1 GENERAL
The 1850 TSS-320 equipment performs Multi-Service integration (SDH/Sonet, Data, WDM and PDH)
Indeed by combining Sonet/SDH ADM and DCS, WDM Mux/Demux, multiservice data switching and
aggregation capabilities in one NE, 1850TSS will allow network operators to easily increment function-
alities and performances of their network leveraging on current infrastructures.
ThepresenthandbookcontainsdetailedinformationofSDH unitsandOpticalModulesusedinthe
equipment for Synchronous applications.
For all general information on the equipment and for details on common unit used in all the various appli-
cations refers to the Technical Handbook Common (ref.[2] on page 10)
More in detail refer to the cited handbook for:
–General presentation and insertion of the equipment in the network
–Physical composition of the equipment with list of units, acronym, part number, quantity, notes, etc
–System description of all the various application (SDH/Sonet, Data, WDM and PDH) and features
–Detailed description, characteristics, hardware setting of common unit used in all the various appli-
cations
–General equipment technical specification and norms
–Dismantling and recycling procedures
1.1 SDH network configuration
The 1850 TSS-320 equipment is compliant with the SDH Synchronous Digital Hierarchy defined by the
ITU-T Recs.
The equipment 1850 TSS-320 can be utilized in metropolitan networks configured for standard plesio-
chronous or synchronous systems.
It is also possible to interface the line with CWDM application by inserting the relevant board directly in
the 1850 TSS-320 subrack; for details about CWDM application refer to relevant Technical Handbook.
The1850TSS-320 can be suitably employed on linear, ring and hub networks and on protected or unpro-
tected line links.
The equipment applications depends on the different types of networks available.

1.1.1 Configuration
• Terminal multiplexer (see Figure 1. on page 14).
The NE is provided with an STM-N (with N=1÷64) a station interface (eventually stand-by too)
to be connected to a Digital Electronic Cross-Connect or to a higher hierarchical line system.
Figure 1. Terminal multiplexer
• Add/Drop Multiplexer (see Figure 2. on page 14)
The NE can be programmed to drop (insert) signals from (into) the STM-N (with N=1÷64)
stream.
Partofthesignalpass-throughbetweenthelinesides,defined A and B in Figure2.onpage14.
Figure 2. Add/Drop Multiplexer
• "HUB" STM-N (see Figure 3.on page 14)
The NE permits to drop/insert STM-N tributaries into a multiple stream and then branch them
off in HUB structures.
Figure 3. "HUB" STM-1
• Mixed Configuration
The NE can handle in the same node all the previously configuration thus performing a mixed
configuration.

1.1.2 Application
For each of the above configurations different network topologies may be used. The most important
network topologies are:
Point to Point
Linear
Ring and multiring topology
Meshed topology
• Point-to-point link (see Figure 4. on page 15)
In this case the NE can be connected to another multiplexer through the line
Figure 4. Point-to-point links
• Linear Drop-insert (see Figure 5.on page 15)
The NE can be programmed to drop (insert) PDH and SDH ports from (into) the STM-N (with
N=1÷64) stream or terminate PDH ports

• Meshed Topology (see Figure 7. on page 17)
TheMeshedtopologymaybeused incase of collection oftrafficin peripheralnodesorcus-
tomer premises sites. 1+1 line protection may be used to protect against line failure and, in
some cases, node failure could be protected using dual hub topology too. For this type of net-
work topologies the mini digital cross connect system is very useful and SNCP/I is used.
