4.1 Power Distribution Box

A power distribution box is installed inside each cabinet at the top. The power distribution box provides lightning protection and power surge protection for the four -48 V inputs and supplies two groups of power to the components in the cabinet. Each group has four -48 V outputs and four RTN outputs. The power distribution box also detects the status of input voltage and the output power, and generates audible and visual alarms when faults occur.
4.1.1 Front Panel of the Power Distribution Box

The components on the front panel of the power distribution box are the panel of the Power Allocation Monitoring Unit (PAMU) and the power switches. Figure 4-1 shows the front panel of the power distribution box. Figure 4-1 Front panel of the power distribution box

l l
For details about the PAMU board, see 6.12 PAMU Board. When the power distribution box is reset, the RUN and ALM LEDs turn on at the same time, indicating that the PAMU board is performing self-check. As soon as the self-check is complete, the RUN and ALM LEDs turn off. Then, the RUN and ALM LEDs display the operating status of the power distribution box.
The mute switch is set to determine whether an audible alarm is generated. l l If you set the mute switch to I, the power distribution box generates an audible alarm when it is faulty. If you set the mute switch to O, the power distribution box does not generate any audible alarm when it is faulty.
The front panel of the power distribution box has two LEDs: RUN and ALM. Table 4-1 describes the LEDs on the front panel of the power distribution box.
Table 4-1 LEDs on the front panel of the power distribution box LED RUN Color Green Status ON for 1s and OFF for 1s ON for 0.25s and OFF for 0.25s OFF Description The PAMU board is functional and communicates with the SCUa board properly. The PAMU board is not working or it does not communicate with the SCUa board properly. There is no power supply to the PAMU board or the power distribution box does not work properly. There is no alarm related to the power distribution box. The power distribution box is faulty. During the self-check of the PAMU board, however, the ALM LED is also ON. This indicates that the ALM LED is functional.

l Each subrack provides a total of 28 slots. The 14 slots on the front side of the backplane are numbered from 00 to 13, and those on the rear side from 14 to 27. l Two neighboring slots, such as slot 00 and slot 01 or slot 02 and slot 03, can be configured as a pair of active/standby slots. A pair of active and standby boards must be installed in a pair of active and standby slots.
5.5 DIP Switch on the Subrack

The DIP switch on the subrack is used to set the number of the subrack.
Location of the DIP Switch

The DIP switch is located on the lower back of the subrack. For details on the location of the DIP switch, see 5.2 Components of the Subrack.
Appearance
Figure 5-5 shows the cover plate for the DIP switch on the subrack. Figure 5-5 Cover plate for the DIP switch on the subrack
Description about the DIP Switch

The DIP switch on the subrack has eight bits numbered in ascending order from 1 to 8. The higher the bit is, the more significant it is. Table 5-6 describes the bits.
5 Subracks
Table 5-6 Description about the bits Bit 1-5 Description Bits 1 to 5 are used for setting the subrack number. Bit 1 is the least significant bit. If the bit is set to ON, it indicates 0. If the bit is set to OFF, it indicates 1. Odd parity check bit Reserved, undefined, generally set to ON Startup type of the subrack, generally set to OFF.
6 7 8 (the most significant bit)
Principle of the DIP Switch Setting

As the DIP switch uses odd parity check, the number of 1s in the eight bits must be an odd number. The method for setting the bits is as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. Set bit 1 to bit 5 as required. Set bit 7 to ON. Set bit 8 to OFF. Check the number of 1s in the seven bits of the DIP switch. Note that the setting of bit 8 remains unchanged. l If the number of 1s is even, set bit 6 to OFF. l If the number of 1s is odd, set bit 6 to ON. Assume that the subracks are numbered from 0 to 5 and that bit 8 is set to OFF. Table 5-7 describes the setting of the DIP switch in the case.

l All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. l DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 6-2, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side. The direction of the arrow in Figure 6-2 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. l You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the AEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. l If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.
Description of the DIP Switches

DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the AEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 6-4 describes S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10.

NOTE
6 Boards
l All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. l DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 6-17, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side. The direction of the arrow in Figure 6-17 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. l You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the PEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. l If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.
DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the PEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1s/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 6-52 describes the DIP switches on the PEUa board.

7.3 Optical Cable

The optical cable is optional in the BSC6900. It is used to connect the optical interface board to the Optical Distribution Frame (ODF) or other NEs. The number of optical cables to be installed depends on the site requirements.
Classification of the Optical Cable

According to the types of optical connectors at both ends of the cable, the optical cable can be classified into the following types: l l l LC/PC-LC/PC single-mode/multi-mode optical cable LC/PC-FC/PC single-mode/multi-mode optical cable LC/PC-SC/PC single-mode/multi-mode optical cable
NOTE
l In actual installation, the LC/PC optical connector at one end of the cable is connected to the optical interface board in the BSC6900, and the connector type at the other end of the cable depends on site requirements. l The LC/PC-LC/PC single-mode/multi-mode optical cable connects the optical interface board to the ODF or other NEs or connects the optical interface boards. l In practice, two optical cables form a pair. Both ends of each cable in the pair are attached with temporary labels. If one end of the cable is connected to the TX port, the other end should be connected to the RX port.
CAUTION

About This Chapter
DIP Switches on Components
This chapter describes the DIP switches on the boards and subracks of the BSC6900. 9.1 DIP Switch on the Subrack The DIP switch on the subrack is used to set the number of the subrack. 9.2 DIP Switches on the AEUa Board The AEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. 9.3 DIP Switches on the AOUa Board The AOUa board provides two DIP switches, both of which are labeled S1. The two DIP switches are used to set the mode of the two STM-1/OC-3 optical ports. 9.4 DIP Switch on the PAMU Board The PAMU provides an SW1 DIP switch. 9.5 DIP Switches on the PEUa Board The PEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. 9.6 DIP Switch on the PFCU Board The PFCU board has one DIP switch, which is named SW1 and consists of four bits. The DIP switch is used to set the address of the PFCU board. When the PFCU board is configured in a fan box of the service subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 1. When the PFCU board is configured in the independent fan subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 4. 9.7 Pins on the PFCB Board The PFCB board provides eight pairs of pins for jumpers. After being connected to jumpers, these pins are used to set the address and working mode of the PFCB board. The settings of these pins depend on the installation position of the PFCB board. 9.8 DIP Switches on the POUa Board The POUa board provides two DIP switches, both of which are labeled S1. The two DIP switches are used to set the mode of the two STM-1/OC-3 optical ports.

9.1 DIP Switch on the Subrack

The DIP switch on the subrack is used to set the number of the subrack.
Location of the DIP Switch

The DIP switch is located on the lower back of the subrack. For details on the location of the DIP switch, see 5.2 Components of the Subrack.
Appearance
Figure 9-1 shows the cover plate for the DIP switch on the subrack. Figure 9-1 Cover plate for the DIP switch on the subrack
Description about the DIP Switch

The DIP switch on the subrack has eight bits numbered in ascending order from 1 to 8. The higher the bit is, the more significant it is. Table 9-1 describes the bits.
Issue 10 (2012-06-30)
215
Table 9-1 Description about the bits Bit 1-5 Description Bits 1 to 5 are used for setting the subrack number. Bit 1 is the least significant bit. If the bit is set to ON, it indicates 0. If the bit is set to OFF, it indicates 1. Odd parity check bit Reserved, undefined, generally set to ON Startup type of the subrack, generally set to OFF.
6 7 8 (the most significant bit)
Principle of the DIP Switch Setting

As the DIP switch uses odd parity check, the number of 1s in the eight bits must be an odd number. The method for setting the bits is as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. Set bit 1 to bit 5 as required. Set bit 7 to ON. Set bit 8 to OFF. Check the number of 1s in the seven bits of the DIP switch. Note that the setting of bit 8 remains unchanged. l If the number of 1s is even, set bit 6 to OFF. l If the number of 1s is odd, set bit 6 to ON. Assume that the subracks are numbered from 0 to 5 and that bit 8 is set to OFF. Table 9-2 describes the setting of the DIP switch in the case.

9.2 DIP Switches on the AEUa Board

The AEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10.

Figure 9-2 shows the layout of the DIP switches on the AEUa board.

(2) Bottom plate
Issue 10 (2012-06-30)

NOTE
l All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. l DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 9-2, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side. The direction of the arrow in Figure 9-2 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. l You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the AEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. l If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.

DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the AEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 9-3 describes S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. Table 9-3 Description of the DIP switches on the AEUa board DIP Switch S2 Bit 1-8 Description TX ground switch of E1s/T1s/J1s 24 to 31 Setting of DIP Bit ON Meaning Setting the working mode to E1 unbalanced mode Setting the working mode to other modes Setting the working mode to E1 unbalanced mode Setting the working mode to other modes Setting the working mode to E1 unbalanced mode Setting the working mode to other modes

9.5 DIP Switches on the PEUa Board

The PEUa board provides five DIP switches, namely, S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10. Figure 9-5 shows the layout of the DIP switches on the PEUa board.

NOTE
l All DIP switches are on the front panel of the sub-board. The front panel is combined with the bottom plate, so the DIP switches are not exposed. l DIP switches S2, S4, S6, S8, and S10 are set from the side. As shown in Figure 9-5, there are two square holes between DIP switches, one between S2 and S4, and the other between S8 and S6. Through the two holes, you can set S2, S4, S8, and S6. DIP switch S10 is located in the right corner of the subboard, and thus you can set S10 along the side. The direction of the arrow in Figure 9-5 is to turn inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to ON, turn them inwards. To set the bits of S2, S4, S6, or S8 to OFF, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to ON, turn them outwards. To set the bits of S10 to OFF, turn them inwards. l You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to set S10. If there is any inconsistency between the physical setting of S10 on the PEUa board and the setting of S10 by command, take the setting by command as the criterion. By default, the working mode of S10 is set to E1. You can also run the SET E1T1 command on the LMT to change the working mode of S10 from E1 mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, or T1 mode. When you run the SET E1T1 command to set the support for balanced and unbalanced modes parameter to No and set the working mode of S10 to E1, you must also manually set the bits of S10 to set the working mode of S10 to E1 balanced mode or E1 unbalanced mode. l If signals are transmitted in E1 unbalanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 75-ohm coaxial cable and the TX end of the cable is grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to ON. If signals are transmitted in E1(T1) balanced mode, the signals are transmitted through the 120-ohm twisted pair cable and the TX end of the cable is not grounded, that is, the corresponding DIP bit is set to OFF.
DIP switches S2, S4, S6, and S8 on the PEUa board are used to enable or disable the grounding of 0 to 31 E1s/T1s/J1s at the TX end. DIP switch S10 is used to set the working mode to E1 balanced mode, E1 unbalanced mode, T1 mode, or J1 mode. Table 9-6 describes the DIP switches on the PEUa board.

9.6 DIP Switch on the PFCU Board

The PFCU board has one DIP switch, which is named SW1 and consists of four bits. The DIP switch is used to set the address of the PFCU board. When the PFCU board is configured in a fan box of the service subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 1. When the PFCU board is configured in the independent fan subrack, the address of the PFCU board is set to 4.
