Backplane of the Subrack

The backplane implements the communication between interfaces of boards. The backplane supports
the following interfaces or buses: Update interface, Fabric interface, Base interface, intelligent platform
management bus (IPMB) bus, and power bus.
Quantity and position: A subrack provides a backplane that is located between the front board and
rear board in a subrack.
Function: The backplane implements the communication between interfaces of boards.
Page 17
Fan Box
Function: The fan assembly implements heat dissipation for the OSTA2.0 subracks. The fan
assembly uses the forced cooling mode. The air intake is at the front bottom part of the chassis
and the air exhaust vent is at the rear top part of the chassis.
The T8280 fan assembly uses the integrated and dual-layer design. That is, two fan
assemblies are configured in each subrack to avoid heat dissipation problems due to single
point of failure. The fans support N+1 redundancy mode. When a fan fails, the system
performance is not affected.
As shown in the figure, the fans are located at the bottom of the chassis in a horizontal manner.
Page 18
Overview of Slots in the Subrack

The backplane is installed in the middle of the subrack. The front boards and rear boards are inserted on the
backplane. The front boards provide power to the rear boards and the rear boards function as rear interface
boards of the front boards. A front board and a rear board work together as a board. If a board does not
require a rear interface board, you do not need to configure the corresponding rear board.
As shown in the figure, the subrack provides 14 service slots in total. Slots 6-7 host the SWUs and other slots
host the UPBs.
Dimensions of the front board: 355.6 mm x 280 mm x 30.5 mm
Dimensions of the rear board: 355.6 mm x 70 mm x 30.5 mm
Two USN9810 boards installed in inconsecutive slots work in an active/standby mode. Enhanced packet
forward unit (EPU) boards use the update buses. According to the ATCA platform, the update bus requires
board installation in consecutive slots. The Enhanced Control Plane Units (ECUs) and OMUs do not use the
update bus. To ensure consistency, the ECUs and OMUs are inserted in consecutive slots.

Power Distribution Box

The USN9810 uses the DPD100-6-10D DC power distribution box. The power distribution box is
installed on the top of the cabinet and provides work power for internal components. The power
distribution box can detect the input power voltage and output power voltage. Upon detecting a
failure, the power distribution box generates an audible and visual alarm.
Specifications: The input voltage of the power distribution box is 48 V DC or 60 V DC power.

Each power input supports the maximum 100 A current. With the processing of internal lightning
protection and overcurrent protection, the power distribution box generates two 10-channel 48 V
DC power. The maximum current of single channel power is 50 A.
Currently, the USN9810 supports dual-channel, dual 2-channel, and dual 3-channel power
distribution boxes. The appearance of these power distribution boxes is the same. The difference is
as below: The extra input terminals on the rear panels of the dual-channel and dual 2-channel are
sealed up using filler panels.

*Front view of a cabinet (The output terminals from

left to right are SW1-SW10.)
The inputs A1 and B1 correspond to the four outputs (SW1 to SW4).
The inputs A2 and B2 correspond to the three outputs (SW5 to SW7).
The inputs A3 and B3 correspond to the three outputs (SW8 to SW10).
The maximum rated output current of a single line is 50 A. The total
output current of each area cannot exceed the input current 100 A.
(A1 indicates area 1, A2 indicates area 2, A3 indicates area 3, B1 is
the backup of area 1, B2 is the backup of area 2, B3 is the backup of
area 3.)
The mapping between output of each line and the subrack is related
to the power supply solution. For details, see the related chapters of
the product description documents.

Cable Connection of the T8290 PDB

By default, different PEMs in the
same subrack are connected to
different PDB output areas. That is,
different terminals in the same
PDB output area are connected to
different subracks. The three lines
of current input in the subrack
come from the line 4, line 7, and
line 10 of the PDB as shown in the
figure on the left.
Advantage: PEMs of the same
type in different subracks share the
same 100 A input, and the current
can be coordinated among the
subracks, which reduces the
impact of power consumption
fluctuation in a single subrack.
* Rear view of a cabinet (The output terminals from

right to left are SW1-SW10.)
The default cable connection of the

PDB may be modified based on
the different power distribution
requirements of the specific project.
For details, see the follow-up
description of each power supply
solution.
T8290 Power Distribution Module

Slots in a subrack are managed by area. Slots 1 to 6 and SMM 2 are in an area. Slots 7 to 12
and SMM 1 are in an area. The fan and slot 1 or slot 13 are in an area.
The dual 3 power supply is adopted. PEM A or PEM B work in the 1+1 backup mode. Each
PEM provides three lines of input, A1 to A3 or B1 to B3. The maximum input current of each
line is 50 A.
The designed maximum power consumption of the T8290 subrack is 6000 W. The USN9.2
T8290 or ESU architecture consumes a maximum power of only 3500 W.

Time Synchronization
Note:
1. The RTC module is located on
the OMU rear board (USI7).
2. The OMU sets and reads board
time using the CPU.
3. The intra-subrack and intersubrack boards synchronize time
using the NTP protocol on the
Base plane.
4. The RTC module provides a
level-2 (0.4 PPM) oscillator that
ensures time precision upon NTP
server failure.

Process: Universal Process

Process
Function
MON
The MON is a monitoring process. When other processes are abnormal

and terminated, the MON starts these processes. The MON can detect the
running status of other processes. When the heartbeat connection of a
process is interrupted, the MON determines that the process is abnormal
and restarts the process.
IMU
The IMU is a board management process and manages board hardware

resources. For example, the IMU can periodically detect the CPU
temperature and voltage, detect network port failure, and query board time.
The IMU can also work as a communication proxy between the service
process and the OMU. The IMU forwards the messages exchanged
between the service process and the OMU, including the configuration,
maintenance, alarm, and performance measurement messages.

Function
OMP
The OMP is an O&M process and performs adaptation and proxy

function for the CGP OM.
SMU
The SMU is a system management process.

Process
Function
SPP
The SPP is the main process for processing SGSN or MME services on the control
plane and controlling various services.
SGP
The SGP processes the signaling transmitted over the Iu and S1-MME interfaces
on the control plane and SIGTRAN protocol stacks.
GBP
The GBP processes the data transmitted over the Gb interface.
LLP
The LLP processes the MTP and FR links.
CDP
The CDP supports charging data storage and provides Ga interfaces. The CDP
processes half-finished CDRs into finished CDRs. The CDP reports CDRs to the
CG. When all the connected CGs fail, the CDP saves the CDRs in the local hard
disk.
LCP
The LCP controls the heartbeat handshake between the license control center and
the Gb interface.
UIP
The UIP stores and queries user indexes.
