1. INTRODUCTION
1.1.General Characteristics
FOX505 is a compact Access – Mux with transport capacity up to STM-1. The network element fully supports ring
and linear topologies and is ideal to feed higher order SDH-backbones. Its extended operational temperature
range and a wide choice of interfaces match the requirements of most utilities.
The 19“ wide / 4+21 units high chassis provides 14 front-access slots for:
• 2 redundant controller modules

• 2 redundant, hot swappable power supply modules
• 2 high speed modules (e.g. STM-1)
• 8 slots for any combination of other interface cards.
The controller boards (CPUX) provide management access (LAN & RS232) as well as external alarm inputs (3) and one
output. In addition, a synchronization port is available. Two board options with different cross-connect sizes allow
optimizing this rugged network element technically as well as cost-wise.
The design of the multiplexer allows contiguous operation at temperatures up to 55oC.
Whatever supply voltage in the range of 93-250 VAC / 36-72 VDC is applied, it can be handled by the same type of
power supply module and redundant load-sharing operation is fully supported.
The device can cope with the typical Ethernet / LAN utility requirements in the field of access-services. An Ethernet
switch board offers L1 & L2 functionality whereas the IP / PPP board handles all TDM traffic carrying PPP-encapsulated
IP-traffic.

1.2.Common Applications
SDH network access: 64kbit/s timeslot level cross-connect for STM-1 interface receive data.
Cross-connect in any port (Grooming): it is possible to consolidate the traffic from many sub-used channels in a single
channel. The E1 ports data can be mapped to any timeslot of any port. In this manner, any port can function as
aggregate, so it can be optimized for each application. The CPUX128 allows concentrating the tributaries in 2Mbit/s
channels mapped for the STM-1 aggregate.
CAS cross-connect, generated from mapping between E1 and STM-1 (2Mbit/s channels) interfaces.

2. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
2.1.Environmental Conditions
Operation Temperature: from 0 to 55°C (for more details, please, refer to the Installation and Operation Manual)
Storage Temperature: -40 a 85 C.
Relative Humidity: up to 95%, non-condensing.
2.2.Power Supply – PSU
Before connecting any cable to the equipment, make sure that the grounding system is functional.
Power is supplied to the equipment through a power cord terminated with a three-prong plug. This cable can be
connected to any type of AC outlet, within the specified voltage limits. If using DC power, the AC plug must be cut from
the power cord. Use the wire corresponding to the central pin as the protection ground and the other two for DC power,
regardless of polarity. The equipment chassis is connected to the protection ground.
The equipment can be powered with any voltage within the range specified below, without any kind of manual selection.
This is automatically done by the equipment, for both the main supply and the optional back-up power supply. Two
supplies can be installed, for redundant operation. The supplies can be hot-swapped.

2.3.Consumption Calculation
This topic shows how to calculate total equipment power consumption. This information will be used to dimension both
protection and refrigeration systems.
• Check the energy supply font model
• Choose a column. Use only one column, referring to operation conditions
o If energy supply font is in DC, use only DC W column
o If energy supply source is in AC, use W column for cooling dimensioning only. All other conditions
must use VA column
• Sum every cards energy consumption
If using one energy supply font in DC and other in AC, calculate total power consumption considering the highest power
consumption situation.
Consumption Calculation: if total power is 60W while using DC-W and 93VA when using AC-VA, it must be considered
93VA as total power.
Refrigeration Calculation: if total power is 60W in DC-W and 53W in AC-W (for each energy supply font), take the higher
value into consideration.

The front panel connectors have the following use:
• RS232 Connector: it connects the MUX serial communication cable between the equipment and the user
terminal (see 2.6).


© ABB Ltd
The user must make sure there is no voltage difference between the Mux DB9 pin 5 (signal ground) and pin 5 of the
DB9 (or DB25 pin 7) for the PC or terminal. If this happens it will damage the Mux and the PC or terminal serial
interfaces. To check that there is no voltage difference, use an AC voltmeter to check the voltage between these pins. If
there is a voltage difference, check if the MUX and the PC are properly grounded and connect the signal ground to the
MUX protective ground. This should solve the problem. If the above conditions are met, then the serial cable can be
connected without turning off the equipment.
• ALARM Connector: it has the alarm input and output connections (see 2.6).
• RJ45 Connector: connection to Ethernet 10/100BaseT. It can be directly connected to a hub or switch (see 2.6).
• BNC Connector: to connect a 2048kHz external clock source.
2.6.1. LED indicators
There are 6 LEDs in the CPUX front panel. Their function is described as follows (even if the CPUX is in active or
standby mode).
Power LED indicates that FOX505 is turned on.
If the CPUX is in standby mode, the ALARM LED indicates that the card cannot take control and have lost its
synchronism with the main CPUX. The main CPUX ALARM LED shows 3 different critical alarms (Critical, High or Low).
If the LED is on (red light) it means Critical alarm. If it blinks twice and fast, it means High and if it blinks in intervals
longer than 1 second it means Low alarm.
When the CPUX is active, the FAIL LED will turn on whenever there is a hardware fail happening. Otherwise, it will be
kept off.
The TEST LED indicates that there is a test going on. It will be kept on while any test is being executed in any interface.
When the CPUX is active, the LED ETH_LINK turned on will indicate that the front panel Ethernet Link (10/100Base-T) is
active. Otherwise, the LED will turn off in normal conditions.
THE CPUX_ACTIVE LED indicates if the CPUX is on (LED on) or is in standby (LED off) mode.

3. GENERAL OPERATION
The main characteristic of the FOX505 is its capability of directly cross connecting data from a PDH network, incoming
from its tributaries, to data incoming from an SDH network (HS interfaces).
The CPUX cross-connection matrix links the PDH tributaries and the HS interfaces.
3.1.Cross-Connection Matrix
In CPUX128 the matrix is composed of 257 data lines and three lines dedicated to management channels, each one
with 2Mbit/s rate carrying 32 timeslots of 64kbit/s.
Each timeslot of a matrix line can be mapped to any timeslot of any other line, performing also the CAS cross-connect
whenever applicable.
The connection of a tributary interface to the matrix occurs independently of user action, however, for the HS interfaces,
the connection will be performed when the user maps data from a VC12 to the connection E1 interface.
When considering HS interfaces, the matrix connection will be established whenever the user maps the VC12 Data to
the E1 connection interface.
Each of the equipment cards transferring data will use at least one line in that matrix. See 3.1 for further details. The
matrix use should always be taken into account when designing a network with the FOX505, for the matrix has limited
capacity.

Table 10.Example of Matrix Seizure

(*) According to evaluation of use described below.
Considering that data will be mapped for VC12 and then transferred to the other SDH network equipments, data will be
distributed in the following way (for example):
• E1_1 (KLM111): data from slot H (2*512kbit/s), from slot E (6*128kbit/s) and from slot C (64kbit/s);
• E1_2(KLM112)/E1_3(KLM131): data from both slot F interfaces (2048kbit/s);
• E1_4(KLM211): data from slot B, port 1 (1024kbit/s), data from slot A (640kbit/s);
• E1_5(KLM322)/E1_6(KLM371)/E1_7(KLM373): each one of the three remaining slot B ports (1024kbit/s) and
two slot D ports (2*256kbit/s).
From this evaluation it is possible to conclude that 7 matrix lines will be needed to place data incoming from the PDH
network.
In this example 20 matrix lines were needed. There would still be lines available for timeslot cross connecting (64kbit/s)
STM1 ring VCs or for future network expansion.
3.2.System Clock
As data incoming from each of the equipment interfaces will be cross-connected in a single commuting matrix, it is
essential for correct operation that the system is employing a single clock source.
The user can define up to six clock hierarchies for the equipment, corresponding to the interfaces that are capable of
providing clock. There are two switching methods that the equipment can employ: hierarchy switching and sync
messages switching.
For both methods the non-reversible mode can be used, avoiding an intermittent clock reference from affecting the
system. Alternatively, the user can use the reversible mode, allowing the system to switch to its best configured clock
source that can provide system clock at that moment.
3.2.1. Hierarchy Switching
This method is based in the user-defined clock source priorities to choose which one the equipment will use.
The six hierarchies each have a priority, where the lowest numbered hierarchy is the highest priority, being used
whenever possible.
The operation of this method is simpler, but it does not guarantee that the best available reference is being employed.
3.2.2. Sync message switching
The clock switching by sync status message is based upon the existence of a quality indicator for each clock hierarchy.
This indicator can be automatically updated for STM-1 links or manually inserted for the other cases.


© ABB Ltd
The quality indicators are used to evaluate the quality of the clock received at each hierarchy and, based on that quality,
provide information so the equipment can choose the best clock available.
Within the STM-1 network, the clock quality indicators travel in the S1 byte of the multiplexing section and are changed
by the equipments as failures are detected in sync sources or switching in the network occur.
The user can then individually configure, for each clock hierarchy, the quality of the input to be considered, and also the
output quality to be sent to the STM-1 links (in the S1 byte) when each of these sources is being used. The output
quality, however, cannot be greater than the input quality.
When the input quality is configured for the automatic mode, the quality of the reference will be obtained from the
message received in S1. When the output quality is configured for the automatic mode, the equipment will copy the input
quality value to the clock output quality.
Using automatic input clock quality has application only for sync sources that have a valid quality indicator, that is, only
for the sync sources derived from the STM-1 lines.
3.3.Hot Restart
One of the important equipment characteristics is its ability to do firmware updates with a minimum down time.
The process comprises storing the main equipment information before it is being reset and using this data later on, thus
avoiding unnecessary reprogramming and reconfiguring of the cards already inserted in the equipment.
Whenever a firmware upgrade is performed, the unsaved configurations will be saved to ensure that the equipment will
restart with the configuration that was active before the upgrade.
Whenever there is an equipment restart, the protected links will try to follow the path configured as the work path, leading
to data loss of around 50ms in these links, if they are operating within the protection section.
The equipment will try to use the best available sync source. The blocked reference status is not kept when the
equipment is restarted. Data losses of up to one second can occur when the equipment operates with regenerated clock.

© ABB Ltd
4. CPUX REDUNDANCY
To minimize equipment unavailable time caused by hardware failures and possible equipment firmware problems, the
FOX505 allows using two CPUX cards operating in redundant mode.
In this way, the strategic client services will be safe against problems in the CPUX card, so that a defective card will
cause only some seconds of down time, even if the defective card takes days to be replaced.
It is only possible redundancy between equal models of CPUX. Two CPUX128, for example.
4.1.Operating Characteristics
4.1.1. Redundant Operating Mode
It is up to the user to configure if the equipment will operate with CPUX redundancy or not. If this option is enabled, there
must always be two CPUX cards inserted in the equipment. Otherwise, the redundancy failure alarm will occur. While
this alarm is active, the equipment will not accept firmware updates.
Once redundancy is enabled, there are two possible roles for each of the equipment CPUs:
• Active: all data pass through the active CPUX. This is the only CPUX directly accessible to management, and
only if it fails or if there is user intervention it will leave this state.
• Standby: the role of the standby CPUX is to reestablish data flow after a failure or if the active CPUX issues a
request.
Choosing the role to assign to each CPUX occurs during system initialization. This is not configurable and it does not
depend on the slot in which the card is inserted.
Note that whenever the standby CPUX becomes active, data errors will appear in the interfaces in use, for the switching
matrix is stored in the CPUX. The unavailable time depends upon the reason for the card switching and goes from 3
seconds to 4 minutes.
To ensure that the standby CPUX can be in charge of the equipment data, the active CPUX starts the system sync
process whenever it detects the standby CPUX. This sync process occurs whenever the configuration or the equipment
firmware is changed.
4.1.2. Sync process
The sync process is the process by which the active CPUX tries to update the information of its database in the standby
CPUX. In the sync process, other than the equipment configuration data and some status information, the standby CPUX
firmware is also updated.
From the moment that the standby CPUX has its database in sync, it will be prepared to take control of the equipment
and will do so if necessary. If any sync problem arises, the standby CPUX sync failure alarm will become active and user
action will be requested to restart the process. If sync problems occur, it is usually a hardware failure.


© ABB Ltd
4.1.3. Switching Test
The user can switch from the active CPUX to the standby CPUX, in this way being able to servicing in an active
CPUX.
When this procedure is performed, there will be data loss, even if the standby CPUX is in sync. In this case the errors will
last few seconds only. If the standby CPUX is not ready, the user should not switch, for it could lead to permanent failure
in the client data links.

5. ELECTRICAL E1 CARD - E1
The FOX505-E1 card has one E1 interface, with impedance selectable (75ohms or 120ohms in the same model (BNC
connector for 75ohms impedance and RJ48 Connector for 120ohms impedance).
Frame structure (transparent or structured) as defined by ITU-TS Recommendation G.704. The number of timeslots
available for the user, in the framed mode, is at most 31, for timeslot 0 is used for frame sync. For telephony applications
using Channel Associated Signaling (CAS), there are only 30 timeslots available, for timeslot 16 transports CAS
signaling.
Speed of 2048kbit/s, using HDB3 coding, as defined by Recommendation G.703.
It allows management of remote equipments.

7. NETWORK INTERFACES
The CPUX128 card have 24 wide area network interfaces (WAN) and one physical 10/100BaseTx Ethernet LAN
interface.
The LAN interface can operate with or without auto negotiation, allowing the user to choose between half or full duplex
mode and 10 or 100Mbit/s rate.
Each of the WAN interfaces can be configured for a nx64kbit/s rate, as long as the total rate does not exceed 2048kbit/s,
and can be cross-connected to any physical interface carrying data.
Any of the following protocols can be assigned to each WAN interface:
• Point to point protocol (PPP): according to RFCs 1661 and 1662;
• Frame Relay: with link control protocol (lmi) following ANSI, ITU.Q933 Annex A standards or none;
• Remote management: proprietary protocol for management of equipments connected to tributary interfaces with
no IP management capability.
The equipment performs routing between any of its interfaces following its routing table, which can be built as follows:
• User inserted static routes;
• Routes learned from the RIPv1 and RIPv2 protocols.
The equipment network configuration can be done via management software, terminal or telnet. However, WAN
interfaces physical mapping to data timeslots can only be done through management software.

8. ALARMS
The FOX505 CPUX’s have three inputs for external alarms and one equipment alarm output. The alarm inputs and
output have configurable severity and enabling.
The inputs and output are available in a DB9 connector located in front of the CPUX card. The pin out is given in 2.6.
The alarm output is showed in three different levels: Critical, Major and Minor.
Severities of alarms:
• Critical - These are the most severe equipment alarms. These alarms directly impact equipment basic operation
and cause temporary data loss in the protected links or permanent data loss in unprotected links. Examples:
physical failures in the aggregate links, equipment hardware failures, etc.
• Major - (High priority alarms) – Alarms that impact unprotected link operation, causing temporary data loss in
the protected links. Examples: regenerating section TIM alarm, unprotected tributary link failures, etc.
• Minor - (Low priority alarms) – Alarms that do not cause major equipment operation problems. As minor alarm
examples: remote equipment alarm (RDI), etc.
Every FOX505 alarm generates trap for management and a log input. The alarms are filtered to avoid signaling
redundant problems, and the highest hierarchy alarm is reported.
If an alarm is activated and deactivated many times in a short period of time, an instability situation is noticed. The alarm
is then activated up to the point where the instability does not persist anymore. This situation is properly reported in the
equipment log and by management traps.

9. HOT SWAP
The FOX505 is capable of operating normally when interface cards are added or taken from its slots, without need to
turn off the power supply.
However, some precautions must be taken so that no equipment problem occurs during the process of insertion or
extraction of cards with the equipment under operation.
Hot Swap procedures must be done by expert technicians trained to operate this equipment. Any other person can get
hurt by electric shocks.
The card must be inserted correctly. It must slide into the slot smoothly. Never force the insertion of a card. In case of
difficulties, stop the insertion and check if there is something blocking the slot, then try again.
9.1.Hot-Swap on the CPUX Card

The CPUX64 card can be inserted or removed with the equipment turned on without equipment damage. As the
commuting matrix resides in the equipment CPUX (see details in Section 3.1), some cares must be taken, such as:
Never run FOX505 without a CPUX: this will generate error in the data of all the interfaces that may not be
reestablished after insertion of new CPUX
Even in redundant operation, bear in mind that extracting the CPUX will always cause bit-errors. If the standby CPUX is
in sync and ready to operate, such errors may occur during 5 seconds after switch-over.DSL-cards may need to resync
the line, which may take up to 1 minute, depending on the line conditions.
It is only possible redundancy between equal models of CPUX. It’ not recommended to run different types of CPUX’s in
the same chassis!
Extracting the standby CPUX does not cause data error.
9.2.Power Supply Card Hot-Swap

The power supply cards can also be inserted and extracted with the equipment in operation. But this is one of the cards
that the user should exercise maximum care when dealing with, for if it is inadequately inserted, it can cause equipment
reset or even personal electric shocks.
9.2.1. Procedures for safely inserting a POWER SUPPLY card
• First take off the basic unit slot protection cover where it is desired to install the supply.
• Connect the power cable to the supply card to be installed.


Do not connect the power cord to the outlet now.
• Insert the supply in its appropriate slot and push it nearly to the end (it is important that its front panel reaches
approximately 1cm from the edge of the cabinet).
• Connect the power cable to the outlet to power the supply.
• Completely insert the supply card in the equipment and screw it tightly.
The POWER SUPPLY card has “live” connections (with outlet voltage and other higher voltage levels) in many places.
So, if the above procedure is not followed, the user will be exposed to electric shocks and may also cause interruption in
the equipment operation or even equipment damage.
9.2.2. Removing Power Supply with Security
• Turn off the power supply to be extracted, by removing its power cable.
• Next, extract the power supply card from the cabinet.
9.3.Interface Card Hot-Swap

Most of the FOX505 interface cards are hot-swappable. To identify the cards that can be inserted or extracted during
operation without risking equipment damage.

damage or hazard.
Before the installation, read the entire manual attentively.
The power supply, where the supply cable is connected, must be positioned near the equipment and be on an easily
accessible location, because the equipment is turned on and off through it.
Follow attentively every guidance included in this manual. In case of doubts, please contact the authorized technical
support.
installing, always tighten screws and knurling screws until the end of their thread and until they are completely tightened.
The power supply, where the supply cable is connected, must be positioned near the equipment and have easy access,
because the equipment is turned on and off through it.
In case of using DC voltage, you must be careful so that the equipment protection earth cable (green cable with yellow
line related to the central socket pin) matches the system protection earth cable. This cable must be connected before
any other connection. The metallic structure of the equipment is connected to the protection earth cable.
The equipment supports a 6.3A fuse, type T (delay), 250 V. If necessary, replace it only for another one of the same type
and value.
This unit has more than one power supply cord. Disconnect all power supply cords to completely remove power from this
unit.

The user must make sure there is no voltage difference between the Mux DB9 pin 5 (signal ground) and pin 5 of the
DB9 (or DB25 pin 7) for the PC or terminal. If this happens it will damage the Mux and the PC or terminal serial
interfaces. To check that there is no voltage difference, use an AC voltmeter to check the voltage between these pins. If
there is a voltage difference, check if the MUX and the PC are properly grounded and connect the signal ground to the
MUX protective ground. This should solve the problem. If the above conditions are met, then the serial cable can be
connected without turning off the equipment.
To comply with EMC requirements, use only good quality cables and connectors approved for this purpose, according
the following interfaces.
To ensure compliance with EMC standards, when operating in 120 ohms, shielded cables connecting to ground (GND)
are required.
To ensure compliance with EMC standards, when selected to operate in 75 ohms, shielded cables connecting to ground
are required, i.e, straps E1 and E2 shall be in the position 0 – 1 (GND).
To ensure compliance with EMC standards, shielded cables connecting to ground (GND) are required.
To ensure compliance with EMC standards all input and output shielded cables connecting to ground is required, i.e, all
straps shall be in the grounded position.
To ensure compliance with EMC standards, shielded cables connecting to ground (GND) are required.
Bad or missing FGND can cause performance degrading. The tests for the above cited ranges were done connecting
FGND and DGND.
When connected to external lines, external protection must be installed to avoid equipment damage.
It is necessary to be careful in order to not connect an external power supply to a pack while the straps are configured
for internal power. This procedure may cause irreparable damages to the card.
The card must be inserted correctly on the guides, and run easily. If there is something blocking the fitting, do not force
it. Remove the card, check what could be preventing the proper fitting and try again.
Never leave FOX505 without no hardware CPUX: this will generate error in the data of all the interfaces that could
exactly not be reestablished after insertion of new CPUX. It always connects the new CPUX before removing the first
one.
