The Main Subrack interconnects all other subracks in the RNC through Inter-Subrack Links (ISL). The Main Subrack includes all functions of an Extension Subrack as well as common functions to the RNC. Functions of the Main Subrack: Non-blocking ATM switch ISLs towards the Extension Subracks Processors for user plane processing and control plane processing Processors for centralized node processing Timing signals for the node Local Ethernet termination for element management Transmission interfaces for termination of all interfaces: – Mur interface towards OSS-RC – lu interface towards the Core Network – Iur interface towards other RNCs – lub interface towards the RBSs.

For internal use Dimensioning Traffic Control Capacity The traffic control capacity in the RNC is specified by a parameter called TCPP is a measure of “ number of subscribers ” capacity in each RNC module translated into “ user data in bits per second ”. The dimensioning of the RNC module is based on this value. TCPP values for the various RNC configurations are listed below. Each Expansion rack will add 38 Mbps and Capacity Enhancement feature will additional 8 Mbps of Traffic Control capacity. Iub Throughput Max Iub Throughput is maximum supported user data throughput over Iub. It includ es uplink , downlink and soft handover. It exclud es overhead. The Max Iub of the RNC 3810 is dependent on the size of the RNC. Optional feature RNC HW R 5 Capacity Enhancement ( FAJ 121 1322 ) provides the capacity enhancement of 25 Mbps Throughput Capacity for one extension subrack.

For internal use Basic Transport features With IP solution operaters are able to use native IP over Ethernet in the Iub transport between RBS and RNC. This will be alternative to existing ATM over PDH/SDH. 3 GPP has defined ATM, IPv 4 and IPv 6 transport options for Iub over IP/Ethernet will enable IPv 4 for Iub. ATM Interfaces in RAN (FAJ 121 368) C overs the functions and characteristics of the ATM transmission line interface boards (ETB) for RNC, RBS and RXI. IP Interfaces in RAN (FAJ 121 964) C overs the functions and characteristics of the IP transmission line interface boards (ETB) for RNC, RBS and RXI. ATM & IP dual stack in RNC (FAJ 121 1221) Allows a mix of ATM and IP transport on all interfaces in RNC. With feature ATM and IP Dual Stack support in RBS we are able to use both ATM and IP transport alternatives on the Iub user plane for a particular RBS in parallel. We can chose IP or ATM transport per RAB , configure it in the RNC and activate it per RBS. T he supported ATM and IP Dual Stack Support in RBS configuration is to migrate all or a part of the user plane to IP transport. The idea is that control plane, sync and O&M remain s on ATM transport , and the rest of the traffic to move on IP. For full IP transport in RNC support t he following optional features are required: FAJ 121 973 SS 7 over IP, FAJ 121 976 Iu. PS user plane over IP, FAJ 121 1119 Iu.

IP over Ethernet can also be used for subset of Iub connect ion of RBSes to RNC at the same time as ATM is used for another Iub connect ion sub-set. Iub Transport Split for Best Effort Data (FAJ 121 1101) M akes possible to use public IP transport services (eg x. DSL ) , for the WCDMA RAN Best Effort data traffic by allowing parallel TDM and Ethernet Iub transport links with different Qo. S characteristics to one and the same WCDMA RBS. T ransport split for best effort data on Iub is usually created with optional feature FAJ 121 1311, ATM and IP Dual Stack support in RBS. Iub over IP/Ethernet in RBS (FAJ 121 1132) At the RBS this feature enables the IP/Ethernet transport for Iub. The required HW interfaces is Multifunctional Ethernet Transmission Interface board. This feature requires the optional RAN features to be instaled: FAJ 121 964, IP interfaces in WCDMA RAN and FAJ 121 1118, Iub over IP transport in RNC. IP SOLUTION

For internal use Optional Transport features Network Synch Server for IP transport (FAJ 121 1154) E nables network synchronization for RBS s only connected with IP. It provides the Synch Server part of the function in RNC or RXI. Feature Network Synch Client for IP transport should be implemented in the RBS. The required HW interfaces is Multifunctional Ethernet Transmission Interface board. This feature requires the optional RAN features to be instaled: FAJ 121 1132 Iub over IP transport in RBS , FAJ 121 1118, Iub over IP transport in RNC and FAJ 121 1155 Network Synch Client for IP transport (FAJ 121 1155) E nables network synchronization for RBS s only connected with IP. It provides the Synch Server part of the function in RNC or RXI. Feature Network Synch Server for IP transport should be implemented in the RBS. The required HW interfaces is Multifunctional Ethernet Transmission Interface board. This feature requires the optional RAN features to be instaled: FAJ 121 1132 Iub over IP transport in RBS , FAJ 121 1118, Iub over IP transport in RNC and FAJ 121 1154 Network Synch Server for IP transport. Iub over IP/Ethernet using Pseudo Wire (FAJ 121 1167) E 1/T 1 s can be converted to IP/Ethernet and be connected over a packet based network with Ethernet interface. This is possible with introduction of Ethernet Pseudo Wire Interface Board in RBS or a stand alone remote pseudo wire box and a P seudo W ire A ggregation G ateway node on the RNC side. ATM & IP dual stack in RBS (FAJ 121 1311) With implementing t his feature we are able to have a mix of ATM and IP transport for Iub in an RBS. It makes it possible to use IP transport with lower quality than when using Iub over native IP only. This feature requires the optional RAN features to be instaled: FAJ 121 1132 Iub over IP transport in RBS and FAJ 121 1221 Iub over IP/Ethernet in RNC. IP SOLUTION
