1、ATIS-0600012.01 ATIS Standard on Electrical Primary Protection Considerations for Broadband xDSL Systems Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions Approved December 8, 2017 Abstract: xDSL Broadband equipment is susceptible to disturbances that require the use of electrical primary protectio

2、n devices. These primary protectors could have a negative impact on the signal of interest during steady-state conditions as well as during protector switching or clamping operation. The characteristics of these electrical primary protectors and their impact on xDSL broadband signals are considered

3、herein. This is the first communication service platform specific document in a suite of ATIS Standards intended to provide requirements and guidance for the use of electrical primary protectors in various technology architectures. This particular ATIS Standard will address xDSL. ATIS-0600012.01 ii

4、Foreword The Alliance for Telecommunication Industry Solutions (ATIS) serves the public through improved understanding between providers, customers, and manufacturers. The Sustainability in Telecom: Energy and Protection (STEP) Committee formerly the Network Interface, Power, and Protection Committe

5、e (NIPP) engages industry expertise to develop standards and technical reports for telecommunications equipment and environments in the areas of energy efficiency, environmental impacts, power and protection. The work products of STEP enable vendors, operators and their customers to deploy and opera

6、te reliable, environmentally sustainable, energy efficient communications technologies. STEP is committed to proactive engagement with national, regional and international standards development organizations and forums that share its scope of work. The mandatory requirements are designated by the wo

7、rd shall and recommendations by the word should. Where both a mandatory requirement and a recommendation are specified for the same criterion, the recommendation represents a goal currently identifiable as having distinct compatibility or performance advantages. The word may denotes a optional capab

8、ility that could augment the standard. The standard is fully functional without the incorporation of this optional capability. Suggestions for improvement of this document are welcome. They should be sent to the Alliance for Telecommunications Industry Solutions, STEP, 1200 G Street NW, Suite 500, W

19、 used as a transport technology to commercial customer locations due to its high-speed symmetric characteristics. SHDSL can be used by applications that require symmetric access. The international standard for SHDSL is ITU-T Recommendation G.991.2, Single-pair high-speed digital subscriber line (SHD

20、SL) transceivers 107. The highest signal frequencies for SHDSL are: 385kb/s 120 kHz; 784 kb/s 250 kHz; 1.56 Mb/s 500 kHz. ADSLx can transmit a high speed down-stream data rate up to 27 Mbps to the subscriber, a lower speed up-stream data rate up to 2 Mbps, and can coexist with Plain Old Telephone Se

21、rvice (POTS). When POTS and ADSLx coexist on the same twisted-pair, then a splitter/filter is required at the Network End (Central Office, Remote Terminal, etc.) and at the Remote End (Customer Location) to separate the POTS and ADSLx signals. The ADSLx technology is intended for applications such a

The standard for ADSL is ATIS-0600413, Network and Customer Installation Interfaces Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) Metallic Interface 101. The international standards for ADSL are the I

23、TU-T standards ITU-T Recommendation G.992.1, Asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) transceivers 108 and ITU-T Recommendation G.992.2, Splitterless asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) transceivers 109. The ADSL2 standards are ITU-T Recommendation G.992.3, Asymmetric digital subscriber line

32、h Definition TV VDSL2 (Very High Data Rate Digital Subscriber Line) Up to 100 Mbps Up to 100 Mbps Downstream Upstream Same as ADSL and High Definition TV The transport capacity of the DSL systems depend on the physical characteristics of the twisted-pair cabling system such as cable length, wire gau

33、ge, impairments (example: cross talk, impulse noise, etc), and the presence of bridge taps and load coils. The transmission rate is constrained by the line attenuation that increases as the line length, wire gauge, and frequency increase. Figures 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 5.1 demonstrate the typical differ

34、ences in loop lengths at which each technology is capable of operating. 4.1 Pair Bonding (Non-Physical Layer Bonding) The use of more than one ADSL2plus or VDSL2 line typically two lines for residential service, and up to twelve lines for a business customer to provide service to a customer is refer

For a given loop length, bonding two lines approximately doubles both the downstream and upstream service bit-rates. Alternatively, for the same bit-rate, bonding two lines enables approximately 50% longer lines tha

Bonding, in combination with vectoring, could make 100 Mb/s up to 500m (1.64 kft) on 24 AWG and 40 Mbps to 1220m (4 kft) on 24 AWG service cost-effective for many more customers. 4.2 Performance Comparisons of Different xDSL Technologies The various technologies of xDSL have very d

37、ifferent performance characteristic. Within each technology type, there are performance differences, i.e., synchronization rate or data rate, based on loop length as shown in Figures 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, and 5.1 below. Figure 4.1 is based on data from Broadband Forum (BBF) TR100 Table A.1-15; Figure 4.2 i

39、e 17a 5 Available Primary Protection Technologies The following types of primary surge protection devices are commonly used in the telecommunications network: Carbon Air Gap; Gas Tube; Gas Tube with Back-Up Air Gap (BUG); Gas Tube with Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) Backup: Hybrid - Gas Tube with MOV; a

40、nd Solid State. Performance testing of protection devices is described in Telcordia GR-974-CORE, Generic Requirements for Telecommunications Line Protector Units 12, and in Telcordia GR-3154-CORE, Generic Requirements for High-Density Feeder Distribution Interconnection and Surge Protection 13. The

41、impulse breakdown voltage characteristic of these devices is illustrated in Figure 5.2 below. The breakdown voltage distribution comparison is shown in Figure 5.1 below.

42、te 5.1 Carbon Air Gap Protectors These devices consist of two small carbon electrodes which provide a small (3 to 6 mils) air gap between a conductor and ground. During a surge event, if the potential difference between the conductors and ground across the carbon electrodes exceeds the sparkover rat

If the surge is short-lived (e.g., a lightning stroke), the arc-over will be extinguished when

45、the current in the conductor is reduced to below approximately 50 mA, allowing the protector to return to its open-circuited condition. During steady-state discharges of considerable duration (e.g., power cross), the air gap is permanently shorted, grounding the conductor and providing a low impedan

46、ce path to ground. When the fault on the conductor is cleared, the carbon block protector must be replaced. Carbon air gap protectors are not recommended for use with modern xDSL technologies. These items may be difficult to acquire or replace. They may produce distortion or noise performance relate

47、d issues with xDSL equipment. 5.2 Gas Tube Protectors Gas Discharge devices are switching overvoltage protectors that have a discontinuous voltage/current (VI) characteristic. Power loss occurs in the glow and arc regions of the Gas Discharge Tubes (GDT) characteristic. By changing the formulation o

48、f the gas in a GDT, “regular” and “fast” devices can be fabricated. Fast GDTs offer lower impulse sparkover (at the expense of a shorter life for high surges wearout), but higher glow and arc voltage values. Typically, the arc voltage of a fast GDT is about two to three times higher than a regular G

49、DT arc voltage. Capacitance of the GDT is normally linear and only a few pF, and as a result has little or no effect on broadband signals regardless of the frequency. Figure 5.3 - Gas Tube Operating Regions When the voltage across the GDT conductors reaches its sparkover value, the GDT will enter into its glow voltage region. The sparkover voltage is dependent on the rate of voltage rise (dv/dt) across its conductors. A GDT DC sparkover is characterized with a ramp rate of 100-300 V/s and addresses low frequency fault events s
