191Fig. 15Control unit with microprocessorThe basic pr<strong>in</strong>ciple of the tr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexerasregards alarms is that it shouldbehave as a PCM multiplexer towardsthe TDM side <strong>an</strong>d as a carrier systemtowards the FDM side. There are certa<strong>in</strong>extra features, however, such as thetr<strong>an</strong>smission of the AIS (Alarm IndicationSignal)Fault-clear<strong>in</strong>g ma<strong>in</strong>ten<strong>an</strong>ce consists ofch<strong>an</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g faulty pr<strong>in</strong>ted board assemblies,<strong>an</strong>d a suitably dimensioned stockof spare parts must therefore be available.The conventional structure ofEricssons tr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexers me<strong>an</strong>sthat m<strong>an</strong>y of the boards are also used <strong>in</strong>other Ericsson multiplex equipments,so the stock of spares c<strong>an</strong> be shared,with a consequent reduction <strong>in</strong> ma<strong>in</strong>ten<strong>an</strong>cecosts.System structureThe description above applies <strong>in</strong> the relev<strong>an</strong>tparts for all Ericsson tr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexers.The mech<strong>an</strong>ical construction<strong>an</strong>d functional design of three differentequipments are described separatelybelow.ZAJ 2x30/60The tr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexer for 60 ch<strong>an</strong>nels.ZAJ2x30/60, fig. 12, converts two2048kbit/s PCM streams to a st<strong>an</strong>dardizedbasic supergroup <strong>in</strong> the frequencyb<strong>an</strong>d 312-552 kHz <strong>an</strong>d vice versaThe equipment is built up us<strong>in</strong>g Ericsson'sBYB construction practice. Allequipment for the tr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexer ismounted <strong>in</strong> a pre-wired triple magaz<strong>in</strong>ehav<strong>in</strong>g a width of 12 build<strong>in</strong>g modules(488 mm) <strong>an</strong>d a height of 18 build<strong>in</strong>gmodules (732mm). The magaz<strong>in</strong>e is <strong>an</strong><strong>in</strong>dependent unit which also conta<strong>in</strong>stwo d.c./d.c. converters. The magaz<strong>in</strong>ec<strong>an</strong> be mounted <strong>in</strong> M5/BYB bays 2 , <strong>in</strong>BYB rows or <strong>in</strong> a BYB cab<strong>in</strong>ets. All cabl<strong>in</strong>gis accessible from the front. An M5/BYB bay c<strong>an</strong> be equipped with threetr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexers, fig. 13.As far as possible the tr<strong>an</strong>smultiplexerhas been built up of the same parts asEricsson's other multiplexer systems.The functional structure is shown <strong>in</strong>fig 14. The TDM part conta<strong>in</strong>s two identicalPCM units. These subsystems conta<strong>in</strong>well-tried system componentswhich also form part of AXE <strong>10</strong> as well asseparate PCM equipments 3 . The FDMpart conta<strong>in</strong>s units from Ericsson's FDMsystems 4 . The cont<strong>in</strong>uous technical developmentalso affects the FDM field.For example, hybrid type thick film circuitshave been replaced by monolithiccircuits <strong>in</strong> the signall<strong>in</strong>g circuits, whichme<strong>an</strong>s that it has been possible to reducethe number of <strong>in</strong>tegrated circuitsby a third on the send side <strong>an</strong>d by half onthe receive side. The necessary carrier<strong>an</strong>d signall<strong>in</strong>g frequencies are generated<strong>in</strong>ternally with the aid of phaselocked oscillators, which are controlledby <strong>an</strong> <strong>in</strong>com<strong>in</strong>g basic frequence of 12 or124kHz The group pilot frequencies,84.08 or <strong>10</strong>4.08 kHz, c<strong>an</strong> either be generated<strong>in</strong>ternally or obta<strong>in</strong>ed from <strong>an</strong> externalsource. The supergroup pilot frequency,411.92 or 547.92 kHz, is obta<strong>in</strong>edfrom <strong>an</strong> external source.
