The 1830 PSS Engineering and Planning Tool
Introductioon to 1830 PSS EPT
The 1830 PSS Engineering and Planning Tool (EPT) is a software tool for automated
design and planning of photonic networks based on the 1830 Photonic Service Switch
PSS portfolio of WDM products. The EPT is one key component of Nokia’s Zero Touch
Photonics networking innovation, which enables easier operations, accelerated
time-to-market and optimized total cost of ownership (TCO) of wavelength services.
The EPT runs on a windows-based platform and employs a graphical user interface (GUI)
to simplify the network design process. EPT integration with the 1830 PSS management
systems and WaveTracker OA&M support both initial system turn-up as well as
incremental network growth.
The 1830 Photonic Service Switch PSS-36 and PSS-64 are supported by Nokia 1390
Network Planning Tool (NPT). The Nokia 1390 NPT application provides integrated
planning and design capabilities for the Nokia 1830 PSS family equipment. Nokia 1390
NPT has the capability to plan across both the photonic and electrical layers. The
complete 1830 Photonic Service Switch PSS Engineering Planning Tool (EPT) is
embedded within the Nokia 1390 NPT. For further information on Nokia 1390 NTP, refer
to the latest Nokia 1390 Network Planning Tool (NPT) User Guide.
Note: The 1830 Engineering and Planning (EPT) tool should be used to design the
equipment and commissioning data for the network. It is important that traffic is
entered into the EPT design before the network design is complete and before the
commissioning file is created, as traffic type and amount affects choices such as
inclusion of the optional egress Line Driver, DCM Type, power targets for the
Software Control of Transmission (SCOT), and so on. In particular, factors such as
the type of Optical Transponder (OT), whether alien optics interfaces would be used,
and whether OPS protection is needed for demands in the future should be considered
at design time. New traffic designs can be added after the network is deployed, but
may require power adjustments, equipment additions, or equipment type changes.
Equipment additions and type changes may be service affecting.
Purpose of the 1830 PSS EPT
The EPT is used for network planning, design, installation and commissioning as
described in this section.
Network Planning (Customer Capacity Planning Organizations, Customer Route
Planners, Customer and Nokia Network Designers)
Introduction
The 1830 PSS Engineering and Planning Tool
Network Design:
• Design Optical Amplifiers, DCMs, ILAs, DGEs to meet the performance needs of the
network/demands/NEs
• Design Network Elements, filters, OTs, etc. based on demands and equipment
preferences specified
• Design/verify the Demand performance/reach and the need for regeneration on
demands
• Design/verify that specified failure scenarios in a GMPLS network can be restored
• Bill of Materials Report: Lists all parts needed: acronym, description, Nokia Part
Number (part number), and price (optional).
Network Installation
• Installation Report: Lists each pack-port to pack-port connection, the jumper type to
use, and any attenuators needed
Network Commissioning
• Calculates the target power, gain, tilt, and other information, and sends it to the NE in
the Commissioning File or Commissioning Report
• Sends the feasibility data that NE GMPLS uses for restoration routing
• Sends basic shelf/card/inter-pack connection provisioning, loss, and other information
to the NE
Supported Releases
Release 9.0 PSS-4, PSS-8, PSS-16, PSS-16II, PSS-24x and PSS-32 are supported in EPT
Release 9.0.
The EPT is synchronized with 1830 PSS generic releases; EPT designs apply to only the
matched 1830 PSS release. The feature set of the 1830 PSS is available for users within
the EPT design environment.

EPT Features in Release 9.0
PSS-24x Support including 2UC400-compatible, 4UC400-compatible and 130SCUPH-compatible
and 2UC400-compatible and 4UC400-compatible Support for FOADMs
• Support 1830 PSS-24x 10T Switched DWDM Shelf. These are switching shelves that
are not compatible with today’s 1830 I/O packs.
• From the NE’s perspective, the PSS-24x is a shelf that can be intermingled with other
shelf types (PSS8, 32, 16II and even 16). It can be located in the same rack as another
PSS-32 shelf, for example. 1390 NPT fully supports the 24X, including BOM,
equipment view, and rack placement.
• The PSS-24x shelves are only allowed as extensions to PSS-32 and PSS-16II master
shelves. In R9.0.1, EPT forbids a PSS-8 or a PSS-16 from being a master shelf. Shelf
reservations only apply for legal master shelves, the PSS-32 or PSS-16II.
• EPT does not show the PSS-24x in the Equipment View. The PSS-24x’s are entities
residing in separate rack(s).
• Support signals from the 2UC400-compatible and 4UC400-compatible on the
PSS-24x and the 130SCUPH on the PSS-64/-36. The PSS-24x shelf and the
130SCUPH also support signals from the D5X500.
• Allows 2UC400-compatible and 4UC400-compatible on FOADMs.
Some assumptions made for this feature:
–
PSS-24x shelf is treated by EPT as an OCS shelf, similar to how it handles the
PSS-36 and PSS-64. Management of the OCS shelves is the responsibility of 1390
NPT.
–
EPT currently allows the user to skip shelves, meaning that after the master shelf
(always shelf #1), the next sub-shelf could be #2 through #24, and it could be of
any type (PSS-8, 16, 16II or 32). So, in this example the PSS-24x could be shelf
#3 in the chain of shelves.
–
Shelf 1 may not be a PSS-24x. EPT does not allow the PSS-24x as a shelf 1 even
though the NE supports this.
–
1390 NPT provides the shelf and slot number of the uplink cards, which is needed
for EPT to put the connecting cables into the BOM and for the Installation Report.
• EPT restrictions:
–
EPT does not keep track of PDUs
–
Jumpers are all custom for the uplink cards
–
EPT does not keep track of attenuators. There are only 2 uplink cards from the
PSS-24x; neither need an attenuator.
–
EPT does not keep track of PSS-24x shelf covers or rack doors. No BOM support
(no fan, no power filters, and so on).
–
EPT does not handle the client cards or the switch
–
EPT does not change how it handles fiber storage trays
Introduction
EPT Features in Release 9.0
–
EPT does not change EC LAN cable handling
–
EPT does support the signals from the uplink cards (2UC400, 4UC400, and
130SCUPH), but EPT does not carry any other information about them like
placement in the PSS-24x shelf, except shelf/slot location.
D5X500 R9.0.1 Feature List
OTU4 Client Support
EPT R9.0.1 supports the following pluggables for the D5X500 for all OT modes:
• C4CLR4d: Supported in R8.2 for D5X500 (10505) client signal types: 100G LAN
PHY & OTM-0.4
• C4CLR4e: Previously supported on 260SCX2 only (11100 for D5X500 in R9.0.1)
client signal types:100G LAN PHY
Note: EPT supported OTU4 client signals in R8.2. The NE did not.
Note: NE supported C4CLR4e in R8.2. EPT did not.
The D5X500 does not support a mix of 100GbE and OTU4 client signal types in the
NE. This is not restricted in EPT R8.2.
EPT R9.0.1 continues to allow mixing of 100GbE and OTU4 clients on the same
D5X500 pack.
New Modulation Formats (QPSK and SPQPSK)
EPT supports two new modulation formats (OT Modes) for the D5X500 in R9.0.1:
• QPSK (Mode 3)
• SPQPSK (Mode 4)
Both modulation formats support only OTU4 line rates for a total line rate of 260G for the
OT. In R9.0.1, the modulation format used on the L1 and L2 ports are the same.
A new line type is supported in R9.0.1 for the D5X500. Line ports now support:
• OTU4x2 (used only for 8QAM, 16QAM, and 8QAM-SC)
• OTU4 (new – used only for QPSK and SPQPSK)
In R9.0.1, the line type used on the L1 and L2 ports are the same.
Client Port Mapping
The D5X500 in R9.0.1 support a fixed client port to line port mapping. When the port
type is set to OTU4x2, it sets up the following fixed transmission paths inside the card:
• Signals from client port C1 and client port C2 are sent to L1.
• Signals from client port C3 and client port C4 are sent to L2.
• Client port C5 is not used.
Introduction
EPT Features in Release 9.0
...
... Nokia 1830 PSS
When the port type is set to OTU4, it sets up the following fixed transmission paths inside
the card:
• The signal from client port C1 is sent to L1.
• The signal from client port C3 is sent to L2.
• Client ports C2, C4, and C5 are not used.
Protection, GMPLS, FEC
Protection types supported:
• Unprotected
• Diverse Path
• Dual Homed
• Y-Cable
• OPS Single Interface (GMPLS disabled, not Configurations D/D’/D”)
All D5X500 OT modes are supported in GMPLS networks in R9.0.1. All OT modes
support the SDFEC-G2 FEC type.
D5X500 PSS shelves
The NE supports the D5X500 in the following shelves:
• PSS-32
• PSS-16II
• PSS-8
All OT modes are supported in the 3 above shelf types. (EPT has supported all 3 shelf
types since R8.2).
Unidirectional Regeneration
Since the D5X500 has two line ports, unidirectional regeneration should be supported
with a single D5X500 OT.
The D5X500 may also be used as a 3R regeneration in GMPLS networks.
The regeneration can be any OT mode, but only support regeneration of signals using the
same OT mode.
Photonic Line Support on CDC-F and C-F
The D5X500 when configured with a modulation format of 8QAM,16QAM, QPSK or
SPQPSK support the following node configurations:
• CDC-F
• C-F (former AC-D-C)
• C-F Add/Drop Block as a separate NE connected to a WR8-88AF in a different site
EPT does not restrict the usage of the D5X500 with any modulation format in these
configurations.
Introduction
EPT Features in Release 9.0
Photonic line support on DFOADM, CWR8, WR8-88A/F, CWR8-88, Configurations
D/D’/D” and IROADMF/IROADMV
The D5X500, when configured with a modulation format of QPSK or 16QAM, supports
the following node configurations:
• 100GHz DFOADM
• CWR8
The D5X500, when configured with a modulation format of 8QAM,16QAM, QPSK or
SPQPSK, supports the following node configurations:
• IROADMF
• IROADMV
• Configurations D/D’/D”
• WR8-88A/WR8-88AF
• CWR8-88
Dispersion pre-compensation on the L1, L2 line ports
Not supported by EPT.
Cascade Configuration with 112SDX11
D5X500 supports a cascaded OT configuration with 112SDX11.
• D5X500 uses the C4CLR4d pluggable on its client port.
• 112SDX11 uses the C113G4Cd pluggable on its line port.
• This cascade support Unprotected, Diverse Path, and Dual Homed protection types.
• This cascade is supported in PSS-32, PSS-16II and PSS-8 shelf types. All D5X500
OT modes are supported.
• The 112SDX11 is supported in CDC-F nodes as a cascade.
Support for 44 Gbaud in 100GHz TOADMs and FOADMs
EPT limits the maximum number of SFD44s in cascade (i.e. in a path) to 8 for OTs that
support ADD3 and ADD2L in DFOADM nodes.
This includes:
• D5X500 8QAM and SPQPSK
• 2UC400 8QAM and SPQPSK
EPT supports these modulation formats in 100GHz TOADM and FOADM. EPT R8.2.2
supports 8QAM with 100GHz TOADM and FOADM.
For R9.0.1, both 8QAM and SPQPSK (44Gbaud) is supported for 100GHz FOADM and
TOADM, consistently with NE. The other modulation formats are 32Gbaud and they are
supported in 50GHz grid.
