Description
Native represents the advanced native transmission
technology while Hybrid means hybrid transmission of
non-mapping native services. The Hybrid & Native function
enables the native Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) service
and the native Ethernet service to dynamically share the

Hybrid & Native

air interface bandwidth, and mapping between them is not

microwave

required. The functions has the following advantages:

transmission

Reduces the transmission delay and increases the


system transmission efficiency.

Reduces unnecessary cost of frame encapsulation and


increases the radio bandwidth utilization.

service switching function and the Synchronous Digital
Hierarchy (SDH) Multiplexer (MUX) function are embedded
in the NR8250, facilitating service switching.
ACM is a technology that can automatically adjust the

WLAN

coding and modulation mode in accordance with channel


Adaptive Coding and
Modulation (ACM)

quality. When channel quality is good, the ACM function


improves the system transmission efficiency and frequency
spectrum utilization. When channel quality is deteriorated,
the ACM function ensures the link reliability of high-priority
services.

Automatic

Function

Description
With this function, the contents that are unchanged but

Ethernet frame

repeatedly transmitted in Ethernet data frames, such as

header compression

MAC address and IP header, are replaced by short bytes at

on air interface

the transmitting end. This function increases the Ethernet


service transmission throughput for a fixed bandwidth.
l

The NR8250 supports Ethernet load balance and XPIC


to implement large-capacity transmission.

The Ethernet load balance function is implemented


by Link Aggregation Group (LAG) or Physical Link
Aggregation (PLA). LAG uses the HASH algorithm to

Load balance

calculate source/destination addresses of data flows to


determine the transmission channel for each service
flow. Load balance can also be implemented based
on IP addresses. PLA slices each service flow in
accordance with a fixed length, and averagely allocates
such data slices to each transmission channel.
The NR8250 supports TDM service cross connections,

Service cross

that is, cross connections from E1 to STM-1 and from

connections

STM-1 to E1. The maximum cross-connection capacity is


3200E13200E1.
l

The NR8250 supports SNCP switchover when the


work mode of air interface is set to E1 or STM-1. It
improves the microwave link transmission reliability.

SNCP uses 1+1 protection mode. In other words, each


transmission direction has two different routes: working
route and protection route. Service data is transferred

TDM

between two NEs through SNCP, that is, the NE at the

Sub-Network

transmitting end transmits service data to the NE at

Connection

the receiving end through the working subnetwork and

Protection (SNCP)

protection subnetwork in bridge mode. The NE at the

for TDM service

receiving end selects the service data from one of the


two routes based on the switchover principle.
l

The SNCP function can be flexibly applied in protection


configuration for various networks, including trunk
network, relay network, and access network. It can
also be applied in various network topologies, including
tree network, ring network, and mesh network.

3.2 Management Plane Signal Flow


Control signals of the NR8250 are transmitted in the in-band mode. Control signals and
user data are separated by Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN).
l The control signal flow is input from the Ethernet board or the IF board (RMU), and
forwarded to the main control board (RCU) for switching.
l In accordance with MAC addresses or IP addresses contained in the control signal
flow, the main control board determines whether the control signals should be
processed by the software of the main control board. The control plane data to be
processed is switched to the CPU of the main control board for processing.

4.1 System Clock Principle


4.1.1 Clock Synchronization Types
For the input/output clock sources supported by the NR8250, refer to Table 4-1.
Table 4-1 Input/Output Clock Sources Supported by NR8250
Clock Source Type

Description

Standard Followed

BITS clock

The BITS clock signal is inputted from the CLK

ITU-T G.813 standard

IN/OUT port on the RCU panel. The BITS clock


has two modes: 2 Mbps and 2 MHz. Users can
configure the clock mode through software.
SyncE synchronization

The NR8250 supports the Master-output/Slave-

ITU-T G.8262

gigabit/megabit

input mode. The synchronization Ethernet clock

standard

Ethernet clock

signal is inputted/outputted from the gigabit or


megabit Ethernet interface of RCU/RTUH/RTUN.

Synchronous Digital

The NR8250 extracts the clock signal from STM-N

Hierarchy (SDH) clock

physical fiber (namely, the clock signal is extracted

ITU-T G.813 standard

from the STM1/STM4 optical service inputted


from the electrical interface of RTUB), and it has
nothing to do with the service that the optical fiber
bears. The clock signal outputted from STM-1/4 is
forwarded to the lower-level NEs.

Clock Source Type

Description

Standard Followed

1588v2 clock

The NR8250 supports the 1588v2 protocol. It

ITU-T G.8263

extracts the clock signal from the 1588v2 Slave

standard

interface, inputs/outputs it through the gigabit


Ethernet interface of RCU/RTUH/RTUN, and uses
the signal as the system reference clock source.
The supported clock types include common clock,
edge clock, and transparent clock.
l

If an NR8250 is used as a secondary common


clock, it synchronizes with upper-level NEs
through the 1588v2 protocol. If an NR8250 is
used as a primary common clock, it outputs
the clock signal to the lower-level NEs through
the 1588v2 protocol.

If an NR8250 is used as a transparent


clock, it satisfies the clock synchronization
requirement of terminal devices through the
point-to-point existence delay modification
for 1588v2 packets that are transparently
transferred in the microwave network.

If an NR8250 is used as an edge clock, it


forwards the clock synchronization signal in
the microwave network to satisfy the clock
synchronization requirement of terminal
devices.

Plesiochronous Digital

The NR8250 extracts the clock signal from the E1

Hierarchy (PDH) clock

interface of RTUB/RTUC/RTUH, and uses it as

ITU-T G.823 standard

the system reference clock source.

4.1.2 Clock Synchronization Principles


A microwave network that consists of NR8250s bears SDH services and radio services. It
is a synchronization network, synchronizing time in the primary/secondary synchronization
mode.
An NE node in the microwave network is taken as the primary clock, and synchronizes
with the upper-level high-precision clock. It is configured with a high-precision local crystal
oscillator, which is used for keeping the clock or as the primary clock when no external
high-precision clock is available. Other NE nodes in the network trace the primary clock,
and control corresponding lower-level NE nodes in accordance with the primary clock.
Figure 4-1 shows the clock signal transferring diagram of the NR8250.

signal to IDU2 through microwave air interface, synchronization Ethernet, or optical
fiber, and works as the reference clock source of IDU2.
2. IDU2 can lock its system clock to the reference clock source and outputs the system
clock signal to implement the clock transferring function.

4.2 Power Supply Principle


4.2.1 Power Supply Connection
The NR8250 uses the standard -48 V communication power supply. The IDU and relevant
ODUs use different power supplies.
l The IDU gets the -48 V power supply from the PM module, which supports the 1+1
backup function and has a maximum power of 300 W.
l An ODU gets power supply from the IF interface of the RMU board, which gets
power supply from the RPUA board. The maximum power of an RPUA is 210 W,
and an RPUA can provide power supply to six ODUs at most. The RPUA board
performs functions including Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) protection for
circuits, reverse-connection prevention, and O-Ring.

4.2.2 Power Distribution


The PM module provides the 12 V power supply for boards in all slots. The RPUA board
provides the -48 V power supply for boards in slots 3 to 6. Figure 4-2 shows the power

4.3.5 Monitoring and Maintenance


The monitoring and maintenance module helps users not only find all faults of the
equipment but also troubleshoot the faults in a timely manner. It ensures proper
operations of the equipment.

Equipment Monitoring
l

The maintenance terminal provides all alarm information of the equipment and
monitors the status and operations of the equipment in real time. It handles all
abnormal alarms that affect the equipment operations in a timely manner to ensure
that the equipment can operate properly.
Alarm information is divided into four levels:

critical

major

minor

warning

Alarm levels enable users to handle critical alarms as soon as possible.


l

Indicators are designed on the power board, main control board, and each controlled
board. The color and flashing frequency of each indicator reflects the operating status
of the corresponding board, whether the board has an alarm, and the alarm level.
When the equipment is being started, the system gives a sound prompt, indicating
whether the equipment is powered on properly. The system also provides sound alarm
and rotating speed alarm for the fans if they are faulty.
The system uses the active/standby configuration. When the active equipment
becomes faulty, the system automatically perform active/standby equipment
switchover to ensure that the system can operate properly.

Equipment Maintenance
l
l

l
l
l

The multi-user operation mode is implemented through the user rights hierarchy.
During the equipment operating process, all alarm information is recorded. When
a fault occurs, users can find the fault causes through the log information and
troubleshoot the fault in a timely manner.
When the equipment is powered down or restarts, the system provides a special alarm
handling policy to ensure that the original alarm information will not be lost after the
equipment is powered on or restarted.
Association or filtering shielding processing is performed for redundant alarms of the
equipment, ensuring that important alarms are provided.
In the LMT system, users check the operating status of the equipment.
In the LMT system, users can check the service performance data of the equipment,
including 15-minute performance data of one day and 24-hour performance data of

sufficient debugging information during the equipment debugging process.
The NR8250 provides a dedicated diagnosis and debugging command mode and
comparatively complete diagnosis and debugging functions. Users can check the
equipment at any time, and remotely find and locate faults.

4.3.7 Software Upgrading


The NR8250 supports software upgrading through Local Maintenance Terminal (LMT) or
Element Management System (EMS).

4.4 Reliability Principle


4.4.1 Hardware Reliability
The NR8250 system uses the redundancy design to improve the hardware reliability.
l

Power supply protection


The IDU and ODUs use different power supplies, and all the power supplies support
1+1 backup protection.

Control-switching-plane active/standby protection


The system supports active/standby protection for the main control board and clock.
When the active board becomes faulty, the standby board is automatically switched
over to operate as the active board. During the active/standby switchover, an
instantaneous service interruption is allowed.

Air interface protection


The system supports three protection modes: 1+1 hot backup protection, 1+1 space
diversity protection, and 1+1 frequency diversity protection.

4.4.2 Software Reliability


l
l

The software development of the NR8250 complies with the Capability Maturity Model
(CMM) specification.
Unified and portable system platform

the hardware features and makes the application layer independent of the hardware.
It provides a unified and portable system platform for various applications.

Hierarchical modularized structure

4-8
SJ-20120611092528-002|20120730 (R1.0)

ZTE Proprietary and Confidential

Chapter 4 System Principles

The NR8250 uses a hierarchical modularized software structure to implement a high


cohesion and low coupling. It reduces the influence of an errored software module on
other software modules to the minimum extent.
l

Uninterrupted upgrading
The NR8250 supports upgrading software by installing the software patch. The
software of a controlled board can be upgraded online without affecting the main
control board. It improves the service transmission capability as well as the system
availability and service quality.

4.4.3 Data Reliability


The NR8250 provides a strict data protection mechanism.
l

It supports real-time synchronous data backup between the active board and the
standby board. When the active board is faulty, the standby board is automatically
switched over to operate as the active board, and its program and data take effect
immediately. Because the standby board's data is consistent with that of the active
board, the upper-layer service transmission will not be affected.
It supports automatically backing up the database of the active board to the Flash
storage area. In this way, the active board can acquire the data directly from the
Flash storage area.
It provides the active/standby 1+1 protection mode of the radio link to ensure the
service transmission data reliability. The active/standby 1+1 protection mode has the
following three types:

1+1 space diversity protection

1+1 frequency diversity protection

1+1 hot backup protection

The version management function enables the system to initiate the version
consistency check periodically. If data inconsistency is found, an alarm is reported,
and the incorrect software version is prohibited to be activated and loaded. The
system also notifies users to re-download the software version package to recover
the data.

In the transmitting direction: Normally, the active ODUs transmit RF signals to the
antennas while the standby ODUs do not transmit signal.

When an active ODU is faulty, the corresponding standby ODU transmits RF


signals to the antenna, and the active ODU does not transmit signal.

When an active RMUC is faulty, the corresponding standby RMUC modulates


signals, and the corresponding standby ODU transmits RF signals to the antenna.
The active ODU does not transmit signal.

In the receiving direction: The system selects one channel of service signals
with better signal quality from the two that are transmitted by the opposite-end
active/standby ODUs.
