 INTRODUCTION

2 Introduction
This section presents a general introduction to the LECO1 unit.
The section is closed with a unit view in section Installation (page 17).

2.1 General

This document describes the architecture and functions of the LECO1 unit
and shows, how this unit is commissioned and operated as part of the FOX.
The LECO1 unit is a 1-slot wide service unit of FOX. It supports eight full
duplex E0 (64 kbit/s) data interfaces according to ITU-T G.703.
The synchronous transmission mode provides the codirectional timing oper-
ation.
The LECO1 unit supports the connection of two DTEs via a synchronous
TDM network. At both ends the DTE is connected to a LECO1 unit which
converts the E0 data signal to a 64 kbit/s digital signal (and vice versa). The
digital signal is transported through the TDM network to a FOX network ele-
ment where the LECO1 unit converts the digital signal back to the E0 data
signal (and vice versa).

Figure 1: DTE connection to a LECO1 unit

The LECO1 unit as a FOX TDM unit provides PBUS (FOX TDM bus)
access. LECO1 has a physical access capacity of 4 x 2 Mbit/s towards the
FOX internal cross connection backplane, PBUS, allowing access of the
eight data user ports with 8 x 64 kbit/s.
The following network features help to enhance the systems availability:
• 1+1 linear trail protection switching.
• 1+1 linear subnetwork connection protection switching.
LECO1 is connected to a TDM transport unit as e.g. a SAMO1 unit via the
PBUS in the backplane of FOX.

 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

5 Functional description
This chapter gives the detailed functional description of the LECO1 unit in
the FOX subrack:
• Data interface functions of the LECO1 unit (section Data interface func-
tions (page 21).
• All data signal related functions and transport features (section Data han-
dling (page 23)).
• Traffic protection functions (section Protection (page 24)).

5.1 Data interface functions

5.1.1 Synchronous transmission

The LECO1 unit supports the codirectional E0 interface according to ITU-T
G.703. The term “codirectional” describes an interface where the information
and its associated timing are transported in the same direction.
In both directions of transmission the interface carries three signals across
the interface on one balanced wire pair:
• 64 kbit/s data signal (transmit or receive data),
• 64 kHz timing signal (bit timing),
• 8 kHz timing signal (octet timing).

bit Transmit data, bit timing, octet timing

DTE timing LECO1
E0 port E0 port
Receive data, bit timing, octet timing

Figure 7: Codirectional timing

Typically in the DTE the bit timing is looped from the receive direction to the
transmit direction.
On the LECO1 unit in transmit direction, the bit and octet timing are recov-
ered from the transmit data signal. The data are written to a 6 octet buffer
with the recovered timing and finally mapped, octet by octet, to a 64 kbit/s
time slot with the NE timing (PETS). In case the transmit signal is not syn-
chronous to the NE timing the data rate is adapted with the repetition or elim-
ination of a complete octet.
The transmit signal is monitored for a loss of signal condition or a loss of
8 kHz timing condition. Any of these conditions activates an alarm and acti-
vates the AIS insertion in transmit direction.
The 8 kHz timing monitoring and consequent AIS insertion can be enabled.

FOX61xLECO1 21
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

Please note:
When the 8 kHz timing monitoring is disabled, but the 8 kHz timing signal is
still present, it will be used for the octet aligned mapping of user data to time
slots.

Please note:
The transmit data signal cannot be used to synchronize the network ele-
ment.
In receive direction, the user data rate is derived from the NE timing. The
data and timing signals are fed to the interface.
In case of an alarm condition an alarm is reported and an AIS is inserted in
receive direction.
In case of a loss of signal in transmit direction the octet timing in receive
direction can be removed.

5.1.2 Coding and octet timing

The E0 interface uses a 1B4T code with three voltage levels. Each data bit is
coded with a 4 bit block on the line:
• A binary one is coded as 1100 block.
• A binary zero is coded as 1010 block.
• The polarity of consecutive blocks is alternated.
• The polarity alternation is violated every eighth block. The violation block
marks the last bit in an octet.

Bit number 7 8 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 2

64 kbit/s data 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 1 0

Coded binary data

Coded ternary data

Octet timing

Figure 8: Octet timing with violation of the polarity alternation

According to ITU-T G.703 the 8 kHz timing must be generated by the con-
trolling equipment, i.e. the LECO1 unit, but it is not mandatory for the DTE
on the other side of the interface to either utilize or generate the 8 kHz timing
signal. Therefore the 8 kHz timing monitoring and consequent AIS insertion
can be enabled.

Figure 9: Data transport

The data handling can be configured with the following control and mainte-
nance mechanisms:
• Decoder:
The decoder extracts the user data, bit and octet timing from the transmit
signal.
• Signal monitor:
The transmit signal is monitored for a loss of signal condition or a loss of
8 kHz timing condition.
The 8 kHz timing monitoring can be enabled.
• Consequent action (transmit signal):
A loss of signal condition or a loss of 8 kHz timing condition (if enabled)
activates the following consequent actions.
− Data AIS insertion in transmit direction.
− 8 kHz timing removal in receive direction (configurable, loss of signal
condition only).
• Buffer:
The buffer with a depth of six octets adapts the transmit data timing to the
NE timing.
Positive and negative octet slips are counted.
• Loop 2b:
The maintenance function “Back-To-Back-2b” loop loops the receive data
signal back to the transmit direction. With an active loop 2b the receive
data signal is replaced by AIS, the 8 kHz timing can be disabled.

FOX61xLECO1 23
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

• Protection switch:
In receive direction a working and a protecting channel can be config-
ured. Switching criteria are “trail signal fail” and “trail signal degrade” from
the P12 transport unit. With CAS enabled in the CTP configuration, CAS
AIS is an additional switching criterion.
• Consequent action (receive signal):
A detected failure in the receive signal activates the following consequent
actions.
− Data AIS insertion in receive direction.
− 8 kHz timing removal in receive direction.
• Remove octet timing:
The 8 kHz timing in receive direction can be disabled to inform the DTE
of a non operational 64 kbit/s data transport. The 8 kHz timing is removed
as a consequent action on the following failures or maintenance activities:
− Failure in the receive signal.
− Loss of transmit data signal (configurable).
− Loop 2b active (configurable).

5.3 Protection

5.3.1 Subnetwork connection and linear trail protection

LECO1 supports 1+1 linear trail protection (LTP) and 1+1 inherently moni-
tored subnetwork connection protection (SNCP/I).
The difference between the two protection scenarios lies in the availability
and usage of CAS.
• If CAS is available and used on the P12 transport path, the CAS AIS fail-
ure can be detected, which is then the 1+1 linear trail protection. Linear
trail protection protects against server failures and disconnected matrix
connections (via CAS AIS detection).

Please note:
LTP requires that CAS is available in the P12 transport signal (P12 termina-
tion mode = PCM30 or PCM30C) and that CAS is enabled in the user port
configuration (CAS AIS Supervision = true).
• If CAS is not available only the server layer defects can be detected,
which is then the 1+1 SNCP/I protection. SNCP/I protects against server
failures.
1+1 protection provides the 1+1 unidirectional protection. The operation type
can be configured to revertive or non-revertive.
The switching of the working and the protecting channel is done in sink
direction only. On the source side a fixed bridge is used.

5.3.2 Protection configuration

P0-nc protection switching takes place in the LECO1 cross connect function.
Protection switching action can be driven by two different request types:
• Traffic signal requests:
− Signal fail (SF)
The SF state is activated if the analysis of the incoming server signal
on the transport unit reports a signal failure, e.g. loss of signal.
− CAS-AIS
The CAS signalling pattern abcd of the received signal exhibits an
AIS, i.e. abcd = 1111.
− Signal degraded (SD)
The SD state is activated if the analysis of the incoming server signal
on the transport unit reports a degraded signal, e.g. BER 10-6.
• External command requests:
− Forced switch to working
− Forced switch to protecting
− Manual switch to working
− Manual switch to protecting
Note that a forced switch is executed even when there is a failure on the tar-
get signal. A manual switch is executed only if the target signal exhibits no
degradation or a less severe degradation than the active signal.
The external command requests are maintenance functions, i.e. they are not
stored in the units database.

FOX61xLECO1 25
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

It is possible to check the status of the protection switch (working, protecting

circuit) via the CTP status function.
