1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
This document is valid as of Dragon PTN Release 3.0DR.
In general, FXS (=Foreign eXchange Subscriber) and FXO (=Foreign eXchange Office)
gateways translate analog voice/modem/fax signals to IP packets and vice versa.
FXO: towards analog PBX (=Private Branch eXchange) or PSTN;
FXS: towards analog telephones, modems or faxes.
The 8-FXS interface module (=IFM) is a VoIP module and makes the transport of analog voice
through the Dragon PTN packet network possible. It will convert analog voice into SIP
(=Session Initiation Protocol) and RTP messages and vice versa. The SIP messages will be
packetized into MPLS-TP packets via a Voice service in HiProvision, to transport the data
through the Dragon PTN network. HiProvision is the Dragon PTN management system.
The Voice service can set up connections between both analog phones and SIP elements
(client, server, trunk). SIP elements can be connected to the Dragon PTN network via
Ethernet IFMs (e.g. 4-GC-LW, ...). Depending on where the call handling must be done, two
different modes can be selected:
Remote extension (FXO Gateway): call handling via FXO gateway to analog public or
private telephone networks;
SIP-server: call handling done in dedicated external SIP server;
This IFM provides 8 ports for connecting 8 analog phones to the Dragon PTN network. It can
be used in any IFM slot of any node. An IFM slot overview can be found in Ref. [3] in Table 1.
Maximum four Voice services can be configured per 8-FXS module.
The main supported features are:
Packetizing of analog voice;
8 ports FXS (G.712 compliant);
Integrated battery feed and ringing generator;
DTMF Dialing;
Converts analog FXS port into SIP Client;
Support for G.711 a/μ law and G.729
encoding/decoding; Modem and fax compatible (no
T.38);
Remote Extension: FXO interworking possible via external device;
Interworks with standard SIP servers;
Voice service modes:
Remote extension (Routable);
SIP-server (Routable);
NOTE: Routable: FXO Gateway or SIP Server can be located in an IP subnet different
from the IP subnet assigned to the 8-FXS ports;
Compatible products can be found in §3.
A general analog Voice service example can be found in the next figure:

Untighten the two fastening screws in the front panel corners. Take the front panel handles
to pull out and finally remove the module from the Dragon PTN node.
2.1.2 LEDs
The meaning of the LEDs depends on the mode of operation (= boot or normal) in which the
8-FXS module currently is running. After plugging in the module or rebooting it, the module
turns into the boot operation, see Table 2. After the module has gone through all the cycles
in the table below (=rebooted successfully), the module turns into the normal operation, see
LEDs in Table 3.

The sub cycle times may vary. The entire boot cycle time [1 5] takes approximately 1 minute.

(*) Port Configured: a port is configured when it is programmed in a Voice service and it has a created account. The account
must have been created via the Voice Protocol wizard in HiProvision.
(**) Register: The analog phones must have been announced or registered first to a third party FXO gateway or SIP-server. This
occurs via a 'REGISTER' message. After registration, the SIP server or FXO gateway knows via which IP address and extension
number the analog phones can be reached. The REGISTER message will be sent automatically by the port, every 120 seconds,
after the port has been configured and loaded in HiProvision. No phone has to be connected yet to start the registration. See
also §2.2.5 for more info on the Register flow.

2.2 Functional Operation
2.2.1 General
An application network can be connected to the MPLS-TP Dragon PTN network via one of
the 8 FXS interface ports. The 8-FXS module can interface with 8 analog telephone lines. In
Figure 1 and Figure 2, a common functional setup is shown.
In Figure 7 below, a more detailed functional setup is shown. An application network
interfaces the Dragon PTN node via the FXS ports on the 8-FXS module. The 8-FXS converts
this traffic into Ethernet traffic on the backplane. The Central Switching Module (=CSM310-
A) converts this Ethernet traffic into packetized MPLS-TP and transmits it via an Ethernet IFM
(e.g. 4-GC-LW) onto the Dragon PTN MPLS-TP network.
LAN: Analog Voice  external devices
WAN: MPLS-TP (on fiber, copper)  between Dragon PTN nodes
Ethernet  node internal
Ethernet  node internal
Figure 7 Detailed Functional 8-FXS Example
2.2.2 I/O with the Central Switching Module (=CSM)
The 8-FXS module receives analog voice via its front panel ports and converts this into
Ethernet traffic which is forwarded to the CSM via the backplane. The CSM does all the
processing on this data (synchronization, CRC checks, conversions, switching…). The CSM
converts this data into MPLS-TP packets and transmits it via an Ethernet IFM (e.g. 4-GC-LW)
onto the WAN. On the destination side, the same processing occurs in reverse order.
2.2.3 Voice Service: Remote Extension (FXO Gateway)
See Figure 1: connections between FXS  VoIP Gateway (=FXO-GW);
Analog phones in the Dragon PTN network are a remote extension of the public (PSTN)
and/or private (PBX) telephone network. The extension is possible via a third party FXO-
GW (e.g. Patton);

Analog phones are connected to an FXS interface (8-FXS module);
FXO Gateways are connected to an Ethernet interface (e.g. 4-GC-LW module);
Voice switching and telephony feature handling between all phones are performed in
the PSTN or PBX;
DTMF (=Dual Tone Multi-Frequency) must be used for number dialing;
Analog speech and signaling are converted and packetized by the FXS interface and the
FXO-GW towards the Dragon PTN network
To set up an entire Voice service in HiProvision (See Ref.[1] in Table 1):
a. Configure a Voice service in HiProvision. A voice service requires at least one 8-FXS port
and one Ethernet port (e.g. 4-GC-LW).
b. Configure a Voice Protocol in the configured Voice service. This voice protocol is
necessary to configure extra/enhanced voice parameters.
NOTE: 8-FXS ports are always consumed per pair in a Voice service: port1+port2;
port3+port4; port5+port6; port7+port8. So if you configure port5 in a first service
e.g. Voice1, port6 can only be used in the same Voice1 service.
2.2.4 Voice Service: SIP-Server
See Figure 2: SIP elements like a SIP Phone and VoIP gateway can be registered on and
handled by the SIP Server;
Analog phones are connected to an FXS interface (8-FXS module) which are registered on
the SIP Server;
Voice switching and telephony feature handling for all calls are performed in the SIP
Server;
Possible SIP telephony features depend on the used SIP devices and their
interoperability.
To set up an entire Voice service in HiProvision (See Ref.[1] in Table 1):
c. Configure a Voice service in HiProvision. A voice service requires at least one 8-FXS port
and one Ethernet port (e.g. 4-GC-LW).
d. Configure a Voice Protocol in the configured Voice service. This voice protocol is
necessary to configure extra/enhanced voice parameters.
NOTE: 8-FXS ports are always consumed per pair in a Voice service: port1+port2;
port3+port4; port5+port6; port7+port8. So if you configure port5 in a first service
e.g. Voice1, port6 can only be used in the same Voice1 service.
2.2.5 SIP Connections
After a Voice service and Voice protocol has been configured in HiProvision, voice calls (or
connections) between analog and/or SIP clients can be set up via SIP calls.
Before any SIP call is possible between end clients A and B, both A and B must register first
to a SIP Server, whatever mode is used, either Remote Extension or SIP Server. A registration
12 Interface Module PTN-8-FXS
Release 01 02/2018

attempt from the 8-FXS IFM automatically occurs (every 120 seconds) when the port on
which A or B is or will be connected, is configured in HiProvision. As a result of a successful
registration process, A and B and their location will be known by the SIP server.
Remote Extension mode: The external FXO Gateway device acts as SIP server;
SIP Server mode: A Server PC with SIP Server software can act as SIP server;
Once the registration has been done, a voice call between A and B is possible. Basically,
when A calls B, a SIP Invite message will be sent to the SIP server first, which redirects the
Invite message to B. B starts ringing, picks up the phone and the Voice call has been set up.
Once the voice call has been established, Real-time Transport Protocol (=RTP) is used to
transport the call data.
Remote Extension mode: the RTP stream always goes through the FXO Gateway device;
SIP-Server mode: It can be configured in the SIP Server itself whether the RTP stream
goes through the SIP Server. If for example the calls must be monitored or recorded, the
RTP must go through the SIP server. Find below some example SIP flow examples.
