The alarm is issued when no ATM cells are received in the ete ATM (end to end ATM) cell flow of the Virtual Circuit (VC) for 2.5 ±0.5 s.
remote
An alarm is issued when the Message Transfer Part level 3 (MTP3) detects a faulty MTP3b signalling li nk. The fault can be permanent or temporary. The possible causes are as foll ows: a transmission fault a process or processor restart in this node a faulty ET board a fault in the adjacent signalling node
remote and/or field
event, not a fault The alarm is issued if the Ethernet switch port is becoming overloaded. The load is 80% or more of the maximum allowed load. The alarm remains as long as the port is overloaded and ceases automatically when the load decreases. If the Ethernet switch port becomes more overloaded, this alarm is replaced by the alarm, Ethernet Switch Port Overload. Causes: Maintenance of Ethernet switches. Fault in the network. Under-dimensioning

remote
remote and/or field
The alarm is issued if the Ethernet Switch detects a "port fault" condition. The operational state of the port is changed to DISABLED. The alarm remains as long as the port is faulty. Normally, the fault must be attended to on site. Causes: Link Down
remote and/or field
EWS event, not a fault The alarm is issued when an ete Alarm Indication Signal (end-to-end AIS) cell is received in the F5 Operation and Maintenance (O&M) flow of the Virtual Circuit VC . The alarm is issued if the Ethernet switch port is overloaded. The load is 100% or more of the maximum allowed load. The alarm remains as long as the port is overloaded and ceases automatically when the load decreases. If the Ethernet switch port load decreases, this alarm is replaced by the alarm, Ethernet Switch Port Congestion.

An alarm is issued when the Message Transfer Part level 3 (MTP3) detects a faulty M3UA Association. The fault can be permanent or temporary. The possible causes are as f ollows:
remote
a transmission fault a process or processor restart in this node a faulty General Purpose processor Board (GPB)
The alarm is issued when a specified number of the consecutive bad seconds has been detected. A second is defined as "bad" if the detected percentage of the block errors is equal to, or greater than, the specified percentage. The values of the bad seconds (vcDegM attribute in the MO, Vc4Ttp) and errored blocks ( vcDegThreshold attribute in the MO, Vc4Ttp) can be specified. The default values are 7 seconds and 30%, respectively. The alarm indicates that the VC4 (Virtual Channel) path through the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) transport network is affected by bit errors.

Invalid downlink code configuration The alarm is generated when the C2 byte received in Virtual Container 4 Path Overhead (VC4 POH) contains the pattern “00000000” in five consecutive frames.

The alarm is generated when an Multiplexer Section Alarm Indication Signal (MS AIS) is detected in the K2 byte. As a consequence of the fault, the traffic on the affected Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) link is lost. The likely cause is that the MS is affected by the fault in the remote node. Transport network errors between the RNC and the remote RNC A restart in the remote RNC or inter mediate system A Radio Network Subsystem Application Part (RNSAP) failure in the RNC or the remote RNC
remote and/or field
The alarm is issued when an ete RDI (end-to-end RDI) cell is received in the F5 Operation and Maintenance (O&M) flow of the Virtual Circuit (VC). The fault is not in the local node, but in a remote node, or between the two nodes through which the VC is routed. The remote node can be a Plesiochronous Digital Hierarchy (PDH) or an Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) network element, or an ATM switch. Alarms, for example, Loss of Signal and Loss of Frame, identifying the failed entity, are reported from the network element that detected the fault. As a consequence of the fault, the traffic is lost. If the repair of the fault requires site visits, it might be feasible to use an alternative VC for the traffic.

Fault in a synchronization reference cable Fault in an external equipment that provides the synchronization reference signal to the TU Fault in the Timin Unit HW event, not alarm event, not alarm Fault in the system clock termination circuit Fault in the main subrack Fault in the extension subrack Fault in the backplane external alarm This alarm is issued when there is a communication fault in an Inter-Switch module Link (ISL) between the main switch module and an extension switch module in the node. In some cases, fault-free units may be indicated as well. The fault is located in the Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), which amplifies the RF signals in the receiver (RX) chain. When the transistors in one branch have failed, the cell is able to carry traffic as long as the other branch works, but the RX chain erformance is de raded. The alarm indicates that a component is faulty and must be replaced. external alarm event, not alarm event, not alarm This alarm is issued when the number of processing resources is configured to a value that is higher than the value available for High-Speed Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA) and Enhanced Uplink (EUL) on the Transmitter (TX) board within a baseband (BB) pool or in the Digital Unit WCDMA (DUW).
The alarm indicates that a component is faulty and must be replaced. external alarm external alarm event, not alarm external alarm This alarm is issued by the Clu Managed Object (MO) or ClDevice MO when there is a problem with the Climate Unit (CLU), or the DC power connection to CLU. The CLU is supplied with DC power from the Internal Power Distribution Battery Fuse Unit (IDM/BFU) or the DC Connection Unit (DCCU) depending on RBS type. The alarm indicates that software cannot be downloaded for the component for which the alarm is issued.

The likely cause is a faulty TUB/CBU. The RBS can still function with this fault, but traffic is disrupted in all cells. If the system is configured with two TUBs for redundancy, then it does not switch to the other TUB automatically. The alarm is raised by the HwUnit Managed Object (MO) with hwUnitType Battery Fuse Unit (BFU), when the battery has been disconnected due to a tripped circuit breaker either by user intervention or as an automatic BFU safe guard. The battery backup is not available. The RBS will not be able to provide any service in case of main power failure. This alarm is issued when the Power Distributor (PD) in the Capacitor Unit (CU) has detected that the input voltage is above the operator set or hardware default value. The PD measures voltage and current load in the RBS. This alarm is issued by the PdDevice Managed Object (MO) when the power distribution system voltage is above an operator set or hardware default value. The alarm is related to the Power Distributor (PD). The PD is the essential part of the Capacitor Unit (CU). The PD measures voltage and current load in the RBS. This alarm is issued by the TimDevice Managed Object (MO), and indicates problems with the Timing Unit Board (TUB), the Control Base Unit (CBU) or the Digital Unit WCDMA (DUW. The likely cause of the alarm is an internal hardware fault in the TUB/CBU or DUW. The consequence of the fault is that no calls can be set up and no user data can be processed. If configured with r edundancy, the RBS remains functional but without redundancy. License expired License expired, removed or not installed. The alarm can also occur if there is an attempt to activate the feature but the license is not installed. Node identity is in an undefined state This alarm is issued when a Plug-In Unit is marked faulty after a hardware test of the board.
The alarm indicates that the operational (actual) security level of the node is lower than the requested security level. As a result of the fault, the node has reduced rotection a ainst unauthorized access. A software fault An incorrect version of the software A faulty configuration, depending on a software error (only when RruDeviceGroup issues the alarm) external alarm
License expired License expired, removed or not installed. The alarm can also occur if there is an attempt to activate the feature but the license is not installed. Node identity is in an undefined state The alarm is issued when the clock frequency in the transmit direction at the remote node for the Inverse Multiplexing ATM (IMA) group is different from the clock frequency in the receive direction in this node for the IMA group. This node and the remote node are attempting to synchronize the IMA group in diff erent, incompatible ways. As a consequence of the fault, the IMA group does not function. The license for 60 W power amplifiers does not exist or has expired A license exists but the number of 60 W power amplifiers is larger than permitted by the new license The alarm is issued when the ET board cannot detect any signal at the input ort. The alarm indicates that a component is faulty and must be replaced. A software fault An incorrect version of the software A faulty configuration, depending on a software error The alarm indicates that a component is faulty and must be replaced. The alarm is issued when the frame alignment for the Synchronous Digital Hierarchy (SDH) or Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) frame is lost. Frame alignment is contained in the A1 and A2 bytes of the SDH or SONET frame. As a consequence of the fault, the traffic on the aff ected transmission link is lost. external alarm s external alarm external alarm A faulty Alternating Current Connection Unit (ACCU) A fault in the Remote Radio Unit (RRU), or with the incoming power A faulty cable between the Climate Unit (CLU) and the ACCU, or a fault in the CLU which consequently works with reduced capacity A fault in the incoming power supply. The severity of this alarm is related to the capacity of the battery backup system The RBS is running on batteries. The RBS remains functional as long as the battery backup system has enough capacity. The RBS is running on batteries. The RBS remains functional as long as the battery backup system has enough capacity. A fault with the incoming power If the alarm is issued by one or a few PSUs in the RBS, then the probable cause of this alarm is a faulty power cable or a fault in the Power Supply Unit (PSU). Depending on configuration, the RBS can remain functional with one or more faulty PSUs. If the alarm is issued by one or a few PSUs in the RBS, then the probable cause of this alarm is a faulty power cable or a fault in the Power Supply Unit (PSU). Depending on configuration, the RBS can remain functional with one or more faulty PSUs. If the alarm is issued by all PSUs in the RBS, then the probable cause is a fault in the incoming power supply. The severity of this alarm is related to the capacity of the battery backup system.

The PD measures voltage and current load in the RBS. The likely causes of this alarm are: The input voltage is too low A faulty CU This alarm is issued by the PdDevice Managed Object (MO) when the Power Distributor (PD) in the Capacitor Unit (CU) has detected that the input voltage is below the operator set or hardware default value. The PD measures voltage and current load in the RBS. The likely cause of this alarm is a fault in the external power supply system. This alarm is issued by the BfDevice Managed Object (MO) or Bfu MO when there is a fault in the internal power supply. It is generated by the Internal Distribution Module and Battery Fuse Unit (IDM/BFU) or the BFU (or equivalent for RBSs with RBS-controlled power supply system located outside the cabinet). The cause of this alarm can be one of the following: A blown fuse or a tripped circuit breaker in the IDM/BFU or in the BFU. A circuit breaker set to OFF (all circuit breakers must be in the ON position, even if no equipment is connected) Door open external alarm external alarm The alarm is issued when there is a fault in the active switch plane in a switch module. As a consequence of the fault, the traffic is lost. The likely cause is that it is a consequence of the primary alarms: Switch Core Fault Switch Port Fault The most likely cause of the alarm is a broken fan. If the cause of the problem is not the unit issuing the alarm, it could be environmental reasons. If so, RBS Temperature Out Of Range offers a systematic procedure for determining the correct cause. This alarm is issued when a Random Access and Receiver Board (RAX board) is given a slot position that shares a backplane wire with a slot where another RAX board is already in operation. One or more of these alarms is issued when there is a fault in the switch plane. A switch plane is distributed on all boards in a switch module. In some cases, fault-free units may be indicated as well. The alarm is also issued for a limited period of time for a Switch Core Board (SCB) or a Control Board Unit (CBU) in connection with upgrade, and node and board restart. event, not alarm The alarm indicates that software cannot be downloaded for the component for which the alarm is issued.
