• LAN – using an internet browser with the MNGT port address

• USB/RS232 –using a serial connection using the WebLCT Console (on SIAE site: http://siaemic.com and, after the login, Download area, Software, WEB LCT). The connection address is assigned by

Downshift (from 256QAM to 4QAM): the modulation complexity and the radio capacity decrease.

Upshift (from 4QAM to 256QAM): the modulation complexity and the radio capacity increase.

Adaptive Code Modulation 1 / 2

ACM profilesIn ALplus2/ALCplus2 radio family uses Adaptive Code and Modulation (ACM) in order to employ the correct modulation

profile depending on the Rx signal quality .Available ACM profiles are the following: • 4QAM strong • 4QAM • 8 PSK • 16 QAM • 32 QAM • 64QAM • 128QAM • 256 QAM

ACM switchingThe usage of the previous modulation profiles in a fixed channel bandwidth results in a variable capacity.The criteria defining the necessity of an ACM switching, upshift or downshift, is the Rx S/N ratio .

• Upshift – When there is an increase of received S/N, within the same Channel Spacing, the modulation complexity is increased in the direction from 4QAM strong to 256QAM increasing the spectral efficiency

• Downshift – When there is a decrease of received S/N, within the same Channel Spacing, the modulation is reduced in the direction from 256QAM to 4QAM strong reducing the spectral efficiency,

These profiles operate in an RF channel with the following bandwidth:

• 7 MHz

• 14 MHz

• 28 MHz

• 56 MHz

ODU passaband filters

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 22

Adaptive Code Modulation 2 / 2

ACM settingThe ACM can vary modulation profiles between two extremes defined by the operator through software configuration: Upper Modulation and Lower Modulation.

• Upper Modulation – When propagation into the given radio channel is in the better condition (high Rx • S/N), the radio link is working at the maximum throughput defined at Upper Modulation: the highest • modulation profile that ACM can employ • Lower modulation – When propagation into the given radio channel is in the worst condition (low Rx • S/N), the radio link is working at the minimum throughput, defined at Lower Modulation: the lowest • modulation profile that ACM can employ

Tx Power modeTx power mode can be set as Constant Peak or Constant Average (constant bolometer measurement).

• Constant Peak – Tx power is at maximum at 4QAM and at 256QAM is reduced (typical 4.5 dB) so the • RF Tx amplifier can operate in better linear conditions

• Constant Average – Tx power is the same at any modulation.

The Tx Power mode is set depending on the modulation license of the user

With Constant Average Tx power (Tx Power Constant Peak Mode = Disable), the Tx power at 4QAM and any other modulation is the same, so if Upper Modulation is 256QAM the output power at any modulation is the same of 256QAM which is 4.5 dB less than 4QAM. The result is that enabling 256QAM is a big advantage for traffic but less link budget margin at 4QAM.

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 25

Peak and 4QAM as ref. mod.

With Peak mode enabled and 4 QAM as reference modulation, the max Pout is the max Pout of the radio at any modulation

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 26

Peak and 256QAM as ref. mod.With Peak mode enabled and 256 QAM as reference modulation, the max Pout is the Pout that makes the transmitted spectrum not going out from the mask relevant to reference modulation. If reference modulation is not the one that allows the max Pout of the radio, the Tx power mode comes back to Average.

Every time the reference modulation is higher than the lower modulation…the power mode becomes Average

• Every Byte is 64 Kbit/s channel

•STM-1 frame has a payload big enough for 1 E4 (140 Mbit/s) or 3 E3 (3 x 34 Mbit/s) or 63 E1 (63 x 2 Mbit/s)

Path overhead The Virtual Container is made up by path overhead and relevant container:

VC path overhead allows BER extimations, alarm and trouble information, multiplation indication.

Depending on C, 2 different POH exist:

VC-3 / VC-4 POH (with E3 and E4)

VC-11 / VC-12 POH (with A1 and E1)

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 39

Compensation of variation of payload bit rate (with respect to nominal one) is obteined using stuffing.

In AUOH there are 6 bytes for justification signal and other 6 bytes (3 in SOH and other 3 adiacent in the same line of the payload) used for stuffing in order to adjust the position of VC first byte: Adjustment, if necessary, concerns 3 bytes more or less (154 µs delay or anticipation) and the update is every 4 frames.

TAG composition

1 VLAN TAG

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 59

IEEE 802.1Q VLANsVLANs in two different ways:- Based on Port, VLAN related to a local port attribute

- Based on IEEE 802.1Q TAG , VLAN is defined by the VID

(VLan Identifier) TAG content.

Switching between ports is based on VLAN membership defined

into Vlan configuration table.

Lan1 and Port1 are members of Vlan 303

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 60

IEEE 802.1Q VLANs

• Break a LAN into a few smaller LANs and prevent data to flow between the sub-LANs

• Micro segment the LAN with scalability• Distribute traffic load • Better control of broadcast messages• VLAN: a field starting with other 4 Bytes starting with

the 2 Bytes 8100 – the packet size from 1518 Bytes arrives to 1522!

• VLAN with double TAG: a new field with other 4 Bytes starting with the 2 Bytes 9100 (see Ethernet Switch) – Remember to increase packet size!

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 61

VLAN

Disable 802.1q: no Tag filter, “LAN per port” rules

Fallback: if input is tagged, Virtual LAN map rules will be followed; if input tag is not present in the map or input is untagged, Lan per port rules will be followed

Secure: if input is tagged, Virtual LAN map rules will be followed; if input tag is not present in the map or input is untagged, packets will be dropped

VLAN can be used to route packets through local and remote switch.

If VLAN are not used, “Lan per port” assignment is used port by port

Bridge1 or Bridge2, every equipment crossed by a packet increases of 1 sec the max age

of the packet

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 75

STP parameters

• Hello time: from 2 to 10 sec, is the period between two BPDU packets

• Forward Delay: the time for a status change (blocking learning, learningforwarding, forwardingblocking). In this way the time requested from blocking to forwarding is twice the Forward Delay (2 status changes)

• Max Age: If the incoming packet has a max age bigger than the one here defined, the packet is dropped

ALplus2/ALCPLUS2 76

RSTP parameters

• Hello time: from 1 to 10 sec, is the period between two BPDU

packets

• Forward Delay: the time for a status change (blocking learning,

learningforwarding, forwardingblocking). In RSTP the time

requested from blocking to forwarding between two RSTP ports is the

hallo time (RAPID!) instead if the other port is not RSTP, again the

time is twice the Forward Delay (2 status changes)

• Max Age: If the incoming packet has a max age bigger than the one

here defined, the packet is dropped
