Above are mentioned the most typical deployments of a 7356 REM with DC/DC Convertor.
A special case is the third option, where the original chassis has been extended so it can fit a
extra splitter board, allowing the deployment of 2 splitter boards and two corresponding LT
boards
Remark all examples are based on 48p cards only, the NALT-E/F is not mentioned but supported
starting R3.7

 NRCD-A New equipment REM-FD Control board DC input

ƒThe Remote Expansion Module Flexible Density DC Controller Board has three
functions:
• PSU (Power Supply Unit) DCÆ DC converter
o DC power dual feed (-48 V / -60 V) with two branches (RETA/BATA and RETB/BATB)
• Controller
• External Interfaces

14

PSU
 A DC input voltage enters the unit at the controller board, where the necessary filtering,
fuses, switches and surge protection is implemented. The -48V is distributed to the other
slot positions via the backplane. On the controller board, the -48V input voltage is
converted to a 12VDC bus voltage for powering the fan unit and a 3V3 bus voltage used to
supply the On-Board Point-Of-Load (POL) converter. The power consumption of the SB-REM
is maximally 300 W (peak) and 200 W (average) when powered from the NRCD-A. Power is
applied to both BAT-A and BAT-B inputs, to minimize the voltage drop on the boards. It
uses the one with the highest absolute voltage. It switches automatically to the other
supply branch if a voltage drop or failure of the initial supply branch occurs.
Controller
The controller functions include:
 Interconnections between the controller board and the other slot positions via the
backplane
 Dying gasp functionality

 A link with the host via the Man Machine Interface (MMI) RS-232

 Control signals for active/standby functionality and 8KHz reference clock generation

 Control of the fan unit, for this purpose 12V fan power, PWM signals for fan speed control
and tacho feedback signals are implemented. A fan present and fan ID signal is received
 Scanning of five external alarm inputs and driving of two external alarm outputs

 Local alarm scanning (fan-alarm, DC-input alarms, temperature alarms and SFP alarms

 Handling of over-temperature shutdown.

 NRCA-A New equipment REM-FD Control board AC input

ƒThe Remote Expansion Module Flexible Density AC Controller Board has three
functions:

• PSU (Power Supply Unit) ACÆ DC converter

o AC power single feed connector 220-240 VAC to an -48 VDC voltage

• Controller

• External Interfaces

15

External Interfaces
Next to the power input the controller board has the following external features:
 Alarm I/O interface
 On/Off Switch
 Alarm Cut-Off (ACO) switch
 LEDs for ACO, Fan alarm, Alarm, System, and Power
 Two SFP interfaces
 Ethernet Interface
 Craft interface

 External Interfaces: Optical Interface

ƒ Two optical links provided (GiGE link), one per LT equipped.

• Clear indication of direction provided on the REM.
• Optical indicators provided per direction to indicate that the link is active.
• Connects to one of following Central Office options:
o 7330-XD (ARAM-D) (ECNT-A/ECNT-C), via board GENC-E (any link).
o 7330-FD (NFXS-B) (NANT-A), via board NCNC-D, NCNC-E (any link).

 2 NRNT – REM NT card

17

ISAM Product Overview - Remotes 17 © 2010 Alcatel-Lucent, All Rights Reserved

 What is NRNT?

ƒ NT card for 7356 REM : transforms 7356 REM into a Remote Unit that can
have its own expansion links

ƒ Supports 6 GE SFP interfaces :

• SFP 1 and 2: 1 or 2,5 optical SFP or 1GE electrical SFP
• SFP 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 : 1 GE optical or electrical SFP

ƒ Synchronization:
• Synch-E in: only SFP 1 and 2
• Synch-E out: all SFPs

ƒ Backplane capacity of 2.5 Gbps

18

Only the use of ALU-approved SFPs is allowed. See 7356 ISAM FTTB User, Safety and Installation
document.

Since the NRNT card has a capacity of 2.5Gpbs per LT the High Cap cards (e.g. NVLT-G) can be
used in this deployment scenario.

From a point of view of software, the same ISAM software module is used as for the 7302 and
7330.

32

The 7354 ISAM is a pizza box equipment in which all the items are built-in units (fan unit, Line
Termination (LT), splitter and PSU/control board).
The 7354 ISAM is offered in different variants depending on the PSU unit type and the POTS/ISDN
service options.
The AC version requires 100-240 VAC single-feed input from the mains. The DC version supports -
36 to –72 VDC single-feed or dual-feed input (normal provided by -48 or -60 VDC sources).
When using dual-feed DC input, the unit supports power load sharing, and power backup in
case one of the power sources fails.
