1 STC FlexiPacket Microwave scenarios
1.1 Overview
This document describes the sequence of steps to be adopted in order to install a site
with Hub+FPMR(P) SVR 2.4 Network Elements.
The supported Hubs are listed in Table 1 and are already supported by the Commis-
sioning Tool CT1.3EP1.
In case of the usage of NON-NSN IDUs, the ODUs must be configured connecting
directly the management PC, either via CT or (in this case better) with the WebLCT just
to avoid to use two different tools. In these scenarios the powering of the ODUs should
be already in place without the P+E support.
With the FPMR(P) SVR 2.4 the System Types in Table 2 are available:

STC Basic network structures
Important Note:
STC network have different topologies and scenarios that can be used for Flexi Packet multi Radio Links :
So please note the following before start the commissioning
1- Mesh Topology or Hub site where IDU Hub and spoke topology includes power injector to supply the MULTIPLE ODU ( refer to the Adding New
link Advanced Mode ) ,also please refere to installation Manual for Power injector and Hub800 connectivity .
2-One to one links Tail or chain topology ( Refer to Basic commissioing Assisted Mode section )
For that please confirm the right topology always read and review first the TD planning doc site by site , reconfirm the link solution with PM, site
supervisors or NSN Care technical team ( Tariq Ali , Azeem Ulla).
>Use this topology at Sites which is directly connected to SDH or Cisco MPLS router
>Services should be created as E-Line service ,Check how to create them at Service creation section.
>Adding new Link will be through CT Advanced Mode,Please Check the Add new link section.
>Maximum ports for POE is Two Per IDU which need external power injector if you need to add more links on the same IDU

XPIC Antenna alignment
RSLpol ->RSL Link RSL with orthogona lpolarizatoi ns used at both sites.
6
XPIC Antenna alignment
RSLxpol -> Link RSL with the same polarizatoi n used at both sites.
5. If XPI is less than 25 dB, adjust the feed polarization by opening the polarization screw and
gently rotating
the feed to minimize the RSLXPOL.
Note that polarization alignment is not always possible since the RSLXPOL may fall below the
sensitivity
threshold of the ODU.
It is also recommended to try to maximize the XPI as much as possible, by aligning the
polarization.
XPIC Commissioning Tests
Individual Link Verification
Before operating in XPIC configuration, each of the links (V and H) should be commissioned
individually in
order to verify its proper operation.
1 Power up only drawer V at both ends and verify its frequency channel and Tx power
configuration.
2 Verify that the RSL is no more than +/-4 dB from the expected level.
3 Run BER stability test on the link for at least 15 minutes to ensure error-free operation.
4 Power up only drawer H at both ends and verify its frequency channel and Tx power
configuration.
5 Verify that the RSL is no more than +/-4 dB from the expected level.
6 Run BER stability test on the link for at least 15 minutes to ensure error-free operation.
XPIC Configuration Verification
1 Using the XPIC cable, connect the two ODUs at each end to the TNC connectors. Make sure
the
cable is no longer than 3 meters.
2 Configure the drawers to work in XPIC mode.
3 Verify that the RSL at all four ODUs is no more than +/-4 dB from the expected level.
4 Verify that no alarms exist (if a 155 Mbps line is connected).
5 Run BER stability test on each of the 155 Mbps links for at least 1 hour to ensure error-free
operation.
Note: In a 2+2 configuration, repeat each step above for each of the four coupled ODU
combinations.
XPIC Recovery Verification
In order to verify XPIC operation, simulate the faults described below.
1 Disconnect the IDU-ODU cable for each of the drawers (one at a time), and verify that the
other
link is operating.
2 Disconnect the XPIC cable and check that the relevant alarms are generated.
3 Power down each of the drawers and verify that the other link is operating.
4 Swap the V and H cables and check that the relevant alarm is generated.
5 Mute and then un-mute one ODU at a time and verify that the other link is operating.
Note: In a 2+2 configuration, repeat each step above for each of the four coupled ODUs
connected to the two
standby IDUs.

4 Test Functions
Select menu Equipment > Operation, Administration and Maintenance.
4.1 Loopbacks
The loopbacks are available only in 1+0 configuration:
LL4: used to test cable connectivity. LL4 can be enabled for a time T (user config-
urable with granularity in seconds), before being automatically disabled by P.
LL1: RF loopback.
LsRL3 (in the local station) and RL3 (in the remote station): these 2 loopbacks can
be used to test the radio link.
t Note - When a loopback is activated on the remote ODU, the STP protocol must be
disabled on the IDU.

Steps
70

71
FPMR Standalone paramters
t First activate the loopback in the Remote Station and then activate the loopback in the
Local Station.
t The time-out set in the Remote Station must be longer than the time-out set in the Local
Station.
This test procedure extends local self-test procedure over the radio link. The procedure
here described assumes the LCT being able to access both local and remote Flexi-
Packet MultiRadio. No User traffic is required to be supported whilst remote test proce-
dure is ongoing. Test packets are generated by the P.
The system will save the actual configuration for the involved elements (switch, modem,
etc) for being restored once the procedure is finished.
The procedure terminates after a configurable time T (default = 10 seconds). Once the
previous system configuration is restored, the result of the loopback test is reported and
a detailed report file (.xml format) is available.
t Note - When a loopback is activated on the remote ODU, the STP protocol must be
disabled on the IDU.
