  • Page 4: Introduction

    Introduction The following technical manual describes a safety transfer (switchover) switch as part of the FSA-PLUS family (FSA Switcher — Flexible, Safe, Automatic). The transfer switch can also reverse all standard communication services with a bandwidth of up to 60 MHz. The restrictions of the connected services are to be found within the framework of category three and/or the former category four.

    (Moving Card MOC). Each one of these groups of components switches 20 cop- per pairs over to 40 copper pairs. The FSA-PLUS Switcher can be equipped with a random number of MOCs, up to the maximum number. Retroactive fitting or stripping down by adding or removing MOCs is also possible.
  • Page 7: Applications Of The Fsa-Plus Switcher

    In each switch-over, both FSA-PLUS Switchers are al- ways jointly switched over. The interaction of the two FSA-PLUS Switchers is carried out by means of a per- manent modem connection which enables a distance range of up to 10km. The modem interface required for this is integrated in the FSA-PLUS Switcher.
  • Page 8 In the case of automatic reversing, the line quality of a copper pair is applied as reverse switching criterion and this is monitored by means of the external FSA-PLUS Switcher. At the same time, the line is tested for disturbance and a minimum insulating resistance of wire to wire and wire to earth. After falling short of specific limiting values, it is automatically switched from the main path (SIDE1) over to the reserve path (SIDE2) and a special alarm is set to on.
  • Page 9 Technical Manual  Manual Reverse Switching Manual reverse switching can only be carried out via the central FSA-PLUS Switcher. The criterion for reverse switching is determined (according to the configuration) either by a local switch on the Switcher or by a remote switch.
  • Page 10: Application In Single Mode

    Technical Manual 4.2 Application in Single Mode In single mode, an FSA-PLUS Switcher forms a reverse switching system which switchover, by means of variable reverse switching criteria, a device A from a de- vice B over to a device C (e.g. subscriber‘s extension stations, etc.).
  • Page 11: Monitoring And Alarms

    FSA-PLUS Switcher is different, since only the central FSA-PLUS Switcher receives all the information from the complete system (both FSA-PLUS Switch- ers). The signalling in the case of the external FSA-PLUS Switcher is limited to its own status and its own alarms.

  • Page 13: Interfaces

    Interfaces 6.1 Power Supply The FSA-PLUS Switcher is available in an AC version (Alternating Current) and a DC version (Direct Current). The power supply of the AC version is designed in such a way that 115 V / 60 Hz as well as 230 V / 50 Hz can be used for the primary supply.
  • Page 14: Modem Interface

    Technical Manual 6.2 Modem Interface The accommodation of two FSA-PLUS Switchers is carried out by means of a permanent modem connection. This connection is a necessary condition for the operation of the device. A breakdown in the modem connection causes a specifi- cally targeted alarm to be set off.
  • Page 15: Interface For Line Measurements (Double Mode Only) Or For An External Switch (Double Mode Or Single Mode)

    Two interfaces are required in order to perform this measurement which is carried out by an FSA-PLUS Switcher continuously. One interface forms the source with the appropriate evaluation and the other interface forms a necessary terminal (see picture2, Chapter 4.1).

    In double mode, after a connection of the central FSA-PLUS Switcher, a compari- son is carried out of the number of recognised moving cards of the two FSA-PLUS Switcher. In the event of unequal numbers of recognised moving cards, this gives rise to an alarm and signalling (flashing of LED 3,4,8 or 9).
  • Page 18  The monitoring of the cable in the main path must be carried out by means of the external FSA-PLUS Switcher. In the event of a failure of the lines in the re- serve path (SIDE2), it is then possible to determine whether the failure is caused by the modem connection or the lines.

    (see Chapter 7.5.1) In double mode, following the connection of the central FSA-PLUS Switcher, a comparison is made of the number of recognised moving cards of both FSA-PLUS Switcher. In the event of unequal numbers of recognised moving cards, an alarm is activated.

    External switch is the reverse switching criterion DIP-switch  Any modification of the configuration may only be carried out when the FSA-PLUS Switcher is turned off. AC version: Switch off the plug-in power unit DC version: Turn off distribution voltage or pull out 16-pin PCB connecting block on the control card (FCU).
  • Page 24: Signalling

    The test routine can be repeated at random without this leading to any variation in the switching status of the FSA-PLUS Switcher. There the FSA-PLUS Switcher is turned off and then turned on again after a wait- ing time of approx. 5 seconds. The signalling occurs once again as described above.
