1 Introduction
Introduction
1.1 Positioning
The OptiX OSN 1800 series are designed for metropolitan edge applications, including
metropolitan convergence layer and access layer. They can be placed in the uplink direction of
a broadband or mobile bearer equipment. After being processed in the metropolitan access
layer network, the broadband, SDH, or Ethernet services are sent to the convergence node in
the metropolitan transport network. In this way, the services are extended to the access layer,
together with the use of existing OptiX WDM equipment. In a network with low capacity, the
OptiX OSN 1800 series can be used at the metropolitan core layer.
The OptiX OSN 1800 series use the dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) and
the coarse wavelength division multiplexing (CWDM). Wavelength grooming can be
performed at the node that consists of the OptiX OSN 1800 series. The wavelength grooming
features easy capacity expansion, flexible service access, high bandwidth utilization, and high
reliability.
1.2 Benefits
Access of Abundant Services: The OptiX OSN 1800 supports all types of services with the
rate of 1.5 Mbit/s to 10 Gbit/s.
OTN Encapsulation: All services are encapsulated as the OTN frames for unified
transmission.
EDFA: The OptiX OSN 1800 DWDM system uses advanced Erbium-doped fiber amplifier
(EDFA) technology for long haul transmission with no regenerator.
CWDM and DWDM Hybrid Network: In the initial network construction, the CWDM
system is used to make the services be available quickly. With the increasing demand of
broadband services and service traffic, the system can be smoothly upgraded to the DWDM
system.
Any ADM: The OptiX OSN 1800 series support the cross-connect function of services with
rate lower than 1.25 Gbit/s.
Layer 2 Switching: The OptiX OSN 1800 series support VLAN- and stack VLAN-based
Layer 2 switching and Layer 2 convergence of GE services to 10GE services.
ODUflex: By using this technology, users can flexibly configure ODUk based on the service
capacity, therefore fully using the line bandwidth.

1 Introduction
Single-Fiber Bi-Directional Transmission: The OptiX OSN 1800 series provide the
single-fiber bidirectional transmission solution. That is, one fiber is shared for the receiving
and transmitting of multi-wavelength optical signals. In this way, fiber resources are
effectively utilized.
Easy Installation: The equipment is an 1U height or 2U height box. It is light and compact.
Therefore, a single person can solely install the equipment.
Simplified Commissioning: There are indicators on boards, indicating their running status
and optical power receiving status. This facilitates the on-site installation and commissioning.
Temperature-hardened feature: In some special configuration scenarios, some boards can
function properly at extremely low or high temperature.

2.1 Structure
The equipment is compact and easy for installation and maintenance. With air filter-free
design, the equipment eliminates the need for on-site maintenance.
There are two types of chassis: 1800 I and 1800 II. They are equipped with the hot standby
power supplies, which can be either DC (-48 to -60 V) or AC (100 V to 240 V). The chassis
can be installed in an ETSI cabinet (300 mm depth), a 19-inch cabinet (open rack) or an
outdoor cabinet. Desk-top or wall-mounted installation is also possible.

BBU Hotel
For a distributed base station, the base band unit (BBU) and remote radio unit (RRU) are
separate. In the scenario of BBU hotel, BBUs for such distributed base stations are placed
together. The RRUs are connected to the BBUs through CPRI interfaces over fibers.
The advantages of such a scenario are as follows:
Low costs and easy operation and maintenance (O&M): A smaller number of optical
fibers and colored optical modules are used and BBUs are managed and maintained in
centralized mode.
Good performance: BBUs are placed together. In this case, the hold-off time for service
switchover among base stations is shortened.
High reliability: Protection can be implemented at the OTN layer so that services are
protected against link faults.

Multiple GE services can be multiplexed into one wavelength by using the OTN
technology, and multiple wavelengths can be converged into one fiber by using the
WDM technology. This improves the fiber utilization to a great extent and thus saves
fiber resources.
The 4xAny service board (LQM) and 8xAny service board (LQM2) support the function
to converge 2xGE services plus 2xSTM-1 services to one 2.5 Gbit/s wavelength. In this
manner, one single board can carry both the upstream services on the legacy
ATM-DSLAM and the newish IP-DSLAM.
The inband overhead (ESC) of OTN can be used to transmit the NM information through
the local SDH network to the U2000. No DCN is required for remote nodes.

IPTV Network
The IPTV network is constructed in the ring network. A central node sends services to several
edge nodes at the same time. The services can be wavelength services or sub-wavelength
services. In this way, bidirectional transmission of data services is realized.
The IPTV network has the Drop and Continue feature. In the IPTV network, the uplink
service traffic is low. The large service traffic in the downlink, such as TV program signals, is
duplicated at the program source node and then transmitted through special GE channels in
the two directions of the ring network. At each program receiving node, the service traffic is
downloaded, and passed through to other program receiving nodes in the downlink. In this
way, the broadcast or multicast function of TV program signals is realized.

Full-Service Operation
As rich network resources are available, a station can be shared on the access layer. The
WDM equipment provides a large channel for full services and thus enables fast service
provision. In addition, the WDM equipment features long-distance service transmission,
which helps reduce the equipment room, equipment, and interfaces at the edges of the MAN.
In this manner, the TCO is reduced to a great extent.
Accesses services at a rate ranging from 1.5 Mbit/s to 10 Gbit/s, and transmits both the
large-granularity broadband services and small-granularity services. That is, the OptiX
OSN 1800 series can access full services and effectively lower the equipment cost.

In the case of the Ethernet user network where loops exist, the MSTP
generates the tree topology according to VLAN IDs of the Ethernet
packets. Thus, the broadcast storm is avoided and the network traffic
is balanced according to the VLAN IDs of the Ethernet packets.
Overview
The OptiX OSN 1800 series provide the status monitoring function of the protection
mechanism and the detecting function of the protection switching, reliability and resource
availability so as to enhance the network reliability.
There are five protection switching commands, clear switching, locked switching, forced
switching, automatic switching and manual switching, arranged by priority from high to low.
Automatic switching is triggered by the system upon internal switching conditions. Locked
switching, forced switching and manual switching are externally issued on the U2000 as
means to test and maintain the system. A clear switching command can be issued on the
U2000 to clear the preceding three external switching commands.

When the working channel fails, the SNCP switching is implemented as follows:
Before the switching, the source end (ELOM1 board) sends the service signal to the sink
end (ELOM2 board) through both the working channel and protection channel.
When detecting that the signal of the working channel fails, the ELOM2 board reports
the channel signal failure event to the system control board.
The system control board of the sink end checks and ensures that the signal of the
working channel fails but the signal of the protection channel is normal. Then, the
ELOM2 board completes the cross-connection between the protection channel and the
service sink. In this manner, the ELOM2 board receives the service from the protection
channel.
Client service mapping: For customer services whose mapping process has been defined
by Recommendation G.709, the OptiX OSN 1800 series adopt mapping process that is
completely compliant with the Recommendation. These services include SDH services
and Ethernet services. The virtual concatenation technology can be used to map 10GE
services into ODU1-Xv. When the service rate is less than the ODU1, the ODU1 is
equally divided into 16 timeslots to carry the services. Services at different rates are
allocated with different amount of time slots. For example, one time slot carries STM-1
service; four time slots carry STM-4 service; six time slots carry FC100 service. The
division of OTN payload domain improves the utilization of ODU channels.
Channel mapping: The OptiX OSN 1800 series support the mapping of ANY services,
OPU1, ODU0, ODU1 and OTU1 layer by layer in the upstream and downstream
directions.

OAM: The OptiX OSN 1800 series fully support all kinds of administrative overhead
defined by Recommendation G.709. It utilizes GCC byte for ESC management. GCC0,
GCC1, and GCC2 can be chosen to transmit the management information. SM, PM
performance monitoring and reporting is supported. It supports ODUk PM signals
processing. FEC and correction result reporting is supported.
With OTN-related technologies, the OptiX OSN 1800 series have technical advantages in the
following aspects:
It adopts OPUk container to achieve real transparent adaptation and transmission of any
client services without changing any payload or overhead. It also provides effective
management and service quality monitoring. In addition, it can be compatible with
possible new services in the future.
With the asynchronous mapping and multiplexing of ODU0 channel, the sub-rate
services can be flexibly groomed between different OCh channels and the client-side
ports. This meets the need for both high utilization of wavelength bandwidth and flexible
end-to-end grooming.
With the standard FEC by the OTN, it achieves a maximum of 6.2 dB (BER=10E-15)
coding gain. The OSNR tolerance of the optical channel is decreased in this way. In
addition, the distance between electrical regenerators are extended with less system
nodes. This can increase the budgetary optical power gain of the OptiX OSN 1800.

Issue 01 (2011-07-05)
4 Product Features
The Erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) adopted by the system works in the mode of gain
locking. In this mode, the output optical power of the amplifier changes with the input optical
power and the gain is maintained. That is, when the number of wavelengths changes, the
power adjustment time is within 1 ms in the gain locking mode so that the optical power of
other channels remains unaffected and the burst bit error can be avoided during the process of
adding or dropping wavelengths.
The EDFA adopted by the system works in the mode of gain locking. The amplifier is
embedded with the forward and backward feedback control loops, which dynamically respond
to the change of input optical power. When the change is less than 1 dB, the backward
feedback control loop is enabled to control the power precisely. When the change is more than
1dB, the forward feedback control loop is enabled to adjust the power rapidly.
By virtue of the gain locking mode, the system can transmit a single wavelength of signals
and also add or drop wavelengths without affecting services. Due to the embedded
suppression mechanism of the amplifier, if the services suddenly change or the amplifier
degrades over a certain hop, the services over other hops are not affected.
In the extreme situation where only one wavelength is normal and other wavelengths
disappear in the system, the AGC function can ensure that the services over this wavelength
are not affected. A 16-wavelength system is used as an example to illustrate the AGC
function.
In the 16-wavelength system, the transmitting optical power of each channel is +5 dB.
When 15 of the 16 wavelengths disappear, the remaining one is not affected.
The gain locking mode is more effective than the power locking mode in terms of power
efficiency, because the pump optical power is always exported according to the utmost
capacity of the system, regardless of the actual number of working wavelengths.
When the number of wavelengths is changing, AGC would ensure the optical power of remain
channels is not affected. It helps to avoid an outburst of bit errors during adding or dropping
channels from the main stream.
Timing signals extracted from optical signals that the TSP board receives
The OptiX OSN 1800 supports input and output of one 120-ohm external clock source.
The OptiX OSN 1800 supports three clock working modes, that is, the tracing, holdover, and
free-run modes. The timing signals from optical signals that the line board receives and 2
Mbit/s timing signals also process and transfer synchronization status messages (SSMs).
The SDH clock has the following features:
Issue 01 (2011-07-05)
The synchronous physical clock can be easily achieved and is highly reliable.
4-5
4 Product Features
The synchronous physical clock adopts the SSM information to indicate clock quality
and exclusive SDH overheads to transfer the SSM.
The physical-layer clock can be directly extracted at ports and the QoS of the clock
satisfies the requirement.
The physical-layer clock adopts the SSM information to indicate clock quality and
exclusive Ethernet packets or OTN overheads to transfer the SSM information.
BMC Algorithm
For the PTP clock, the best master clock (BMC) algorithm is adopted to select the clock
source.
The best master clock (BMC) algorithm compares data describing two or more clocks to
determine which data describes the better clock, and selects the better clock as the clock
source. The BMC algorithm includes the following algorithms:
Data set comparison algorithm: The NE determines which of the clocks is better, and
selects the better clock as the clock source. If an NE receives two or more channels of
clock signals from the same grandmaster clock (GMC), the NE selects one channel of
the clock signals that traverses the least number of nodes as the clock source.
State decision algorithm: The state decision algorithm determines the next state of the
port based on the results of the data set comparison algorithm.
Clock Architecture
There are three models for the IEEE 1588 v2 clock architecture.
4-6
Issue 01 (2011-07-05)
4 Product Features
OC (Ordinary Clock): A clock that has a single IEEE 1588 v2 port and the clock needs to
be restored. It may serve as a source of time (master clock), or may synchronize to
another clock (slave clock).
BC (Boundary Clock): A clock that has multiple IEEE 1588 v2 ports and the clock needs
to be restored. It may serve as the source of time, (master clock), and may synchronize to
another clock (slave clock).
TC (Transparent Clock): A device that measures the time taken for a PTP event message
to transit the device and provides this information to clocks receiving this PTP event
message. That is, the clock device functions as an intermediate clock device to
transparently transmit the clock and process the delay, but does not restore the clock. It
can effectively deal with the accumulated error effects resulting from the master and
slave hierarchical architecture. In this manner, the TC ensures that the clock/time
synchronization precision meets the application requirement.
The TC is classified into peer-to-peer (P2P) TC and end-to-end (E2E) TC according to
the delay processing mechanism.
P2P TC: When the PTP packets are transmitted to the P2P TC, the P2P TC corrects
both the residence time of the PTP packets and the transmission delay of the link
connected to the receive port. The P2P TC is mainly used in the MESH networking.
E2E TC: When the PTP packets are transmitted to the E2E TC, the E2E TC corrects
only the residence time of the PTP packets. The E2E delay computation mechanism
between the master and slave clocks is adopted. The intermediate nodes do not
process the transmission delay but transparently transmit the PTP packets. The E2E
TC is mainly used in the chain networking.
OptiX OSN 1800 can support the OC, BC, TC, TC+OC, BC + physical-layer clock, and
TC+BC at present.

4.5.2 QoS
Quality of service (QoS) defines the expected class of service, in terms of the bandwidth,
delay, delay variation, and packet loss ratio, which should be guaranteed under all
circumstances in a communication network. This ensures that the request and response of an
application meets the expected class of service.
On a traditional IP network, all packets are treated in the same way. Every router adopts the
first in first out (FIFO) policy to process packets, and makes its best effort to transmit packets
to the destination; however, the packet transmission performances such as the reliability and
delay are not ensured.
To support voice, video, and data services that have different service requirements, a network
must be able to differentiate communication types and thus provide relevant service.
In the case of the transmission where prioritized queues are used to support QoS, sets one of
the egress queues as a strict-priority (SP) queue, so that packets in this queue are always
groomed with the highest priority. This setting meets the requirements of key service packets.
The other egress queues adopt the weighted round robin (WRR) grooming algorithm so that
packets in each queue can obtain a certain period of service.
The Ethernet service processing boards provide the QoS function. By providing dedicated
bandwidths, lowering the packet loss ratio, and reducing the packet transmission delay and
delay jitter, the QoS function helps provide different classes of service for different customers.
The QoS function complies with the following standards: IETF RFC2697, RFC2698,
RFC2309, RFC2597, RFC2598, and IEEE802.1p.

ETH-OAM
The Ethernet operation, administration, and maintenance (ETH-OAM) function improves the
Ethernet Layer 2 maintenance method and provides powerful maintenance function for
service continuity check, deployment commissioning, and network troubleshooting.
The Ethernet processing board of the OptiX OSN 1800 can implement the ETH-OAM
function, which complies with IEEE 802.1ag, and ITU-T Y.1731 standards. The combination
of the operation, administration, and maintenance provides a complete Ethernet OAM
solution, thus realizing automatic fault discovery and fault location.
The ETH-OAM function compliant with IEEE 802.1ag and ITU-T Y.1731 standards is
implemented in the following ways:
Link tracing (LT) test: used to locate faults at the faulty point.
For details about the ETH-OAM function, see the Feature Description.
RMON
The remote monitoring (RMON) function can monitor the transport network data of different
network segments.
The RMON function defines a series of statistical forms and functions to exchange data
between the control station and detection station that comply with the RMON standard. In this
manner, the RMON function is able to manage the Ethernet port. The RMON function
provides flexible detection modes and control mechanisms to meet the requirements of
different types of networks. In addition, the RMON function provides error diagnosis,
network planning, and reception of performance event information on a networkwide basis.
Flow Control
Flow control on Ethernet services is implemented by controlling the transmission rate of the
opposite equipment using Pause frames based on IEEE 802.3x standards.
For example, the OptiX OSN 1800 is configured with the bandwidth of 50 Mbit/s and the
opposite switch transmits packets to the OptiX OSN 1800 at the rate of 100 Mbit/s. In this
case, packets will be discarded because of insufficient bandwidth if flow control is not
configured. If flow control is configured, the OptiX OSN 1800 will send Pause frames to the
opposite switch after detecting insufficient bandwidth. Then the switch will reduce the
transmission rate to 50 Mbit/s to ensure normal packet transmission.

This function can be realized by using the combination of the PRBS signal generator and
PRBS signal monitor. The PRBS signal generator of the OTU that supports PRBS bit error
detection generates and transmits PRBS signals. The PRBS signal monitor monitors the PRBS
codes transmitted from the PRBS signal generator and the PRBS codes looped back from the
opposite station. In other words, the PRBS signal monitor compares the transmitted signals
with the looped-back signals and determines whether the equipment or transmission line is
normal.

The small form-factor pluggable modules are used on the client side and WDM side of some
OTU boards. When the type of the accessed service is changed or the module is faulty, replace
only the module rather than the board.
The TXFP module supports wavelength adjustment, which significantly reduces costs of spare
parts and inventories.
4.9.1 DCN
The WDM equipment supports the OSC and the ESC technologies to bear the embedded
control channel (ECC) to implement the DCN.
The ECC is used to implement the operation, administration, and maintenance (OAM)
communication function between NEs. The ECC is established on the data communications
channel (DCC). For the SDH equipment, the ECC is carried on the section overhead bytes
D1-D12. Generally, the regenerator section overhead bytes D1-D3 are used. For the WDM
equipment, the ECC is carried on the OSC or ESC supervisory channel.

Huawei equipment supports all the previous protocol stacks. The HWECC protocol is
supported by default. The IP over DCC protocol or OSI over DCC protocol is supported
selectively depending on the networking.
When no optical signals are input to the receive optical interface on the client side of the
opposite OTU board, the local OTU board automatically shuts down the laser for the
output optical interface on the corresponding client side.
When no optical signals are input to the receive optical interface on the WDM side of the
OTU board, the OTU board automatically shuts down all the lasers for the output optical
interface on the client side with the ALS function enabled.

IF function enabled
When no optical signals are input to the receive optical interface on the client side of
the opposite OTU board, if the IF function at the corresponding transmit optical
interface on the client side of the local OTU board is enabled, the transmit optical
interface on the local board automatically inserts maintenance code streams.
When no optical signals are input to the receive optical interface on the WDM side of
the OTU board or a fault is generated at the ODU or OTU layer, all transmit optical
interfaces with the IF function enabled on the client side of the OTU board insert
maintenance code streams.

4 Product Features
IF function disabled
When no optical signals are input to the receive optical interface on the client side of
the opposite OTU board, if the IF function at the corresponding transmit optical
interface on the client side of the local OTU board is disabled, the transmit optical
interface on the local board inserts the K28.5 code stream.
When no optical signals are input to the receive optical interface on the WDM side of
the OTU board or a fault is generated at the ODU or OTU layer, all transmit optical
interfaces with the IF function disabled on the client side of the OTU board insert the
K28.5 code stream.
When you adopt package upgrade mode, you can load all NE software and board
software on the NE at the same time, so that you need not repeat the operation of loading
software for one board at a time.
When you adopt package diffusion upgrade mode, the mode can be classified in to
board-level activation and NE-level activation. In the case of board-level activation, you
can use proper activation groups. This greatly improves the loading efficiency.
To ensure that the upgrade is successful, perform a physical check on the OptiX OSN 1800
series before the upgrade, such as checking NE alarms and NE software.
Software package loading has the following features:
The loading process is based on only the desired NE and is performed in one graphic
user interface (GUI).
The NE can be automatically managed. The software of the newly seated board is
automatically updated when it does not match the software of the NE. So the efficiency
of the software upgrade is improved.
Software package loading is an incremental loading process in which only the files that
need be updated are loaded.
Software package loading supports the rollback function. When the software or hardware
of the system is faulty, the loading fails, and the NE software is restored to the status
before loading.
