2 Introduction
This section presents a general introduction to the LEDA1 unit.
The section is closed with a unit view in section "Installation" (page 21).
2.1 General
This document describes the architecture and functions of the LEDA1 unit
and shows, how this unit is commissioned and operated as part of the
FOX61x.
The LEDA1 unit is a 1-slot wide service unit of FOX61x. As a FOX61x PDH
unit it provides PBUS access.
The unit supports the following interfaces:
− 8 analogue voice interfaces with a telephony bandwidth of 300 Hz to
3.4 kHz, configurable to 2-wire or 4-wire access mode,
− 16 E&M signalling interfaces, where each voice channel offers 2 E&M
signalling channels.
The LEDA1 unit is designed for two main applications:
− Inter-exchange connections, supporting E&M interface types I to V.
− Terminal equipment connections, e.g. for party line subscriber sets or
modems for data over voice transmission.
Beside the voice access LEDA1 offers the possibility to establish voice con-
ferences with participants from the LEDA1 unit or any voice circuit available
in FOX61x.

Please note:
The LEDA1 unit is not able to detect a modem control tone (and automati-
cally disable the echo canceller).
The line echo canceller can be enabled or disabled. The echo canceller is
mainly used in the 2-wire interface mode.
The echo canceller requires the returned echo signal to be attenuated by at
least 6 dB to be able to adapt, i.e. the line termination at the subscribers ter-
minal equipment must be close to the 600 Ω line impedance implemented on
LEDA1.
34 FOX61xLEDA1
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
For each subscriber port the relative input level and relative output level of
the analogue signal can be adjusted by configuration:
In the digital network the relative level is at 0 dBr according to ITU-T G.101,
i.e. the relative level configuration corresponds directly to the signal levels at
the analogue port. The following figure shows the relative levels, and in italic
also the absolute levels.

conversion setting
-2 dBr
Analogue PCM
Signal Signal
Digital to Output
analogue Level
conversion setting
-6 dBr -6 dBr 0 dBr
-14 dBm -8 dBm
The values in italic are examples of absolute levels. With the shown configu-
ration you have in upstream direction a gain of 2 dB and in downstream
direction a loss of 6 dB.
Please note:
With the 2-wire interface type the absolute output level should always be at
least 1 dB below the absolute input level in order to eliminate any echo or
instability of the subscriber interface.
Please note:
To avoid reflexions with high impedance telephones connected to a user
port, an external terminating resistor must be applied. The resulting termina-
tion should be close to 600 Ω.
Echo signals due to reflexions cause disturbances in conferences.
Please note:
The theoretical load capacity of a PCM A-law coded signal is +3.14 dBm0.
With a relative level of 0 dBr, the maximum absolute level is therefore 0 dBr
+ 3.14 dBm0 = 3.14 dBm.

The voice handling can be configured with the following control mechanisms:
• Interface type 2-wire or 4-wire:
FOX61xLEDA1 35
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The 2-wire interface type uses only the a2/b2 pins of the voice user port.
The 4-wire interface type uses the a1/b1 pins for the output signal and
the a2/b2 pins for the input signal.
• Back-to-back loop:
The maintenance function ‘back-to-back loop’ loops the voice signal com-
ing from the backplane back to the backplane. The loop is transparent.
• Front-to-front loop:
The maintenance function ‘front-to-front loop’ loops the voice signal com-
ing from the front interface back to the front interface.
The signal is looped via the backplane, i.e. the PBUS. The loop is trans-
parent.
• Input level:
With the 2-wire interface type the relative input level can be configured
from -12.5 dBr to +9.5 dBr in steps of 0.5 dBr.
With the 4-wire interface type the relative input level can be configured
from -16.0 dBr to +9.5 dBr in steps of 0.5 dBr.
• Output level:
With the 2-wire interface type the relative output level can be configured
from -20.0 dBr to -1.0 dBr in steps of 0.5 dBr.
With the 4-wire interface type the relative output level can be configured
from -16.5 dBr to +7.0 dBr in steps of 0.5 dBr.
• Interface line state ‘out of service’:
The maintenance function ‘out of service’ of an interface replaces the
transmit signal going to the PBUS by an ‘all-1’ signal.
In receive direction the receive signal from the PBUS is replaced by a
silence signal, i.e. by an ‘all-0’ signal in the 16-bit linear voice domain.
• Interface line state ‘test signal insertion’:
The maintenance function ‘test signal insertion’ replaces in receive direc-
tion the voice signal by a continuous test signal sequence:

• Protection switching:
In receive direction a working and a protecting channel can be config-
ured. Switching criteria are ‘trail signal fail’ and ‘trail signal degrade’ from
the P12 transport unit. With CAS enabled, CAS AIS is an additional
switching criterion.
36 FOX61xLEDA1
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The squelch function suppresses small voice levels in order to avoid sum-
ming up noise signals. The squelch level can be configured on the unit layer.
The higher the squelch level the higher are also audible disturbances on the
voice signal.
In the multipoint-to-multipoint (MP2MP) application, all participants are han-
dled identically. Each participant has its own sub-conference. The sub-con-
ference of each participant adds the voice signals of all participants except
the own signal.

The voice handling can be configured with the following control mechanisms:
• Input gain:
The input gain of each participant can be configured from -9 dB to 0 dB in
steps of 3 dB.
• Output gain:
The output gain of each participant can be configured from -9 dB to 0 dB
in steps of 3 dB.
• Squelch:
The noise suppression function of each participant can be enabled or dis-
abled. The noise suppression level can be configured on the unit layer
with the squelch level to ‘low’, ‘medium’ or ‘high’.

5.4 Signalling
a/b
M/M’
-U BAT GND
E/E’ a/b
GND GND
The detectors for the M and M’ signal states are implemented as voltage
detectors, not as current detectors. The default mapping of M and M’ signal
states to CAS signalling states is as follows.
M signal connected to ground → CAS a-bit = 0
M signal open or connected to battery voltage → CAS a-bit = 1
M’ signal connected to ground → CAS b-bit = 0
M’ signal open or connected to battery voltage → CAS b-bit = 1
To be able to handle all five E&M interface types (refer to section "E&M sig-
nalling interface types" (page 41) the CAS bit value for the M-detection can
be inverted.
The E and E’ signal outputs are open (highZ) in the inactive state and con-
nected to ground in the active state:
CAS a-bit = 0 → E signal output connected to ground (lowZ)
CAS a-bit = 1 → E signal output open (highZ)
CAS b-bit = 0 → E’ signal output connected to ground (lowZ)
CAS b-bit = 1 → E’ signal output open (highZ)
In case CAS is not used the signalling transport is not available. The E and
E’ signal outputs are kept in the open state.

The CAS handling can be configured with the following control mechanisms:
• M signalling inverted:
M/M’ signal connected to ground → CAS a/b-bit = 1
M/M’ signal open or connected to battery voltage → CAS a/b-bit = 0
M signal not inverted:
M/M’ signal connected to ground → CAS a/b-bit = 0
M/M’ signal open or connected to battery voltage → CAS a/b-bit = 1
• Back-to-back loop:
The maintenance function ‘back-to-back loop’ loops the CAS pattern
coming from the backplane back to the backplane.
Please note:
The signalling loops work only for quasi static signalling patterns (< 1 signal-
ling state change per second).
• Front-to-front loop:
The maintenance function ‘front-to-front loop’ loops the CAS pattern com-
ing from the front interface back to the front interface.
The signal is looped via the backplane, i.e. the PBUS.
FOX61xLEDA1 47
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
• CAS enabled:
In transmit direction the a and the b bit are controlled by M and M’, the c
bit is fixed to ‘0’ and the d bit is fixed to ‘1’.
In receive direction the E and E’ signals are controlled by the a and b bit:
CAS a/b-bit = 0 → E/E’ signal output connected to ground (lowZ)
CAS a/b-bit = 1 → E/E’ signal output open (highZ)
CAS disabled:
In transmit direction the abcd bits are all set to ‘1’.
In receive direction the CAS AIS monitoring is disabled and the E and E’
signal outputs are set to open.
• Interface line state ‘out of service’:
The maintenance function ‘out of service’ of an interface replaces the
abcd bits from and towards the PBUS by the CAS AIS.
Depending of the signalling mode, the E/E’ output signals can be open
(‘transparent’, ‘incoming’) or closed to ground (‘outgoing’).
• Interface line state ‘test signal insertion’:
The maintenance function ‘test signal insertion’ replaces in receive direc-
tion the abcd bits by the idle pattern ‘1101’, i.e. the E and E’ signal out-
puts are set to open.
• Protection switching:
In receive direction a working and a protecting channel can be config-
ured. Switching criteria are ‘trail signal fail’ and ‘trail signal degrade’ from
the P12 transport unit. With CAS enabled, CAS AIS is an additional
switching criterion.
• Signalling mode:
In receive direction the signalling mode defines the behaviour of the E/E’
signal outputs in case of a received CAS AIS. Please refer to section
"E&M interface signalling modes of operation" (page 48).

At the incoming end of a connection, the LEDA1 unit configured to

− When CAS AIS is received the outputs E/E’ are opened (derived from
bits a/b).
− After 12.5 s, the outputs E/E’ are connected to ground for 0.7 s and
afterwards opened again.
− 0.4 s after the CAS AIS is cleared, the outputs E/E’ are unblocked, i.e.
E/E’ are controlled by the a and b signalling bits.

The CAS handling can be configured with the following control mechanisms:
• Participant CAS enabled:
In direction from the PBUS the abcd bits are the signalling bits received
from the PBUS.
In direction to the PBUS the abcd bits coming from the conference are
sent to the PBUS.
Participant CAS disabled:
In direction from the PBUS the CAS AIS monitoring is disabled and the
abcd bits are all set to ‘1’ (CAS AIS).
In direction to the PBUS the abcd bits coming from the conference are
replaced by the CAS AIS.
52 FOX61xLEDA1
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Participant CAS enabling has precedence over the conference CAS ena-
bling.
• Participant line state ‘out of service’:
The maintenance function ‘out of service’ of a participant has the same
effect on the signalling as the CAS disabling of the participant, i.e. the
abcd bits from and towards the PBUS are replaced by the CAS AIS.
• Participant line state ‘test signal insertion’:
The maintenance function ‘test signal insertion’ replaces in direction from
the PBUS the abcd bits by the idle pattern ‘1101’.
• Conference CAS enabled:
In direction to the PBUS the abcd bits resulting from the AND combina-
tion are sent to the PBUS.
Conference CAS disabled:
In direction to the PBUS the abcd bits resulting from the AND combina-
tion are replaced by the idle pattern ‘1101’.
• Protection switching:
In direction from the PBUS a working and a protecting channel can be
configured. Switching criteria are ‘trail signal fail’ and ‘trail signal degrade’
from the P12 transport unit. With participant CAS enabled, CAS AIS is an
additional switching criterion.
Please note:
It a port requires CAS for the control signal transport CAS must be enabled
on the P12 transport signal.
→ The termination mode of the P12 transport signal must be set to
“PCM30” or “PCM30C”.
FOX61xLEDA1 53
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
• Master NE:
− 1 participant ‘to master’, connected to the master terminal.
− 1 participant ‘to slave’, connected to the P12 transport in direction to
the slave NEs.
− any number of ‘local’ participants, connected to the local slave termi-
nals.
Please note:
When only one ‘master’ participant is connected at the ‘master NE’, no con-
ference is required and the master interface can be connected directly
towards the slave NEs.
• Slave NE without DTE:
− no participants.
• Slave NE:
− 1 participant ‘to slave’, connected to the P12 transport in direction to
the slave NE tail end.
− 1 participant ‘to master’, connected to the P12 transport in direction to
the master NE.
− at least 1 participant ‘local’, connected to the local slave terminal.
• Slave NE tail end:
− 1 participant ‘to master’, connected to the P12 transport in direction to
the master NE.
− at least 1 participant ‘local’, connected to the local slave terminal.
54 FOX61xLEDA1
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Please note:
When only one ‘local’ participant is connected at the ‘slave NE tail end’, no
conference is required and the local interface can be connected directly
towards the ‘master NE’.
Conferencing signals are all taken from the PBUS. There is no direct access
of the local port signals to a conference, i.e. all participants of a conference
must be cross connected with the cross connect configuration of FOX61x.
Please note:
It a participant requires CAS for the control signal transport CAS must be
enabled on the P12 transport signal.
→ The termination mode of the P12 transport signal must be set to
“PCM30” or “PCM30C”.
FOX61xLEDA1 55
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
5.6 Protection
LEDA1 supports 1+1 linear trail protection (LTP) and 1+1 inherently moni-
tored subnetwork connection protection (SNCP/I). 1+1 protection is available
for the E+M ports and for the conference participants.
The difference between the two protection scenarios lies in the availability of
CAS. CAS AIS is a failure criterion of the own layer, i.e. of the P0 layer.
• If CAS is available the CAS AIS failure can be detected, which is then the
1+1 linear trail protection. Trail protection protects against server failures
and disconnected matrix connections (via CAS AIS detection).
• If CAS is not available only the server layer defects can be detected,
which is then the 1+1 SNCP/I protection. SNCP/I protects against server
failures.
1+1 protection provides the 1+1 unidirectional protection. The operation type
can be configured to revertive or non-revertive.

protecting Network protecting
PBUS PBUS
P0 P0 P0
56 FOX61xLEDA1
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
P0 protection switching takes place in the LEDA1 cross connect function (P0
cross connect).
Protection switching action is driven by the traffic signal request type:
• Traffic signal requests:
− Signal fail (SF)
The SF state is activated if the analysis of the incoming server signal
on the transport unit reports a signal failure, e.g. loss of signal.
− CAS-AIS
The CAS signalling pattern abcd of the received signal exhibits an
AIS, i.e. abcd = 1111.
− Signal degraded (SD)
The SD state is activated if the analysis of the incoming server signal
on the transport unit reports a degraded signal, e.g. BER 10-6.
It is possible to check the status of the protection switch (working, protecting
circuit) via the CTP status function.
For more information on cross connections and protection switching please
refer to FOX61x TDM Services Manual.
To protect the LEDA1 functions against a failure on the LEDA1 unit, FOX61x
offers the possibility to equip the subrack with a second LEDA1 unit.
EQP protects the conference function. The E&M interfaces can not be pro-
tected.
In case of a failure on the active (working or protecting) unit the user traffic is
rerouted from the failed LEDA1 unit to the stand-by LEDA1 (protecting or
working) unit.
The working and the protecting LEDA1 units can be plugged in any free slot
of the FOX61x subrack.
FOX61xLEDA1 57
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Please note:
The ports on the standby unit are inactive.
Please note:
The protection switching is non revertive, i.e. after the repair of a failed
LEDA1 unit, the currently active LEDA1 unit remains the active unit irrespec-
tive if it is the working or protecting unit.
Please note:
During a protection switching event the user traffic is interrupted for up to
10 s.
Please note:
Performance management data on the standby unit is cleared.
→ Performance management data collection restarts after an equipment
protection switchover event on the active unit.
To enable equipment protection for the LEDA1 unit some prerequisites must
be met:
• The protecting LEDA1 unit must be in the unassigned state. Otherwise
the unit will not be selectable in the EQP configuration in AP: /unit-x, Con-
figuration - EQP: Create EQP Group…, EQP Group Creation, Protecting
Unit.
• The protecting unit must be hardware compatible with the working unit.
Check the hardware compatibility status after the EQP group configura-
tion in the AP: /unit-x, Status - EQP: Units Status, HW Compatible.
• The protecting unit must be software compatible with the working unit.
Check the software compatibility status after the EQP group configuration
in the AP: /unit-x, Status - EQP: Units Status, SW Compatible.
The compatible software must be installed on the LEDA1 unit before the
EQP group creation.
• The unit configuration of an equipment protection group is always done
on the active unit. The configuration on the standby unit is not possible.
The working LEDA1 unit of an EQP group is assigned and configured the
same way as a stand alone LEDA1 unit.
The protecting LEDA1 unit is running with the same ESW as the working unit
and must be in the unassigned state.
The 1+1 equipment protection group is configured on the working unit:
58 FOX61xLEDA1
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The unit status of the working and protecting units shows the actual status of
the units belonging to the equipment protection group. The unit status offers
also the commands for the EQP manipulation:
• Manual switch
The currently standby unit is set as active unit and the currently active
unit is set as standby unit. This requires that the currently standby unit is
in operational state, i.e.
− has no failure,
− is not isolated.
A manual switch is possible if it is indicated with the “Manual Switch-Over
Allowed” parameter.
Note that this command can only be activated on the working unit status
window.
• Forced switch
The currently standby unit is set as active unit, independent of the failure
state of the currently standby unit.
Note that there is a risk that the user traffic will be permanently inter-
rupted if the currently standby unit is in a failure state.
The currently active unit is set as standby unit.
Note that this command can only be activated on the working unit status
window.
• Isolate unit
To be able to perform a maintenance action, e.g. update of the embed-
ded software, on an active unit without activating a protection switch-
over, the working unit can be isolated. This means that the protection
switching state machine is frozen and no protection switch will be done
until the isolation of the unit is removed.
Note that the isolate unit command can only be applied to the working
unit.
• Join unit
Remove the isolation of a previously isolated unit.
Note that the join unit command can only be applied to the working unit.
The table in the EQP status window displays the following items:
• Unit
MO address of the unit belonging to the EQP group.
• EQP unit mode
The working unit is the unit where the protection group has been config-
ured.
The protecting unit is the unit that has been set to the unassigned state
before configuring the protection group.
FOX61xLEDA1 59
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
• Active
Active true means the unit is the active unit, i.e. it is the operational unit.
Active false means the unit is the standby unit, i.e. it is not the operational
unit.
The active state can be changed with the “Manual Switch” and “Forced
Switch” commands.
• Failure
Failure true means the unit is in a failure state.
Failure false means the unit is not in a failure state.
The failure state can not be changed manually.
• Substituted
Substituted true on the working unit means the unit has been substituted
by the protecting unit. A substituted unit is also in the “active false” state.
Substituted false on the working unit means the unit has not been substi-
tuted, i.e. it is the active unit or it has been isolated.
The substituted state of the protecting unit is always false.
• Isolated
Isolated true means the unit has been isolated with the “Isolate Unit”
command.
Isolated false means the unit is not isolated.
The isolation state can be changed with the “Isolate Unit” and “Join Unit”
commands.
The isolated state of the protecting unit is always false.
• HW Compatible
HW compatible true means the working HW unit is compatible with the
protecting HW unit.
HW compatible false means the working HW unit is not compatible with
the protecting HW unit. Equipment protection is not possible.
• SW Compatible
SW compatible true means the working unit embedded software (ESW) is
compatible with the protecting unit ESW.
SW compatible false means the working unit ESW is not compatible with
the protecting unit ESW. Equipment protection is not possible.
• DB Saved
DB saved true means the current configuration of the working unit has
been saved to the FOX61x internal database.
DB saved false means the current configuration of the working unit has
not been saved to the FOX61x internal database. A protection switching
event will load an outdated configuration and traffic will be disturbed.

The loop is transparent, i.e. the forwarded voice signal and E&M signal-
ling towards the PBUS interface are the received signals from the front
port.
• Back-to-back loop:
The back-to-back loop loops the voice signal and the E&M signalling
received from the network interface (P12 transport unit) back to the net-
work interface.
The loop is transparent, i.e. the forwarded voice signal and E&M signal-

FOX61xLEDA1 75
OPERATION
The port and participant line state maintenance functions allow to take an
interface or a conference participant out of service or to insert a test signal
towards the front port or towards the conference.
The line state maintenance function provides the following parameters:
• In service:
This parameter restores the normal operating state of the front port or of
the conference participant.
• Out of service:
Take a front port or a conference participant out of service, i.e. replace
the voice signal by silence and the signalling by an AIS (abcd = 1111).
− Port maintenance:
This parameter can be used to simulate a failed path towards the front
port.
− Participant maintenance:
This parameter can be used to test the protection switching in a
shared protection ring (SPR) application due to a failed LEDA1 unit.
The conference is bypassed in the SPR.
Please note:
The line states of both the “to master” and the “to slave” participants must be
set to “out of service” to check the correct protection switching.
• Test signal insertion:
Replace the outgoing voice signal at the front port or a conference partici-
pants voice signal by a test signal. The signalling is replaced by the idle
pattern (abcd = 1101), i.e. the E and E’ signalling outputs are set to open.
− Port maintenance:
This parameter provides an easy way to check the connection from
the LEDA1 unit to a connected telephone set.
To insert a test signal towards the TDM network, a back-to-back loop
must be applied at the corresponding interface.
− Participant maintenance:
This parameter provides an easy way to check the connection from
the LEDA1 unit to any other conference participant.
In a point-to-multipoint application a test signal inserted at the ‘to mas-
ter’ participant is sent to all ‘local’ and the ‘to slave’ participants. A test
