MINI-LINK SP 110 ETSI
Ericsson’s cost efficient Multi Access Aggregation Node
MINI-LINK SP 110 is a Cost efficient and Compact
Mobile Backhaul Gateway that focuses on aggregating
Ethernet and TDM traffic from multiple generation
RBS’s. It can be used both in an optical packet network
and in a microwave network where it is a perfect
indoor unit for the outdoor packet radio MINI-LINK PT.
Ericsson is the market leading Mobile Broadband and
Mobile Backhaul supplier. Ericsson has provided half
of the worlds HSPA networks and Ericsson’s systems
handle 1.7 Billion mobile users all over the world.

MINI-LINK SP 110
the cost efficient Mobile backhaul gateway
rBS interface and demarcation point
As a Mobile Backhaul Gateway MINI-LINK SP 110 is
located at the edge of the Mobile transport network
interfacing directly to the Radio Base Stations. It provides
backhaul transmission for existing and future
bandwidth demanding mobile broadband services.
MINI-LINk SP 110 is a Cost efficient end node or
small hub in optical networks.
It is easy to install and configure. It aggregates Ethernet
traffic from local sites with 8 Gbps full duplex,
non-blocking, switching capacity. TDM traffic is handled
by use of Circuit emulation, and Traffic protection
can be done by use of e.g. LAG, ERP or RSTP/MSTP.
E2e management is done with ServiceOn, a common
management system for all Ericsson transmission
products. Ethernet Service OAM is available for
error-tracing and supervision. MINI-LINK SP supports
multi-vendor environment

SP 110
MINI-LINK SP 110 provides E1 emulation at the backhaul
interface for 2G networks and Fast Ethernet/
Gigabit Ethernet for 3G/ 4G backhaul. It also provides
multiple sync input/output options for maximum
synchronization solution flexibility. The backhaul
service is supported by MEF-defined Ethernet virtual
connections: point-to-point E-Line and multipoint-tomultipoint
E-LAN services.
As a circuit emulation gateway, MINI-LINK SP 110
incorporates the latest CESoPSN and SAToP standards.
When acting as a demarcation device,
MINI-LINK SP 110 supports the expected UNI functionality
as well as Ethernet Service OAM. The device
enables the separation of different network segments
as well as different business responsibility areas.

SP 110
MINI-LINk SP is the compact indoor unit for the
outdoor packet microwave terminal MINI-LINk Pt.
The combination offers a number of carrier grade
functions; up to 1 Gbps microwave capacity per link,
Multiple Ethernet ports, aggregation of traffic from
south-bound and local sites, local access to DCN
without disturbing traffic, TDM support via Circuit
Emulation Services and Ethernet Service OAM.
Up to four MINI-LINK PT radios can be used per
MINI-LINK SP 110.

Ethernet switching
The integrated non blocking Gigabit Ethernet switch
(IEEE 802.1Q and 802.1ad compliant) has a switching
capacity of 8 Gbps Full duplex, 16 Gbps Half duplex.
Ethernet Protection
MINI-LINK SP 110 offers multiple protection options
like LAG (802.1AX Link Aggregation),
Ethernet Ring Protection (ITU G.8032v2) and
RSTP/MSTP.
Quality of Service
Service differentiation (802.1 p-bits) and traffic separation
(VLAN) together with 8 priority queues and
traffic scheduling makes MINI-LINK SP 110 prepared
for diverse QoS configurations. The QoS is Ethernet,
IP and MPLS aware.
MINI-LINK SP 110 provides Carrier Grade QoS functions
like SPQ, WFQ, WRED and Policing.
Both ingress and egress Policing are available for
configuring Service Levels that enable network carriers
to provide end-to-end guaranteed bandwidth and
service level agreements.
Connection-oriented logical flows can be established
with MEF 10.1 defined Service Attributes: Committed
Information Rate (CIR), Committed Burst Size (CBS),
Excess Information Rate (EIR), and Excess Burst Rate
(EBS). The attributes are configurable per flow.
Virtual LAN (VLAN)
MINI-LINK SP 110 supports VLAN tagging (IEEE
802.1Q) and Provider Bridge (802.1ad).
Ethernet OAM
As part of end-to-end network solutions,
MINI-LINK SP 110 complies to Link OAM (IEEE
802.3ah) and Ethernet OAM (IEEE802.1ag); together
with Ethernet PM (ITU-T Y.1731).
Circuit Emulation Service
MINI-LINK SP 110 provides circuit emulation services
for legacy E1 TDM interfaces.
The SAToP (Structure Agnostic TDM over Packet)
emulation method disregards any structure that may
be imposed on the data stream; e.g. the standard
framing as defined in ITU-T G.704. The emulation
endpoints do not interpret the TDM structure nor
participate in the TDM signaling.
The CESoPSN (Circuit Emulation Service over
Packet Switched Network) emulation is a structure
aware Pseudowire encapsulation method. The ITU-T
G.704 TDM structure can be identified, and recreated
at the remote end.
MINI-LINK SP 110 is hence well equipped to cater for
the needs of different network technologies and CES
head-end requirements.
Clock Synchronization
MINI-LINK SP 110 has a comprehensive range of synchronization
possibilities. This makes it prepared for a
variety of synchronization scenarios.
The Gateway allows different clock sources:
• Synchronous Ethernet, (ITU-T G.8261/
G.8262/G.8264)
• Precision Time Protocol, PTP, (IEEE 1588v2 client)
• Adaptive clock recovery based on the RTP packet
stream from the Packet Switched Network (PSN).
• E1 Line clock
• Local clock
MINI-LINK SP 110 furthermore provides a separate
2 MHz clock input and output sync port, as well as a
sync port dedicated for TDD base station sync requirements,
such as Time Of Day (TOD) and 1pps input.
Alarm Interface
The alarm interface of the MINI-LINK SP 110 provides
four user inputs together with two user outputs.
Management
Management is handled by ServiceOn EM.
Local management can be performed by either using
the Local Craft Tool (LCT) or a Command Line Interface
(CLI).
Cooling
MINI-LINK SP 110 comes with a front-mounted fan unit.
The fan unit can be replaced without traffic interruption.
Power
Power is supplied by -48 VDC through dual fuse
protected power inlets.
Subrack solutions
MINI-LINK SP 110 is ready for wall-mounting or
installation in 19”/ETSI racks.
MINI-LINK SP 110 is
ready for deployment
in all wireless mobile
network Generations,
2G, 3G and 4G!
