XMC20. The SUPM1 unit is a 1-slot wide service unit of XMC20. It has 16 PSTN user ports with a telephony bandwidth of 300 Hz to 3.4 kHz. The SUPM1 unit con- verts the analogue voice signal to a 64 kbit/s digital signal (and vice versa).
Functions and Specifications User Manual SUPM1 Functions and Specifications The SUPM1 unit provides the following functions and conforms to the corre- sponding standards and recommendations (conformance to applicable parts of the standards). Feature Licences Part of the XMC20 functionality is subject to feature licences. For more infor- mation on feature licences please refer to [012] Release Note “XMC20”...

Main functions and specifications (continued) Feature Rating or standard Release Hot swapping: You can replace a SUPM1 unit without interfering with any other units. No actions on powering, configuration or commissioning need to be taken if you remove/replace a SUPM1 unit Alarm reporting ITU-T X.733 (1992)
If a wake up signal, e.g. a polarity reversal, is sent out to initiate CLIP, the terminal will draw a short current pulse which can be interpreted by the SUPM1 as an off-hook event. So the detection time for off-hook has to be increased to prevent this false off-hook detection to ≥...
Page 17
In the MCAS mode of operation, the flash detection times are defined by the CAS. Note: If SUPM1 is in thermal overheat state 1 and a flash impulse is > 200 ms, then this flash impulse will interrupt the call since it is detected as a short but valid on-hook state.

Rating or standard Pulsed no battery is supported in the V5CAS mode of opera- tion only. The SUPM1 unit supports two types of pulsed no battery: a-wire and b-wire disconnected (default): An information element (IE) “pulsed no battery” causes a dis- connect of both wires.
Functions and Specifications User Manual SUPM1 Power Consumption Please note: When operating the SUPM1 unit in a passively cooled subrack the loop cur- rent is limited to 23.5 mA Table 25: Power consumption, V = -48 V [mA] Loop length...
Installation User Manual SUPM1 Installation Prerequisites Before installing a SUPM1 unit take care to follow the safety advices as listed in [202] Safety Instructions “Precautions and safety”. Valid combinations of hardware (HW) and embedded software (ESW) ver- sions are given in [012] Release Note “XMC20”.
Slots and Deployment Scenarios for the SUPM1 Unit The SUPM1 unit uses one slot in the XMC20 subrack. In a XMC20, the SUPM1 unit can be operated in any of the following slots: • XMC25: 1 … 10, 12 … 21.
Installation User Manual SUPM1 Compatibility 4.6.1 XMC20 Units SUPM1 is compatible with any other XMC20 service unit with an ESW release of the current XMC20 system release. Please refer to [012] Release Note “XMC20”. 4.6.2 Previous ESW Revisions The SUPM1 unit with ESW release supm1_r2b was first released for the XMC20 system release R4C.
Cable 16 Pairs, DIN 41612 to open End An open ended or unterminated cable with 16 pairs is used to connect the 16 interfaces of the SUPM1 unit with the 2-wire interfaces to the MDF. The MDF end of the cable is open ended.
Page 34
The cable route on the cable tray should follow approximately the projection of the unit slot on the cable tray. In the XMC23 and XMC22, cables connecting to the SUPM1 unit or other units should be guided and attached similarly to the way shown in Figure "Side view of the cable tray and the cable in XMC25"...

User Manual SUPM1 Phone-Exchange Mode of Operation This mode of operation allows you to set the SUPM1 CAS-signalling accord- ing to your needs. Subscribers connected to the SUPM1 can interwork with the exchange side analogue line card TUXA1 or with any third party equipment.
PSTN Maintenance If for maintenance purposes a subscriber has to be removed from the MDF (main distribution frame) or a SUPM1 unit has to be removed from the XMC20 subrack, this should be done without interrupting ongoing calls. This is accomplished, under the control of the signalling (H.248/MEGACO, SIP or V5), by blocking a user port as soon as an ongoing call is terminated.
User Manual SUPM1 Line Impedance Selection The hardware of the SUPM1 unit is prepared to comply with many national requirements concerning the line impedance. The line impedance parame- ters can be configured with the element manager. The line impedance is selected from a list according to the national require- ments.
User Manual SUPM1 Line Feeding The analogue a/b-wires of SUPM1 are fed with a line feed current, the loop current. This is the current a subscriber will draw from the interface during off-hook. Since the interface behaves as a constant current source it is possible to define the value of this constant current (= maximum loop current) in the range from 15.0 mA up to 45 mA.
On unit level, advanced board parameters, the “Metering Pulse after On Hook” can be configured. This timer defines the time a SUPM1 user port may send out any metering pulses after the subscriber went on-hook. Also the voice path remains transparent during this time.
Page 51
An initial ring or a polarity reversal signal is used as an indica- tion that CLIP will follow as in-band tones. In support of CLIP, the SUPM1 unit opens the voice path to the line upon reception of any PSTN CAS signal in the on-hook state.
A line-test is started either manually (on demand line-test) or automatically in a user-defined interval (cyclic line-test). The SUPM1 checks for each subscriber whether he is busy or idle. If a sub- scriber is busy (off-hook or ringing) the line-test for this particular subscriber is postponed.
Page 53
A reasonable time to start the test is between 2am and 4am since then the traffic is low. Please keep in mind that a line-test for an entire SUPM1 will typically take about 3 minutes and up to 8 minutes in the worst case.
− a-wire and b-wire − a-wire and ground − b-wire and ground The test area selection is configured in the SUPM1 unit configuration, on the “Line Test Parameters” tab. The test area selection is valid for cyclic and manual line-tests.
Page 55
The resulting line-test status is displayed as follows: • Requested In this phase the SUPM1 checks the subscriber line for its state (on-hook / off-hook). If a subscriber is on-hook the user port is set to the locked state (V5CAS mode of operation only).
Capacitance is untestable, Noise is untestable. Another reason can be that an alarm from a failed line-test has been cleared by the “Reset Line Test Defects” button in the SUPM1 unit status. • Not tested Indicates that this test was not executed and so no test results are availa- ble.

SUPM1 5.12 Thermal Management The thermal management system on the SUPM1 prevents any damage of the unit caused by overheating. It is achieved with a temperature sensor. The board controller reads the sensor every second and determines the required action.
