Components of Service Processing Subsystem

The service processing subsystem consists of the SPUa, SPUb, DPUb,
and DPUe boards. The SPUa and SPUb boards process signaling. The
DPUb and DPUe boards process services.
Service processing subsystems can be increased as required, according to
the linear superposition principle. Thus, the service processing capability of

the BSC6900 is improved.
Service processing subsystems communicate with each other through the
switching subsystem to form a resource pool and perform tasks

cooperatively.

Clock Synchronization Subsystem

The clock synchronization subsystem provides the following clock sources :
Building Integrated Timing Supply System (BITS) clock

Global Positioning System (GPS) clock
External 8 kHz clock
LINE clock
All rights reserved
Page 36
External Clocks
The external clocks of the BSC6900 are of two types:
BITS Clock
The BITS clock signals are of three types: 2 MHz, 2 Mbit/s, and 1.5 Mbit/s. The 2 MHz and 2 Mbit/s clock
signals are E1 clock signals, and the 1.5 Mbit/s clock signals are T1 clock signals.
The BITS clock has two input modes: BITS0 and BITS1. BITS0 and BITS1 correspond to the CLKIN0 and
CLKIN1 ports on the GCUa/GCGa board respectively. The BSC6900 obtains the BITS clock signals through
the CLKIN0 or CLKIN1 port on the GCUa/GCGa board.
External 8 kHz Clock Through the COM1 port on the GCUa/GCGa board, the BSC6900 obtains 8 kHz standard
clock signals from an external device.
LINE Clock
The LINE clock is an 8 kHz clock that is transmitted from an interface board in the MPS to the GCUa/GCGa board
through the backplane channel. The LINE clock has two input modes: LINE0 and LINE1.
GPS Clock
The GPS clock provides 1 Pulse Per Second (PPS) clock signals. The BSC6900 obtains the GPS clock signals
from the GPS system. The GCGa board is configured with a GPS card, and the BSC6900 receives the GPS signals
at the ANT port on the GCGa board.

LMT
The LMT is a computer installed with Huawei Local
Maintenance Terminal software. It runs under the Windows XP

Professional operating system. The RNC can be configured
with one or more LMTs. The LMT is connected to the OMUa
directly or through the hub and to the alarm box through a
serial cable.
OMUa Board
The OMUa board is the Back Administration Module (BAM) of
the RNC. The OMUa boards are connected to external devices

through Ethernet cables.
All rights reserved
Page 73

The OMUa board serves as a bridge between Front
Administration Module (FAM) and BAM of the RNC. Based on

the OMUa board, the OM network of the RNC is divided into
the following networks:
Internal network: serves the communication between the
OMUa and the RNC host.

External network: serves the communication between the
OMUa board and the external device, such as the OM terminal

LMT or M2000.
SCUa Board
The SCUa is the switching and control board of the RNC. It is
responsible for OM of its housing MPS subrack or EPS

OMU use this network port to connect with the internet directly. Its more simple
compared with the IBM server
Support two paths backboard SERDES to the GE port and the host and standby FE
path of the switch board, host and standby OMU OMU and SCU are connected by
this port
OMU supports two hard disk interfaces by using the panel network port , connects
with two hard disk outside, and be mirror with each other to Raid 1
On the panel of the OMUa board, there are four USB2.0 ports and one BMC com
port can used to system com port

OMUa board can be installed in slots 0 to 3, slots 20 to 23, or slots 24 to 27 in the
MPS. Slots 24 to 27 are recommended.

The Y-shaped 75-ohm coaxial cable/ 120-ohm coaxial cable used in the RNC
has two DB44 connectors at one end and has a structure of 2 x 8 cores. That is,
the 75-ohm coaxial cable is composed of two cables, each of which contains eight
micro coaxial cables. The 16 micro coaxial cables form eight E1 RX/TX links.
