Meanings of Indicators
Indicator Meaning Status description
Fault When the indicator lights, it indicates that the board is
ALM
indicator reset or faulty
Flashing period for loading program: 0.25 second
Flashing period for normal running of the active board:
Running
RUN 2 seconds
indicator
Flashing period for normal running of the standby
board: 4 seconds
When the board is plugged into a frame, if the blue
indicator lights, it means that the board has contacted
the backplane and the ejector lever on the front panel
Plug-in can be pressed down to make the board fully inserted
OFFLINE
indicator into the backplane.
While pulling the board out, pull the ejector lever on
the front panel. When the blue indicator lights, it is
allowed to pull the board out.

Board Function Summary
Board Functions
SMUI Is the main control board of a frame. Provides program loading and control for all devices in the
system, data configuration and working status control functions.
SIUI SIUI board is the back board of SMUI. It provides the Ethernet interface for the back wiring of SMUI.
IFMI The IFMI is used to receive and transmit IP packets, process Media Access Control (MAC) layer
messages, distribute IP messages and provide IP interfaces together with the BFII.
BFII BFII is the back interface board of the IFMI. It is used to implement FE driver processing and enable
the external physical interface of the IFMI.
HSCI provides bridge connection of left shared resource bus with right one, board hot swap control and
intra-frame Ethernet bus exchange.
FCCU The Fixed Calling Control Unit (FCCU) implements call control, processes protocols, generates and
stores bills in its bill pool.
CDBI As the database of the equipment, the CDBI stores all data of the following aspects:
call location, gateway resources management, outgoing trunk circuit selection.
BSGI BSGI is used to process the IP packets after the IFMI level-1 dispatch. It implements the following
protocols: UDP, SCTP, M2UA, M3UAV5UA, IUA, MGCP, H.248.
MSGI The Multimedia Signaling Gateway Unit (MSGI) processes the following protocols: UDP, TCP, H.323
(including H.323 RAS and H.323 Call Signaling), SIP.
MRCA The MRCA processes the audio signals in real time. It collects and generates DTMF signals, plays
and records audio clips and provides multi-party conference function.
MRIA The Media Resource Interface Unit (MRIA) is the back board of the MRCA, providing 10/100-Mbps
interface for the external media streams.
ALUI ALUI is the monitoring board, inserted in slot 16 of the service frame. It indicates the system status
and reports the alarm information obtained by other means.
UPWR The power boards, including front and back boards, providing power supply to all the boards in the
frame. Each power board occupies two slots. The power boards work in 2 + 2 backup mode.
Summary
 The course introduces the system structure, cabinet &
frame configuration, board function and basic signaling
processing procedure .The key points are hardware
configuration and board functions.
