Product Description The functional version of ISV3 boards is SL91. Application ISV3 boards function as SDH IF boards to transmit SDH radio services, or as Integrated IP microwave IF boards to transmit Integrated IP microwave services (native E1+Ethernet or native STM-1+Ethernet). If transmission capacity needs to be expanded, XPIC can be used. NOTE: Compared with ISU2/ISX2 boards, ISV3 boards support 512QAM or higher-order modulation schemes. Functioning as SDH IF Boards If applied to OptiX RTN 980 NEs building TDM radio networks, ISV3 boards function as large-capacity SDH IF boards to transmit TDM services. Figure 1 Application scenario of ISV3 boards with XPIC disabled (1) NOTE: When working in SDH radio mode, ISV3 boards transmit 1xSTM-1 or 2xSTM-1 SDH radio services. If a TDM radio network needs to transmit a small number of FE/GE services, these services must be encapsulated into TDM services by EMS6/EFP8 boards before transmission. To expand the capacity of an SDH radio hop, use ISV3 boards with XPIC enabled to transmit TDM services, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2 Application scenario of ISV3 boards with XPIC enabled (2) Functioning as Integrated IP microwave IF Boards ISV3 boards also apply to OptiX RTN 980 NEs to transmit native E1 services, native STM-1 services, native Ethernet services, native MPLS/PWE3 services, or a combination of these services over Integrated IP microwave. Figure 3 Application scenario of ISV3 boards with XPIC disabled (1) NOTE: In the preceding figure, if transmitted over Integrated IP microwave, E1 services can be native E1 services or CES/ATM E1 services, Ethernet services can be native Ethernet services or ETH PWE3 services, and STM-1 services must be native STM-1 services. ISV3 boards will transmit native E1 services only when these boards work in native E1+Ethernet mode, and will transmit native STM-1 services only when these boards work in native STM-1+Ethernet mode. Service boards shown in the preceding figure can be Ethernet interface boards, STM-1 interface boards, E1 interface boards, or Smart E1 processing boards. To expand the capacity of an Integrated IP microwave hop, use ISV3 boards with XPIC enabled, as shown in Figure 4. Functions and Features The ISV3 board receives and transmits one channel of IF signals, provide a management channel to the ODU, and supplies -48 V power to the ODU. When the XPIC function is enabled, the ISV3 board also implements XPIC for IF signals by transmitting and receiving XPIC reference signals. Table 1 lists the functions and features that the ISV3 board supports. The ISV3 board implements Ethernet and packet service functions by working with the packet switching unit integrated on the system control, switching, and timing board. Table 1 Functions and features that the ISV3 supports Function and Feature Description Basic functions Receives and transmits one channel of IF signals. Provides a management channel to ODUs. Supplies -48 V power to ODUs. Microwave types Integrated IP microwave SDH microwave NOTE: Integrated IP microwave is compatible with Hybrid microwave and Packet microwave. Running modes IS2 mode: When running in this mode, the ISV3 board supports the modulation schemes QPSK-256QAM, and can interconnect only with ISU2/ISX2 boards. IS3 mode: When running in this mode, the ISV3 board supports the modulation schemes QPSK-2048QAM and the four extended modulation schemes QPSK Strong, 16QAM Strong, and 512QAM Light, and 1024QAM Light. ISV3 boards can interconnect with ISV3 boards or the RTN 905 only when running in the IS3 mode. NOTE: Compared with QPSK/16QAM, QPSK Strong/16QAM Strong has more powerful FEC capabilities, and therefore has better receiver sensitivity. It provides, however, less air interface bandwidth. Compared with 512QAM/1024QAM, 512QAM Light/1024QAM Light has weaker FEC capability, and therefore has worse receiver sensitivity. It provides, however, higher air interface bandwidth. High-order modulation schemes IS3 mode: QPSK Strong/QPSK/16QAM Strong/16QAM/32QAM/64QAM/128QAM/256QAM/512QAM/512QAM Light/1024QAM/1024QAM Light/2048QAM IS2 mode: QPSK/16QAM/32QAM/64QAM/128QAM/256QAM NOTE: When running in IS3 mode, the ISV3 boards supports 2048QAM only when AM is enabled. The highest-order modulation scheme that an IF port supports depends on factors such as the ODU frequency band, XPIC status, and channel spacing. For details, see Technical Specifications.
