Redundancy:
At link level thanks to Automatic Protection Switching. Solution is
bi-directional and revertive : traffic is always on one link and only
on primary TCIF if links are ok
At board level thank to active/stand-by mode TCIF & TPGSM
(1+1)
The same principles apply to both TC and MxBSC

BSS in a SDH network / TC management
From TC-NEM, configuration management
Running on remote OMCR I.e. no more need to have a local TC-
terminal
TDM to IP change in several steps:
MT120 FW upgrade to have HSI access on top of TCIL
TCIF, STM-1, TC subrack change
Supervision
MxBSC managing TC using Qmux link
TCIF makes central control of the rack
Or TCIF managing MIBs and reportig directly to the OMCRs
thanks to SNMP agent

STM-1 switch
1st assumption is Alcatel Switch 7650-SE quipped with 2 shelfs, 2
control-boards (1+1) switch included (~20KEuros), 2 STM-1 boards
(N+1 redondancy) (~20KEuros), 32 E1 cards (7KEuros) .
Current assumption is Alcatel 1650 SM which is pure VC12/E1 switch
(2G does not need ATM as UMTS)
STM-1 K12/K15 monitoring board does not exist, NetHawk M5M
with STM-1 board is the tool for monitoring.
MSC/E10 with STM-1 interface boards
Hyp : no LSU upgrade to STM-1

STM-1 acronyms
APS: automatic protection switching
2 STM-1 links are connected to the MxBSC/TC
MSP: multiplex section protection
SFP : small form factor pluggable module
SDH: synchronous digital hierarchy
VC: virtual container
UNI/NNI : User-Network Interface / Network-Network Interface
Because of clock mastership (TC, BSC cannot distribute clock)
we cannot have a direct MxBSC-TC STM-1 connection.

Monomode/multimode : type of fiber, usage is monomode
while more expensive
