NETWORK DEVELOPMENT DEMANDS OF MSE 5001
1.1
Current Situation, Demands and Solutions
The opening of the telecom markets of various countries and customers increasing demands on services and
equipment security not only sharpens the competition between operators, but presents new demands on
equipment manufacturers. It is required that the access layer products should provide more perfect protection,
including the Equipment Protection Switch (EPS), and active/standby protection for important boards and
configuration data. Besides, the equipment is required to be smaller in size and lower in cost. To meet this market
demand, AREVA has developed the MSE 5001 product, which are more reliable and cost-effective, thus making
equipment networking more economical.

The equipment protection includes the EPS, 1+1 hot backup of power interface unit, 1+1 backup of cross-connect
& timing unit and service data backup of system control & communication unit.
The network protection includes the Path Protection (PP), Subnetwork Connection Protection (SNCP) and
Multiplexing Section Protection (MSP).
2.1.1.2
Cross-connection capability
The MSE 5001 is capable of 2020 VC-4 and 1260x1260 VC12 full cross-connection.
2.1.1.3
Flexible service access capability
An MSE 5001 can access STM-4, STM-1, E1/T1, E3/DS3 and 10M/100M Ethernet service.
Maximum STM-4 service accessed: 2STM-4.
Maximum STM-1 service accessed: 6STM-1.
Maximum E1/T1 service accessed: 96E1/T1 when not providing EPS; 80E1/T1 when providing EPS.
Maximum E3/DS3 service accessed: 18E3/DS3 when not providing EPS; 12E3/DS3 when providing
EPS.
Maximum Ethernet service accessed: 1210M/100M.
2.1.1.4
Flexible networking capability
The MSE 5001 can be configured flexibly as Terminal Multiplexer (TM) or Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) system.
Each Network Element (NE) can be configured either as a single STM-1/STM-4 TM or ADM system, or as a multiADM system combined with STM-1/STM-4, and is capable of cross-connection between multiple systems. Each
NE supports multiple network topologies, including the chain, ring, ring with chain, tangent ring.
2.1.1.5
NMS with perfect functionality
The Areva TMS 5000 performs unified Operation Administration and Maintenance (OAM) functions on the complex
network formed by MSE 5001, and achieves the configuration and grooming of circuits for a secure network
operation.
2.1.1.6
Power supply and environment monitoring function
The MSE 5001 monitors the specific voltage value and voltage status of the power supply such as severe
undervoltage, ordinary undervoltage, provides alarm input and alarm output function. The alarm input function may
be used to achieve remote monitoring of the user environment. The alarm output function may be used to connect
the alarm interfaces of the centralised alarm system to perform centralised monitoring of alarms from each piece of
equipment.
2.1.1.7
Synchronisation Status Message management function
The MSE 5001 provides Synchronisation Status Message (SSM) management function of synchronous clock, with
which the occurrence of timing loop can be avoided during clock switching. With this function, when the
synchronous timing signal traced by the system is degraded, the downstream nodes can switch the input clock
source or change into holdover working status in time, instead of waiting until the synchronous timing signal is
detected to be over the deterioration threshold. Thus, the synchronous operation quality of the entire network can
be improved. Besides, SSM management function can simplify the planning and design of the synchronous
network.
MSE 5001
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Page 10/48
The MSE 5001 NE clock also has perfect SSM management function. Its external synchronous clock input port can
directly receive synchronous information of the external timing equipment. The clock from the synchronous clock
output port also has the SSM function. It is flexible to set the bits of the SSM in the external 2048kbit/s signals to
facilitate the connection with the third-party equipment. In addition, it is able to set the SSM threshold of each NE
for an easy synchronous network management.

SOFTWARE STRUCTURE OF MSE 5001
4.1
Software Structure
The software system of the MSE 5001 system is of modular structure, composed of board software, NE software
and Network Management System(NMS). The three modules reside respectively on the functional boards, system
control & communication board and NMS computer, and perform specific functions. Software structure of the MSE
5001 system is shown in Figure 7. In the figure, all modules are NE software except "Network Management
System" and "Board Software". The following details the functions of the three modules and how the functions are
implemented.

4.2
Board Software
It directly controls the functional circuits. In the corresponding board, it implements specific functions of the NE and
the function of default filtering and one second filtering, and it supports the board management from the NE
software.
4.3
NE Software
Real time multi-task operating system
The real time multi-task operating system of the MSE 5001 system NE software is responsible for managing
public resources and supporting application programs. It isolates the application programs from the processor
and provides an application program execution environment, which is independent of the processor hardware.
Mailbox communication
Mailbox communication is the interface module between host software and board software. According to the
corresponding communication protocol, communication function between NE software and board software is
implemented for information exchange and equipment maintenance. Via mailbox communication, board
maintenance and operation commands from the NE software are sent to the boards. On the other hand, the
corresponding board status and alarm and performance events are reported to the NE software.
Equipment management module

Equipment management module is the kernel of the NE software for implementing network element
management. It includes Manager and Agent. Manager can send network management operation commands
and receive events. Agent can respond the network management operation commands sent by the manager,
implement operations to the managed object, and send events according to state change of the managed
object.
Communication module
The communication module exchanges management information between Network Management (NM) system
and NE and among NEs. It consists of network communication module, serial communication module and ECC
communication module.
Database management module

The database management module is an organic part of the NE software. It includes two independent parts:
data and program. The data are organised in the form of the database, made up of network database, alarm
database, performance database and equipment database. The program accesses and manages data in the
database.
4.4
NM System
The MSE 5001 uses AREVA TMS 5000. This NMS is capable of managing the optical transmission network on a
uniform basis and maintaining SDH, Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) and NEs in the whole
network. In compliance with International Telecommunication Union Telecommunication Standardisation Sector
(ITU-T) Recommendations, it is a network management system integrating standard management information
model and object-oriented management technology. It exchanges information with NE software via the
communication module to implement monitoring and management over network equipment.
Via the NMS, users can perform such operations on the NE as configuration management, fault management,
performance management, security management, path management, and report management.

10M/100M Ethernet Interface Board
5.5.3.1
Type
The MSE 5001 provides one kind of Ethernet Interface Board, for 10M/100M Ethernet service access.
5.5.3.2
ET1D : 2-port Ethernet Electrical Interface Board(VC-12).

Functions of ET1D board
The interface board has the following functions:
Provides 2-port 10M/100M auto-negotiation Ethernet electrical interfaces. The Ethernet signals are
accessed via RJ-45 interfaces on the front panel.
Electrical features (such as flow control) of Ethernet interface follow IEEE 802.3x protocol.
The packets from 1~2 10M/100M Ethernet frames can be mapped into 1~16 VC-12. If Ni E1 signals can
be mapped in each port, Ni is no more than 16. The number of E1 signals that can be mapped by the
ET1D board is Ni 16 (i is the number of Ethernet interfaces used on the ET1D board, i=1~2).
Since Ethernet frames are mapped into VC-12s and transmitted in SDH network, so Ethernet service can
be protected with SDH layer protection.
Provides bandwidth sharing and statistical multiplexing based on the Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)
and port to improve bandwidth utilisation ratio.
Provides Ethernet Layer-2 route functions (Layer-2 route can be realised by extracting Medium Access
Control (MAC) source address and port information from input MAC frames at input port, and store them in
MAC address table with capacity of 8k. It also supports manually adding MAC addresses and port
information to MAC address table).
Provides security isolation among users, and security isolation among VLANs within one user (one ET1D
board supports up to two users).
To prevent conflict of the data with same VLAN but of different users, the ET1D board must isolate VLAN of
different users to separate VLANs. Therefore, user ID is introduced: ports (including the MAC port and VC-Trunk
port) with the same user ID belong to a group and any Ethernet data is limited to this group. At the same time, the
VLAN is isolated within each user. Data of different VLAN cannot be forwarded either.
All ports of the ET1D board can be divided into a number of groups and a user uses a separate group.
Supports multicast and broadcast functions. (for broadcast packet, the ET1D board forwards to all ports
with the same VLAN of the same user. With Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) SNOOPING
multicast function, the ET1D board establishes route information of multicast addresses to avoid broadcast
storm.)
Provides IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) function to avoid failure in transfer of MAC frames,
broadcast storm, MAC frame receiving sequence error, and so on in network topology with loops.
Provides multiple inloop and outloop methods to enable fast and effective trouble shooting.
Provides the functions of flow control.
When the rate of the data flow receiving at the Ethernet port is larger than the rate of encaPIUlating and mapping
data at the SDH line, or when the rate of de-mapping and de-caPIUlating data frame at the SDH line is larger than
the rate of the data flow transmitting at the Ethernet port, the data saved in the memory will increase. When the
MSE 5001
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Page 25/48
data saved reach to a certain value, the control unit will send a signal to the line with larger rate of data flow, so as
to control the data increase, thus balancing the data processing at both sides. When the data in the memory
decrease to a certain value, the control unit will send another signal to end the flow control and notify data channel
to restore to normal.
5.5.4
Leading-out Mode
5.5.4.1
Ethernet tributary unit
The front leading-out mode is adopted for Ethernet tributary signals. The signals are accessed in/out of the
Ethernet board via RJ-45 connector.
5.5.4.2
PDH tributary unit
Leading-out mode is adopted for tributary signals. The connecting board performs the signal transfer and connects
the signal output from the tributary board directly to the leading-out interface.
The MSE 5001 provides one kind of tributary connecting boards:
C12: 16E1/T1 electrical interface board.
When the equipment is required to provide EPS protection, the following boards must be used in combination:
C75S: 16E1 75 electrical interface switching & bridge board.

Orderwire Unit
The orderwire unit implements its function by means of the EOW board, which provides one-channel orderwire and
4-channel data transmission interfaces,(or three Boolean inputs and one Boolean output).
The orderwire phone interface conforms to Pulse-Code Modulation (PCM) standards.
The Orderwire unit can perform the following functions:
Implements the extraction and insertion of overhead bytes such as E1, E2, and F2.
Provides one-channel orderwire phone via E1/E2 byte, and supports the functions of addressing call and
conference call.
Provides four transparent transmission RS-232 broadcast interfaces, namely, S1, S2, S3 and S4, via F2,
X1, X2 and X3 bytes. The maximum transmission rate is 19.2kbit/s for each data interface. Both point-topoint and point-to-multi-point transmission are available.
Four data interfaces can be multiplexed into three Boolean inputs and one Boolean output.
Provides communication module to keep communication with the SCC board, reports alarms to the TMS
5000 and receives the commands from the TMS.
5.7
Power Interface Unit
The power interface unit implements its function by means of PIU board and adopts centralised power supply
mode. The input power supply is -48V/-60V DC. The input -48V/-60V DC passes the input protection module which
provides the integrated equipment power interface with power reverse polarity non-destructive protection, lightning
protection, Electromagnetic Interference(EMI) filtering and satisfies the EMC design requirements.
The power interface unit can perform the following functions:
Monitors the input/output voltage and provides the input under-voltage, power module failure alarm and
under-voltage shutdown function.
Provides the system with power 1+1 backup. The equipment can still run normally even if one PIU board
becomes faulty.
Provides the board temperature detection by means of the temperature sensor to monitor the operating
temperature of the board.
5.8
Fan Interface Unit
The fan interface unit implements its function by means of the FAN board.
The fan interface unit can perform the following functions:
Possesses the intelligent fan functions. When the fan interface unit detects the temperature crosses the
upper limit, the fan will rotate at a higher speed. When the fan interface unit detects the temperature drops
to the lower limit of 3C, the fan will rotate at a lower speed.
Detects the fan fault. If any fan stops rotating, it will report the alarm and the red alarm indicator will turn
on.
Provides over-voltage protection for the fans. Since 48V/-60 power supply works under 38.4V ~ -72V,
while the fan should works under the voltage less than 56V, so the over-voltage protection is a must.
Supports the board hot-swapping.
Supports the query of the fan board temperature.
Supports the query of the board information.

layer, therefore it has simple networking modes and can constitute such topology networking modes, such as
chain, ring, ring with chain, tangent ring and shared optical fibre virtual trail.

RELIABILITY DESIGN OF MSE 5001
The MSE 5001 employs a variety of advanced protection technologies in designing its hardware and software, and
provides multiple protection mechanisms for the network, thus guaranteeing a top-quality transmission service.
7.1
Equipment-Level Protection
7.1.1
1+1 Redundancy Hot Backup Protection for Power Supply
The power system can provide two -48V/-60V DC feed-ins and the power boards in Slot1 and Slot2 back up each
other. Thus, even if one board becomes faulty, the equipment will not be negatively affected.
7.1.2
1+1 Backup Protection for Cross-Connect & Timing Unit
The cross-connect and timing boards in Slot 7 and Slot 8 are in mutual backup mode. In case one board becomes
faulty, the equipment can still work normally.
7.1.3
Tributary Protection Switching
The MSE 5001 provides the EPS function. When the tributary board is not in position or pulled off, the EPS
protection will be started. Meantime, when some modules or components such as power, software, clock, etc. of a
tributary board work abnormally, the EPS protection can also be triggered.
EPS protection has the following types available:
1:N (N5) EPS protection for E1/T1 electrical interface board.
The E1/T1 electrical interface board in Slot12 protects those in Slot4, Slot5, Slot6, Slot10 and Slot11.
Two groups of 1:N (N2) EPS protections for E3/DS3 electrical interface board.
The E3/DS3 electrical interface board in Slot6 protects those in Slot4 and Slot5.
The E3/DS3 electrical interface board in Slot12 protects those in Slot10 and Slot11.
Both the protection of a group of 1:N (N3) 2048kbit/s or 1544kibt/s and a group of 1:N (N2)34368kbit/s
or 44736kbit/s electrical interfaces exist.
The E1/T1 electrical interface board in Slot12 protects those in Slot4 or Slot10 or Slot11.
The E3/DS3 electrical interface board in Slot6 protects that in Slot5 or Slot 4.
7.1.4
Backup of System Control & Communication Service Data
The configuration data on the SCC board are backed up on the active and standby XCS0/XCS1/XCS4 boards
respectively, and the two sets of data back up each other. When the SCC board becomes faulty and has been
replaced with a new one, it is not necessary to re-send the configuration data. The new SCC board will first read
the data from the active XCS0/XCS1/XCS4 board, and if failed, it will turn to the standby one. Thus, the
configuration data on the SCC board are still kept consistent.

7.2
Network-Level Protection
The MSE 5001 has superior performance in self-healing protection and can implement two-fibre unidirectional path
protection, subnetwork connection protection, linear multiplex section protection and ring multiplex section
protection. Thus, the services on the network can get effective protection in case of fibre cut, line board damage or
node failure.
7.2.1
Path Protection
The protection mechanism of a two-fibre unidirectional path protection ring and that of a two-fibre bidirectional path
protection ring are shown respectively in Figure 13 and Figure 14. Diagram (a) shows the service direction in
normal status, and Diagram (b) the service direction in switching status.

Subnetwork Connection Protection
As network structures are becoming more and more complicated, subnetwork connection protection (SNCP) is the
only service protection mode applicable for various network topologies with a fast switching speed. SNCP is a
protection at path layer and is used to protect the service between the two points in any complicated networks (e.g.,
two-fibre path protection ring on the ring network). The support of the MSE 5001 for SNCP is completely in
compliance with ITU-T Recommendation G.841. Even in the case of multiple service switching, the MSE 5001 can
also meet the requirements of switching time less than 50ms.
MSE 5001
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Page 31/48
7.2.3
Multiplex Section Protection
7.2.3.1
Linear multiplex section protection
Linear multiplex section protection is mainly used in linear networking mode. There are two kinds of protection
modes: 1+1 protection mode and 1:N (N 3) protection mode. Under the 1+1 protection mode, each working
system is protected by a dedicated standby system. Under the 1:N protection mode, N systems share one
protection system. For the latter protection mode when the systems run smoothly the protection system can be
used to transmit extra services in order to achieve higher efficiency. However, it needs a complicated Automatic
Protection Switching (APS) protocol. The MSE 5001 supports the 1+1 and 1:N protection modes in the point-topoint linear networking mode. Under the 1:1 protection mode, protection system can carry additional services. For
those protection modes, the switching time is less than 50ms as specified in ITU-T Recommendations.
7.2.3.2
Ring multiplex section protection
The protection mechanism of two-fibre bidirectional multiplex section protection and that of two-fibre unidirectional
multiplex section protection are shown respectively in Figure 15 and Figure 16. Diagram (a) shows the service
direction in normal status, and diagram (b) the service direction in switching status.

Shared Optical Fibre Virtual Trail
When MSE 5001 systems are used to construct the network, one ring can share the intersection section of fibres
on the other ring in the two-ring intersection topology, and can use surplus transmission bandwidth of this section
as virtual optical paths, thus economizing fibres and optical interface boards. This kind of networking is referred to
as the shared optical fibre virtual trail. Bandwidth limitations of the two rings must be taken into consideration when
using shared fibre virtual trail protection ring.
The topology of a typical shared optical fibre virtual trail protection ring is illustrated in Figure 17.

The implementation of multiplex section protection requires APS protocol. But VC-4 traffics through the shared
virtual optical trails on the shared fibre virtual trail protection ring belong to different protection groups, the APS
protocol can not be shared by them. On a shared optical fibre virtual trail protection ring, only path protection or
SNCP can be employed to protect the services.

Areva TMS 5000
The MSE 5010 is uniformly managed by the NM system. Through the Qx interface or MML interface, the NM
system can implement management, maintenance and test to the whole optical transmission system in terms of
fault, performance, configuration and security. The NM system improves the quality of network services, reduces
the maintenance cost and ensures rational use of network resources.
Areva provides telecommunication operators with a whole series of optical transmission systems, which can be
used on networks of different layers. To manage sub-network, area network or national network efficiently, the NM
system is required to feature basic operation and maintenance functions and the monitoring and management
capability on the optical transmission network as well. According to the Telecommunications Management Network
(TMN) network management hierarchical model, the telecommunication network management is divided into
network element layer (NEL), NE management layer (EML), network management layer (NML), service
management layer (SML) and business management layer (BML). The NE management system manages NE
equipments within one subnet, while the NM system implements the network layer assignment, fault monitoring,
performance analysis, resource analysis, circuit dispatching, etc. in a large-scale network.
To adapt to network management of different scales and levels, the management system of Areva consists of the
local maintenance terminal and the NE management system. These products cover the applications of the TMN
from the NE management layer to the subnet management, and contain part of the service management layer
functions. With these products, Areva is able to provide telecommunication operators with a complete package of
network management solutions for single equipment, single service to large scale and multi-service networks.
