Figure 1-2 Cabinet architecture
The front door and rear door of the N68-22 cabinet each consists of two flip-open door
panels. The flip-open design saves installation space and facilitates operation on the
cabinet. The side panels are installed in hang-in mode.
The mount angles on the side panels are used to fasten internal cabinet components.
There are grounding bars on the side posts at the back of the cabinet, which is used for
grounding internal components and interconnecting grounding cables between
cabinets.
The wire-bushings on the side posts, the cable strips and cabling rack on the back of
the cabinet are used for the layout and bundling of internal cables of the cabinet.
1-3
The N68-22 cabinet can be installed on cement floor or ESD-preventive floor. When
installing the N68-22 cabinet on the ESD-preventive floor, you have to use N800 series
supports.
1.2.3 N800 Support and Accessories
I. Introduction to Support
If N68-22 cabinets are installed in the equipment room with ESD-preventive floor, N800
series supports are used.
Supports, made of welded steel plates, are used to block the cabinets up, thus
facilitating floor paving and cabling. Before the whole set of equipment is grounded,
insulation plates must be installed under the supports, and insulating coverings must be
added to the expansion bolts to satisfy the insulation requirements.
N800 series supports have four kinds of components, of which three kinds are height
adjustable and one kind is with fixed height.
Figure 1-3 shows the outer appearance of an N800 support. Table 1-1 shows the height
adjustment range of each kind of component.

I 210 – 255
II 256 – 345
III 346 – 525
IV Customized for the floor height (minimum height: 100 mm)

Note: The height of floor refers to the distance between the upper surface of ESD-preventive
floor and the cement floor.
The height of N800 series I, II and III components can be adjusted within their
adjustable ranges, which is realized by means of the relative move between upper
beam and lower beam.
N800 IV component is the support of fixed height, which is applicable to ultra-high and
ultra-low floors. The lowest applicable floor height of this component is 100 mm.
II. Introduction to floor holder-slide rail assemblies
Floor holder-slide rail assemblies include three parts:

z Floor holder
z Holder fixing component
z Slide rail.
Floor holders are used to support the floor around a cabinet, and can be divided into
front and back floor holders, and side floor holders.
Holder fixing components are installed under slide rails, and they are used to connect
slide rails and front and back floor holders.
Slide rails are used to connect the cabinet and supports, and to move the equipment
and adjust the equipment positions. They can join two supports and a cabinet together
to keep the cabinet in a horizontal line and the connection stable. Due to their elasticity,
the slide rails can absorb the vibrations. Figure 1-4 shows the appearance of a slide
rail.

III. Amount of Supports, Floor Holders, and Slide Rails
To connect cabinets, 2N mode is used to determine the number of supports to be used.

That is, each N68-22 cabinet uses two supports and N cabinets in a row need 2N
supports.
Each cabinet has one set of floor holder-slide rail assemblies, and the sets are
delivered together with the supports. Each set of floor holder-slide rail assemblies
include two slide rails, two side holders, one front floor holder and one back floor holder.
Each cabinet needs two holder fixing components, one front floor holder, and one back
floor holder, and each cabinet row needs two side floor holders, even if there is only one
cabinet in a row.

1.3 Classification of Cabinets

1.3.1 Overview of Cabinet Classification
SoftX3000 cabinets fall into the following types according to cabinet components and
actual configurations:
z Integrated configuration cabinet
z Service processing cabinet
z MRS cabinet
The MRS cabinet is required when you configure a separate MRS in SoftX3000.
1.3.2 Integrated Configuration Cabinet
I. Overview of Integrated Configuration Cabinet
The integrated configuration cabinet is mandatory. It includes iGWB, BAM, hard disk
array, LAN Switch, KVMS, and service frames. There are three types of services
frames: basic frame, expansion frame, and media resource frame.
The integrated configuration cabinet provides the following features:
z Providing complete service processing ability.
z Providing IP, clock, and TDM external interfaces
z Managing communication between the host and the BAM.
z Storing bills.
z Providing MRS feature when configuring a media resource frame.
The configuration of integrated configuration cabinet in different countries and regions
are different.
II. Integrated Configuration Cabinet in China
When SoftX3000 is used in China, the BAM and the iGWB use HP servers. The BAM is
not configured with hard disk array, and the iGWB is configured with built-in hard disk
array. Figure 1-5 shows the configuration of an integrated configuration cabinet.

V. Configuration Guidance
In an integrated configuration cabinet, iGWB, hard disk array (necessary only when the
iGWB uses the IBM server), BAM, LAN Switch 0, LAN Switch 1, KVMS (or KVM, KVM
switcher), air deflector, basic frame, and power distribution frame must be configured.
Other components are optional.The LAN Switch 2 and LAN Switch 3 are optional
components, and provide IP interfaces for SoftX3000 in coordination with the IFMI in
the basic frame.
If you choose a separate MRS, you must configure an expansion frame at the near top
of the integrated configuration cabinet. Otherwise, configure a media resource frame or
MRS6100 there.
VI. Configuration Notes
If neither an expansion frame nor a media resource frame is configured at the near top
of the integrated configuration cabinet, cover it with a standard blank filler panel.
The media resource frame accommodates MRCA and MRIA only.
1.3.3 Service Processing Cabinet
I. Overview of Service Processing Cabinet
Except for host-BAM communication and bill storage features, the service processing
cabinet provides the same features as the integrated configuration cabinet. The system
capacity determines the number of service processing cabinets (four at maximum).
Figure 1-8 shows the frame position details. All frames are configured in a
bottom-to-top sequence.

Note:
When there are more than 100,000 equivalent subscribers, it is recommended to use a
separate MRS. In this case, configure three service processing cabinets, and replace
the media resource frames with expansion frames.
II. Configuration Guidance
When there is no separate MRS configured in the SoftX3000, you need to configure a
media resource frame in a service processing cabinet (with MRCAs and MRIAs).
When a separate MRS is configured in the SoftX3000, there is no need to configure a
media resource frame in a service processing cabinet. Three service processing
cabinets meet the demand for full configuration.
When there is more than one service processing cabinet, you have to configure a basic
frame 1 on the top of the second service processing cabinet.
III. Configuration Notes
All vacant frame positions must be covered with blank filler panels.

1.5 Power Distribution Frame

1.5.1 Functions of Power Distribution Frame
The power distribution frame (PDF) is installed at the top of an N68-22 cabinet.
Two channels of -48 V power supply are diverted into a PDF where lightning protection
and overcurrent protection operations are performed and finally six groups of -48 V
power supplies are distributed to the functional frames in the cabinet.
In addition, the PDF keeps monitoring the voltage of lead-in power and the state of

U-SYS SoftX3000 SoftSwitch System Chapter 2 OSTA Frame
Chapter 2 OSTA Frame
2.1 Introduction to the Chapter
This chapter details the features, classification, and composition of the open standard
telecom architecture (OSTA) frame used in SoftX3000 cabinets. The chapter also
elaborates on the fan box, which is an internal component of the OSTA frame.
2.2 Overview of OSTA Frame
The frame is an independent working unit, which is composed of boards plugged in the
same backplane. SoftX3000 adopts the OSTA hardware platform. The OSTA platform
has four types of backplane buses:
z Shared resource bus
z Ethernet bus
z H.110 bus
z Serial bus
The OSTA frame features high adaptability and reliability. This is applicable to the
exchange and transfer of length-variable data packets of the softswitch.
2.3 Features of OSTA Frame
The OSTA platform is structured in a standard frame which is 19 inches wide and 9U
high. Each OSTA frame is equipped with a pluggable fan box at its lower part, as shown
in Figure 2-1
2-1
(1) Fan box (2) Front view of OSTA frame (3) Rear view of OSTA frame
Figure 2-1 Appearance of OSTA frame
Service frame has the following features.

z A frame is 19 inches wide and 9U high, conforming to IEC297.
z A fan box is installed at the bottom of each service frame.
z A frame accommodates both front boards and back boards
z All the front boards and back boards are plugged in the backplane.
z All cables are led out from the back of the frame.
z Each frame has 21 slots.
z A frame has temperature detection and fan speed adjustment functions.
2.4 Board Allocation of OSTA Frame
All OSTA frames share the same hardware architecture. Each frame is designed with
21 standard slots. The following boards are always configured in fixed positions:
z System Management Units (SMUIs)
z System Interface Units (SIUIs)
z Hot-Swap and Control Units (HSCIs)
z Alarm Units (ALMIs)
z Universal Power Modules (UPWRs) (occupying the width of 2 standard board
slots)
These boards occupy 9 slots in total. The remaining 12 slots are used for service
boards (front boards) and interface boards (back boards).
Figure 2-2 shows the board allocation specifics.

Figure 2-2 Board allocation in an OSTA frame
The board design in the OSTA frame separates the functions of front boards and back
boards. It simplifies the design of boards and unifies the functions to be provided by
each board, reducing hardware complexity, improving system reliability, frame
adaptability, and configuration flexibility.
2.5 Fan Box
2.5.1 Overview of Fan Box
A fan box is installed at the bottom of each service frame.
It is designed for heat dissipation. The fan box is made of plastic parts. Each fan box
accommodates six fans. The diameter of each fan is 119 mm, and the thickness is 32
mm.
2.5.2 Functions of Fan Box
A speed adjustment technique is used in the fans. On the premise of normal heat
dissipation and reliable running, the rotation speed of the fans can be controlled.
The fans are hot-swappable.
The running state of the fans can be known by observing the indicators.
The fan box can be maintained through a remote network management terminal.
2.5.3 Front View of Fan Box
The front view of a fan box is shown in Figure 2-3.
2-3
(1) Captive screw (2) Fan state indicator

Figure 2-3 Front view of a fan box
If the state indicator turns green and blinks at a frequency of 1 Hz, it means that all the
fans work well. Otherwise, the fans might work abnormally, the communication monitor
board might be faulty, or the power supply for the fan box might fail.
2.5.4 Technical Specifications of Fan Box
Input voltage: –58 V – 40 V
Maximum power consumption of a fan box: 105 W
Communication rate through RS485: 9.6 kbit/s
2.6 Classification of Frames
2.6.1 Overview of Frame Classification
The DIP switch on the SIUI determines the frame number. The SMUI reads the DIP
switch on the SIUI and retrieves frame number. For the relationship between the
DIP-switch settings of the SIUI and the frame number, refer to chapter 3 “Boards” for
details.
Depending on different board types configured, SoftX3000 frames fall into four types:
z Basic frame 0
z Basic frame 1
z Expansion frame
z Media resource frame.
2-4
2.6.2 Basic Frame 0
I. Functions of Basic Frame 0
Basic frame 0 must be configured in the integrated configuration cabinet. The basic
frame 0 provides a number of external interfaces such as clock, E1, and IP. A basic
frame 0 can provide all service processing capabilities.
In the basic frame 0, CKIIs, IFMIs/BFIIs and CDBIs can be configured.

z MSGIs
An FCSU and an EPII must be configured in pairs and inserted in the same slots at the
front and back.
The back slots 12 – 16 are always reserved for the CKIIs.
The FCCU/FCSU/BSGI/MSGI compatible slots are front slots 2 – 5 and 12 – 15. It is

recommended to configure FCCUs/FCSUs from left to right and BSGIs/MSGIs from
right to left.
For empty slots without boards configured, it is required to cover them with blank filler
panels.
2.6.3 Basic Frame 1
I. Functions of Basic Frame 1
When the number of equivalent subscribers is greater than 500,000, basic frame 1
must be configured. A basic frame 1 provides IP and Ethernet interfaces externally, and
can provide all service processing capabilities. For every increase of 500,000
equivalent subscribers, add a pair of IFMIs in basic frame 1 to provide external IP and
2-6
Ethernet interfaces. When the number of equivalent subscribers is greater than

1,000,000, add a pair of CDBIs in the basic frame 1.
Note:
z Because a maximum of 4 pairs of IFMIs and 2 pairs of CDBIs are configured in
SoftX3000, at most one basic frame 0 and one basic 1 are required for the whole
system.
z In the basic frame 1, CKIIs cannot be configured but IP Forward Modules
(IFMIs)/Back insert FE Interface Units (BFIIs) and Central Database Boards (CDBIs)
can be configured. The IFMIs/BFIIs provide IP interfaces. In the basic frame 0,
CKIIs, IFMIs/BFIIs and CDBIs can be configured.

3.1 Classification of Boards

There are three types of boards in SoftX3000:
Front board
Back board
Backplane
Both the front boards and the back boards are inserted in the backplane.
Table 3-1 lists the functions of the front boards, the back boards, and the backplane.
Table 3-1 Functions of boards used in SoftX3000
Board Function
Front board Service processing boards and management control board
Back board Protocol processing boards and interface boards
Backplane Provides a communication channel for other boards
All SoftX3000 boards are hot-swappable. Some boards have a hot-swapping LED
“OFFLINE” on the front panel and a hot-swapping switch on the ejector-lever.
When you insert a board in the frame and restore the ejector lever, the
hot-swapping switch is closed.
When you push open the ejector lever, the switch is open.
Then the MBUS module of the board sends a board-swapping request to the
active SMUI in the frame and terminates all services in the board.
When the hot-swapping LED is on, you can unplug the board.

U-SYS SoftX3000 SoftSwitch System Chapter 4 Cables
Chapter 4 Cables
4.1 Power Cable and Protection Grounding Cable

Power cables are used to supply power to a cabinet and its components. The protection
grounding cables of various components in a cabinet are interconnected through the
grounding bars in the cabinet. Through the protection grounding cables of the cabinet,
the grounding bars are connected to the protection ground (PGND) of the DC power
distribution cabinet, which is connected with the protection grounding bus in the
equipment room. In addition, all cabinets are interconnected by protection grounding
cables as an equipotential system.
The power cables and protection grounding cables of a cabinet and its components
include the following:
z Input power cable and protection grounding cable for cabinet
z Protection grounding cable for power distribution frame (connected before
delivery)
z Power cable and protection grounding cable for service frame
z Power cable and protection grounding cable for KVMS switcher
z Power cable and protection grounding cable for local area network (LAN) Switch
z Power cable and protection grounding cable for hard disk array (only when iGWB
uses IBM server)
z Power cable and protection grounding cable for iGateway Bill (iGWB)/background
administrator module (BAM) server
z Power cable and protection grounding cable for media resource server (MRS)
z Protection grounding cable for interconnection of grounding bars between
adjacent cabinets
z Protection grounding cable for cabinet body
Among these cables, the input power cables for cabinets connect SoftX3000 cabinets
and the direct current (DC) power distribution cabinet in the equipment room, while the
other power cables connect the output terminals of the power distribution cabinet and
the input terminals of the corresponding components and frames.
4.1.1 Input Power Cable and Protection Grounding Cable for Cabinet
The input power cables of each SoftX3000 cabinet include two –48 V cables (blue) and
two backhaul ground (BGND) cables (black), equipped with one PGND cable (yellow).
Refer to Table 4-1 for the cross-sectional area of these cables.

PGND cable (yellow or olivine) 25 mm –copper core wire
For a power cable, the end connected to the input terminal of the power distribution
frame is a cold end terminal (as shown in Figure 4-1), and the other end is usually an
OT terminal. The two ends of a PGND cable use OT terminals, as shown in Figure 4-2.
OT terminals should be connected after completion of cabling on site. Refer to
Appendix D of U-SYS SoftX3000 SoftSwitch System Installation Manual–Hardware
Installation for the connection method.
Figure 4-1 Schematic diagram of a cold end terminal
Figure 4-2 Schematic diagram of an OT terminal
4-2
Note:
If the cross-sectional area of the existing cables does not meet the design requirement,
you can connect two or more cables in parallel for use. For example, if 240-mm2 power
cables are required but only 120-mm2 power cables are available, you can connect two
120-mm2 power cables to be used as one cable.
4.1.2 Power Cable and Protection Grounding Cables for Service Frame
Each service frame has one input power cable when single power supply is adopted,
and has two input power cables when dual power supplies are adopted. The power
cables that are connected to the service frames in different locations have different
lengths. Figure 4-3 shows the appearance of a power cable of a service frame.
Figure 4-3 Appearance of a power cable for a service frame
The model of such power cable is UL1015, and its cross-sectional area is 10 American
Wire Gauge (AWG, about 5.3 mm2). The end connecting to a power distribution frame
has two cold end terminals (X2, X4), and the other end connecting to a service frame
