Octal LAN 10/100Base-TX Module with Mapper, E100-WAN-8
21.1 Module Description
The module is a tributary module that supports both optical and electrical Ethernet interfaces, see Figure 21-1. The module contains 8 LAN Ethernet interfaces that support both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX according to the IEEE 802.3 specification. The interface supports both the half-duplex and the full-duplex modes.
The physical interface is RJ-45connectors. Every interface has two LED's, one LED indicates the link status and the other LED indicates the link speed. The module includes up to sixteen Ethernet to SDH mappers.
The module support both L1 and L2 services. It consists of the following functionality:
•Ethernet features
•SDH features
•Optical interfaces
•Electrical interfaces
•LED indicators
•Inventory EEPROM
•Local power supply
•Back plane interfaces

21.1.1 Ethernet Features
The module supports both L1 and L2 services. The number of physical interfaces is eight. They can be independent configured as electrical 10/100 Base-TX.
The policer performs the following functions:
•Q in Q tunnelling of data
•L2 control protocol tunneling
•Internal connection between the physical interfaces, mapper and Ethernet switch
The module includes two Ethernet switches of which one is directly connected to the mapper. This switch and mapper provides eight mappers that can be used in a L2 solution.
The other Ethernet switch is connected to the policer. The mapper and physical interfaces are also connected to the policer.
The following options are available in the policer:
•A physical interface can be connected to the mapper, via the policer, for a L1 service
•A physical interface can be connected to the Ethernet switch, via the policer, for a L2 service
•The port of the Ethernet switch can be connected to the mapper, via the policer, for an additional mapper.
Sixteen mappers are available if none of the physical interfaces are used.
21.1.2 SDH Features
The tributary module includes the following SDH functionality:
GFP-F encapsulation of Ethernet traffic
•Support of Virtual Concatenation with VC-12-nV, where n=1.50, VC-4-nV, where n=1 and VC-3-nV, where n=1.3
•Support for up to 16 independent mappers
•Support for LCAS
•AU4, TU-12/3 pointer interpretation/ generation and VC-12/4/3 termination
•Alarm processing
21.1.3 Electrical Interfaces
The module supports up to eight electrical Ethernet interfaces. The interfaces support both 10 Base-T and 100 Base-TX.
21.1.4 LED Indicators
Visual indicators (LED's) provide the status of the module.
21.2 Configuration
In addition to the physical interfaces the module contains two 8 port Ethernet switches, connected together via the internal G-link interface towards the crossbar, and two 8 port mapper circuits. The module is configurable into two main operation modes:
•Grooming mode
•Normal mode
21.2.1 Grooming Mode (2xFE + SMAP)
In this operation mode physical port 1 and 2 (LAN ports) are connected to the Ethernet switch, physical port 3-8 is unused. The 14 remaining Ethernet switch ports (WAN ports are connected to the mapper circuits; two mapper circuits are left unconnected. In this configuration the module is intended for grooming of traffic from a large number of remotely located devices.
21.2.2 Normal Mode (8xFE +SMAP)
In this operation mode 8 of the Ethernet switch ports are connected to 8 mapper ports (WAN ports). The 8 physical interfaces can independently be configured to operate as a L1 port (LAN port), directly connected to one of the 8 mapper ports, or as a L2 port (LAN port), connected to one of the 8 Ethernet switch ports.
The mapper circuits supports the mapping functionality described in 5.2 Ethernet over SDH mapping, page 5-17.
The LAN and WAN ports offers the IP functionality described in 5.4 IP Features, page 5-24.
21.3 Power Consumption
The power consumption is 27,5 W.
Note Please see 2.6 Limitations - Module Configurations, page 2-9
21.4 External Interface
The following sub-sections describes the external interface.
21.4.1 Description
