Figure 1: Location of 9125 TC within PLMN A single 9125 TC can support a number of BSCs. The TC recognizes BSC racks. It deduces these from the BSC identifier and the Atermux number supplied by the operator. Each BSC rack is connected to a group of up to six MT120 boards. This grouping is referred to as a cluster. The 9125 TC is connected to the other network elements of the PLMN via the following interfaces: The Atermux interface either directly to the BSC or via the MFS The A interface to the MSC The X.21 interface to the OMC-R In some configurations, the Gb interface between the SGSN and the MFS pass through the TC. The 9125 TC is normally located at the MSC site.

1.2 Functional Architecture

1.2.1 Basic Architecture
The 9125 TC can have three functional units. The MT120 is the main functional unit. It provides the multirate transcoding for up to 120 channels. This board has interfaces for one Atermux trunk towards the BSC and up to four A trunks towards the MSC. There are MT120 WB or MT120 NB, depending on the Adaptive Multi-Rate Wideband (AMR WB) and Adaptive Multi-Rate Narrowband (AMR NB) codec types. The 9125 TC STM-1 module is in charge of terminating the STM-1 link, extracting and forwarding the E1 from STM-1, and ensuring O&M supervision and software management of the MT120 boards. The 9125 TC STM-1 boards are in a 1+1 configuration whereby, one carries traffic and the other one is in hot standby. On the hot standby board, all interfaces are permanently supervised. STM-1 is a 155 Mbit/s interface, included in the SDH family (STM-4, STM-16, STM-64). E1 is transported in VC12 tributary. STM-1 contains 63 VC12. One TC supports a maximum of four STM-1. The FANU board provides cooling for the MT120 and 9125 TC STM-1 boards in the rack.

1.2.2 Interfaces
1.2.2.1 External Interfaces
Atermux Interface The 9125 TC is connected to the BSC or MFS via the Atermux interface. In the case of a connection to the MFS, the Atermux interface may also convey the Gb interface. If packet channels are present in the Atermux interface, they go transparently through the TC. This is Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), whereby: The channels either: Are added/dropped in the MT120 (only true for 64 kbit/s channels), or Go transparently through the MT120 (e.g. SS7, OMC-R, X.25 or Gb interface). The 8 and 16 kbit/s HR, FR, EFR and AMR traffic channels conveyed on the 16 kbit/s bearer channels are processed in the MT120 Submultiplexing 4:1 but only TS0 transparency configurations is supported. A Interface The 9125 TC is connected to the MSC via the A interface. This is TDM. O&M Interface The BSC performs the O&M access via the Qmux bus, compatible with the G2 TC. This access is used for configuration and supervision of the TC board. There is a 1+1 Qmux connection, operating in active/standby mode, per cluster (see Figure 5) in the 9125 TC rack. These two Qmux connections are carried on two 16 kbit/s channels conveyed by the first two Atermux links. This is an interface to the IP network.

X.21 Interface This interface is managed by the MT120 board and supports X.25 channels used to interconnect the BSC with the OMC-R. One 64 kbits/s channel is extracted from any Atermux interface and is transparently routed to the X.21 interface. Interface to the IP network Gigabit Ethernet 1000 Base-T is used for the IP interface. The 9125 TC STM-1 includes a SNMP agent which is managed by the OMC-R. TDM interfaces For the TDM interface, the choice is: E1 physical lines The E1 physical interface is located on the MT120 boards. E1 via STM-1/VC12 The SDH interface is located on a plug-onboard. To minimize the number of STM-1 links to be connected, each E1 link can be mapped to any VC12 tributary on any STM-1 link (arbitrary mapping).
1.2.2.2 Internal Interfaces

TC Internal Link (TCIL) The TCIL is a duplicated bus that connects all the MT120 boards of the rack. The TCIL bus is involved in the following functions: Forwarding the configuration information from the BSC to the other MT120 boards Downloading the software from the TC NEM Sending alarm information to the BSC via the MT120 board with a Qmux connection Communicating temperature measurements, power alarms and BSC related information. High Speed Link (HSI) The transcoder boards are connected to 9125 TC STM-1 boards via high-speed links (HSI). Each TC board is connected to each 9125 TC STM-1 board (dual star). The high-speed links carry TDM, TRAU, O&M and signaling traffic. O&M Link A link between the 9125 TC STM-1 boards carries O&M, protection for external interfaces. This link is realized using standard ATCA interfaces, i.e. Ethernet, update port. Clock Bus The clock is not used. External IP Links External IP links are connected to the 9125 TC STM-1 boards.

1.2.4 Module Addressing

1.2.4.1 Qmux Addressing
To reduce the impact on the BSC software, the MT120s in each cluster respond to the addresses of the equivalent ASMCs and ATBXs which would be equipped in a G2 TC. For the 9125 TC STM-1, the Qmux is forwarded by the 9125 TC STM-1 board to MT120 board. The Qmux is hardcoded on TS14 Nibble 0.

1.2.4.2 TCIL Addressing

The MT120 uses a simplified LAPD protocol for the TCIL bus. The MT120 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 TC rack. The TEI value for broadcast messages in the TCIL bus is 255. Each MT120 stores the information of all the other MT120s in a correspondence table. This is done as follows. Periodically and after each MT120 power on, the MT120 sends a broadcast message on the TCIL bus. This message contains the following information: MT120 TEI Measured temperature Fan alarms Power supply alarms Unique information received from the TC NEM: BSC number BSC identity Atermux number. The other MT120s store this information in their correspondence table. This table is used for some O&M functions (e.g. fan supervision).

1.2.5 TC Cluster
A TC cluster is a group of up to six MT120 boards allocated to one BSC rack. These boards are only masters in respect to the Qmux interface. They have no other dedicated role in the rack. The other MT120 boards of the cluster are attached to the masters during installation phase. The members of a cluster can be any MT120 board in the rack. This simplifies extension and reduction.

Figure 5: TC Cluster Seen from the BSC, a cluster is a logical G2 TC rack, a group of six Atermux interfaces. The BSC supervises the related cluster and communicates with the master. The master forwards the messages received from the BSC to the other MT120 boards in the cluster via the TCIL bus. The two MT120 boards configured as the masters need to know the relation between the Qmux address of the MT120s in the cluster and the TEI. Since any MT120 can be connected to the TC NEM, each MT120 maintains a table containing this relation for all the installed MT120 boards. This table is also called the correspondence table.

1.2.6 TC NEM
The TC NEM is a Personal Computer loaded with the TC NEM software and connected to the 9125 TC via an: RS232 link, when 9125 TC is equipped with MT120 Ethernet link, when 9125 TC is equipped with an MT120WB/NB and STM-1 subrack. In the case of a 9125 TC equipped with a STM-1 subrack, the TC NEM can be connected remotely or locally through Ethernet link.
1.3 Telecom Functions

This section describes the telecom functions of the 9125 TC, which comprise speech and data service functions.

1.4.1 Software Management

1.4.1.1 9125 TC STM-1 Software Management
The 9125 TC STM-1 software is not replaced through the BSS software replacement. It is downloaded and managed from the TC NEM. The states handled by the TC NEM are not part of the BSS software replacement. They are: Idle = No software replacement ongoing Downloading = Download ongoing Downloaded = Download completed Activating = Activate ongoing Activated = Activate completed Rejecting = Reject ongoing Aborting = Abort ongoing. The set of scenarios to be provided for the 9125 TC STM-1 software replacement are not part of the BSS software replacement. All the actions are initialised from the TC NEM: Software download Software activate Software accept Software reject Software abort.

1.4.1.2 MT120 Software Management

For the MT120 boards, the software management is done by the TC NEM. The O&M actions of this service supported by the TC NEM and the TC subsystem for the download management of the MT120 software for the QMUX MT120 are as follows: Software download Software abort Software activate Software accept/reject. The actions requested by the operator are performed through the TC NEM TC rack by TC rack. However, at the operator interface, a global action on all TC racks or on selected TC racks is provided and the TC NEM launches the actions in parallel. The result to the operator is given TC rack by TC rack. The 9125 TC STM-1 can hold, at any one moment, four different MT120 software versions at any one time.
1.4.1.3 Central Software Download

All the software for all the MT120 boards of an 9125 TC rack is downloaded from a central point. The MT120 board has the memory capacity to store three software versions: The first version (V0) is the production version. V0 is stored in a protected area of the flash EPROM memory. The two other versions (V1 and V2) are stored onsite by the preload 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: V0 at first installation or when V1 and V2 are corrupted V1 after a correct preload and activation V2 when V1 is corrupted.
1.4.2 Configuration Management

1.4.2.1 Clock Management
Depending on the clock selection: Without STM-1, any MT120 has a priority. The clock is taken from the highest priority MT120. With STM-1, the clock is taken from STM-1 or from physical E1. STM-1 has priority. The 9125 TC STM-1 selects and distributes the clock.
1.4.2.2 TC Rack Information Management

In the case of a 9125 TC STM-1, the impedance has a rack granularity compared to 9125 TC.

1.4.2.3 Remote Inventory

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 NEM. The MT120 remote inventory is stored in a dedicated EPROM, whereas the rack and fan remote inventory is stored in the flash memory of each MT120.
1.4.2.4 MT120 Configuration Management

For each TC rack, the operator configures the E1 impedance parameter throughout the TC NEM. For each BSC, the TC is associated with a TC NEM. It configures the following parameters: BSC number (to be valued with BSC Node ID for IP preparation) BSC-ID Atermux ID Loudness (DL & UL) DSP allocation law (random or linear) TRAU law (A-law/-law) Qmux config. For all this data, the reference is the TC. The TC NEM gives values for these parameters to the 9125 TC STM-1 through SNMP management. This data is stocked in the internal 9125 TC STM-1 database. After the SNMP SET, the 9125 TC STM-1 passes this data to MT120 board(s) via the HSI and where it is updated in the internal database. The values from the internal database are provided during the next interrogation of these parameters from the TC NEM or the OMC (the SNMP managers).
1.4.2.5 9125 TC STM-1 Configuration Management

For each TC rack, the operator configures the following parameters throughout the TC NEM: Rack number Active 9125 TC STM-1 IP address and ports 9125 TC STM-1 1 IP address and ports 9125 TC STM-1 2 IP address and ports TC remote inventory including 9125 TC STM-1. For this data, the TC is the reference. The TC NEM gives values for these parameters to the 9125 TC STM-1 through the SNMP management. This data is stocked in the internal 9125 TC STM-1 database.

1.4.2.6 STM-1 Configuration Management

The STM-1 configuration (logical E1 to VC12 mapping) is only performed from the TC NEM. The configuration granularity is the MT120. On the MT120, the flexibility on the Ater interface and A interface is supported; that is, the A/Ater interface independence is supported. The operator prepares the configuration in a first operation, downloads it in the TC in a second step and applies this configuration later, in a third operation. During the preparation phase, the TC NEM operator uses a working STM-1 configuration file. The TC NEM operator can also check the validity of the working file. In addition, the operator can get the impact of the working file configuration in case it is applied through a Compare command that produces a configuration impact file. This file contains all E1 links with a change: If the E1 link is changed from physical to SDH: the SDH tributary If the E1 link is changed from SDH to physical If the SDH tributary changes. SNMP messages are used between the TC NEM and 9125 TC STM-1 board. The current STM-1 configuration and the candidate STM-1 configuration are stored in the TC MIB, accessible through the SNMP. The STM-1 configuration can be defined as: current candidate working. The 9125 TC STM-1 only knows candidate and current STM-1 configurations. The TC NEM displays the candidate and the current configurations, but also offers/manages working files for the configuration update (these working files are local to the TC NEM). A working STM-1 configuration file becomes the candidate configuration as soon as it is successfully downloaded on the 9125 TC STM-1 (on the Set Configuration operator trigger). The candidate STM-1 configuration becomes the current STM-1 configuration as soon as it is successfully applied in the 9125 TC STM-1.
1.4.3 Fault Management

1.4.3.1 Alarm Octet Management
The alarm octet is a specific timeslot of the Atermux interface used to report transmission alarms. This feature is implemented in the G2 TC but not in the 9125 TC. This results in a different behaviour of the MT120 compared to the G2 TC, in the case of an A interface failure: In the G2 TC, one alarm is reported (on ATR SBL) and the corresponding channels are blocked in the BSC In the MT120, one alarm is reported (on ATR SBL) and the corresponding channels are blocked in the MSC.

1.4.3.2 Fault Supervision

MT120 Failure MT120 power on During the power on, the configuration data and the alarms are not lost by the MT120. It performs the same actions as during the reset command. MT120 out of order state In the out of order state, the MT120 supervision and alarm sending does not stop. If the failure leading to the out of order state disappears, the MT120 becomes operational. MT120 temperature handling The MT120 temperature is a permanent measurement. If the temperature goes below the corresponding threshold-hystheresis and the MT120_autoreset_count < max value, the MT120 returns the previous state, and depending on the case, sends the alarms OFF to 9125 TC STM-1 and the corresponding channels become available for traffic. In order to avoid the ping-pong effect for temperature handling, channel blocking / unblocking is limited in time. MT120_autorestart_count The MT120_autorestart_count is a counter used by the MT120 to trigger an MT120 autoreset instead of an MT120 autorestart when this counter value reaches its maximum value. The counter is incremented after each MT120 autorestart (successful autorestart or not), and is used only during a window. When the autorestart window timer expires, the MT120 re-initialises the MT120_autorestart_count to 0 and restarts another window. MT120_autoreset_count The MT120_autoreset_count is a counter used by the MT120 to stop the MT120 indefinitely, performing an autoreset which blocks the MT120 supervision (i.e. no alarms can be sent). The counter is incremented after each MT120 autoreset (successful autorestart or not), and is used only during a window. When the autoreset window timer expires, the MT120 re-initialises the MT120_autoreset_count to 0 and restarts another window.

9125 TC STM-1 Board Failure 9125 TC STM-1 hardware failures The 9125 TC STM-1 board contains the following hardware equipment: SS7 processors STM-1 daughter board TCIP daughter board Ethernet switch. If there are problems related to any of the hardware equipment, an alarm is raised and reported through the SNMP management. The alarm contains additional information about the hardware device that failed. 9125 TC STM-1 software failures 9125 TC STM-1 software is organized in software building blocks. Each block has specific tasks to handle. Depending on the usage of the module and the gravity of the problem encountered, this software failure can trigger a 9125 TC STM-1 reset. STM-1 failures The 9125 TC STM-1 board detects the STM-1 VC12 failures when physical E1 failures are detected by the MT120. Mate 9125 TC STM-1 reachability failure The communication with the other 9125 TC STM-1 is impossible. This could be due to internal cabling problems or to the fact that the other 9125 TC STM-1 board is dead or unplugged. Router connection failure The 9125 TC STM-1 is connected to an external router that enables it to communicate with the external IP network. If the connection with this router is lost, then the board can no longer fulfill its functionalities as a IP network element and must trigger an autoreset. TCIF_autoreset_count _HW and TCIF_autoreset_count _SW The 9125 TC STM-1 autoreset counters are used by 9125 TC STM-1 in order to stop the 9125 TC STM-1 indefinitely performing an autoreset which blocks the TC supervision (i.e. no alarms can be sent). MT120 reachability The communication between the 9125 TC STM-1 and the MT120 is done through the HSI interface. Each 9125 TC STM-1 is connected to each MT120 board. There are two potential levels of loss of communication: Loss of communication with one 9125 TC STM-1 Loss of communication with both 9125 TC STM-1. For the loss of communication with one 9125 TC STM-1, there are two possible cases: Communication was lost to ACTIVE 9125 TC STM-1 Communication was lost to STANDBY 9125 TC STM-1.

Environmental Failures Power supply supervision The power supply for the 9125 TC is redundant. When the power supply fails, all MT120 in 9125 TC will detect it. In order to reduce the number of alarms sent to 9125 TC STM-1, only the active or inactive Qmux master MT120 with lowest Atermux number for each BSC number reports the power supply alarm to 9125 TC STM-1. Fan supervision In the 9125 TC, there are six fans per sub-rack and for each fan, only the MT120 of the same sub-rack as the fan can access its alarms via the following rule: Each MT120 with even number (2, 4,..., 12) has access to the three fans in the back panel Each MT120 with odd number (1, 3,...,11) has access to the three fans in the front panel. When the MT120 detects a fan alarm, it sends it with a TC_FAUKT_INDICATION to the 9125 TC STM-1. In order to reduce the number of fans alarms sent to the 9125 TC STM-1, only the active or inactive Qmux master MT120 with the lowest Atermux number for each BSC number reports the fan alarms of the complete rack to 9125 TC STM-1. Fan speed control In order to reduce the noise generated by fans at high speed, the fan speed is controlled in the 9125 TC. Each MT120 controls the fan of the same sub-rack with the following rule: Each MT120 with even number (2, 4,..., 12) controls the three fans in the back panel Each MT120 with odd number (1, 3,...,11) controls the three fans in the front panel. All fans in the rack must have the same speed. Each MT120 reports its temperature to the 9125 TC STM-1. 9125 TC STM-1 calculates the highest temperature from these messages and calculates the proper fan speed, which is then broadcast to all MT120 boards via HSI. If this broadcast message is not received by a MT120 (e.g. HSI failure), this MT120 uses the maximum speed as the reference for the FAN speed control.

1.4.3.3 Fault Recovery

MT120 Recovery MT120 autorestart This autorestart must not impact the telecom of the MT120 (no interruption of traffic). During the autorestart, the configuration data and the alarms are not lost by MT120. MT120 autoreset This autoreset must not impact the telecom of the MT120 (no interruption of traffic). During the autoreset, the configuration data and the alarms are not lost by the MT120. 9125 TC STM-1 Fault Recovery 9125 TC STM-1 autoreset The 9125 TC STM-1 autoreset can be triggered from software or hardware internal malfunctions. It is triggered from the 9125 TC STM-1 OBC. During the 9125 TC STM-1 autoreset, the configuration data and the alarms are not lost, because this data is kept on both 9125 TC STM-1 boards, as they are in hot standby. 9125 TC STM-1 takeover and ACTIVE/STANDBY election principles: The following criteria for the 9125 TC STM-1 takeover apply: Failure (hardware/software) on the ACTIVE 9125 TC STM-1 board MT120 reachability criteria: the 9125 TC STM-1 with the highest number of MT210 connectivity available is the ACTIVE one Software replacement: during the software replacement, the two boards will change their status at least once Ping-pong avoidance: as it is necessary to avoid as much as possible performing multiple takeovers, several counters are defined to limit the number of takeovers. If the number of MT120 reachable is higher on one board but this board has a larger number of failures, the takeover is inhibited.
1.4.3.4 Fault Reporting

The following rules apply for Fault Reporting: MT120 fault reporting The MT120 sends its alarms (and fan alarms for the MT120 with lowest Atermux number). The power supply for 9125 TC is redundant. When the power supply fails, all MT120 will detect it. Concerning the report of power supply alarm to TC NEM, each MT120 reports the detected power supply alarm. The power supply alarm must then be filtered in the 9125 TC STM-1. 9125 TC STM-1 fault reporting 9125 TC STM-1 alarm reporting is done through the SNMP management. The active alarm table contains a list of all the active alarms that are known by the 9125 TC STM-1. This active alarm table is mirrored on both 9125 TC STM-1.

The OBC is based on the MPC8560 processor (also called the Host processor) and its associated memories. It provides the control part of the JBTCIF and also performs the HDLC terminations of the O&M communication with the MT120 boards.
2.2.1.2 Signalling Controllers

These parts are identical and also based on the MPC8560 processor. They have to terminate the MTP2 layer of the SS7 stack on the A interface. According to the software architecture retained for the SS7 to Sigtran conversion, the signaling messages are relayed to the Host processor through the PCI bus or treated locally.
2.2.1.3 TDM Switch and HSI Link Termination

In order to manage the MT120 transcoder boards by pooling (TDM pool or IP pool), there is a centralized TDM cross connect on the TCIF. It is implemented in the JGHSI FPGA and provides a 16kbps synchronous switch on the Atermux side and a 64kbps synchronous switch on the A side. The TDM switch is also connected to the HDLC controllers embedded in the Host processor for terminating the O&M communication channels and to the two Signaling Controllers for the MTP2 protocol termination. The 48 transcoder boards are connected to TCIF boards via high speed links (HSI). Each TC board is connected to each TCIF board according to a dual star topology. The high speed links carry TDM, TRAU packets, O&M and signaling traffic. Each HSI interface includes one RX link and one TX link at 49.152MHz (i.e. 24 x 2048MHz).

There are four such circuits on the JBTCIF/TP, one per STM-1 link. The APS decision is independent for each STM-1 link. Two JBTCIF boards are interconnected for a quad STM-1 MSP 1 + 1 protection solution. One Hypermapper device on the JATC4S1 is used to interface with x 4 STM-1 working lines while the other device on the second JATC4S1 mezzanine card is used as an interface for the protection lines associated with the four working STM-1s. The protection links are routed between the two JBTCIF in the backplane through the update channels.

Both the Hypermapper and JGTC4S1 FPGA have loop back facilities for test purposes.
2.2.2.6 Local Bus Adaptation

Only the JGTC4S1 is connected to the local bus of the mother board. It performs the adaptation between the local bus and the processor interface of the Hypermapper. It gathers all the interrupts.

2.3 FANU
The 9125 TC is equipped with a forced-air cooling system. Each subrack has three fan units (FANUs), situated below the MT120 boards. Each FANU contains two fan blowers, controlled by the MT120 board. Possibility of Overheating Do not insert the FANUs if there are no MT120s in the same subrack to provide them with power, otherwise they will restrict the airflow. Ensure that: The MT120s with even number are connected to the three fans in the back panel The MT120s with odd number are connected to the three fans in the front panel

FANU
Figure 11: Position of FANUs in Subrack To extend the life of the fans and to keep the noise level to a minimum, the speed of the fans is adjustable. Each MT120 board is equipped with a temperature sensor. The MT120 measures its temperature and provides power and digital speed control for the FANUs. This enables the temperature inside the rack to be regulated more precisely. Each of the MT120 boards controls the FANU of the same subrack. For cooling efficiency, however, all the FANUs of the rack must have the same speed. Each MT120 broadcasts the measured temperature to all other MT120 and the speed depends on the highest measured temperature.

3.1 Introduction
The 9125 TC can be used for: New BSSs Extensions of G2 TCs, possibly with mixing of 9125 TCs and G2 TCs G2 TC replacement. In this case, one 9125 TC rack can replace several G2 TC racks. The 9125 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 TC rack has up to 192 A trunk connections to the MSC. For Qmux continuity, all DTCs of a 9120 BSC rack must be connected to the same 9125 TC rack. The same principle is used for the 9130 BSC 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 TC via a minimum of two Atermux connections.
3.2 Multiple BSC Connection

3.2.1 Rack Sharing
The 9125 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. This is a static allocation; the MT120 board is attached to the BSC at installation time.
3.2.2 Multiple BSC

The 9125 TC can serve up to 24 BSCs, possibly controlled by different OMC-Rs. In the example figure below, the TC (2) serves four BSCs, controlled by two OMC-Rs. The BSC (4) is connected to two TCs, with the restriction that one BSC rack must be connected to the same TC rack.

3.3 Rack filling

Theoretically, it is possible to put any MT120 board in any slot in the four subracks. However, depending on the cable entry (from the top or from the bottom), the rack is filled differently onsite. The rack is filled: Positioning: Always from left to right From bottom to top, when bottom cable entry is used From top to bottom, when top cable entry is used. The filling granularity is one MT120 board, with a minimum of two boards per occupied shelf. These must be in odd and even numbered slots to power both sets of fans. The BSC to MT120 connection information is only available via the TC NEM.

4.9.1.3 HSI Cables

When a JSTCIF subrack is used, it is connected to each JSTC subrack by three HSI cables. A HSI is a point-to-point interface. It is composed of four pairs of signals, three pairs of which are used to exchange serial data between JBMTE2 and JBTCIF, while the remaining pair is used to give to JBTCIF the line reference timing. All high-speed links are cabled to the backside of the interface sub rack by using SCSI-3 34 pair cables. Each TCIF board manages the four pairs for 48 boards, for a point to point HSI interface in a JSTC subrack. This results in 2 x 192 pairs for the complete cabinet. As SCSI-3 34 pair cables are used, there are 12 connectors for the JSTCIF subrack. The selected connector for HSI interconnections is an Amplimite 68-pin female connector.
