Chapter 1 Product Overview

1.1 Introduction to the SE2200

The SE2200 is developed to serve as a Session Border Controller (SB C) at the edge
of current IP net works. It enables IP networks to bear NGN services, such as video
conference. The SE2200 is generally deployed at the egress of CPNs or enterprise
networks or on the convergence layer of Metropolitan Area Networks (MANs). It
solves such problems as NAT, NAT traversal, QoS and security defense for private
network subscribers. The SE2200 can also act as a border gateway between MANs
or Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to implement interworking between different
address domains and solve such problems as security, QoS and network hiding.

The SE2200 adopts special high-performance processors. Its high reliability and
modular hardware design eases scalability. The software of the SE2200 inherits the
Versatile Routing Platform (VRP ) of Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., and is divided
into a managing system, a supporting system, a forwarding system and a processing
system. The SE2200 has the reliable and stable feat ures of Distribute Object-oriented
Programmable Real-time Architecture (DOP RA). This separates the upper services
from the lower layer operating systems and offers fine compatibility.

In addition to the protocol proxy, for example, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP ), Media
Gateway Control Protocol (MGCP), H.323 and H.248, the SE2200 provides the NGN
with such functions as dynamic firewall, NAT and L2& L3 QoS re-mark.

1.2 Product Structure

1.2.1 Appearance of the SE2200

The SE2200 consists of an integrat ed chassis, two power modules, a fan board and
some other service boards. These boards are horizontally placed in the chassis. The
3U-high standard chassis can be fixed in a 19” standard rack. The chassis is 436.2
mm in width, 420 mm in depth and 130.5 mm in height.

Non-Volatile Random Access Memory (NVRAM) stores the system configuration files
and running status information records.
Flash memory functions as the major file storage medium to store operating system
and application program files.
BootROM is to boot the read-only memory and stores the boot program file.
100 V to 240 V is a standard fluctuating range of AC-input power supply, but the
actual fluctuating range is 90 V to 264 V.

1.4 General Modules

General modules of the SE2200 include RP U, PWR, FAN, and interface modules.

1.4.1 RPU

I. Functions

As the core of the SE2200, the RP U functions to process protocols, to forward

low-s peed data packets, to control interfaces, and to detect faults. The state
monitoring information, such as the operating status of the Fan, PWR, and the system,
can be shown directly through the indicators on the RPU. The FA N/PWR fault alarms
or system temperature alarms are reported to the Daemon. In addition, the RP U also
provides a hardware reset button.

1.4.2 PWR

I. Functions

The power supply system of the SE2200 comprises two PWRs. In normal situations,
the two PWRs (either supplying DC or AC power) function in a redundant way. The
input int erruption or failure of a PWR will not affect the operation of another PWR, and
this operating PWR will provide all the power required by the system.

The SE2200 provides two types of PWRs, AC PWR and DC PWR. The A C PWR uses
PSR350-A. The output power of each A C PWR is 350 W and the two-way outputs are
combined on the backplane. The DC PWR uses PSR350-D. The out put power of
each DC PWR is also 350 W and the two-way outputs are also combined on the
backplane. Power cables use D-type 3P IN -48 V feeder cables. In addition, the two
PWRs provide the overcurrent protection and overvoltage protection.

 Note:
If you want to install an SE2200 in a communication equipment room, you should
make sure that the power distribution cabinet can provide the lightning protection box
or arrester against the current of 20 kA and above.

voltage (90 V t o 264 V) input is normal, while OFF means the voltage

1.4.3 FAN

I. Functions

The SE2200 is configured wit h six fans that are separated into three groups , as
shown in Figure 1-4. When all these fans are working normally, the operating
o o
temperature of the system can be maintained in the range of 0 C to 45 C. When a fan
fails, the other fans can still ensure the system operating in the normal t emperature.
The rotating speed of the fans is controlled by the RPU and is in the range of 50% to
100%. The FA N controller uses two parameters, low-temperature threshold and
high-temperature threshold to control the rotatin g speed of the fans. The former
corresponds to the 100% rotating speed and the latter corresponds to the 50%
rotating speed. The system will send out the rotation stop alarm signal in case that
any fan fails. The alarm and state indicators of FAN are located on the RPU front
panel.
