1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEW
The SAFN is an Access/Transport device for the numerical network that enables transmission of
speech and data signals, it is particularly suitable for use in the railway, motorway, oil and gas,
pipeline sectors etc. (“utilities” applications).
The equipment can execute analogue/digital coding, multiplexing, and sub-multiplexing, cross-
connecting and routine functions.
SAFN can manage different types of user interfaces, multiplexing these voice and data tributary
channels in one or higher stream rates.
These multiplexed streams are managed by means of interfaces suitable for both the connection to
higher order multiplexing equipment (Exchange Terminals) and for the transmission directly on
copper or fibre optics (Line Terminal).
In the case of Line Terminals on optical fibres, SAFN uses the SDH hierarchy standards for the
circuit part or the Fast Ethernet / Gigabit Ethernet solution for the packet part.
In case of Line Terminals on copper, SAFN uses such xDSL techniques to cover (with a 2 Mb/s
stream) the usual links already present within “utilities” environment.
SAFN, which is suitable for use in synchronous networks as far as the circuit part is concerned,
and is equipped with a centralized matrix, can be used to perform the following functions:
 Terminal Access Node, with multiplexing and sub multiplexing
 Drop/Insert Access Node, in linear and ring networks
 Cross-connecting Node, in meshed and tree networks
The integrated VoIP Gateway and IP-PBX functions mean that the device can be used to realize a
Telephone Service System.
Introduction 1-1
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
The main equipment performances are shown here below:

 Terminal Multiplexer and Add Drop Multiplexer on the SDH (STM-1/4 155 Mb/s – 622Mb/s)
 Ethernet over SDH (EoS)
 Multiplexing, Sub multiplexing, Drop/Insert, Cross-connection on the SDH
 1+1 Carrier protection (MSP)
 Channel protection for ring or mesh networks (SNCP)
 Coexistence of TDM and IP traffic on the same carrier
 Remote Bridge and Routing IP
 Integrated VoIP gateway and IP-PBX functions
 Point-to-Point, Point-Multipoint and Omnibus connections
 Priority list for the synchronization sources
 Automatic mechanisms for the synchronization management in ring networks
 Redundancy of the common parts
 Non-blocking switching matrix
 Channels allocation independent from the physical position in the sub-rack
 Service channel (EOC) for diagnostics, configuration and software updates (including
remotely)
 Integrated dial-up manager

1.2 APPLICATIONS
The SAFN applications are mainly addressed to the realization of private networks. These require
performances more complex and diversified than the public networks and include: specific
interfaces, Point-Multipoint and Omnibus connections, multiplexing and cross-connecting within the
same equipment, remote management of not-controlled stations, high survival to the equipment
and network failures to ensure the continuity of the high priority services.
The SAFN platform offers solutions for the following applications:
 Communication between SCADA and RTU (Telecontrol / Teleconduction)
Introduction 1-3
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
 PBX extension (remote telephones)
 Connections between PBX
 VoIP telephony services (Unicast, Multicast, Broadcast)
 Video surveillance (CCTV)
 Audio broadcast and emergency telephony
 Broadcast data
In the case of systems with relative small numbers of users (for example, intermediate stations
along pipelines or railway lines) the advantage of the SELTA solution is that it combines a range of
functions (Add-Drop SDH, Primary Multiplex, Sub multiplexer, Router/Bridge and PBX) in a single
device type.
Even when it is necessary to handle large volumes of traffic that exceeds the capacity of a single
SAFN, the SELTA solution can be expanded to include multiple SAFN devices, thus maintaining
the advantage of using a single device type

720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
SAFN
2 PERFORMANCES
2.1 FUNCTIONS
2.1.1 Multiplexing
SAFN can multiplex on 155 Mb/s, 622 Mb/s or 2 Mb/s carriers:
 All 2 Mb/s, 64 kb/s and Nx64 kb/s data tributary streams, with the relative associated signalling
according to ITU-T G.706 multiframe structure.
 All the streams obtained from analogue tributaries, after PCM coding according to ITU-T G.711,
with the relative associated signalling according to ITU-T G.706 multiframe structure.
The multiplexing is made without constrains about the allocation, deriving neither from the interface
typology nor from the physical position of the unit in the sub-rack.
2.1.2 Sub-multiplexing
SAFN can multiplex synchronous and asynchronous data, in accordance with ITU-T X.50 div.3, at
speeds between 1.2 kb/s and 19.2 kb/s, in a 64 kb/s stream.
The stream derived from the sub multiplexing process may be used directly in multiplexing and cross-
connection operations, without the need for 64 kb/s interface boards.
2.1.3 Cross-connecting (and Drop/Insert)

SAFN can cross-connect, in a flexible and programmable way, channels of the following types:
 64 kb/s data channels
 64 kb/s speech channels with the relative associated signalling
 2 Mb/s and Nx64 kb/s data channels.
 X.50 structured low rate data channels
In realizing the cross-connection, SAFN maintains the integrity of the informative octets, both data
and voice.
The sequentially of the octets is guaranteed in the case of Nx64 kb/s data channels.
In case of voice channels, also the associated signalling is cross-connected in “TS16” time-slot,
together with the respective voice.
The realization of the cross-connections between voice and data channels, coming from the different
aggregates, doesn’t require the presence of the channel unit correspondent to the cross-connected
channels.

Performances 2-1
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
The cross-connection is executed in non-blocking mode, the only requirement being that the Nx64
kb/s stream structures are maintained (in order to guarantee the sequentially of the stream).
In particular, the cross-connection allows implementing of mixed nodes, with local users and traffic
branches towards more directions (multi-branch), or simple transit nodes (digital distribution frames).
2.1.4 Remote Bridge and Routing IP
The device permits both circuit and packet traffic to co-exist on the same carrier (whether copper or
fibre).
The band to be assigned to each traffic type can be programmed flexibly.
2.1.5 Telephone Service System
The device also features the VoIP gateway function that can be used to transfer speech and the
SAFN speech interface signals onto the packet part.
This function, combined with the possibility of activating an IP-PBX function on the device, makes it
easy to set up a Telephone Service System.

SAFN
Multiplexer / Neither the type of interface nor the physical position in the sub frame place any
limits on the number of channels that may be allocated.
Sub multiplexer
The flow derived from the sub multiplexing (users between 1.2 kb/s and 19.2 kb/s)
may be used directly in multiplexing and cross-connection operations, without the
need for a 64 kb/s interface.
Cross- The Drop-Insert and cross-connection of the data and speech channels, from the
connector different aggregates, does not require the presence of the channel unit
corresponding data and speech interfaces.
The associated signalling is also cross-connected via TS16, together with the
respective speech channels.
Thanks to the Remote-Bridge and IP-routing functions it is possible to handle circuit
Router/Bridge
and packet traffic on the same carrier.
This solution is especially useful when using an adaptive bit-rate carrier (for example,
the g.shdsl Line Terminal).
The VoIP gateway functions transfers all the telephonic interfaces (standard and
VoIP Gateway
special) handled by the SAFN to TCP/IP.
IP-PBX
The IP-PBX function can be used to insert the Service Telephony applications in the
Transport/Access device.

In real applications, these functions can be combined inside a single network node.

2.2 CONNECTIONS
The following connection typologies can be implemented on SAFN equipment:
- Point-Point connections
- Point-Multipoint connections
- Omnibus connections
All these connections can be implemented both on voice and data channels and can be relative both
to tributaries and aggregates.
Both transit channels (on cross-connections) and local channels can be indifferently involved in the
connections.
Proper solutions are taken in this equipment to ensure that the failure or the absence of a channel
unit, related to an interested stream or to a Point-Multipoint or Omnibus connection, causes such a
state on the aggregate stream not to damage the correct connection among the other channels
involved in the Point-Multipoint or Omnibus structure.
2.2.1 Point-Point
SAFN can realize Point-Point data and voice connections over all the channel typologies managed by
the equipment.
The channels of a single Point-Point connection must have the same bit rate.
When the channel involved in the Point-Point connection is a voice channel, with associated
signalling, the equipment provides to correctly connect both the voice and its signalling.

2.2.2 Point-Multipoint
SAFN can realize Point-Multipoint data and voice connections. These connections may be associated
with low rate data channels with X.50 type multiplexing and 64 kb/s speech channels with associated
signalling.
All the channels of a single Point-Multipoint connection must have the same bit rate.
The Point-Multipoint connection over low rate channels realizes the following functions:
 After the definition of a “Central” channel and other “Peripheral” channels, the connection sends
the information coming from the Central to all the Peripheral channels.
 The information is sent to the “Central” channel from the “Peripheral” one, which has activated the
state bit correspondent to the C105 interface criterion (the application must ensure that, in each
moment, only a single peripheral user sends some data).
The Point-Multipoint connection on voice channels (useful for the realization of Point-Multipoint
structures on voice users, constituting the modulation of data channels) realizes the following
functionalities:
 After the definition of a “Central” channel and other “Peripheral” channels, the connection sends
the information coming from the Central to all the Peripheral channels.
 The speech and signals from all the “Peripherals” are sent to the “Central”, with the conference on
the speech and the AND on the signals. (The application must ensure that only one “Peripheral”
user is transmitting at any given moment).
It is also possible to manage Point-Multipoint connection on data channels.

This operation mode allows working also when the ‘Peripheral’ terminals are not able to pilot interface
criterions.
On DCE ports configured as Peripheral the interface criterion C105 (RTS) can be set as “active
forced” and the equipment makes automatically the logical sum on the data flows.
The Point-Multipoint connection works correctly if the Peripheral terminals operate in mutually
exclusive way (only one DTE will respond to the exchange terminal, the others will keep the data line
in “idle” state)
The described mode is implemented on all DCE and SAFN type ports (i.e. on
synchronous/asynchronous data channels between 1.2kb/s and 19.2kb/s, with V.28 type electrical
interfaces).

2.2.3 Omnibus
SAFN can realize Omnibus connections for voice and data interfaces. These connections may be
associated with 64 kb/s and Nx64 kb/s rate data channels, low rate data channels with X.50 type
multiplexing and 64 kb/s speech channels with associated signalling.
All the channels of a single Point-Multipoint connection must have the same bit rate.
The Omnibus connection over the low rate data channels realizes the following functions:
 The information coming from the channel with the activated state bit correspondent to the C105
interface criterion is reported to each channel involved in the connection (the stand-by users must
not transmit data).
The Omnibus connection over the voice channels (used for the conference) realizes the following
functionalities:
 The voice and the signalling coming from all the other channels involved in that connection (with
the conference over the voice and the AND over the signalling) are reported to each channel
involved in the connection.

2.3 CAPACITY
2.3.1 Equipping
The device is available in three different mechanical configurations: SAFN-S, SAFN-SR ,SAFN-M and
SAFN-SE.
The capacity of the SAFN-S and SAFN-SR devices can be summarized as follows:
 Can handle 14 dedicated card slots irrespective of aggregates and tributaries, i.e. repetitive units;
on the SAFN-S version the connectors are on the front, on the SAFN-SR version they are on the
rear
The capacity of SAFN-M equipment can be so resumed:

 Can handle 5 dedicated card slots irrespective of aggregates and tributaries, i.e. repetitive units;
on the SAFN-M version the connectors are on the rear
Within the 5 card slots, up to 2 line terminal cards can be managed, without any constrain to the use
of terminals of different types (fibre optics or copper) within the same equipment.
 UA 60W-24 converter  up to 2 line terminal cards
 UA 150W-48/60 converter  up to 8 line terminal cards
Performances 2-7
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
The SAFN-M version is particularly suitable for working “along the line” in the linear networks with
many access points characterized by low local traffic (for example, to operate in Drop-Insert over the
pipeline or the railways).
The capacity of the SAFN-SE device can be summarized as follows:

* Can handle 4 dedicated slots for SDH+ETH Cards, 10 slots for FIELD Cards the connectors are
on the front,
2.3.2 Multiplexing and Cross-connection capacity in the Transport part (SDH)

Each device can handle up to 2 155/622 Mb/s streams (STM-1/4 Add-Drop Multiplexer).
In STM-1 mode, each device can handle traffic equivalent to 63 VC12 in each Add-Drop Multiplexer
direction (in the cross-connection function), 42 VC12 (in the plesiochronous transport function by the
use of E1 mapper boards) and 8 VC12 (in the synchronous access function).
In STM-4 mode, each device can handle traffic equivalent to 63x4 VC12 or 4 VC4 in each Add-Drop
Multiplexer direction (in the cross-connection function), 42 VC12 (in the plesiochronous transport
function by the use of E1 mapper boards) and 8 VC12 (in the synchronous access function).
Each VC12 managed as an access function (and hence imported into the matrix in order to activate
the multiplexing and cross-connection functions as PDH stream) effectively occupies an aggregate
stream in the PDH part.
2.3.3 Multiplexing and Cross-connection capacity in the Access part (PDH)

Each equipment can manage a traffic capacity of 8 streams of 2 Mb/s as aggregates (in cross-
connect function) and of 12 streams of 2 Mb/s of aggregates and tributaries (in the cross-connect and
multiplexing functions).
Each device is capable of handling up to 32 X.50 structured time intervals at 64kb/s (between
aggregates and tributaries).
To check the matrix capacity, it is necessary to count twice the band of the single channel (once
tributary side and once aggregate side) in the multiplexing and sub multiplexing functions, that is,
when the application foresees the management of the local traffic.
2.3.4 Connections
Point-Multipoint and Omnibus connections over sub rate data channels:
* All the sub rate data channels managed by the equipment can belong to a Point-Multipoint or
Omnibus structure.
* The limit of users for each Point-Multipoint, with more than one exchange terminal, or Omnibus
structure is 7.
2-8 Performances
720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
SAFN
* The limit of users for each Point-Multipoint structure with only one exchange terminal is 64.
Point-Multipoint and Omnibus connections over voice channels:

* The number of conferences (C) must be  21.
* The number of total users involved in conferences (UT) must be  64.
For a Point-Multipoint connection with “Central” M and “Peripheral” N: C=2, UT= (M+1) + (N+1).
For an Omnibus connection with M users: C=1, UT=M.
2.4 PROTECTIONS
2.4.1 Redundancies
To increase the equipment reliability, the following parts can be duplicated in the SAFN-S mechanics:
* Power supply
* Local controller
* Configuration (non-volatile memory)
* Cross-connecting matrix
* Equipment clock
This redundancy, obtained duplicating the UA and UC PLUS units of the basic part (see chapter
“Architecture”), constitutes, for all purposes, a “hot stand-by“.
Then, the SAFN can continue to work on the stand-by unit, if available (present and not alarmed).
A proper signalling is returned to the management system to individuate the operating condition of the
stand-by part. This operating condition can be deduced by the LEDs present on the units.
2.4.2 Transport (SDH) – MSP protection [Multiplex Section Protection] (1+1)

The aggregate protection is active at the Multiplex Section level so that it protects all the transported
tributaries simultaneously. Both linear and ring protection layouts are available.
In the case of MSP 1+1 type LINEAR protection, communication is limited exclusively to the receiving
node (branch in TX and exchange in Rx).
2.4.3 Transport (SDH) – SNCP protection [Sub Network Connection Protection]

The path protection (channel) is active at the Virtual Container level so that it protects each tributary
individually. The signal is transmitted simultaneously along two paths; one assumes the WORKING
Performances 2-9
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
condition and the other the PROTECTION condition. At the point of reception the signal is detected
using the WORKING path, and in the event of a fault the receiver switches to the PROTECTION path.
Both, unidirectional and bidirectional versions are implemented. The bidirectional SNCP allows to
eliminate the asimmetric delay
2.4.4 LCAS (Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme)
LCAS (Link Capacity Adjustment Scheme), in compliance with ITU-T G.7042, is a procedure to, in-
service, increase or decrease the virtual concatenated group size.
The group of VCs is split in two (equal parts) and the two halves are routed in different ways
around the network - similar to the SNC protection diverse routing.
LCAS can be viewed as a 1:1 protection scheme with ”extra traffic”; under normal conditions there
is full utilization of the capacity.
Only in the situation where one of the routes fails will the capacity for the concatenated payload drop
to half the normal value.
2.4.5 Access (PDH) – Carrier protection (1+1)

To increase the reliability of the connections, SAFN can manage the protection of the (1+1) carrier.
During the plant configuration, it is possible to assign two different interfaces to each aggregate
stream.
SAFN will provide to automatically implement the branching in TX and the switching in RX.
The automatic protection (1+1) is activated as soon as the interface in use detects a reception alarm
that indicates the loss of the service: LOS, LOF, BER or AIS.
Generally, in network topology, the 1+1 protected aggregated streams will follow different routes.

2.4.6 Access (PDH) – Channel protection
2.4.6.1 Protection of the Point to Point connections
To increase the reliability of the connections, SAFN can manage the channel protection.
During the plant configuration, it is possible to assign two different streams to a single interface.
SAFN will provide to execute the branching in transmission and the switching in reception.
The switching in reception consists in assigning, automatically, the interface to the stream which
presents a “pilot criterion”, which signals the connection integrity.
This “pilot criterion” consists of the CAS signalling c bit for speech channels (FXS/FXO/E&M) and on
high rate data channels (Nx64kb/s) or the X.50 frame “S” bit for sub rate data channels (DCE).
The correct management of this functionality requests that the high rate data channels are configured
with the interface criterion (signalling transport enabled).
The “pilot criterion” is self-consistent with the channels itself (i.e. a channel misconnection, due to a
failed link, a communication failure or a missing user port causes it to send the invalid path condition).
Generally, this type of protection is used in the ring topology (the two different streams are those
representing the two directions in the ring).
A channel along the whole ring must be used for the connection between two users.
The described mode is implemented on the DCE (i.e. on synchronous/asynchronous data channels
between 1.2kb/s and 19.2kb/s, with V.28 type electrical interfaces) and Nx64 type ports, and the
SAFN TALE (FXS), EALE (FXO) or JLC (E&M) ports.

2.4.6.2 Protection of the Point to Multi-point connections

A new management mode has been implemented on the Point to Multi-point connections on SAFN
speech and data channels.
This functionality allows configuring a channel protection (i.e. alternative paths between the Exchange
Terminal and the Peripheral ones) also for this connection type.
The equipment automatically reconstructs the "tree" structure beginning from the exchange terminal
as "root" (see Figure 2-7 and Figure 2-8):
A “pilot criterion” is used, that identifies the Validity/Invalidity (V/I) of the direction in question as
direction from/toward the exchange terminal.
This “pilot criterion” is the CAS c signalling bit (c=0: V criterion; c=1: I criterion) for the speech
channels and the X.50 frame S bit (S=0: V criterion; S=1: I criterion) for the data channels.
The protection of Point to Multipoint connections correctly operates on every network type (ring
network or meshed network) that will be reduced to a tree structure.
In the protected Point to Multi-point connections on DCE channel the C105 e C109 interface criterions
cannot be managed.
Their state will be the following:
 The C105 criterion state coming from the involved DTE is always ignored
 The C109 criterion state returned toward the DTE that works as Designated Exchange Terminal is
disabled
 The C109 criterions state returned toward the DTE that work as Peripheral Terminal is enabled, if
the DTE are correctly connected with the centre
The described mode is implemented on both the DCE (i.e. on synchronous/asynchronous data
channels between 1.2kb/s and 19.2kb/s, with V.28 type electrical interfaces) type ports, and the SAFN
TALE (FXS), EALE (FXO) or JLC (E&M) ports.

2.4.7 EOC protection – Mobile Gateway

The EOC is protected in same way of the Point-Multipoint connections (see the paragraph 2.4.6.2).
This solution has the Point-Multipoint network advantages (it doesn’t request the LAN-ETH equipment
and involves minimum throughput delay) and allows managing alternative paths, because the
management centre can change position (mobile Gateway).
The maintenance SW allows configuring 2 functioning modes:
 “Normal EOC”: not protected Point Multipoint connection, with a central and one or more
Peripherals.
 “Protected EOC”: in this mode the Central and the Peripheral in the connection are
automatically assigned.
The maintenance SW allows the selection of every equipment in the network as a Gateway (that is
the assigned Central in the connection)
A time out of 5 min is managed on the Gateway rate absence: after the time out the Gateway role is
lost.
Every equipment can be enabled to work as Gateway when in that node no Central is visible
(sleeping Pilot Criterion from all the EOC directories), because of a spontaneous disconnection or a
line fault.
The management of 3 routing tables by console is possible:
 one for the local equipment management
 one that is enabled when the maintenance SW elects the equipment as Gateway
 one that is enabled when the equipment must work as terminal node.
The following figures show the EOC protection functioning when a fault happens.

2.5 THROUGHPUT DELAY
The propagation delay between the tributary signal (TRB) and the aggregate signal (AGG) depends
on the interface type.
The sum of the propagation delays in the two directions (TRB  AGG and AGG  TRB) is lower than
the one reported in the following table, for the different type of interfaces:

2.6 SYNCHRONISATION
2.6.1 General criteria
SAFN works correctly, without slips and data loss, only within synchronous networks.
 SDH section
SDH synchronism can be configured to operate:
o In FREE mode (Free Running)
o Locked to one of the incoming STM-1 streams
o Locked to a dedicated external signal in this case a G703 port is occupied
In the case of a long chain of ADM, the SYNCH OUT and SYNCH IN signals can be used to
manage an external SASE (Stand Alone Synchronous Equipment) device that is used to
regenerate the synchronization source.
SYNCH IN
SASE SASE
1 SYNCH OUT
2
The clock generated by SASE 1 synchronizes the digital exchange and the SDH multiplexer so that
the output signal is synchronized with the Master Clock, the SASE 2, which is synchronized by a
2.048 MHz signal derived from the STM-N stream, regenerates the clock and synchronizes the other
devices.
2-18 Performances
720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
SAFN
 PDH section
SDH synchronism can be configured to operate:
o In FREE mode (Free Running)
o Locked to one of the 2 Mb/s or N x 64 kb/s streams
o Locked to a 2048 kHz signal supplied to the device as a synchronizing signal (external
synchronization)
o Locked to one of the SDH 155 streams
It is possible to program a priority synchronization level for each source. The device selects the
synchronization source automatically, in accordance with this scale of priority, which can be defined
using the software: if the synchronism source, which SAFN is locked to, misses, the equipment will
change reference and will lock itself to the signal of immediately lower priority.
SAFN will switch again to the original source when the anomaly is ended.
If each type of synchronization source misses (or if the “free-running” mode is programmed), the
equipment will operate independently with its own internal clock, over which an accuracy of  50ppm
is ensured.
In synchronous operating conditions there is no slipping on the 155 Mb/s and 2 Mb/s streams.
Instead, if the digital streams are plesiochronous with the SAFN internal temporization, the slips on
the 2 Mb/s streams will take place without alignment loss.
2.6.2 Functions for network synchronisation
To correctly manage also the ring and meshed network topologies, some information on the
synchronism state must be transmitted among the SAFNs, constituting the network nodes.
 SDH section
The SAFN synchronization state is managed by SSM (Synchronization Status Message)
corresponding to the MSOH (Multiplex Section OverHead) S1 byte
 PDH section
The state of the SAFN synchronism will be communicated to the equipment connected to it by
means of Sa5 bit of the B alignment word of “TS0” time slot on the 2 Mb/s stream.
Each SAFN, in normal operating and synchronization conditions, set the Sa5 bit of the
different aggregated outgoing streams to not alarmed state (“1”). In this way, this is signalled
to all the equipment connected to it. They can take their synchronism signal from one of its 2
Mb/s streams.
Performances 2-19
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
An exception is the 2 Mb/s stream, from which the equipment takes its own synchronism. In
case of synchronization extracted from a network signal, SAFN, on the correspondent
transmitted aggregated stream (backward), set the Sa5 bit to alarmed state (“0”). This is
necessary to avoid the “timing-loop”, which would cause instability over the whole connection.
In case of anomalies on the synchronism signal (for example caused by network alarm or for
indication of Sa5 alarm over the carrier from which the synchronism signal is taken), SAFN will
provide to identify the alternative ways, according to the programmed priorities: if one of these
alternative ways is considered valid, SAFN will derive the new clock signal from this one. If
none of the mentioned sources is valid, SAFN will start the “free-running” modality, enabling its
own internal clock and signalling this state on all the aggregate streams, setting the Sa5 bit to
alarmed state. All the equipment, connected to it, will then avoid getting the synchronization
from these streams and will look for other valid synchronization sources.
When the anomaly is restored on a synchronization signal with a priority higher than the
currently used signal, SAFN will provide to restore this signal as equipment synchronization
source.

* SHDSL interface to cover a stream at  2 Mb/s on one or more copper pair (SHDSL).
A mixed equipping of line terminals (fibre optics /xDSL) is possible inside the same SAFN.
The use of line terminals to transmit voice and data on links in copper of fibre optics doesn’t
require the use of exchange terminals (because the line terminals integrated in the
equipment directly access to the cross-connection matrices).

4.1.2 155Mb/s interface on Optical Fibre (TLFO and STM-1)

The adoption of the MSA (Multi-Source Agreement) compatible SFP (Small Form-factor
Pluggable) solution makes it easy for the optical transceiver to adapt the characteristics of the
optical interface to the installation requirements, in terms of fibre type, power budget, capacity, etc.
8 E1 streams transported by the optical interface can be managed as pure plesiochronous

transport so that they can be transferred the 2 Mb/s G.703 (LIU) interfaces physically present on
the TM-1/ADM-1 and 2TLFO boards.
8 E1 streams transported by the optical interface can be transferred to the PDH part matrix and
managed as normal aggregates of the Access part (i.e. with the data and speech component
multiplexing functions and the cross-connection and sub multiplexing functions)
The 155 Mb/s optical stream on the STM-1 interface enables it to transport 63 VC12 in accordance
with the STM-1 standard (see ITU-T).
It is possible to activate the Drop-Insert function between STM-1 interfaces on the same board,
with complete and non-blocking cross-connection of all the 63 VC12.
4.1.3 155/622Mb/s interface on Optical Fibre (STM-1/STM-4)

The unit performs the functions of SDH Add-Drop-Multiplexers and it is configurable to operate on
streams STM-1 or STM-4, it is able to operate a full and non-blocking exchange of all VC present
on flows STM-N.
The functionalities E1mapper and Ethernet mapper are integrated, using physical interfaces E1
G.703 and FE / GbE installed on the same card.
The E1mapper makes available only 8 streams 2Mb/s, they can be managed as streams unframed
(E1 G.703 physical interface) and they are sent on the main carrier in plesiochronous mode, or as
streams framed/unframed brought by E1 framer to PCM bus system and managed in PDH matrix.
The Ethernet mapper provides E-Line (point to point) EoS service using GFP, LCAS/VCAT.
4.1.4 E1 Mapper
The unit realizes E1 Mapper function and completes the STM-1/STM-4 card functionalitiesmaking
available up to 21 ports E1-G703.
These ports are disposable on front of unit by RJ45 connector.
It is possible to equip up to 2 E1 Mapper units achieving 42 ports.
4.1.5 XBAR Optical Cross-bar/By-pass

The unit realizes an optical Cross-bar/By-pass and can work on a double fiber connection.
The network optical paths are connected to the XBAR unit by 2 LC optical connectors
present on the front of unit.
Again, the XBAR unit is connected to STM-1/STM-4 card (in case of SDH carrier) or to
Interfaces 4-3
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
GbE card (in case of ethernet carrier) by the mean of other 2 LC optical connectors
present on the front of the unit as well.
The XBAR unit is itself connected by optical pig tails to STM-1/STM-4 card in case of carrier SDH
transport and to GbE card in case of carrier ethernet; other 2 LC optical connectors, present on the
front of the unit are used for this intra unit connection.
4.1.6 OADM – Optical Add-Drop Multiplexer

The unit realizes a passive optical Add-Drop by the use of CWDM signals.
It can be adopted in order to permit the coexistance of both: circuit switchted and packet switchted
traffic using the same fiber support.
CWDM signal will manage up to 60 km distance.
4.1.7 4Nx64 kb/s C37.94 IEEE Optical Interface

The unit realizes the transport of N (N from 1 to 12) data channels at 64kb/s, from teleprotection
equipment to multiplex SAFN using multimode optical fibre.
The board is equipped with four optical ports compliant with IEEE C37.94 available on ST type
connectors (BFOC/2.5).
The IEEE C37.94 standard defines the framing used on the optical medium in order to achieve
compatibility with equipment from different teleprotection vendors.
The frame structure is designed to allow the passage of information in packet format from
multiplexer to teleprotection equipment and vice versa. The format was chosen so:
 The frame is a valid International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) recommendation

G.704 pattern from the standpoint of framing and data rate. However, the data structure is
not a standard data format.
 The bit pattern would have approximately equal ones and zeroes (for transmission through
coupled optical circuits).
 The frame would have an easily detected bit pattern for frame synchronization.
 The frame structure is identical in both directions. The frame is the same size and format
regardless of the number of 64 kb/s timeslots being utilized.
In front of unit is present a RJ45 connector (ETH), by means it it’s possible to realize the updating
of firmware using a maintenance file, the same result is obtained by RJ45 Serial Port present on
the board in this case command strings are used (FTP Procedure).
4.1.8 2 Mb/s G.703 interface (L2M-G703)

It manages a 2 Mb/s stream in compliance with ITU-T G.703, both with line impedance of 75  and
line impedance of 120.
It is an exchange terminal: the receiver can support line attenuations  6 dB at 1024 kHz.
The signal handling is in compliance with what specified in ITU-T G.704, G.706 and G.732.

4.2.1 Synchronisation interfaces (SI)
There are 2 available synchronisation interfaces:
o SDH synchronization – a G.703 interface from the 2TLFO, TM-1/ADM-1 unit is used as the
synchronization interface
o PDH synchronization – The SAFN features a synchronization interface that conforms to the
requirements specified in ITU-T G.703, and can be used to synchronize the device to a
2048 kHz signal.
Furthermore, the SAFN transfers the 2048 kHz signal used in the device, and locked to the
current synchronization source, to the SI interface.
4.2.2 Management interfaces

If equipped with US unit, SAFN is provided with two management interfaces, generally one
dedicated to a local operator (LT interface) and one dedicated to a management centre (DCN
interface).
It is possible to access locally to SAFN equipment through ETH 10BT interface (mounted on
Central Unit UC PLUS); through the same port it is possible to connect the equipment to a LAN.
By means of these interfaces, the configuration, diagnostics and software updating operations,
foreseen on this equipment, are possible.
If the EOC (Embedded Operation Channel) service channel is available, these operations are
possible on each SAFN of the network.
For the description of the service channel and of the function of the management system, refer to
“Operation and Maintenance” chapter.
Interfaces 4-9
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
4.2.2.1 Local Operator interface (LT)

At physical level, the LT (Local Terminal) interface looks like an asynchronous data port in
compliance with ITU-T X.20 / V.28 (RS232).
This interface is, generally, dedicated to the local maintenance operator (that is, dedicated to the
connection to a notebook PC).
At data-link level, the SLIP protocol is used. Also the “terminal” modality can be used on this
interface (to configure the routing table of the equipment itself).
4.2.2.2 Management centre interface (DCN)

At physical level, the DCN interface looks like an asynchronous data port in compliance with ITU-T
X.20 / V.28 (RS232).
This interface is, generally, dedicated to the connection to a management centre (that is, dedicated
to the connection to a PC in the fixed position of the network manager).
With the equipping of a dedicated subassembly, it is possible to transform this interface in such a
way it looks like an asynchronous Multipoint data port of multimaster type (RS-485).
This allows managing a series of SAFN equipment (or other equipment with the same interface)
connected to the same wires.
At data-link level, the SLIP protocol is used.

4.2.3 Alarms parallel interface
If equipped with US unit, SAFN is provided with an alarms parallel interface.
The alarm interface has contacts which reports the network and the equipment summary alarms, to
external supervision systems (ground = alarm).
The single interface circuit has the following characteristics:
* ON state (ground) Imax = 50 mA
* OFF state; Vmax = - 76Vdc
SAFN, furthermore, makes available a ground contact, galvanically insulated, to report the alarm of
power supply missing (implement by a drop relay).
4.2.4 Service I/O interface
If equipped with US unit, provided with 8I/O subassembly, SAFN can accept signaling/alarms
(coming from external devices in the form of opening or closing of contacts) and can send
commands (to external devices in form of opening or closing of contacts).
8I/O subassembly can manage up to 8 senders and 8 returners.
The state of the contacts to the external devices (commands) is commanded by the management
system.
The state of the contacts coming from the external devices (signalling) is detected by the
management system. Each single signalling can also be configured as “alarm” (identifying then a
“work condition” and a “stand-by condition”) and then managed in the alarms table.

5 REGENERATORS
5.1 SHDSL REGENRATORS

To correctly work on copper links, whose length exceeds the capacity of the SHDSL Line Terminal,
an SHDSL Regenerator can be provided. These devices can receive and transmit, in bi-directional
way, a 2 Mb/s stream one or two copper pairs, using the SHDSL technique.
The regenerators provide both the possibility of local power supply and the possibility of Remote
power feeding, by means of copper pairs, used for the transmission/reception of the signals
(Remote power feeding).
The Remote power feeding requires equipping a specific part, dedicated to this function, on the
SAFN equipment, which the regenerator is connected to.

6 OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
6.1 ALARMS
Generally, we can see a network as a set of Network Elements (NE), a Network Element as a set
of racks, a rack as a set of units and a unit as a set of ports or interfaces.
The system must be seen as a collection of objects (cards, ports, etc...), each of them can
generate one or more alarms.
SAFN can detect and manage all the alarms reported in the following, acting on them with the
proper classification, masking and filtering.
SAFN, furthermore, collects the alarms to make available these summaries as visual indications
and as ground contacts (alarm parallel interface).
Independently from the summaries and the masking, each single alarm root is made available on
the interface for the local operator (LT), on the interface for the management system (DCN) and on
the possible Ethernet interface for the management (ETH).
6.1.1 Alarms classification
SAFN, in alarms detection and management, uses the classification described below and based on
TMN architecture (standard ITU-T M.3010 and M.3100), which considers the type (category) and
the severity of each alarm.
Alarm type:
* COMMUNICATION (NETWORK alarm): these alarms signal problems related to the

transmission means (ex. Loss of signal, etc. …). Therefore, they are normally caused by
anomalies and noises external to SAFN.
* EQUIPMENT (EQUIPMENT alarms): these alarms are caused by anomalies internal to SAFN
(ex. Power supply problems, generic failure to hardware components, missing of configured
cards, etc...).
* PROCESSING (SOFTWARE alarms): these alarms are related to anomalies in the software
management (ex. download errors, mismatch of database versions, etc...).
* ENVIRONMENT: these alarms are dedicated to the environmental problems (ex. fire detectors,
door opening, etc...) connected with the 8I/O module of Service Unit...
Alarm severity:
* URG (it includes the CRITICAL and MAJOR categories, as defined in M.3100): this alarm
causes a service loss; therefore, an immediate action is required (by the maintenance
operator).
* NURG (it includes the MINOR and WARNING categories): this alarm does not involve the
service; however, a corrective intervention is required to avoid alarms of higher severity.
Operation and Maintenance 6-1

SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
Note: Some COMMUNICATION alarms are classified as IND, instead of URG or NURG,
when they report the indication of an alarm detected on the remote equipment.

6.1.3 Interventions
SAFN, in presence of an alarm, takes the proper measures on the interested stream, both on
cross-connection matrix side (internal to SAFN) and network/user side (external to SAFN).
In particular, the following measures are taken:
* On LOS, LOF and AIS alarm roots, SAFN provides to send all “1” on the interested stream
(cross-connection matrix side) and the RAI signalling (network side, that is to the remote
equipment).

SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
* On LOF-CAS and AIS-CAS alarm roots, SAFN provides to send all “1” on the interested CAS
multiframe (cross-connection matrix side) and the RAI signalling (network side, which is to the
remote equipment).
* On LOF-X50 and AIS-X50 alarm roots, SAFN provides to send all “1” on the interested X50
multiframe (cross-connection matrix side) and the RAI-X50 signalling (network side, that is to
the remote equipment).
The alarm roots, that determine the switch of the synchronization source, are the following:
* LOS, LOF and AIS on the interface used for the synchronization.
* Upko and Fwer on the unit that houses the interface used for the synchronization.
The corrective measures for the user of the low rate data interface are the following:
* The LOF-X.50 and AIS-X.50 alarm roots cause the OFF condition on C109 circuit (with
restitution of ”idle” to the C104 circuit) of the X.20bis/V.28 and X.21bis/V.28 interfaces
interested by this alarm. If this condition remains for 128 ± 16 envelopes, the RFS condition is
sent backward.
* The RFS alarm root causes the OFF condition on C109 circuit (with restitution of ”idle” to the
C104 circuit) and C106 circuit (with transmission of ”idle” on D data bits). If this condition
remains for 3 ± 0.5s, it causes the OFF condition on C107 circuit.
6.1.4 Alarms masking

SAFN, in case of COMMUNICATION alarms, for the calculation of the summarizing alarms (optical
restitutions and remote alarms) and for the alarms filtering, provides to operate the proper
masking, determining the “primary” alarms and the “secondary” alarms.
In fact, the “secondary” alarms must be excluded from the summarizing alarms and the filtered
alarms, because caused by other alarms, already taken in account.
In particular, the following masks are made:

* LOS alarm, on an interface, masks the AIS, LOF, BER and RAI alarms on that interface and
also the possible AIS-CAS, LOF-CAS, RAI-CAS, AIS-X50, LOF-X50, RAI-X50 and RFS
alarms, related to the streams carried by that interface.
* AIS alarm, on an interface, masks the LOF, BER and RAI alarms on that interface and also the
possible AIS-CAS, LOF-CAS, RAI-CAS, AIS-X50, LOF-X50, RAI-X50 and RFS alarms, related
to the streams carried by that interface.
* LOF alarm, on an interface, masks the BER and RAI alarms on that interface and also the
possible AIS-CAS, LOF-CAS, RAI-CAS, AIS-X50, LOF-X50, RAI-X50 and RFS alarms, related
to the streams carried by that interface.
* AIS-CAS alarm, on a CAS multiframe, masks the LOF-CAS and RAI-CAS alarms, related to
that multiframe.
* LOF-CAS alarm, on a CAS multiframe, masks the RAI-CAS alarm, related to that multiframe.

720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
SAFN
* AIS-X50 alarm, on an X50 multiframe, masks the LOF-X50, RAI-X50 and RFS alarms, related
to that multiframe.
* LOF-X50 alarm, on an X50 multiframe, masks the RAI-X50 and RFS alarms, related to that
multiframe.
6.1.5 Events filtering

The SAFN equipment is able to filter special events types defined “unstable” and so it makes
easy and more efficient the events acquisition and management from the management
system.
An unstable event is that event type characterized by a great number of transitions during a
short time.
These events, which repeatedly change state and produce a big data transfer on the
management system, are in reality characterized by a limited informative content.
The events types that can cause an unstable events generation are:
Alarm appearance
Alarm disappearance
The states whose changes are defined by the above – indicated events must be defined
“unstable” when the transitions number is greater than a number “M” in an observation time
“T”.
The said states must be reclassified as “unstable” when in the same observation time “T”
they show a transition number lower than “N”.
The definition of the numbers “M” and “N” and the time “T” depends on the type of event and
the frequency at which it occurs and is limited by the specifications of the alarm detector,
therefore the events should be classified as indicated in the following table:
The definition of the alarms classes is indicated in the following table:
ALARM TYPE CLASS
COMMUNICATION NETWORK (reception) – URG A
COMMUNICATION NETWORK (indicative) – IND A
COMMUNICATION NETWORK (tributary) - URG B
EQUIPMENT LOCAL (hw) B

SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
ALARM TYPE CLASS
PROCESSING LOCAL (fw) A
All the system alarms SYSTEM B
The M, N, and T values must be programmable (for each alarm class) according to the
following ranges:
M = from 5 to 20
N = from 2 to 6
T = from 10s to 60s
The following table shows the default values:
CLASS T(sec) M N
A 10 10 3
B 60 10 3
6.1.6 Alarms parallel interface

6.2 EQUIPMENT DIAGNOSTICS

6.2.1 Internal diagnostics
SAFN executes some internal diagnostic tests to check the correct operation of all the circuits and
to exactly detect the faulted cards.
These diagnostic tests are made without interference with the normal operation of the equipment.
6.2.2 Loopback
SAFN can manage, on different interfaces, the following loopbacks:
* External Loopback: it consists in closing the circuits in input from the (user or network) interface
on the circuits in output towards (user or network) interface.
* Internal Loopback: it consists in closing the streams from the cross-connection matrix (from
inside the equipment) on the streams towards the cross-connection matrix (towards the inside
of the equipment).
The state of the loopbacks can be read both from the local terminal and from the management
center.
The contemporary activation of the External and Internal Loopbacks is not possible, on the
interface that provides the two loopbacks.
The following figure displays the definition of the two loopbacks on the interfaces:

SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
The described loopbacks can be issued from the management centre and using the EOC channel
on each network equipment.
The transport of band criteria is managed, separately from the EOC channel, on the interfaces that
manage the activation criteria for the loopbacks (C140, C141 and C142). This management is of
proprietary type and allows the loopback activation by means of the interface criteria (then also for
users that are different from the network manager) only for Point-Point connections.
6.2.2.1 Loopback on 2 Mb/s and Nx64 kb/s interfaces

On the SHDSL, 2 Mb/s G703 and Nx64 kb/s V11/V35/V36 interfaces it is possible to execute:
* External Loopback. The circuit in input (from network) is closed on that in output (to the
network), towards the outside of SAFN.
* Internal Loopback. The circuit in output (to the network) is closed on that in input (from the
network), towards the inside of SAFN.
6.2.2.2 Loopback on 155 Mb/s interface on fibre optics

On the 155 Mb/s interfaces on fibre optics, it is possible to execute:
* External Loopback. The circuit in input (from the optical carrier) is closed on that in output (to the
optical carrier), towards the outside of SAFN.
* Internal Loopback. The outgoing circuit (towards the optical carrier) is closed on the incoming
circuit (from the optical carrier), towards the inside of SAFN.
6.2.2.3 Loopback on X.21bis/V.28 and X.21bis/V.28 low rate data interfaces

On the low rate tributary interfaces, it is possible to execute:
* External Loopback. The circuit in input (from the user) is closed on that in output (to the user).
* Internal Loopback. The circuit in output (to the user) is closed on that in input (from the user).

* External Loopback. The circuit in input (from network) is closed on that in output (to the
network), towards the outside of SAFN.
* Internal Loopback. The circuit in output (to the network) is closed on that in input (from the
network), towards the inside of SAFN.
The use of loopbacks is referred to the use of the data interface, then, it does not involve, in any
way, the E/M signalling.

6.3 MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND SERVICE CHANNEL

The equipment configuration resides on non-volatile memory.
6.3.1 Management system
Together with the equipment, a management system is available, provided with graphical interface
that makes easy and intuitive its use.
This management system, constituted by a PC with Windows 95/98/NT/XP Operating System,
realizes, as matter of fact, a node manager, by means of which the following functions can be
executed on SAFN equipment:
* Configuration management (modification and reading of configuration).
* Diagnostics configuration (reading of alarms and signalling).
* Management of plant control (actions on the equipment that don’t change the non-volatile
configuration memory).
* Software updating (updating of all the software and gate-array that can be programmed by the
equipment).
To allow the management of SAFN equipment by means of the non-proprietary management

system (able to manage different equipment from different providers), the following considerations
are important:
* Together with the equipment, its own information model (MIB) is available in a syntax
compliance with IETF SMI.
* An Agent SNMP is implemented on SAFN, to ensure that, using the SNMP v.2 application
protocol, by means of proper SET and GET commands on MIB variables, all the operations of
configuration, diagnostics, software updating, necessary for the complete equipment
management, are possible.
The protocols of the TCP/IP suite are used for the equipment management.
In particular, the SNMP v.2 application protocol, in compliance with RFC1213, is used.
The involved interfaces are those indicated as “Management interfaces” in the “Service Interfaces”
paragraph.
In particular, from the LT interface, it is possible to program the network addresses and the routing
table for the equipment itself, when it is configured as terminal.
6.3.2 Service channel

SAFN can manage a service channel (EOC = Embedded Operation Channel) on the streams that
connect the different equipment in a network.
Using this EOC channel, it is possible to execute, on each SAFN that constitutes a network node,
all the operations that the management system allows on the local SAFN (that is, the one directly
connected to the management system).

SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
To centre this target, a service network must be configured, that is a network providing an EOC
path between each node interested by the operations and the node connected to the management
system.
The topology of the service network can provide a network of Point-Multipoint or Point-Point type
(that uses the routing capacity of the equipment).
The EOC channel, which makes it possible to manage all the network nodes, occupies a 64 kb/s
channel.
In case of xDSL carrier, it is possible to set the EOC channel on the “TS0” timeslot (available
because the frame information is transported by means of the xDSL frame).
6.3.2.1 Point-Multipoint service network

This service network does not require the equipping of particular cards (besides the base part and
the necessary aggregate and tributary interfaces).
This network topology exploits the UC PLUS routing capacities only in the node, which the
management system is connected to, while the whole network is managed by means of Point-
Multipoint connection.
It has the advantage of an easy and fast answer: because each network node is directly polled by
the management centre by means of Point-Multipoint connection, the access rate to a network
node does not depend, in significant way, from the location of the node itself in the network.
There are, however, these constrains:
* The management centre must be in a fixed location, chosen during the network configuration.
To move the management centre, the Point-Multipoint connections must be reconfigured,
related to the EOC channel. The polling from more management centres, then, is not allowed
(however, the co-existence of remote management centre and local operator is allowed).
* Spontaneous signalling from the different network nodes to the management centre is not
allowed (then the TRAPs of the different network nodes must be excluded). The centre must
pilot polling on all the nodes to detect the alarms.
* It requires a tree topology between management centre and network nodes (as regards the
EOC channel). In this way, the automatic re-routing on failure for the service channel is not
allowed.

7 STRUCTURAL CHARACTERISTICS
7.1 MECHANICS
The mechanical structure of SAFN equipment is totally metric, in compliance with the ETS 300-
119, IEC 917 and DIN 43356 standards.
SAFN can be installed in standard 19” racks, 300 mm deep.
By means of proper adapters, it can be also installed in standard ETSI N3 racks, with the following
nominal dimensions: 2200 mm height, 600 mm width, and 300 mm depth.
The sub rack is provided with proper power supply connectors, synchronization interface, interface
from the management system, alarm parallel interface, etc. Instead, for the aggregate and tributary
streams, the signals are available on terminal boards with the installation cabling with distribution
or cross-connection panels.
The units that can be equipped in the SAFN sub rack can be, however, replaced without any
intervention on cablings and/or connections.
7.1.1 SAFN-S and SAFN-SE sub rack
The equipment container is a sub rack of 10+8 standard units, with dimensions:
 height 450 mm (10+8 SU)
 width 480 mm
 depth 240 mm

7.2 CLIMATIC-ENVIRONMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS

SAFN is destined to the telecommunication exchanges where the environmental conditions are
those defined for the T3.1 and T3.1E classes of the ETS 300 019-1-3 (operation in rooms with
controlled temperature and with humidity usually not controlled, respectively in normal conditions
and in exceptional conditions). The normative regards the location of the equipment in rooms
where the climatic influence is totally eliminated (enclosed location) thanks to the use of
conditioning systems (heating, cooling, forced ventilation and humidifying).
SAFN satisfies all the functional and performance requirements present in this document, in the
environmental conditions specified by the climatic diagram of T3.1 class (ETS 300 019-1-3). The
equipment, that will operate in the environmental conditions specified by the climatic diagram of
T3.1 class (ETS 300 019-1-3), will offer degraded performances but, at restore of the normal
conditions, they will return to the functionalities and performances required by the specification.

7.3 ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY

SAFN, as regards the EMC requirements, satisfies what provided from the ETSI EN 300 386 and
CEI ENV 50121-4 normative (railway applications).
The SAFN use environment is identified as “Telecommunication Centre” in EN 300 386 normative
and as “Internal location” in ENV 50121-4 normative.
As severity levels, we consider:
* For the SHDSL and Nx64kb/s ports: outdoor ports in EN 300 386 normative and I/O 3 ports in
ENV 50121-4 normative.
* For the CLG, PLAT and PLAC ports: outdoor ports in EN 300 386 normative and I/O 2 ports in
ENV 50121-4 normative.
* For L2M-G703, DF64, DCE-V28, ETH, SI, LT, DCN, alarm parallel and digital inputs/outputs
ports: indoor ports in EN 300 386 normative and I/O 1 ports in ENV 50121-4 normative.
The compatibility is ensured at single sub rack level.
SAFN, as regards the safety measures and the insulation, respects what provided by the CEI EN
60950 normative.
7.4 POWER SUPPLY
SAFN can accept, without any degradation, a secondary power supply coming from a centralized
source (power supply station), which generates a direct voltage with positive pole at ground and
nominal value Vn equal to:
Vn = -48 Vdc (-40.5 to -57 Vdc)
The equipment is provided with a DC/DC (redundant) power supply unit, which provides the
voltages necessary for the operation of the assemblies, starting from the secondary power supply.
In the equipping with the redundant power supply, two different, individually protected, lines can
supply each power supply unit.
Each DC/DC power supply unit is provided with:
* Protection against the overloads and the short circuits in output, automatically revertible;
* Protection against the over-voltage in output, not automatically revertible;
* A switch on the secondary power supply;
* A green LED, switched on during the normal operation.

13 HARDWARE SETTINGS
The great part of the functions and of the parameters can be programmed in software mode.
On the single units, there are still present only a few hardware settings that are described here
below.
The settings pointed out into the figures are the ones executed on the units at delivery from the
factory.
The settings for adjustment and diagnostics, devoted to the factory inside use, are not usually
installed and however the user must not use them.

In case of under-voltage (-10 to -20% of nominal value) on at least one power supply (equipment
side), an open-collector criterion provides the “open” condition towards the Service Unit. The open-
collector is closed to ground when all the voltages return to the nominal value.
In case of over-voltage on at least one power supply (equipment side), the UA is switched off: the
restore is possible only manually.

C.1.1 Environment
As regards [A], the environment is considered the “telecommunication centre”, that is, an
exchange location, therefore protected.
As regards [B], we consider the “internal” environment.
C.1.2 Port types
In SAFN equipment, with reference to [A], we distinguish the following port types:
 ENVELOPE PORT, defined by the equipment physical borders
 OUTDOOR SIGNAL PORT, for the connections to the external environment
 Ports for digital signals: 2TLFO, TM-1/ADM-1, SHDSL, Nx64K
 Ports for analogue signals: CLG, PLAT, PLAC
 INDOOR SIGNAL PORTS, for connections to other equipment located in the same environment
 Ports for digital signals: L2M-G703, DF64, DCE-V28, ETH
 Ports for analogue signals:
 AUXILIARY PORTS
 Synchronism port (SI)
 Alarms parallel port
 Digital inputs/outputs
 SERVICE PORTS (not completely connected) : LT, DCN
 AC POWER SUPPLY PORTS
 Not available
 DC POWER SUPPLY PORTS
 UA power supply input
Appendix C 15-23
SAFN 720070010-A0-GB Ed. 2.2
With reference to [B], we distinguish the following port types:

 ENVELOPE PORT, defined by the equipment physical borders
 I/O PORTS 1
 Ports for digital signals: L2M-G703, DF64, DCE-V28, ETH
 Synchronism port (SI)
 Alarms parallel port
 Digital inputs/outputs
 I/O PORTS 2
 Ports for digital signals:
 I/O PORTS 3
 Ports for digital signals: 2TLFO, TM-1/ADM-1,SHDSL, Nx64K
 Ports for analogue signals:
 AC POWER SUPPLY PORTS
 Not available
 DC POWER SUPPLY PORTS
 UA power supply input
The classification of the “I/O Ports 1” causes some constrains in the installation phase, in particular
during the system cabling. The cables of the “I/O Ports 1” must be laid in protected environment
(ex. buildings, raceways) with physical separation from circuits that can generate high level of
emission and with physical separation from power supply and command cables not shielded (ex.
raceways divided by function).
C.1.3 Acceptance criteria
For the acceptance criteria of the tests, refer to what reported in [A] and [B] normative.

The delays, calculated for some plant configurations, are reported here below as example.
Throughput for the connection between low rate data channels (DCE-DCE)
In Terminal – Terminal configuration, the throughput delay amounts:
4 x T1 + 2 x T2 + T4 (of carrier) + T5
Each D/I or X/C hop adds a delay amount:
T1 + T4 (of carrier) if the X.50 TS is subjected to a direct transit at 64 kb/s
2 x T1 + T2 + T4 (of carrier) if TS of X.50 is subjected to D/I or X/C sub rate
Throughput for the connection between 64kb/s G.703 data channels

2 x T1 + T4 (of carrier) + T9
T1 + T4 (of carrier)
Throughput for the connection between Nx64kb/s V.11 data channels

2 x T1 + T4 (of carrier) + T8
Throughput for the connection between voice channels (CLG-CLG)

2 x T1 + T4 (of carrier) + T6 for voice
4 x T1 + 2 x T3 + T4 (of carrier) + T7 for signalling
T1 + T4 (of carrier) for voice
2 x T1 + T3 + T4 (of carrier) for signalling
Throughput for the connection between 2 Mb/s data channels

2 x T1 + T4 (of carrier) + T4 (of 2 Mb/s channel)

Appendix E: Sub-multiplexing X.50
The Rec. X.50 specifies two divisions with different rates.

The 2 division (80 envelopes) has a 10 ms frame and the following rates:
600 bit/s 1 envelope every 80
The 3 division (20 envelopes) has a 2.5 ms frame and the following rates:
The Rec. X.50 bis specifies 48 Kbps baud-rate sub-multiplexing and engages all the envelopes
within a frame.
Different baud-rates allow a particular specifications dependent on the choice of envelopes.
Each envelope has the following format:
F D D D D D D S
F bit of alignment word

D Data bit
S Status bit
Out of standard bit rate: X.50 div.3 (20 envelopes)
