1.2 Benefits
Capable of Evolving to a Tera Network and Providing Smooth
Wireless Communication
The BSC6910 conforms to the trend of "higher capacity, fewer sites", saving space in the
equipment room. In addition, the BSC6910 meets the requirements of rapid service growth
and maximizes operators' return on investment (ROI).
The BSC6910 uses Platform of Advanced Radio Controller REV:b (PARCb) subracks and
supports a processing capability of 10 GE slots. The BSC6910 of later versions will support
the evolution to a processing capability of 40 Gbit/s to 100 Gbit/s per slot and to a Tera
network.
The BSC6910 uses a new general processing board, Evolved General Processing Unit REV:a
(EGPUa), which supports a maximum processing capability of 2 Gbit/s. When processing
control-plane signaling, the new board outperforms the counterpart of the BSC6900 by 5
times. When processing user-plane data, the new board outperforms the counterpart of the
BSC6900 by 2.5 times.
Normalized Board, Minimizing Network Deployment Costs

The BSC6910 introduces the Evolved General Processing Unit REV:a (EGPUa), which
incorporates the functions of multiple boards of the BSC6900 in A over IP mode, including
the XPUa, XPUb, SPUa, SPUb, DPUb, DPUc, DPUd, DPUe, DPUf, and DPUg. When loaded
with different software and configuration data, the EGPUa can be flexibly configured to work
in different modes and process control-plane and user-plane data for the BSC or RNC.
Flexible Network Capacity Expansion Through Resource Pool

Design
All BSC6910 resources are designed in the resource pool mode. The BSC6910 resources
consist of control-plane resources, user-plane resources, and transmission resources. Controlplane and user-plane resources can be shared to better adapt to traffic model changes in
UMTS.

Product Description
1 Introduction
The BSC6910 UMTS supports the plug-and-play and automatic deployment functions. When
hardware resources become insufficient, operators can simply add a board by running MML
commands, insert the physical board into the subrack, and power on the board. Then, the
BSC6910 will automatically deploy the required software on the board based on the system
pre-configuration and traffic load. The BSC6910 will also assign control-plane or user-plane
services to the board to implement load sharing. Operators do not need to manually perform
load sharing.
Building the SRC Software Architecture to Support Rapid

Deployment and Independent Evolution of New Services
The BSC6910 uses an architecture of hardware resource sharing, transmission resource
sharing, and service isolation. This way, new services (services provided by the ECO6910)
can be deployed on a built-in module (built-in ECO6910) of the BSC6910.
The BSC6910 provides computing resources, storage resources, and network resources for
new services. The new services can be deployed on the BSC6910 without requiring new
hardware and transmission network, rendering a rapid deployment of new services.
BSC6910 services and newly deployed services are separated from each other and do not
affect each other. The built-in ECO6910 version can be upgraded independently without
affecting BSC6910 services. A BSC6910 upgrade affects newly deployed services. In the case
of BSC6910 and built-in ECO6910 upgrades, the BSC6910 can be at most two versions later
than the built-in ECO6910.
Deployment of new services does not affect the O&M interface of the BSC6910.

2.3 Software Architecture

The BSC6910 inherits the layered software architecture of the BSC6900. By deploying
different application software on a unified base platform, the BSC6910 provides different
services. Each layer and each plane are deployed on its lower layer and provide services for
its upper layer and other planes. At the same time, the technical implementation of each layer,
such as algorithms and physical deployment, is isolated from other layers so that each layer
and each plane are dedicated to its own functions and evolve independently. Figure 2-3 shows
the BSC6910 software architecture.

Product Description
2 Architecture
2.4.1 System Reliability
The BSC6910 system reliability design is characterized by:
High-reliability architecture
The port trunking technology is employed on active and standby switching boards.
The ports in a port trunking group work in load sharing mode. When a link between
the SCUb boards in different subracks becomes faulty, the system transfers the
services carried on the faulty link to other links and isolates the faulty link. In
addition, the SCUb boards in different subracks are cross-connected, preventing a
port failure on the SCUb board in one subrack from affecting the SCUb boards in
another subrack. This improves reliability of intra-system communication.
Dual planes are used in clock transmission between the GCUa/GCUb/GCGa/GCGb
board and the SCUb board. Therefore, a single point of failure (SPOF) does not affect
the normal operation of the system clock.
Resource pool design

In case of overload, the system implements load sharing on the control plane and on the
user plane by employing a resource pool design. This effectively prevents resource
suspension caused by an overload, improving resource usage efficiency and system
reliability.
Active/standby switchover
All BSC6910 hardware uses a redundancy mechanism. A rapid switchover between
active and standby parts improves system reliability. In addition, with a quick fault
detection and recovery mechanism, the impact of faults on services is minimized.
Flow control
The system performs flow control based on the CPU and memory usage. The BSC6910
can continue working by regulating the items pertaining to performance monitoring,
resource auditing, and resource scheduling in the case of CPU overload and resource
insufficiency. In this way, system reliability is enhanced.
2.4.2 Hardware Reliability

The BSC6910 hardware reliability design is characterized by:
Multi-level cascaded and distributed cluster control mode. Several CPUs form a cluster
processing system. The communication channels between CPUs are based on the
redundancy design or anti-suspension/breakdown design.
Redundancy design, as described in Table 2-5, to support hot swap of boards and backup
of boards and ports. Therefore, the system has a strong fault tolerance capability.
An isolation mechanism. If entity A fails to accomplish a task, entity B that has functions
identical to entity A takes over the task. In this case, entity A is isolated until it is
restored.
The ability to restart the board to rectify the fault when a board with a unique function is
faulty.
Dual-basic input/output system (BIOS) support. Faults in one BIOS do not affect the
startup or operation of boards.
Nonvolatile memory use to store important data.
All the parts of the system have high quality and pass the aging test. The hardware
assembly process is strictly controlled. These methods ensure high stability and
reliability for long-term operation.

2.4.3 Software Reliability

The BSC6910 software reliability design is characterized by:
Scheduled checks on critical resources

A software check mechanism checks various software resources in the system. If
resources are out of service due to software faults, this mechanism can release abnormal
resources and generate related logs and alarms.
Task monitoring
When software is running, a monitoring process monitors internal software faults and
some hardware faults. The monitoring process then reports the status or errors, of
running tasks, to the O&M system.

Product Description
Figure 1.1 O&M system of the BSC6910
The O&M system of the BSC6910 employs a browser/server (B/S) mode. The EOMUa board
of the BSC6910 works as the server, and the LMT is used for local maintenance. The
iManager U2000 is the centralized O&M system, which is used for remote maintenance.
The alarm box connects to the LMT to provide audible and visible alarm indications.
4.2 Benefits
The BSC6910 provides the following O&M benefits:
Web-based LMT for Improving User Experience

In addition to being managed by the operations support system (OSS), the BSC6910 can also
be operated using the web-based LMT. All operation results are displayed on the LMT
through the web browser. You can connect the LMT to the BSC6910 to perform O&M
operations for the BSC6910 and to obtain LMT online help.
Web-based LMT does not require software installation or upgrades, simplifying user
operations and improving user experience.
Diversified O&M Modes for Convenient Operation and

Maintenance
The BSC6910 provides both local and remote maintenance and supports multiple O&M
modes to meet the needs in various O&M scenarios.
For local maintenance, the LMT can access the BSC6910 through:
The port on the panel of the EOMUa board
The virtual local area network (VLAN)

For remote maintenance, the iManager U2000

can access the BSC6910 through:
The VLAN
The Intranet and Internet
Powerful Hardware Management Functions for Quickly Locating

and Rectifying Hardware Faults
The BSC6910 provides a pre-warning mechanism for hardware faults, ensuring that sufficient
time will be available to rectify the faults before services are interrupted.
The BSC6910 provides functions such as status query, data configuration, and status
management of internal devices.
When a hardware fault occurs, the BSC6910 alerts users by generating alarms and flashing
indicators and guides the users in troubleshooting. Alarms are cleared upon the rectification of
the faults.
The BSC6910 can isolate a faulty component by performing an operation such as activating
or deactivating the faulty component. When a faulty component needs to be replaced, the hot
swap function enables quick power-on of the substitute, reducing the time required to rectify
faults.
In the event of an emergency, you can perform a board reset or similar operation to quickly
rectify the fault.
Advanced Software Management Functions for Secure and

Smooth Upgrades
The BSC6910 provides a remote upgrade tool, which enables the operator to upgrade the
software at the operation maintenance center (OMC) without interrupting ongoing services.
The remote upgrade tool can back up crucial data in the system. If the upgrade fails, version
rollback can be performed immediately and the system quickly returns to normal.
To confirm the software version, after an upgrade is complete, a version consistency check is
performed.
Rich Tracing and Detection Mechanisms for Reliably Monitoring

the Network Status
The BSC6910 provides the tracing and detection functions on multiple layers and multiple
levels to accurately locate faults. The tracing and detection functions include user tracing,
interface tracing, message tracing, fault detection at the physical layer, and fault detection at
the data link layer.
Tracing messages are saved as files which can be viewed through the review and tracing
functions of the LMT.

Product Description
Easy Equipment Installation and Commissioning, and Efficient

Network Upgrade Scheme for Quick Network Deployment
Before delivery, boards and operating systems are installed in, and common data is configured
for, the BSC6910. You only need to install the cabinets and cables onsite. After the hardware
installation is complete, you can load software and data files to commission the software and
hardware.
Board adjustments and software upgrades can be performed to configure the BSC6910 as one
of three types: GSM, UMTS, and GU. This helps smooth the transition from GSM to GU and
between GU and UMTS. In addition, the BSC6910 provides the GSM/UMTS convergence
solution and help operators maximize return on investment (ROI).
Robust Security Operation Mechanism for Preventing

Misoperations
The BSC6910 provides a man-machine interface and prompts users to confirm important
operations. This ensures that operations are performed only when they are required and
prevents service interruptions caused by users.
