Equipment Protection Switching (EPS) is used to provide protection for services
implemented on equipment. EPS protection is supported on Core card, P32E1DS1
card, P2E3DS3 card, and SDHACC card.
Core 1+1 EPS protection supports three different types of protection, control platform
protection, external synchronization interface protection, and traffic/services
protection.
Core 1+1 EPS traffic/services protection is supported when the following two
conditions are satisfied:
P32E1DS1 card, P2E3DS3 card, SDHACC, and P8ETH and EASv2 radio 1+1 EPS
traffic/services protection switching is supported when main (slots 3, 5, and/or 7) and
spare (slots 4, 6, and/or 8 respectively) are correctly equipped and configured.
Note: The PDH 1+1 EPS protection type is not-revertive and can't be changed.
• Both Core cards, main (slot 1) and spare (slot 2), send their signals to all
peripherals
• Each peripheral selects the signal coming from the Active Core card and ignores
the signal from the Standby Core card.
