IPCLK1000
When some equipment in an IP network is unable to extract IP clock packets, the IPCLK1000
can also serve as the IP clock client on that equipment side.
Unless otherwise stated, this document assumes that the IPCLK1000 acts as the IP clock server.
The communication between the IPCLK1000 and the NodeB does not have specific requirement on the
network security.
The IPCLK1000 can use its built-in satellite card to obtain synchronization clock signals.
z Auto: Based on the priorities of the clock sources, the IPCLK1000 automatically selects
the clock signals imported to a specific port as the clock source input. If the clock source
is faulty, the IPCLK1000 then automatically switches to the clock source that takes
priority over any other available clock source.

The GE optical ports and the FE port for services cannot be used at the same time. The IPCLK1000 can
use only one of the two types to send IP packets at a time.
Delay < 60 ms
Delay variation < 20 ms
Packet loss rate < 1%
Bandwidth Requirements
Typically, each IP clock client requires 30 kbit/s bandwidth for transmission of clock packets.
In a poor network environment, each client needs to increase the packet transmission
frequency, thus requiring a maximum of 50 kbit/s bandwidth.
The IPCLK1000 has relatively low security guarantee. To enhance the security and reliability of the
IPCLK1000 that accesses a network, you need to configure an external firewall.
The IPCLK1000 is installed on the RNC side. It provides timing services for the NodeBs
through its service FE port or GE optical ports.
z Connections between the OM equipment and the IPCLK1000
The LMT and M2000 perform OM for the IPCLK1000 through the OM FE port on the
IPCLK1000.
z VLANs are not necessarily configured in a layer 2 private network. The purpose of setting VLANs
is to enhance security.
z If VLANs are applied to the network, the IPCLK1000 and the NodeBs must be grouped in the same
VLAN.
z The service FE port or GE optical port is connected to the Internet through a public network IP address,
and the OM FE port is connected to the equipment in the mobile network through a mobile network IP
address.
z The service port of the IPCLK1000 needs the protection from the firewall.
Safety Compliance
The IPCLK1000 meets the safety specifications in the following standards:
z GB4943
z IEC60950
z CAN/CSA-C22.2 No 950-95
z UL 1950
CE Certification
The IPCLK1000 meets the CE certification requirements in the following standards:
z 73/23/EEC
z 93/68/EEC

Section Describes
Physically, the IPCLK1000 is a case into which the module and boards are integrated. All the
ports are located on its front panel.
Figure 2-1 takes AC power module for example.The actual power port used on site may vary, depending on
the site situation.
The main components in the IPCLK1000 case are the main board, the power module, the
satellite card, and three fans. Table 2-1 describes the functions and configuration quantities of
the components.
The actual power port used on site may vary, depending on the site situation.
The boards and other parts inside the IPCLK1000 are invisible for the user. Therefore, the subsequent
description does not cover the internal boards, which are regarded as a whole.

Service Ports
The IPCLK1000 supports two types of port for services: GE optical port and FE port. The two
types of port are applicable to different scenarios.
z The GE optical port is applicable to the situation where the field network uses only the
optical port or where the field network uses both the FE port and the GE optical port but
there are more than 1,000 clients.
z The FE port is applicable to the situation where the field network uses only the FE port
or where the field network uses both the FE port and the GE optical port but there are
fewer than 1,000 clients.
When the IPCLK1000 uses the GE optical ports, the optical module is required. This optical module is
pluggable. You can replace it on site. For details about how to replace the optical module, refer to
section 5.3.2 "Replacing the Optical Module."

Commissioning
When the IPCLK1000 is placed on a desk in a room, the IPCLK1000 has only simple requirements that
the room should be equipped with an air conditioner and cable racks. Therefore, this document does not
describe the requirements of the IPCLK1000 that is placed on an indoor desk.
When the IPCLK1000 is installed in a cabinet or 19-inch rack, the requirement is that the
IPCLK1000 does not affect the ventilation of other devices in the cabinet or rack. Figure 3-1
shows the typical space requirements of the IPCLK1000.

Section Describes
4.1 Preparing for the Interconnection Preparations before the interconnection between
the IPCLK1000 and an IP clock client.
4.2 Performing Operations at the IP Operations to be performed on the IP clock server
Clock Server side.
4.3 Performing Operations at the IP Operations to be performed on the IP clock client
Clock Client side.
4.4 Verifying the Interconnection Procedure for verifying the interconnection.
If an IPCLK1000 works as the peer client, you need to set the peer client type to NodeB/BTS at the
server.
At a time, either the service FE port or the GE optical port, not both, is available for interconnection. For
details about how to install the cable, refer to section 3.3.3 "Installing Cables."
Before you perform each step, you can use the associated query command to check the default settings
of the IPCLK1000. The only difference between the query command and the command used in a step is
that the query command begins with LST while the command used in the step begins with ADD or SET.
If the queried settings are consistent with the required settings, that step is unnecessary.
After you run the SET WORKSTATUS, SET CLIENTMODE, or SET ETHPORT
command, you need to reset the IPCLK1000 to validate the configuration.
----End
The host software of the IPCLK1000 in Slave mode does not have to be upgraded. That is because the
host software already supports the client functionality.
Data Configuration
Configure the service IP address of the IPCLK1000 and the route on the IP clock client, so as
to ensure that the client can be connected to the server.
Physical Connection
Connect one end of the service cable to the service FE port on the panel of the IPCLK1000 in
Slave mode, and connect the other end to the network.
If the IPCLK1000 is in Slave mode, only the service FE port can be used as the service port.
In addition, connect the port labeled OUT-CLK on the panel of the IPCLK1000 to the input
clock port on the device that the IPCLK1000 serves.
Data Configuration
One IP clock client can be connected to a maximum of two IPCLK1000 servers at the same
time. Typically, the IP clock client is connected two IPCLK1000 servers for the sake of
redundancy. If one of the two IP clock servers becomes faulty, the IP clock client turns to the
other server for source clock.
Before you perform each step, you can use the associated query command to check the default settings
of the IPCLK1000. The only difference between the query command and the command used in a step is
that the query command begins with LST while the command used in the step begins with ADD or SET.
If the queried settings are consistent with the required settings, that step is unnecessary.
Step 2 On the MML client, run the ADD CLTCLKSRC command to add the IP address of the clock
server to the client. For redundancy, you can add the IP addresses of two servers to one client
in this step.
Step 3 (Optional; required when the IP clock server and the IP clock client are located on different
network segments) On the MML client, run the ADD IPRT command to configure a route for
the service port, through which the client is connected to the IPCLK1000 server.
Step 4 Set the output clock frequency as required. For details, refer to section 3.6.6 "Reconfiguring
the GPS Data."
After you run the SET WORKSTATUS command, you need to reset the IPCLK1000 to
validate the configuration.
----End

LINKTRANSSTATISTIC command to start a packet analysis and run the STP
LINKTRANSSTATISTIC command to stop the analysis.
Step 3 If the IP clock client is a NodeB, a BTS, or an AP, run the associated command on the clock
client side to check the packet reception statistics.
For details about the command to be run at the clock client, refer to the associated MML help.
----End
Step 1 Run the MML command LST CLINETINFO to check whether the client works properly.
Step 4 Run the LST SRVCLKSRC command to check the received clock packets.
Run the STR LINKTRANSSTATISTICPUB command to start collecting the statistics of the sent and
received packets before you run the DSP LINKTRANSSTATISTICPUB command.
Step 5 (Optional) You can query the detailed information about the sent and received clock packets
as follows. Log in to the LMT. On the Maintenance tab page, choose Service > Trace
Management > Interface Trace Task > IPCLK_TRACE to start the tracing of the IPCLK
messages. The tracing result is displayed in the right pane.
Step 6 If the IP clock client is a NodeB, a BTS, or an AP, run the corresponding command at the
client side to check the packet reception statistics. For details, see the relevant descriptions in
the MML help.
