Preface1

OBSAI Specification documents are developed within the Technical Working Groups 2of the Open Base Station Architecture Initiative Special Interest Group (OBSAI SIG). 3Members of the OBSAI TWG serve voluntarily and without compensation. The 4specifications developed within OBSAI represent a consensus of the broad expertise 5on the subject within the OBSAI SIG.6

Use of an OBSAI Specification is wholly voluntary. The existence of an OBSAI 7Specification does not imply that there are no other ways to produce, test, measure, 8purchase, market, or provide other goods and services related to the scope of the 9OBSAI Specification. Furthermore, the viewpoint expressed at the time a 10specification is approved and issued is subject to change brought about through 11developments in the state of the art and comments received from users of the 12specification. Every OBSAI Specification is subjected to review in accordance with 13the Open Base Station Architecture Initiative Rules And Procedures.14

Implementation of all or part of an OBSAI Specification may require licenses under 15third party intellectual property rights, including without limitation, patent rights (such a 16third party may or may not be an OBSAI Member). The Promoters of the OBSAI 17Specification are not responsible and shall not be held responsible in any manner for 18identifying or failing to identify any or all such third party intellectual property rights.19

Users are cautioned to check to determine that they have the latest edition of any 5OBSAI Specification. 6

Interpretations: Occasionally questions may arise regarding the meaning of portions of 7standards as they relate to specific applications. When the need for interpretations is 8brought to the attention of OBSAI, the OBSAI TWG will initiate action to prepare 9appropriate responses. Since OBSAI Specifications represent a consensus of OBSAI 10Member’s interests, it is important to ensure that any interpretation has also received 11the concurrence of a balance of interests. For this reason OBSAI and the members of 12its Technical Working Groups are not able to provide an instant response to 13interpretation requests except in those cases where the matter has previously 14received formal consideration. 15

This document specifies the base transceiver system (BTS) internal interfaces (i.e., System 3Interfaces) of the OBSAI Clock and Control Module (CCM). It defines the CCM’s physical 4implementation of OBSAI reference point RP1 and the required interconnection scheme to 5other BTS modules as illustrated in Figure 2-1 below.6

3 General1

This specification focuses on the physical interface requirements of the CCM. The 2actual BTS and CCM designs are out of the scope of this document. Guidelines for 3implementation are given where appropriate.4

3.1 Topology and Dimensioning Requirements5

The BTS internal interface provided by the CCM supports the following functions:6

� Internal Networking functions via RP17

� Synchronization functions via RP18

Internal Networking functions are based on LAN concepts using Ethernet as the 9Layer 2 protocol. Each module in the shelf has a dedicated link to the fabric. 10

The CCM distributes system clocks and synchronization bursts to other modules in 11one shelf using a star topology.12

Clock and Control Module redundancy is supported optionally by a second CCM, 13forming the center of a second clock and synchronization network (double star 14topology). See section 4.2.3 for details on redundancy.15

The CCM optionally supports shelf extension, with a point-to-point connection to a 16clock and synchronization network in a second shelf. See the OBSAI RP2 17Specification [OBSAI RP2] for details on shelf extension.18

3.2 Hot Insertion and Removal19

All signals shall support hot insertion and removal. Hot insertion is supported on the 20module by delayed (insertion) and early (removal) switch on/off of the power supply 21by means of a last mating enable pin at the power connector. Every source and sink 22of a signal shall survive without any damage, if the connected signal is within its 23specified operating voltage range.24

3.3 Signal Naming Conventions1

All signal names start with a 2-4-letter abbreviation that describes the general 2function of the signal group. 3

Table 3-1 CCM Signal Abbreviations5

The signal name abbreviation is followed by a numerical index to distinguish between 6instances of a signal inside a signal group. The index starts with the value “0”.7

Additionally a direction indication is attached for signal groups with receive (_RX), 8transmit (_TX), or bidirectional (_BI) signals, if there is a need to distinguish between 9them. The direction is derived from the physical characteristics at the module 10boundary. The direction of signals not explicitly indicated by the signal name is 11specified in the signal list (section 4.1), or left unspecified intentionally.12

3.4 Connector Naming and Orientation1

Definitions:2

� Female connectors use the reference designator prefix J3

� Male connectors use the reference designator prefix P4

� Mechanical guiding pins use the reference designator prefix G5

� Mechanical guiding holes use the reference designator prefix H6

A numerical index follows the designator prefix. 7

The following rule applies to the module:8

Prefix [Module Index]

9

This concept also applies to the backplane connectors. Although this is not within the 10scope of this specification, it is nevertheless recommended to follow this guidance. In 11addition to the module index, the backplane has a slot index, which references the 12slot position. 13

The following rule applies to the backplane:14

4.2 Signal Specification1

This chapter specifies the CCM interface signals at the CCM boundary. The data and 2power connector signals are differentiated in 4 groups:3

� Common Signals4

� CCM Specific Signals5

� CCM Unspecified Signals6

� Power7

If necessary, additional requirements for the implementation are given in the relevant 8signal subchapter.9

4.2.1 Common Signals10

Common signals are common to all modules and shall be supported. Common 11Signals are assigned to fixed pin positions within the data connector J1, which is 12present in all modules. Since the CCM sources the System Clocks and 13Synchronization Signals to other modules, these are not included in the Common 14signal group of the CCM.15

4.2.1.1 Module and Shelf address16

The module (MA[0..4]) and shelf address signals (SA[0..2]) are used to give the 17module a unique hardwired address related to the shelf and slot position of the 18module. 19

The CCM shall pull the address pins up. An address bit logic one is indicated by 20leaving the address pin unconnected on the backplane. A logic zero is indicated 21through connecting the respective pin to logic ground on the backplane. The address 22signals are static.23

4.2.1.2 Ethernet Fabric Ports24

The common fabric ports 0 and 1 are available on every module in the shelf. On the 25CCM module these ports are Fast Ethernet [100Base-TX] according to [IEEE 802.3]26clause 25.27

4.2.2 CCM Specific Signals28

CCM specific signals are specific to the CCM and shall be supported. CCM specific 29signals are assigned to fixed pin positions at the data connector J1.30

Redundancy Signals form a link between two peer CCM's. They comprise 2Redundancy Control Signals (RC[0..3], RD[0..3]) and Redundancy Communication 3Link Signals (RA+/-, RB+/-). If redundancy is supported, the interconnection scheme 4shown in Figure 4-2 shall be applied.5

It is expected that modules in a redundant pair are from the same type and vendor. 6Therefore, the functional and timing characteristics of the Redundancy Signals are 7not specified. 8

In the CCM power-down state, the Redundancy Control Signals shall be in a high 11impedance state.12

Module Type Unspecified Signals: Module Type Unspecified Signals 1are optional. Their functional and electrical characteristics are not 2specified. If present, Module Type Unspecified Signals shall be 3assigned to a range of pin positions within the Data Connector(s). The 4range of pin positions shall be fixed for a certain module type, but may 5differ between module types.6

Signal Group: A group of signals forming a functional entity e.g. a 7fabric port.8
