TN17LSCT52 Is Huawei OSN 9800 LSC Board
LSC: 100 Gbit/s wavelength conversion board
The available functional versions of the LSC board are TN12, TN13, TN15, TN17, TN18, TN19.
The LSC boards of TN12 and TN13 versions use different front panels. The TN12LSC board occupies four slots, the TN13LSC/TN15LSC/TN17LSC board occupies two slots, the TN18LSC/TN19LSC board occupies one slot.
The LSC board is a wavelength conversion board and applies to coherent systems. In the receive direction, the board receives one 100GE/OTU4 optical signal from the client equipment, maps the optical signal into an OTU4 signal, and converts the OTU4 signal into a standard WDM wavelength.
The LSC board is mainly used to achieve wavelength tunable and to provide OTN interfaces and ESC.
The LSC board consists of the client-side optical module, WDM-side optical module, signal processing module, control and communication module, and power supply module.
The LSC board implements the regeneration of one channel of unidirectional optical signals. The wavelengths at the receive and transmit ends of the board are OTU4 optical signals at DWDM standard wavelengths that comply with ITU-T G.694.1.
The optical receiving module receives the optical signals to be regenerated through the IN interface, and performs O/E conversion.
The signal processing module performs decoding, overhead processing and encoding of signals. During the process, the reshaping, regenerating and retiming based on electrical signals are performed, and the signals are encapsulated into OTN frames.
After encoding, the signals are sent to an optical transmitting module. After performing E/O conversion, the module transmits OTU4 signals at DWDM standard wavelengths that comply with ITU-T G.694.1.
The optical signals are output through the OUT interface.
In the signal flow of the LSC board, the transmit and the receive directions are defined. The transmit direction is defined as the direction from the client side of the LSC to the WDM side of the LSC, and the receive direction is defined as the reverse direction.
The client-side optical module receives one channel of the optical signal from client equipment through the RX interface, and performs O/E conversion.
After performing the O/E conversion, the client-side optical module sends the electrical signal to the signal processing module. Then, the signal processing module performs encapsulation, OTN framing, and FEC encoding and outputs one channel of OTU4 signal to the WDM-side optical module.
After receiving the OTU4 signal, the WDM-side optical module performs E/O conversion, generates OTU4 signal at DWDM wavelength that complies with ITU-T G.694.1, and then outputs the OTU4 signal through the OUT optical interfaces.
The WDM-side optical module receives one channel of standard DWDM optical signal compliant with ITU-T G.694.1 through the IN optical interface. The WDM-side optical module then converts the OTU4 optical signal into electrical signal.
After the O/E conversion, the electrical signal is sent to the signal processing module, which performs OTU4 framing, FEC decoding, demapping, and decapsulation for the signal and then outputs one channel of the client-side electrical signal.
The channel of the client-side electrical signal is sent to the client-side optical module, which converts the electrical signal into optical signal and then outputs the optical signal through the TX optical interface.
There are indicators and interfaces on the front panel of the LSC board.
Four slots house one TN12LSC board, two slots house one TN13LSC/TN15LSC/TN17LSC, and one slot houses one TN18LSC/TN19LSC board.

FEC coding |
On the client side: Supports ITU-T G.709-compliant forward error correction (FEC) on the client side, only when the client side service type is OTU4. TN18LSC/TN19LSC board uses a converter to receive 100GE services, only RSFEC coding is supported. On the WDM side: The TN12LSC/TN13LSC board supports HFEC and SDFEC. The TN15LSC board supports HFEC and SDFEC2. The TN17LSC board supports SDFEC2. The TN18LSC board supports SDFEC2 and HFEC PLUS. The TN19LSC board supports SDFEC2. NOTE: Boards that use different FEC modes cannot interconnect with each other. |

Supports the remote monitoring (RMON) of Ethernet services.
NOTE: Only the TN12LSC board does not support the monitoring of BIP8 bytes on the client side. |

If OTN services are received on the client side, the board supports latency measurement for downstream and upstream TCM sections.
