UNISync 5G-M™
Synchronization Supply Unit Main Shelf

Total Software Management means that for the first time, no dedicated hardware assemblies, jumpers, or switches are used to configure common telecom signal formats in the UNISync 5G-M - inbound or outbound.

In addition, all software management interfaces are remotely accessible via TCP/IP LAN allowing full utilization of Centralized Network Operations Center (CNOC) for monitoring and management.

• Standard compliant TL-1 Command Line Interface
• Auto-provisioning of all modules during installation and initialization
• Upon insertion of a replacement module:
     Automated Hardware and Software compatibility checks
     Automated Software download of current module software
     Auto-provisioning from current provisioning database
• Inventory in software:
     Input reference source
     Output port assignment
     Inventory CLEI and Mfg Serial Number in software to help in field servicing and PCN administration

Modular Redundancy in Hardware

• Dual Power Inputs & Power Supplies
• Up to 5 References Inputs
• Inputs bridge to both IOP Modules
• Dual IOP’s (ST-2 or ST-3E)
• Paired Output Modules for 1 to 1 Protection

Microprocessor Control & Memory Features

• Top level Intel™ microprocessors on COM and both IOP modules
• System Databases stored on the COM module are backed up on BOTH IOP’s
• Output Module on-board microprocessors enable management to each output port

Oscillator Options

• Standard Quartz ST-3E & Rubidium ST-2
• Optional Stratum 2 High Precision Double Oven Quartz Oscillator (DOCXO) - ST- 2 performance at lower cost

System Communications Interfaces

• Local craft interfaces—2 ( 1 front panel)
• TCP / IP Local Area Network interface via RJ-45

Integrated GPS Receiver

The UNISync 5G-M is designed to integrate the GPS receiver. This arrangement optimizes rack bay utilization by eliminating a separately mounted GPS unit. The GPS reference is independent of other input capacity meaning all other inputs are still available for selection or for monitor only operation.

Alarm Reporting Modes

• Module Status and Alarm LED’s
• 6 Contact Closure Relays—Local & Remote
• TL-1 Autonomous Output Messaging
• 16 Discrete Alarm Input Relays

Architecture

• Main shelf module : 2 clocks with maximum 3 inputs each, GPS, 4 output cards (80 1+1 max output ports)
• Fast interface bus for inter-cards communication
• Local and remote management; software download for all active module (IOP modules, COM card, Output Cards)
• Safe Data Base management; duplication of Data base on COM card and on both clock modules

Power supply modules

• Dual load sharing
• Each receives power from dedicated back panel power input
• Automatic redundancy in case of module failure
• Dual -35 to -72VDC

Communication Module (COM card)

• System Communications Controller -BOTH external and internal processes
• Provides system TL-1 Agent
• Manages all system security processes
• Manages all DB storage, access & synchronisation with IOP back up
• Powerful CPU with real time kernel
• 2 RS232: CRAFT 1,2
• 1 ETHERNET RJ45: 4x TELNET + 6x TCP/IP sessions
• EVENT LOG (1000)
• EVENT AO LOG (400)
• SECU LOG (100)
• DBCHG LOG (400)
• Performance measurement : buffering, log and alarm for Clock module PM data

Clock modules (IOP modules)

• Based on Rubidium or quartz oscillator, possibility of mixed configuration
• Dual redundant clock modules
• Clock performance : ITU-T G.812 type 1 & 2 or ANSI T1.101 type ST2 or ST3E
• 5 Universal input modules : E1, 2048 kHz, 1-5-10 MHz, (option 1544 kHz, DS1, 64 kHz CC)
• Maximum 5 input modules per clock module (input impedance 75 and 120 Ohm)
• Each input can be used as reference or measurement input
• SSM: full compliant (ITU-T G.704, Telcordia GR-378), possibility of QL assignment for no SSM capable inputs
• Full software manageable: diagnostic alarms, automates for clock state administration
• Powerful CPU with real time kernel
• Performance Measurement : TIE, MRTIE, TDEV, FFOFF for several time intervals (1s to 10000s)

GPS

• Two plug-in GPS receivers
• Optionally, antenna converter allowing to use 300m of RG59 cable to connect the antenna

Output

• 40 or 20 outputs per module, paired for 1+1 protection
• E1 2MHz-2Mbit/s programmable or T1-CC programmable
