All in One
The integrated fiber-copper access platform and the access-aggregation integration capability of the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T effectively ensure the smooth evolution of the access network.
The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T supports integrated fiber-copper access and access-aggregation integration, as shown in Figure 1.
Fiber-Copper Integration
The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T enables optical fibers and copper lines to be integrated in one platform, which ensures that the access network can smoothly evolve from copper line access to optical fiber access.
- Optical fiber access: The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T supports GPON, 10G GPON, and P2P optical fiber access, satisfying the requirements of the FTTH, FTTB, FTTC, FTTO, FTTM, and FTTW scenarios.
- Copper line access: The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T supports ADSL2+ (compatible with ADSL), VDSL2 (compatible with ADSL2+), SHDSL, and POTS voice services. The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T supports multiple copper line access modes and makes full use of existing copper line resources to provide users with rich and flexible network services. In addition, the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T can function as a DLSAM to be used in copper access only, or as an MSAN to be used in integrated fiber-copper access.
Access-Aggregation Integration
The MA5600T/MA5603T can implement FTTH/DSLAM access and FTTB/FTTC/DSLAM Ethernet aggregation in the same subrack to provide a unified traffic aggregation point on the FTTH/FTTC/FTTB/FTTD network, thereby achieving aggregation of different network construction modes, eliminating the need to construct an independent access-aggregation network layer, and simplifying the network architecture.
- The MA5600T supports a maximum non-aggregation forwarding capability of 40 Gbit/s x 16 GE.
- The MA5600T and MA5603T support the 48-port high-density aggregation board and provide access for a maximum of 768 GE ports.
- The OLT supports Layer 3 functions and can be used as an aggregation edge device. It possesses powerful Layer 3 service processing capabilities, such as 40G switching capability and 60 Mpps Layer 3 forwarding capability in the 8 x 10 GE upstream load-sharing mode. With these capabilities, the OLT can:
- Reduce upper-layer service traffic and shorten network transmission delay. Specifically, the OLT can perform Layer 3 switching for local traffic, thereby lowering the traffic pressure of the upper-layer network and pressure of network traffic expansion.
- Simplify the network architecture. Specifically, Layer 2 aggregation switches do not need to be deployed, thereby streamlining the network layers.
- Improve network security. Specifically, the upper network does not learn the user-side MAC addresses, thereby eliminating the risks of MAC spoofing and broadcast storms.
- The MA5600T and MA5603T support the mature all-service MPLS solution, as shown in Figure 2.
- The MA5600T and MA5603T support service transmission over ATM PWE3, TDM PWE3, ETH PWE3, VPLS, and L2VPN.
- The MA5600T and MA5603T feature high service performance. Specifically, they support quick E2E service protection (service switching time: ≤ 200 ms).
- The MA5600T and MA5603T do not have limitations on service authentication and terminal VLAN planning, simplifying network design and maintenance.
Aggregation Management for Remote Sites
The OLT supports aggregation management and plug-and-play for remote sites. This eliminates the needs of onsite software commissioning and OSS system integration, which simplifies device management.
The management of remote devices is concentrated on the OLT through the GE aggregation. In this way, the service configuration, software upgrade, and maintenance for remote sites can be implemented using the OLT, which greatly reduces the management complexity of an FTTx network, as shown in Figure 1.
The advantages of aggregation management for remote sites are as follows:
- High-efficiency deployment: There is no need to plan independent management IP addresses for remote sites, which saves the management IP address resources. Besides, pre-configuration for remote sites is not required. The remote sites, after being powered on, automatically register with the master subrack using the proprietary protocol.
- Fast integration: Remote sites are considered as the virtual service boards and managed by the OLT. They share the same MIB interface with the OLT. The OSS system integration is greatly simplified when new sites are added.
- Easy OAM: The remote sites and the main devices have a unified OAM user interface (UI), including the CLI and GUI. This relieves OAM engineers of learning OAM knowledge about new devices and saves the related costs.
High-Bandwidth Copper Access
New technologies, such as VDSL2 and vectoring, increase the bandwidth over the existing copper lines. This revives the cooper lines.
The bandwidth over copper lines can be boosted to about 50 Mbit/s by upgrading the existing ADSL2+ access network to VDSL2 access network. The 64-channel high-density VDSL2 board provided by Huawei can satisfy this application.
The bandwidth of VDSL2 lines on an FTTB/FTTC network can be boosted to about 100 Mbit/s by using the vectoring technology to eliminate the remote crosstalk of VDSL2 lines. In this way, copper lines can meet users' high-bandwidth requirement, as shown in Figure 1.
Seamless Migration for PSTN Networks
The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T provides access for various traditional services, enabling a PSTN network seamlessly evolve to an IP network.
The following advantages of the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T ensures the seamless evolution of a PSTN network (evolving from a PSTN to an IP network), as shown in Figure 1.
- Supports integrated fiber-copper access and provides access for voice, ISDN, xDSL, and xPON services in one subrack, achieving smooth network evolution.
- Provides access for various traditional services, including POTS, ISDN, TDM private-line (E1 and N x 64K), and PBX services, ensuring that live network services will not be lost during the evolution from the PSTN network to IP network and that CPEs do not need to be replaced.
- Supports the high-density combo board that implements ADSL2+ (or VDSL2), POTS, and SPL services in one board, which saves the main distribution frame (MDF) space and total cost of operation (TCO).
- Supports IMS- and SIP-oriented smooth evolution and IPTV services.
Triple Protection
The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T provides 3 protection mechanisms on the network side, access side, and device to ensure that services are not interrupted.
- OLT Network Side
On the network side, the OLT supports ring technologies, such as link aggregation, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), and Ethernet ring protection switching (ERPS), to ensure uninterrupted service running. Figure 1 shows the OLT network-side protection.
MSTP blocks redundant paths so that the loop network can be trimmed as a tree network to avoid proliferation and endless cycling of packets on the loop network. MSTP also enables redundant links to share load based on the VLAN.
ERPS ensures quick service restoration (service interruption time: ≤ 50 ms) during the interruption of an upstream physical link.
- OLT Access Side
On the access side, the OLT supports GPON type x protection, as shown in Figure 2.
- The OLT supports type B protection, providing 1+1 protection for GPON ports and backbone optical cables.
- The OLT supports type C protection, providing 2 PON ports to connect to the ONU and providing 1+1 protection for backbone optical cables, optical splitters, and distribution optical cables.
- OLT
The MA5600T and MA5603T support redundant backup of the control board, power board, and upstream board to improve device and service reliability. The MA5608T supports redundancy backup of the control board and DC power board.
Environment-Friendly and Energy-Saving
The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T complies with the European Union's (EU's) Code of Conduct (CoC) standard. The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T features the energy-saving design, optimizing power consumption, noise, and heat dissipation. This makes the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T an environment-friendly device and minimizes the total cost of operation (TCO).
The following presents the environment-friendly and energy-saving design of the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T.
- Uses the highest-density and highest-integration-level xDSL chipset in the industry, reducing the consumption of system resources.
- Uses the high-density board hardware design to improve port energy efficiency.
- Supports manual power-off of the board. (The faulty board in the equipment room of a site can be remotely powered off through the CLI or NMS.)
- Supports the delicacy board energy-saving features, as listed in the following:
- The idle ports of the control board are automatically powered off, and they will be automatically powered on and restore to the normal state if they are put into use.
- The idle boards can be automatically identified and powered off (or automatically enter the hibernation state). The idle boards can be automatically powered on/wakened up and restore to the normal state if they are put into use.
- The DSL user ports support Layer 2 low power consumption state and Layer 3 standby state.
- Supports automatic fan speed adjustment and stepless fan speed adjustment based on the component temperature.
Smooth Evolution from GPON to 10G GPON
By adding the WDM1r component, the MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T can be smoothly upgraded from GPON to 10G GPON.
Carriers can newly construct a 10G GPON network or upgrade a GPON network to a 10G GPON network, as shown in Figure 1. Specifically, the WDM1r component is added to the OLT so that GPON and 10G GPON signals can be transmitted over the same ODN in the multiplexing mode.
System Architecture
The MA5600T/MA5603T/MA5608T uses the system architecture containing three modules: M1, M2, and M3.- The M1 service port module provides various service access ports, such as PON, P2P, POTS, and xDSL service ports.
- The M2 core processing module implements CPU processing, Ethernet switching, and service processing.
- The M3 uplink port module transmits service flows upstream to network-side devices.
In the preceding figure:- The M1 service port module and M3 uplink port module connect to different boards. For details of working principles of each module, see board description in the Hardware Description.
- For details of service flow directions in the M1 service port module, see board working principles in the Hardware Description.
- The service flows processed by the M2 core processing module are classified into two types: One type of service flows are transmitted upstream after they are processed by the Ethernet switching module and the M3 uplink port module; the other type of service flows are transmitted upstream after they are processed by the Ethernet switching module, service processing module, and then Ethernet switching module again.
