ALCATEL 9125 TC Description 2
z The 9125 Compact TC provides:

z Communication between the BSC and the MSC (encoded traffic)
z Data-rate adaptation
z Submultiplexing on the Ater interface.
z A single 9125 TC can support a number of BSCs. The TC recognizes BSC
z racks. It deduces these from the BSC identifier and the Atermux number
z supplied by the operator. Each BSC rack is connected to a group of up to six
z MT120 boards. This grouping is referred to as a ’cluster’.
z The 9125 Compact TC is connected to the other network elements of the
z PLMN via the following interfaces:
z The Atermux interface either directly to the BSC or via the MFS
z The A interface to the MSC
z The X.21 interface to the OMC-R
z In some configurations, the Gb interface between the SGSN and the MFS
z pass through the TC.
z The 9125 Compact TC is normally located at the MSC site.
EVOLIUM
NOTES
The 9125 Compact TC can have three functional units.

z The MT120 is the main functional unit. It provides the multirate
transcoding for up to 120 channels.
z The TC 9125 STM-1 module is in charge of terminating the STM-1
z link, extracting and forwarding the E1 from STM-1, and ensuring O&M
z supervision and software management of the MT120 boards. The TC
9125
z STM-1 boards are in a 1+1 configuration, whereby one carries traffic
and
z the other one is in hot standby.
z The FANU board provides cooling for the MT120 and TC 9125 STM-1
z boards in the rack.
EVOLIUM
NOTES [cont.]
TCIL
z The MT120 uses a simplified LAPD protocol for the TCIL bus. The MT120
z addressing on the TCIL bus is based on the TEI value. This MT120 TEI
value is derived from the physical location of the MT120 and is unique
in the 9125 Compact TC rack.
Unique information received from the TC

z BSC number
z BSC identity
z Atermux number
EVOLIUM
NOTES
Software Download
z All the software for all the MT120 boards of an 9125 Compact TC rack is
z downloaded from a central point.
z The MT120 board has the memory capacity to store three software
versions:
z The first version (V0) is the production version. V0 is stored in a
protected area of the flash EPROM memory.
z The two other versions (V1 and V2) are stored onsite by the preload
z mechanism in a non-protected area of the flash memory. V1 is the
running version and V2 is the previous version.
The MT120 uses the following software versions as follows:
z V0 at first installation or when V1 and V2 are corrupted
z V1 after a correct preload and activation
z V2 when V1 is corrupted.
EVOLIUM
NOTES [cont.]
Remote inventory
contains manufacturing data (e.g. the production date and serial

number of the MT120) and maintenance information. Information about
the rack and fans are stored in the MT120 and are available via the TC
terminal.
EVOLIUM
NOTES
MT120 Configuration Management
For each BSC, the TC is associated with a TC NEM. It configures the

following
z parameters:
z BSC number (to be valued with BSC Node ID for IP preparation)
z BSC-ID
z Atermux ID
z Loudness (DL & UL)
z DSP allocation law (random or linear)
z TRAU law (A-law/µ-law)
z Qmux config.
EVOLIUM
About this Student Guide [cont.]
The following functions are locally performed via the TC terminal:
z Software download and activation

z Configuration of some parameters (e.g. Qmux position)
z Board status and alarms report
z Display and modification of remote inventory and site data
z Restart/reset command.
z All these functions are centralized. When the TC terminal is connected
to one board, local functions can be performed on any board of the
same rack.
EVOLIUM
Self-Assessment of Objectives

z Configuration of some parameters (e.g. loudness)

z Alarm reports (failures, temperature, ...).
z The MT120s with even number are connected to the three fans in the
z back panel
z The MT120s with odd number are connected to the three fans in the
frontpanel FANU
EVOLIUM
Self-Assessment of Objectives [cont.]
z The 9125 Compact TC can be equipped with up to 48 MT120 boards.

Each MT120 offers an Atermux connection to a BSC and up to four A
trunk connections to the MSC. The 9125 Compact TC rack has up to 192
A trunk connections to the MSC.
For the 9130 BSC

z Evolution where each group of six Atermux interfaces must be
connected at the same TC rack. For redundancy purposes, a BSC must
be connected to an 9125 Compact TC via a minimum of two Atermux
connections
z The 9125 Compact TC rack is shared between several BSCs. Any MT120
board in any slot of any subrack can be allocated to any BSC. These BSCs
can belong to several OMC-Rs.
