    摘要: Inserting an address used for performing such OAM functions in an efficient way that is transparent to a customer or service using the network path is disclosed. An indication is received that a source address reserved for OAM use should be inserted into a forwarding database associated with a provider network node, such as a provider edge device, that receives the indication. The address is inserted into a forwarding database as an address that is owned by the provider network node and reserved for OAM use. One or more other nodes associated with a service with which the OAM address is associated may be notified that the OAM address is associated with the provider network node that owns the OAM address.

    摘要: An ejector assembly for securing a modular assembly in a chassis is disclosed. The ejector assembly comprises a cam rotatably mounted to the modular assembly such that the cam may be rotated about a first axis, the cam having a control member configured to extend into a recess in the chassis when the cam is rotated into a locked position and be retracted from the recess when the cam is rotated into a retracted position; and a lever rotatably mounted to the modular assembly such that the lever may be rotated about a second axis substantially parallel to the first axis, the lever being configured to cause the cam to be rotated about the first axis when a force is applied to the lever to rotate the lever about the second axis, whereby the cam may be rotated into either the locked position or the retracted position by operating the lever.

    摘要: A system and method for transporting IN/AIN signaling (e.g., SS7 signaling) over an IP-based network using Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP), wherein a peer-to-peer protocol adaptation (PPA) structure is provided at a signaling node. The PPA structure includes an interworking functionality between an MTP3 layer and the SCTP messaging, and operates to provide a symmetrical MTP2 adaptation interface therebetween. The PPA interface functionality facilitates the implementation of network management capabilities included in the MTP3 layer such that the advantageous features of SS7 signaling are retained in the SCTP transport. The MTP2 adaptation interface functionality is processed locally with respect to the signaling node, rather than backhauling the associated signaling to an external node via an IP connection. The PPA structure may be provided at any signaling node operable to establish a virtual link across an IP connection such as, for example, a signaling gateway, an IP-compliant SCP or STP, et cetera.

    摘要: A subscriber system (10) includes a dual network interface module (12). The dual network interface module (12) includes slots for a video unit (20) and a bandwidth unit (22). The video unit (20) receives broadcast information from a service provider (24) for ultimate display and viewing by a subscriber at the subscriber system (10). The bandwidth unit (22) provides an interface to a telecommunications network (30) through a telecommunications element (28). The dual network interface module (12) also includes an AC carrier modem (32) that receives and sends information to a processor device (34) over existing AC power lines within the subscriber system (10). In this manner, interactive interfacing of broadcast information received at the video unit (20) can be performed at the processor device (34) through the bandwidth unit (22) and over the telecommunications network (30) on a real time basis. The use of an existing subscriber link (26) and the AC power lines within the subscriber system (10) allows for a cost effective and efficient technique for providing interactive services to subscribers connected to an existing telephone backbone.

    摘要: A system and method for application location register routing at a signal transfer point (26) are provided. The signal transfer point (26) includes processor clusters (64, 66, 68) and databases (236, 238) for processing queries including global title translation, local number portability, and application location register routing. A query message is received by the signal transfer point (26), a first database residing in the signal transfer point (26) is accessed to determine the location of a second database (238) also residing in the signal transfer point for processing the query message. The second database (238) is then accessed to obtain the network address of a home location register or short message service center, which is then used to deliver the query message to the network node specified by the network address.

    摘要: A cell bus, which reduces the number of conductors required to transfer data in a telecommunications switching fabric, contains a plurality of conductors, Data[X:0], for transmitting information. A cell bus interface generates a cell bus frame that includes a plurality of words, "X" bits in length, of both data and control information that includes, in part, routing information for the data. As a result of encapsulating data and control information into and cell bus frame for transmission on the Data[X:0] conductors, the number of conductors required to transmit data is reduced. An asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switching fabric, which includes a plurality of cell buses configured in a point to point fashion between a cell routing unit (CRU)/ATM fiber bank interface unit (AFIU) and a plurality of optical line units (OLUs), is also disclosed.

    摘要: A method of communicating telecommunications services provisioning information in a telecommunication system includes establishing a connection between a user and a generic provisioning unit in a telecommunications node of a telecommunication system. The method also includes sending a provisioning message from the user to the generic provisioning unit that specifies a name of a database for provisioning and that also has a standard query language command associated with provisioning the database. The standard query language command specifies a name associated with a table in the database. The method also includes transmitting the information contained in the standard query language command to the database for provisioning of the table. The information is transmitted to the database according to a format understandable by the database.

    摘要: A telecommunication system (10) includes one or more subscribers (24) that provide telecommunication traffic in an upstream direction to a D4 channel bank (26). The D4 channel bank provides network interface signals having a first signaling protocol format to a cross-connect (18) over a telecommunication link (28). The cross-connect (18) includes a signaling protocol converter (30) that converts network interface signals having the first signaling protocol format into network interface signals with a second signaling protocol format. The cross-connect (18) passes the network interface signals with the second signaling protocol format to a local digital switch (20) over any of multiple telecommunication links (22a-22n). In a downstream direction from the local digital switch (20) to the subscribers (24), the signaling protocol converter (30) converts from the second signaling protocol format to the first signaling protocol format. In this manner, devices with differing signal protocol formats may communication with each other.
