Telecommunication
Telecommunication encompasses the electrical communication at a
distance of voice, data, and image information (e.g., TV and
facsimile). These media, therefore, will be major topics of this book.
The word media (medium, singular) also is used to describe what is
transporting telecommunication signals. This is termed transmission
media.
An overall telecommunications network (i.e., the PSTN) consists of
local networks interconnected by a long-distance network.

instrument, cellular/ PCS telephone or combined device, facsimile, or
conference TV equipment. End-users usually connect to nodes.
A node is a point or junction in a transmission system where lines
and trunks meet. A node usually carries out a switching function. In
the case of the local area network (LAN), a network interface unit is
used, through which one or more end-users may be connected.
Connectivity connects an end-user to a node, and from there
possibly through other nodes to some final end-user destination with
which the initiating end-user wants to communicate.

If we turn a light on, we have an electrical closure allowing electrical
current to pass. The same thing happens with our telephone set; it
now passes current. The current source is a “battery” that resides at
the local serving switch. It is connected by the subscriber loop. This is
just a pair of copper wires connecting the battery and switch out to
the subscriber premises and then to the subscriber instrument.
The action of current flow alerts the serving exchange that the
subscriber requests service. When the current starts to flow, the
exchange returns a dial tone, which is audible in the headset (of the
subscriber instrument). The calling subscriber (user) now knows that
she/ he may start dialing digits or pushing buttons on the subscriber
instrument. Each button is associated with a digit. There are 10
digits, 0 through 9.
If the called subscriber and the calling subscriber are in the same
local area, only seven digits need be dialed. These seven digits
represent the telephone number of the called subscriber (user). This
type of signaling, the dialing of the digits, is called address signaling.
The digits actuate control circuits in the local switch, allowing a
connectivity to be set up.
If the calling and called subscribers reside in the serving area of that
local switch, no further action need be taken. A connection is made
to the called subscriber line and the switch sends a special ringing
signal down that loop to the called subscriber, and her/ his
telephone rings, telling her/ him that someone wishes to talk to her/
him on the telephone. This audible ringing is called alerting, another
form of signaling.

Once the called subscriber goes off-hook (i.e., takes the telephone
out of its cradle), there is activated connectivity, and the call enters
the information-passing phase, or phase 2 of the telephone call.
When the call is completed, the telephones at each end are returned
to their cradles, breaking the circuit of each subscriber loop. This is
analogous to turning off a light; the current stops flowing.
Phase 3 of the telephone call begins. It terminates the call, and the
connecting circuit in the switch is taken down and freed-up for
another user. Both subscriber loops are now idle.

• Underground cables
• Exchange Main Distribution Frame
From the subscriber’s house wiring, the line is brought on overhead
wires to a point called distribution point (DP). From the DP, the pairs
are extended to the exchange through underground distribution
cables, secondary cables and primary cables. At the exchange are
brought through underground cables to cable chamber. In the cable
chambers, they are jointed to PVC cables for terminating at MDF.
This frame incorporates protecting devices and provides for a flexible
arrangement for connecting subscriber’s lines to exchange
equipments.
The underground cables laid at a depth to 2.5 feet below the ground
level connect the DP post to the exchange MDF. The cabinets and
pillars included in the cable network provide flexible arrangement of
interconnection between various sizes of cables.
Functions of MDF:
1) All cable copper wires supplying services through user telephone
lines are terminated and distributed through MDF.
2) The most common kind of large MDF is long steel rack accessible
from both sides. Each jumper is a twisted wire.
3) It consists of local connection and broadband connection frames
for the main exchange area.

Telecommunication systems require electrical energy for
transmission of signals energization of subscriber’s telephone
transmitters and for many miscellaneous functions. A telephone
exchange requires a considerable large amount of energy, as the
common exchange power plants required to feed currents for the
subscriber’s transmitters, for signaling and for control and operation
of exchanges switches. It is therefore, necessary that a power source
should not be only economical but adequate to meet the needs of a
particular type of the installation.
BATTERY
These days, most of the Battery used in mobile network is VRLA
(Valve Regulated Lead Acid Battery) type. Various capacities of
batteries are 120 AH, 400 AH, 600 AH, 1000AH, 1500 AH, 2000 AH,
2500 AH, 3000 AH, 4000 AH & 5000 AH.

INVERTER
In most of the telecom installations, inverters are installed to provide
uninterrupted AC supply to OMC terminals. Capacity of invertors
used varies from 1KVA to 10KVA depending on the connected AC
load. The basic precautions for installation is that inverter should be
installed as close to battery room as possible so as to reduce DC
voltage loss due to cabling. The inverters may not be loaded beyond
80%of its rated capacity and initial start up load also needs to be
taken into account. Only essential equipment may be connected to
inverter output.
EARTHING
Earthing plays a vital role in the protection of equipments and the
personnel. Apart from protection from hazardous stray currents in
electrical equipment in Telecommunication circuits and equipments,
Earthing is provided for the following purposes:
Reduction of Crosstalk and Noise.
Protection of costly apparatus and persons against foreign
voltages and leakage currents from power wirings touching the
metallic frame of the equipment.
Protection of buildings and equipments from lightning strikes.
Earthing of power supply systems is used to ensure reliability of
power as it helps to provide stability of voltage conditions
preventing excess fluctuations and providing a measure of
protection against lightning.
