregate traffic from the sixteen FE line modules and the four FE external
Ethernet interfaces that connect to the ICM. GE interfaces provide load-
sharing as well as redundant protection through link aggregation.

RDBMS. These include:

Back-end server: Provides database transaction and encapsulation service.


Front-end server: Provides client session management services.
Data Base Server: Maintains a centralized data base.
The front-end servers support a large number of clients and the management
servers support management of large networks, achieving scalability on both
the size of the networks and systems that can be managed and the number of
clients that connect to the servers. There can be more than one deployment of
each one of these servers to achieve massive scalability. The servers can be
deployed with some redundancy so that any failure results in fail-over to other
server components, thus making the Netman highly available.

Netman4000 enables building of scalable, high-performance, cross-platform


management solutions by providing a multi-tier, database-driven platform to
build your applications. This section explains the different application
architectures you could have, i.e. single server architecture & distributed
server architecture.

3.24.1 Single Server Application Architecture


When you are looking to building a management application with the
following characteristics:

Small number of clients (depending on the type of client and the load) will be
exercising the server at the same time.

The data collection, status polling and event processing requirements are
modest.

Then you should design your management solution to follow the single server
architecture. The following diagram gives an overview of the single server
architecture.

Figure 3-41: Netman4000 Client Server Architecture

In the single server application architecture, the middle tier of the


management solution (servers) built on the Netman is deployed to run in one
Java Virtual Machine (JVM) process. This is deployed on a JRE (Java
Runtime Environment) or in a J2EE server environment (like WebLogic or
JBoss).

3.24.2 Distributed Server Application Architecture


For a highly scalable management solution where a large number of clients
access the management data from the NOCs, distributed server architecture is
recommended. In the distributed server architecture, the middle tier of the
management solution is distributed to run on multiple systems on the network.
There can be multiple front-end servers to scale to a large number of clients.
Based on scalability requirements, the back end server can also be run in a
single server or multiple servers. There can be multiple management servers,
based on the data collection, status polling and event processing capabilities,
required out of the management solution. The servers support fail-over and
load balancing capabilities. There is an option of rich, thin clients based on
Java or thin clients based on HTML. The client session management services
are deployed in the front-end servers and they access the back-end business
logic APIs using RMI or messaging.

The following diagram gives an overview of the distributed server


architecture.

3.25 Access Levels and methods for CLI


To prevent unauthorized changes to the system, there are various operational
levels of CLI. The operational levels and their privileges are as listed below:

Normal level

• Normal level commands are for everyday system monitoring.

• Normal level user is able to perform everyday system monitoring.


Regular user refers to any user who does not use “admin” as login
name.

Privileged level

• Privileged level commands are used for system configuration. User


obtains privileged operational level by logging in with “enable”
command followed by the correct “enable password”.

Administrator level

• Administrator level commands are used for user account management.


User obtains administrator operational level by logging in with
“admin” command followed by the correct “admin password”.

Access method

• The CLI can be accessed by either of the two methods:

• Any emulation software such as HyperTerminal on the management


station. The management station is connected to the console port of the
network element.

• Using any Telnet TCP/IP package from a remote management station.


The network element must have network connectivity with the Telnet
client.

5.4 Environmental Standards


5.4.1 Altitude and Air Pressure
At altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,525 meters), the maximum temperature limit reduces
by 1° Fahrenheit for each 1,000 feet (305 meters) of elevation above 5,000 feet (1,525
meters). For example: at sea level, the maximum temperature limit is 122° F (50°
Celsius).

The normal operating air pressure range is: 9.4 to 15.2 psi (lbs. per sq. in.) (648 to
1,048 millibars). The system operates satisfactorily at an altitude of –60 to +3962
meters with reference to sea level.

5.4.2 Temperature and Humidity


Install the equipment in a well-ventilated area. Maximum equipment performance is
achieved at an ambient room temperature between 32 and 122° F (0° and 50° C).

The relative non-condensing humidity range is < 95% at up to 84° F (29° C). Above
this, maximum relative humidity decreases from 95% down to 32% at 122° F (50° C).
Installations outside these limits may reduce system life or affect operation. The
recommended temperature and humidity range is 65° to 85° F (18° to 29° C) at 20 to
60% relative humidity.

The system operates satisfactorily within the temperature range of 0 to +50°C.

5.4.3 Air Purity


Do not install the cabinet where the air may be contaminated by excessive dust, lint,
carbon particles, paper fiber contaminants, or metallic contaminants. Corrosive gases
above the levels in Table 5-1 shown below must be avoided.

Please refer to Chapter 4 for details on EMC and Safety Standards.

5.5.1 Safety with Electricity


When installing power feeds to the product’s input power terminals and/or performing
routine power maintenance, ensure that you:

• Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the
emergency power-off switch for the room in which you are working.

• Disconnect all power and external cables before installing or removing a chassis.

• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist.

• Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the
equipment unsafe.

• Never install equipment that appears damaged.

• Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist floors,
ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

• Read and understand the power procedures you are performing.

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Preparation 5-5

• Take the necessary precautions and use the correct insulated tools for the intended
function.

• A tripped circuit breaker indicates that an over-current event has probably


occurred. Before resetting the circuit breaker, service personnel must:

• Determine the parts of product fed by the circuit breaker.

• Determine if there are any obvious causes for the trip occurring in the
affected parts and associated wiring. For example, signs or odors associated
with an overheated component.

• Verify that the configuration of the power distribution elements as per the
installation instructions.

In addition, use the guidelines that follow when working with any equipment that is
disconnected from a power source, but still connected to telephone wiring or other
network cabling.

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is specifically
designed for wet locations.

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has
been disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

5.5.1.1 Using Redundant Power


If your system includes an optional redundant (second) power supply, connect each of
the two power supplies to different input power sources. Failure to do so makes the
system susceptible to total power failure in the event that one of the power supplies
fails.

5.5.2 Dissipating static electricity


Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage occurs when electronic cards or components are
mishandled and can result in complete or intermittent failures. The level of static
electricity increases on your body when you move a short distance. Note the following
guidelines before you install or service the system:
• Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or ankle strap when handling electronic
components. Connect one end of the strap to an ESD jack or an unpainted metal
component on the system (such as a captive installation screw).

AN-2000 IB
5-6 Preparation AN-2000 IB

• Handle cards by the faceplates and edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit
board and connector pins.

• Always tighten the installation screws on the cards when you are installing them.
These screws prevent accidental removal of the cards, provide proper grounding
for the system, and help to ensure that the PCI bus connectors are properly seated
in the backplane.

• When removing a card, place the removed card component-side-up on an antistatic


surface or in a static shielding bag. If the card is to be returned to the factory,
immediately place it in a static shielding bag.
• Avoid contact between the cards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects the
card from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause
damage. Make sure the clothing does not touch the following:

• Network element shelves (including the metal frame and cover)


• Cables connected to circuit packs
• Circuit packs
The grounding strap quickly dissipates charges to ground. You can use a grounding
strap that expands at the wrist. Connect the grounding cord to the grounding plug
provided on the cabinet or shelf.

For electrostatic discharge protection, your company can install bays on conductive
floor coverings and provide conductive shoes or heel grounders to all personnel.

) Note : For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The
measurement should be between 1 and 10 Megohms (MOhms).

5.5.4 Handling, installing, or replacing circuit packs


When you handle, install, or replace circuit packs, take the following precautions:

• Wear a wrist strap or other static-grounding device before you remove a circuit
pack from its package or from the shelf.

• Protect each circuit pack that is not in active use on the shelf by storing each one
separately in a shielded box or bag.

• Handle each circuit pack by the faceplate or stiffener.

• Do not touch the solder side of the circuit pack, the pin connector, or the
components.

• Do not stack circuit packs on or against each other.

• Inspect all pin connectors on each circuit pack for damage before use. Inspect all
circuit packs for damage before inserting into the shelf.

• Do not force circuit packs into their packaging material.

• Allow each circuit pack to come to room temperature before you insert the
component into the shelf.

• Hot surfaces can cause burns. When handling such circuit packs, take the necessary
precautions and read the specific instructions for that circuit pack. For example,
wear insulating gloves when you remove these circuit packs.

5.5.5 General Safety and Personal Protection


Below mentioned are some of the safety and personal protection guidelines and not a
substitute for good engineering for administrative controls or good work practices.
• Are employees trained and/or experienced in the safe operation of equipment,
machines, or tools?

• Are employees trained in first aid and CPR?

• Are protective measures in place for those working aloft to ensure that no
equipment will fall and injure people below?

• Are employees aware of proper battery handling procedures?

• Are the proper tools used for the job and are all portable and power tools either
grounded or double insulated?

AN-2000 IB
5-8 Preparation AN-2000 IB

• Are employees aware of the location of the nearest fire extinguisher and how to use
it?

• Are employees aware of emergency evacuation procedures?

• Is there a fully-stocked first aid kit available for use by employees?

• Is the head protection worn when working below others, while aloft or near heavy
equipment, in trench, or near electric power?

• Is the eye protection worn while engaged in any type of activity where an eye
injury exists?

• Is foot protection worn when exposed to falling objects, crushing penetrating


actions, or hot corrosive substances?

• Is hand protection used for workers exposed to cuts burns or harmful chemical
agents?

• Are protective aprons and safety goggles available and in use when handling
batteries?

• Keep tools and chassis components off the floor and away from foot traffic.

• Clear the area of possible hazards, such as moist floors, ungrounded power
extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

• Keep the area around the chassis free from dust and foreign conductive material
(such as metal flakes from nearby construction activity).

5.5.6 Safety Training


Many standards organizations explicitly require training employees in the safety and
health aspects of their job. Certain standards make it the employer's responsibility to
limit certain job assignments to employees who are "certified," "competent," or
"qualified" - meaning that they have had special previous training, in or out of the
workplace. The term "designated" personnel means selected or assigned by the
employer or the employer's representative as being qualified to perform specific duties.
Training is an essential part of every employer's safety and health program for
protecting workers from injuries and illnesses. Many researchers conclude that those
who are new on the job have a higher rate of accidents and injuries than more
experienced workers. If ignorance of specific job hazards and of proper work practices
is even partly to blame for this higher injury rate, then training will help to provide a
solution.

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Preparation 5-9

This means that the training to be given must have established goals and objectives’
regarding what is to be accomplished. Subsequent to the training, an evaluation would
be conducted to verify that the employees understood the subjects presented or
acquired the desired skills. If the established goals and objectives of the training
program were not achieved as expected, the employer then would revise the training
program to make it more effective, or conduct more frequent refresher training or some
combination of these. The length and complexity of standards may make it difficult to
find all the references to training. So, to help employers, safety and health
professionals, training directors, and others with a need to know, training-related
requirements must be excerpted and collected from various publications. It is usually a
good idea for the employer to keep a record of all safety and health training. Records
can provide evidence of the employer's good faith and compliance with safety
standards. Documentation can also supply an answer to one of the first questions an
accident investigator will ask: "Was the injured employee trained to do the job?"

Training in the proper performance of a job is time and money well spent, and the
employer might regard it as an investment rather than an expense. An effective
program of safety and health training for workers can result in fewer injuries and
illnesses, better morale, and lower insurance premiums, among other benefits.

5.5.7 Chassis Safety Recommendations


The following guidelines will help to ensure your safety and protect the equipment.
This list does not cover all potentially hazardous situations, so be alert.
• The installation of equipment should be in compliance with national and local
electrical codes.
• Never attempt to lift an object that might be too heavy for you to lift by yourself.
• Always turn all power supplies off (O) and unplug all power cables before opening
the chassis.
• Always unplug the power cable before installing or removing a chassis.
• Keep the chassis area clear and dust free during and after installation.
• Keep tools and chassis components away from walk areas.
• Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry (including rings and chains), or other items
that could get caught in the chassis. Fasten your tie or scarf and sleeves.
• For DC-input equipment, a DC circuit breaker is required for the input DC power
source. This circuit breaker should protect against short-circuit and overcurrent
faults in accordance with local electrical codes.
• For DC-input equipment, a readily accessible disconnect device must be
incorporated in the fixed wiring.

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Preparation 5-11

5.5.8 Interface Safety Recommendations


Following are safety instructions that you must follow when installing xDSL
Broadband equipment.
• Some adapters and interfaces might contain Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV)
circuitry. Ensure that attachments at the interconnection ports of the apparatus are
also SELV circuits. (SELV circuits are so designed and protected that, under both
normal conditions and a likely fault condition, the voltage that can be drawn is not
hazardous.)
• Always disconnect the chassis from the power supply before removing any covers.
• Do not work on the system or connect and disconnect cables during a lighting
storm.
• Always disconnect the main product chassis from any analogue telephone circuits
or ISDN (where applicable) before removing any covers.
) Note : The main chassis should always be connected to earth ground during normal use.

5.5.9 Ensuring Overcurrent Protection


The system relies on the protective devices in the building installation for protection
against short-circuit, overcurrent, and earth (grounding) fault. Ensure that the
protective devices in the building installation are properly rated to protect the system,
and that they comply with national and local codes.

5.5.10 Ensuring Proper Airflow


Follow these guidelines to ensure proper airflow:
• Install the system in an open rack whenever possible. If installation in an enclosed
rack is unavoidable, ensure that the rack has adequate ventilation.
• Maintain ambient airflow to ensure normal operation. If the airflow is blocked or
restricted, or if the intake air is too warm, an over temperature condition can occur.
• Allow at least 2 feet (600 mm) of clearance around the ventilation openings of the
chassis.
• Avoid placing the system in an overly congested rack or directly next to another
equipment rack. Heat exhaust from other equipment can enter the inlet air vents
and cause an over temperature condition.
• Equipment near the bottom of a rack might generate excessive heat that is drawn
upward and into the intake ports of the equipment above. The warm air can cause
an over temperature condition in the equipment above.
• Ensure that cables from other equipment do not obstruct the airflow through the
chassis or impair access to the power supplies or cards. Route cables away from

AN-2000 IB
5-12 Preparation AN-2000 IB

field-replaceable components to avoid disconnecting cables unnecessarily for


equipment maintenance or upgrades.

5.5.11 Stabilizing the System


Follow these guidelines to stabilize rack-mounted systems:
• Install any stabilizers that came with your equipment rack before mounting or
servicing the system in the rack.
• Load the rack from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest system at the bottom.
• Do not stack the system on top of any other equipment. If the system falls, it can
cause severe bodily injury and damage the equipment.
• Ensure that the shelf is constructed to support the weight and dimensions of the
chassis if you are using an equipment shelf.
• Ensure that the weight of the chassis does not make the rack unstable. Secure telco
racks with ceiling brackets if the rack is populated with heavy equipment.
• Bolt the rack to the floor for stability.

5.5.12 Lifting / Handling the System


Follow these guidelines when lifting the system:
• Disconnect all power and external cables before lifting the system.
• Ensure that your footing is solid and the weight of the system is evenly distributed
between your feet.
• Lift the system slowly, keeping your back straight. Lift with your legs, not with
your back. Bend at the knees, not at the waist.
• Do not attempt to lift the system with the handles on the power supplies, front
panel, or on any of the cards. These handles are not designed to support the weight
of the system.
• Depending on the weight of the system, more than one person might be required to
lift it.
The figure below shows the number of people needed to lift the system by weight.

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Preparation 5-13

Figure: Safely Lifting the System

5.6 Storing circuit packs


Leave spare circuit packs in the original shielded containers until you need the circuit
packs. To prevent damage to circuit packs while in storage, follow the procedures that
prevent:
• Accumulation of dirt or dust on the pin connectors
• Damage to the printed-circuit board or its components
• Warpage (printed-circuit boards should be stored in areas where the humidity
doesn’t exceed 95% and the temperature range is -40°C to 70°C)

5.7 Transporting circuit packs


When you transport circuit packs, pack each circuit pack in its original shielded
container and padding, or in a shielded bag. If you lose the original material, use
another shielded container.

5.8 Regulating radio-frequency emissions


The following regulatory notices apply to all UTStarcom Inc. products.
Noise is introduced into the system through cables, or any external interfaces.

Electromagnetic fields near the system control equipment may cause system noise.
Place the system and cable runs in areas where high electromagnetic field strengths do
not exist. Radio transmitters (AM or FM), television stations, induction heaters,
motors with commutators of 0.25 horsepower (187 watts) or greater, and similar
equipment are leading causes of interference.

Small tools with universal motors are generally not a problem when they operate on
separate power lines. Motors without commutators generally do not cause interference.
Field strengths below 1.0 volt per meter are unlikely to cause interference. Measure

AN-2000 IB
5-14 Preparation AN-2000 IB

weak fields with a tunable meter. Measure field strengths greater than 1.0 volt per
meter with a broadband meter.

Estimate field strengths of radio transmitters by dividing the square root of the emitted
power in kilowatts by the distance from the antenna in kilometers. This yields the
approximate field strength in volts per meter and is relatively accurate for distances
greater than about half a wavelength (150 meters for a frequency of 1000 kHz).

This equipment can generate, use, and emit radio-frequency energy. If you do not
install and use this equipment according to the instruction manual, this equipment can
cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area can cause harmful interference. In this event, you must correct the
interference at the cost to your company.

5.9 Controlling equipment access


Install all equipment in restricted access location areas. . The location restriction must
be in accordance with international safety standard EN 60950. In the context of these
requirements, a restricted access location is further defined as a location:
• Where access is restricted to only trained personnel

• To which unsupervised members of the general public are not admitted

The ambient temperature of the equipment location must not exceed 50°C.

5.10 Installing and Servicing the System


CAUTION
It is mandatory that –48 Volt return be grounded at the power source.
Connect all grounds and verify before proceeding with further installation.
Follow these guidelines when installing and servicing the system:
• Disconnect all power and external cables before installing the system.
• Install the system in compliance with your local and national electrical codes:
• Do not work alone under potentially hazardous conditions.
• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the
equipment unsafe.
• Do not touch the backplane or midplane with your hand or metal tools.
• Remove all jewelry (including rings and chains) or other items that could get
caught in the system or heat up and cause serious burns.

AN-2000 IB
AN-2000 IB Preparation 5-15

5.11 Disconnecting Power


CAUTION
It is mandatory that the grounding connections be removed only after all
other connections on the system have been disconnected.
Follow these guidelines when disconnecting power:
• Locate the emergency power-off switch for the room before working with the
system.
• Turn off the power and disconnect the power from the circuit when working with
components that are not hot-swappable or when working near the system
backplane or midplane. If the system does not have an on/off switch, unplug the
power cord.
• De-energize the system completely by disconnecting the power connection to all
power supplies.
• For DC power supplies, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services
the DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the off position, and tape the switch
handle of the circuit breaker in the off position.
• Do not touch the power supply when the power cord is connected. Line voltages
are present within the power supply even when the power switch is off and the
power cord is connected.

5.12 Working with Lasers

Warning Invisible laser radiation may be emitted from the end of the unterminated fiber cable
or connector. Do not view directly with optical instruments. Viewing the laser output with
certain optical instruments (for example, eye loupes, magnifiers, and microscopes) within a
distance of 100 mm may pose an eye hazard.

Warning Use of controls, adjustments, or performing procedures other than those specified may
result in hazardous radiation exposure.

5.13 Preventing EMI


When you run wires for any significant distance in an electromagnetic field,
electromagnetic interference (EMI) can occur between the field and the signals on the
wires. Be aware of the following:
• Bad plant wiring can result in RFI (radio frequency interference).

AN-2000 IB
5-16 Preparation AN-2000 IB

• Strong EMI, especially when it is caused by lightning or radio transmitters, can


destroy the signal drivers and receivers in the system, and can even create an
electrical hazard by conducting power surges through lines and into the system.
To predict and remedy strong EMI, consult RFI experts.

5.14 Covering Empty Slots


Ensure that all cards, faceplates, and covers are in place. Filler motherboards and filler
modules and cover panels are used to:
• Prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis
• Help contain EMI (electromagnetic interference) that might disrupt other
equipment
• Direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis
• Protect the backplane from dust

5.15 Disposing of the System


Dispose of the system and its components (including batteries) as specified by all
local/national laws and regulations.
