9926 BBU introduction
Introduction
The 9926 BBU is designed to be connected to radio devices via optical fiber links.
It is factory-equipped with the following components:
• One eCCM-U module (slot 1)
• One eCEM-U module (slot 2)
• Two fillers (slot 3 and slot 4)
Depending on the capacity requirements, the 9926 BBU shelf can host two eCEM-U
modules in place of the two fillers (slot 3 and slot 4).
Optionally, the 9926 BBU can be equipped with the following components:
• One alarm module
• One Lighting Protection module (LPPCM or MLP)
Benefits
The Alcatel-Lucent Remote Radio solution improves flexibility for deploying mobile
broadband Node Bs in space-constrained locations. It is particularly suited to
macro-cellular applications in dense areas, where site acquisition is difficult, and on sites
where installation constraints prevent the use of legacy Node Bs.
Compared to legacy Node B site deployment, the Remote Radio solution provides the
following benefits:
• Reduced volume, weight, footprint, acoustic noise, and power consumption
• Reduced cost of feeder paths from the Node B to the antenna
• Increased RF power per carrier at the antenna feeder
• Reduced radio loss with use of the remote RF block concept, which eliminates the
distance between the radio amplifier and the antenna
The Remote Radio solution provides for the UMTS system:
• The means of communication between a User Equipment (UE) and a network using
Transport Channels
• Physical layer channels, which are necessary to synchronize the downlink and
perform cell selection/reselection and handover preparation
• Measurement information to the RNC for radio resource management (handover,
power control)
The 9926 BBU provides up to eight E1/T1 with Inversion Multiplexing ATM (IMA) or
Drop-and-Insert capability (fractional E1/T1). The 9926 BBU also supports multi-PCM
without IMA.

9926 BBU features and functions
Introduction
The 9926 BBU supports the following functions:
• Call processing
• Performance monitoring
• Network interface
• Configuration/supervision
• Synchronization
Call Processing (CallP)
The call processing function is in charge of the radio resource management inside the
Node B. This function manages the UMTS services (described in 3GPP standards) and
the internal services used for configuration and implementation purposes.
The call processing function is also in charge of:
• Common channel management, which includes setup, release, and modification
procedures
• Dedicated channel management, which includes setup, release, and modification
procedures
• Cell management, which includes setup, deletion, and modification of a cell
• Power control for controlling UE power emission
• Softer handover, in which a single Node B manages the cells in communication with
the UE
• Common Channels defense in case of CE (Channel Element) failure by relocating
them autonomously to the available CE resources (same board or another) without
involvement of the RNC.
Call processing is mapped on the eCCM-U and eCEM-U.
The Node B call processing supports the multiple eCEM-U. The multiple eCEM-U (or
multi-eCEM-U) enables to use several eCEM-U for call processing management.
Performance monitoring
The performance monitoring function is in charge of collecting performance
measurement data from the network interface function and from the
configuration/supervision function.
The measurement data is used to calculate and report performance data to the RNC for
traffic control and to the WMS for network operation and tuning.

Network interface
This function is in charge of managing interfaces with RNC.
The following network interfaces are supported:
• E1/T1 links with a layer 2 IMA machine handling up to four IMA groups, fractional
PCM (Drop-and-Insert capability), and redundancy management.
• Ethernet links
From LR13.1, 9926 BBU can be daisy-chained on the same Gigabit Ethernet backhaul
connection. For this it is necessary to use the eCCM-U-GE (with the GE MDA) using the
fiber optic SFP or built-in RJ45 ports.
Configuration/supervision
This function is in charge of:
• Module configuration and supervision
• Inventory information reporting
• Plug-and-play management
The remote inventory functionality provides the UMTS OAM access to determine the
inventory information of the Node B. The remote inventory is performed for the
following modules: eCEM-U, eCCM-U, fan tray and optional modules (alarm module,
lightning protection module).
Synchronization
This function is in charge of retrieving highly stable radio frequency from either network
interface or optional GPS receiver.
The 9926 BBU can be synchronized through the following means:
• E1/T1 PCM link (standard synchronization mechanism)
The E1/T1 link used for synchronization does not carry any data traffic.
• External GPS receiver
In the GPS-based synchronization solution, the eCCM-U module is connected to a
GPS smart antenna/receiver that provides GPS synchronization source (Pulse Per
Second (PPS) synchro input from the antenna).
• Integrated GPS receiver
Note: This synchronization mechanism is optionally available with the eCCM-U
module.
• IEEE 1588v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
The PTP-based synchronization solution relies on time servers connected to the 9926
BBU through the Ethernet network.
Note: This synchronization mechanism only applies to native IP Node B .
• Synchronous Ethernet

9926 BBU external interfaces
Introduction
The 9926 BBU is equipped with four main types of external interface:
• E1/T1 and/or IP network interface (Iub)
• Optical interface to radio devices
• Alarm/remote control interface (optional)
• Power supply interface (DC input)
Interface location
The following diagrams show the locations of the interfaces on the 9926 BBU.
The GE MDA provides three GE ports: two are optical using SFPs, the third is an
electrical GE interface. The SFP2 and electrical interface are, however, the same logical
port and so only one can be used.

The E1/T1 MDA provides four E1/T1 PCM Iub ports. Added to the four E1/T1 ports on
the eCCM-U card, this provides a total of eight E1/T1 PCM ports.
Network interface
The network interface Iub of the 9926 BBU can be either ATM based, hybrid or IP.
ATM-based Iub interface
The ATM-based Iub interface consists of eight E1 or T1 PCM links:
• E1 link complies with ITU G703/G704
• T1 link is based on the ANSI standard
The raw data rate between Node B and RNC can rise up to 15.872 Mbit/s (E1) or 12.288
Mbps (T1). Depending on the data flow, ATM AAL2 and AAL5 are used on the above
physical link through IMA. The IMA framing provides for physical link performance
monitoring and management.
In the case of a 120-ohm network, the only equipment needed to ensure the PCM
connection is the 120-ohm PCM cable.
In the case of a 75-ohm network, it is necessary to have baluns (two baluns per PCM) to
ensure adaptation from the 120 ohm of the Node B to the 75 ohm of the customer
network. Four types of baluns can be used: BNC, 1.6/5.6, SMZ type 43, or BNC to RJ-45.
Hybrid Iub interface
The Hybrid Iub interface consists of:
• ATM/PCM connectivity for R99, HSDPA, or HSUPA signaling and OAM traffic
• IP/Ethernet connectivity for HSPA traffic (HSDPA + HSUPA, or HSDPA only)

The Hybrid Iub interface requires the eCCM-U module in “eCCM-U-E1-4PCM” or
“eCCM-U-GE” hardware configuration.
The Hybrid Iub can use one of these options:
• Optical GE via one SFP GE port of the GE MDA
• Electrical GE via the RJ45 connector on the GE MDA
• FE via Port 2 of the eCCM-U
The native IP Iub interface requires the “eCCM-U-GE” hardware configuration.
Native IP Iub interface
The native IP Iub interface consists of a full IP/Ethernet transport on Iub interface. When
native IP Iub feature is deployed, the ATM/PCM connectivity is no longer used for the
Iub.
BTS daisy-chaining
From LR13.1, BTS daisy-chaining allows one GE link to serve a number of
Alcatel-Lucent base stations. The base stations can be multi-generation of 2G, 3G or 4G.
The number of base stations is limited to 1 Gb/s of the GE link, or by the capacity of the
switch in the most upstream base station of the chain.
When a base station A is located upstream in the daisy chain with respect to the position
of another base station B, it is called a ‘Chaining BTS’ or a ‘Dropping BTS’. BTS B is
called a ‘Chained BTS’ or a ‘Dropped BTS’.
In this system release the validated configurations are
• 3G chaining to 3G chained
• 3G chaining to 4G chained using IPV4
• 3G chaining to 4G chained using IPV6
• 3G chaining to 4G chained using IPV4 with IPSEC
A 9926 BBU can be used for daisy chaining once the software is upgraded in the 9926
BBU. The feature can be activated without the need to reset the dropping Node B to
activate the feature.
BTS daisy-chaining uses only the GE ports on the GE MDA on the eCCM-U-GE. Fiber
port SFP2 and the RJ45 port are internally connected and so cannot be use
simultaneously, so one of these ports is used in conjunction with the SFP1 fiber port.
The BTS daisy-chaining also carries time/clock synchronization using Synchronous
Ethernet protocol or IEEE 1588v2. The synchronization data may be generated by the
backhaul. Alternatively, any Node B in the chain can be configured to get synchronization
from an external synchronization source and propagate the synchronization data
downstream only via the daisy-chain. Note that only fiber SFPs and the RJ45 port can
propagate SyncE: copper SFPs do not support this feature.

75-ohm kit
Description
The PCM cables are connected to the customer DDF. This distribution frame is a
connection point between the PCM cable from the Node B and the transmission network.
For a 120-ohm telecommunication network, only the 120-ohm PCM cable is needed for
PCM connection.
For a 75-ohm telecommunication network, it is necessary to have baluns (two per PCM)
to ensure adaptation from the 120 ohm of the Node B to the 75 ohm of the customer
network. The 120/75 ohm adaptation baluns should be secured as close as possible to the
specific distribution frame. Four types of baluns can be used: BNC, 1.6/5.6, SMZ type 43,
or BNC to RJ-45.
The following figure shows the four types of baluns available.

Using the TIL tool
Introduction
The Local Installation Terminal (TIL) is an O&M onsite terminal. The TIL is used for the
installation, tests, and maintenance of the equipment described in this document.
TIL functions
The TIL provides the following functions:
• Displays the existing hardware of the equipment
• Automatically displays new hardware
• Basic maintenance and test capabilities for equipment modules
• Saves reports (including alarm, test reports) on a laptop
• Retrieves the hardware and software module configuration
• Configures commissioning parameters
TIL connection to the equipment
The TIL is connected to the CCM module through the Ethernet connection.
Two connection modes are available from the TIL:
• Peer-to-peer connection
In this mode, the TIL connection to the equipment depends on the CCM module type,
as described in the following table:
If the CCM module hosted in the
equipment is a...
Then the TIL is connected to the...
CCM/iCCM/iCCM-U/iCCM-2 Ethernet port 2 of the CCM module
xCCM/xCCM-U/eCCM-U Ethernet port 1 of the CCM module
• Remote connection
In this mode, the TIL is connected to a LAN/WAN network. This connection is
available only if the equipment is integrated in the UMTS network and active (not
locked).
The connection can be checked by doing a ping [IP address] command.
For more information, see Alcatel-Lucent 9100 and 93xx Node B – Commissioning and
Fault Management User Manual: TIL, NN-20500-019.
