    NTU Orion 2 2 INTRODUCTION The present document describes devices of the FlexDSL Orion 2 NTU family. The document contains the technical description of the devices, installation, configuration, and operation instructions. Appendices containing additional information about the system are also an integral part of the present document.

  • Page 10: Technical Description

    The devices can be powered from local DC sources. Regenerators and NTUs can be fed both locally or remotely from LTUs. Figure 1.1 presents an example of organization of data transmission systems with the help of modems of the FlexDSL Orion 2 family. Other variants of the usage of this equipment are also possible.

  • Page 17: Description Of Flexdsl Orion 2 Interfaces

    The operation modes described below refer to the line interface of the device. The FlexDSL Orion2 devices can have 1, 2 or 4 xDSL interfaces. The interfaces can operate independently of each other as well as can be combined to operate in the multipair mode.

  • Page 18: Master/Slave/Auto

    Master/Slave operation modes. 3.3.2.1.2 Multipair modes FlexDSL Orion2 modems and regenerators support the multipair mode. If 2, 3 or 4 DSL channels are configured to operate in the multipair mode, they function at the same clock frequency and line rate as one DSL channel with doubled, tripled or quadrupled transmission capacity.
  • Page 19 E1 stream and Ethernet packets are transmitted. The use of this scheme involving the FlexDSL Orion2 equipment allows one to increase the transmission range, compared to the use of only one xDSl channel (the adavantage in the transmission range will depend on the cable parameters and noise immunity).

  • Page 20: Reservation

    The <MULTIPAIR> command is used to configure this operation mode. 3.3.2.1.3 Reservation Reservation is provisioned for 2- and 4-channel FlexDSL Orion2 devices. The main task of reservation is to transmit the most important data even in the case of a failure of one or several DSL connections (contingency).

  • Page 23 User Manual NTU Orion 2 At the same time, while for a two-channel system the replacement of channels is trivial in the case of contingency, in tre- and four-channle systems different variants are possible. However, any system with the reservation mode follows a strict logic of channel substitution because by default the system operates under conditions of incomplete data transmission, i.e., unreliable...

    User Manual NTU Orion 2 3.3.2.2.1 Transparent and ITU-T G.704 In the transparent mode, the E1 data will be transmitted over the DSL without any changes. The transparent mode is only possible for transmission rates of no less than 2056 Kbit/s when transmitting one E1 stream in this mode and of no less than 4104 Kbit/s when transmitting both E1 streams in this mode.

  • Page 27: Ais Detection

    The following sources can serve as reference timing signals for a device with the E1 network interface in the xDSL direction: 1. An external generator (for SubRack FlexDSL Orion 2 devices) (EXTERNAL). 2. A signal from the first input E1 stream (E11) (in its presence).

  • Page 28: Ethernet Interface

    The FlexDSL Orion 2 equipment supports two priority queues when sending packets – a high priority queue and a low priority queue.
  • Page 29 A 4-port Ethernet switch is embedded in the printed board of LTUs. In the software of FlexDSL Orion 2 devices of the V9 type, the group of physical ports ETH1, ETH2, ETH3 and ETH4 is combined logically into one LAN port (VLAN tag, TRUNK/ACCESS, QoS, priority queues of Ethernet packets), the configuration being performed simultaneously for physical Ethernet ports.

  • Page 31: An Integrated Switch Of 64-Kbit/S Time Slots

    Ethernet packets of the VLAN format are always transmitted over the xDSL or E1 interfaces in FlexDSL Orion 2 devices. In this case, the data of Assess ports are first transformed into Ethernet packets of the VLAN format according to the specified rules and then are transmitted over the line interface.
