1. System Introduction
MSAP2000 Technical Manual V3.0 1-4
Network
Management
System(NMS)
MSAP2000’s OptiCore
™, is a highly integrated and easy-to-use
Network Management System that employs user-friendly GUIs
(graphical User Interfaces) to provide a comprehensive set of
OAM&P (Operation, Maintenance and Performance Monitoring)
functions. With this system, the subscriber can remotely monitor,
configure and manage security settings. OptiCore
™ NMS can
generate different levels of alarm warnings, and even send alarm
messages to management personnel, based on different service
requirements. The ultimate goal of OptiCore
™ NMS is to lower
operation costs, and to help Service Providers efficiently manage
their network, by catering to their specific requirements and
needs.
Metallic Line
Testing Module
MSAP2000’s MLTM (Metallic Line Testing Module) can assist
installation and maintenance personnel to instantly confirm Loop
status and performance. MLTM can also connect to the COT
helpdesk for online troubleshooting, via public network or digital
leased lines. When the COT receives a request from the User
Helpdesk, it will test the Carrier System lines, and send the results
back to the Helpdesk. This can help Service Providers save on
cost and manpower for remote testing and maintenance.
Built-in Digital
Test Functions
MSAP2000 QE1M supports built-in digital testing functions
required by ITU-T O.150 and O.151, and will provide bit-error rate
testing for each digital channel. This function not only eliminates
the need for additional external testing equipment, it can also
ensure service quality.
Seamless Migration
MSAP2000 supports traditional A/B wire switch interface, V5.2
switch interface, and soft switch interface. The capability of
interfaces co-existing allows operator to re-orient part of the
physical voice paths from A/B wire to V5.2 switch or to soft switch.
It also supports to re-orient the co-existing A/B wire interface and
V5.2 interface to soft switch by software configuration. Operator
has no need to un-wrap the physical line and therefore save the
cost of migration from A/B wire to V5.2 to soft switch.
