ITU-T L.70 (11/2007) FOREWORD The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is the United

4、 Nations specialized agency in the field of telecommunications, information and communication technologies (ICTs). The ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T) is a permanent organ of ITU. ITU-T is responsible for studying technical, operating and tariff questions and issuing Recommendat

5、ions on them with a view to standardizing telecommunications on a worldwide basis. The World Telecommunication Standardization Assembly (WTSA), which meets every four years, establishes the topics for study by the ITU-T study groups which, in turn, produce Recommendations on these topics. The approv

6、al of ITU-T Recommendations is covered by the procedure laid down in WTSA Resolution 1. In some areas of information technology which fall within ITU-Ts purview, the necessary standards are prepared on a collaborative basis with ISO and IEC. NOTE In this Recommendation, the expression “Administratio

However, the Recommendation may contain certain mandatory provisions (to ensure e.g. interoperability or applicability) and compliance w

The words “shall“ or some other obligatory language such as “must“ and the negative equivalents are used to express requirements. The use of such words does not suggest that compliance with the Recommendation is requi

18、 Bibliography. 27 Rec. ITU-T L.70 (11/2007) v Introduction In order to obtain maximum reliability at a minimal cost, network electronics are generally centralized in locations with controlled environments. This is also typical for the initial lay out of copper networks for plain old telephone servic

19、e (POTS). However, with the increasing demand for connections and bandwidth, operators often face the need to apply active electronics at remote locations. These active nodes cannot always be located inside buildings. This Recommendation focuses on the aspects of active electronics, located at outsi

20、de plant locations. Active network nodes in outside plant have a number of characteristics that make their design and maintenance more complex than that of passive nodes: active nodes perform a transformation between input and output signal; active nodes require electrical powering; active nodes dis

36、 Rec. ITU-T L.70 (11/2007) 3 5 Packaging for environmental and mechanical protection Any node in the outside plant needs to be packaged properly to protect its content from the influences of the environment. 5.1 Environments Active nodes in outside plant may be located in three typical locations: OA

37、: Outdoor above ground level (aerial), mounted on a wall or pole or hanging from an aerial cable. OG: Outdoor at ground level, stored in a cabinet or pedestal, standing on the ground, with a base that may reside partially underground. OS: Outdoor below ground level (subterranean), stored in an under

38、ground man-hole, hand-hole or directly buried. The typical properties of these environments can be found in Annex A. Compared to passive network nodes (e.g., as described in ITU-T L.51 on passive optical nodes), a certain amount of heat is generated inside the enclosure by the electronics. Hence, a

39、more detailed approach concerning operating temperatures is required. This is covered in more detail in clause 6 and in Appendices I and II. 5.2 Sealing against ingress of solids and fluids For nodes above or at ground level (OA and OG), the minimum recommended protection level against ingress of ob

40、jects and water is IP 55 according to IEC 60529 (protected against dust and resistant to jets of water). For nodes at ground level (OG), it is recommended to provide a separation plate with cable entrance seals to avoid intrusion of dirt, water, rodents or insects via the bottom. For nodes below gro

41、und level (OS), the recommended sealing level is IP 68 according to IEC 60529 (suitable for permanent submersion). Required submersion depth should be at least 1 m above the top of the enclosure, but may be more if applied in deep manholes (in this case, the maximum required submersion depth is to b

42、e agreed explicitly between user and supplier in order to obtain proper sealing performance and structural strength). 5.3 Resistance to aggressive agents The enclosure containing the electronics should be resistant to the most common aggressive agents as they may occur in the outdoor environments. F

43、or all outdoor environments (OA, OG and OS): all materials (metals) should be resistant to corrosion; all materials should be resistant to micro organisms (fungi/bacteria). For nodes above or at ground level (OA and OG): all external (polymeric) materials, including surface coatings, should be resis

44、tant to UV radiation. For underground nodes (OS): all external materials should be resistant to accidental exposure chemical agents that may occur in underground along side roads, such as oil, diesel, kerosene, acids, bases and surfactants (detergents). 4 Rec. ITU-T L.70 (11/2007) 5.4 Mechanical pro

45、tection The enclosure should be resistant to the mechanical loads and influences that it may encounter in the outdoor environment. For nodes above or at ground level (OA and OG): a minimum recommended protection level against impact of IK 10 according to IEC 62262; the enclosures, including fixation

46、 system, should resist loads induced by wind. For underground nodes (OS): Enclosure should be resistant to accidental impact from above. Enclosure should be resistant to a static load on top equivalent to the weight of at least one installer. Node should be resistant to vibration and shock. Cables m

47、ust be properly attached to resist axial tension, flexure and torsion loads that may occur during typical installation and maintenance. 6 Thermal management The temperature inside the enclosure (Tinside) must be kept within the operational temperature range of the electronics. 6.1 Thermal model The

48、temperature inside an above ground active enclosure will be determined by a number of factors: the air temperature of the environment (Tair) (as measured in a thermometer hut); solar radiation; the heat dissipated by the electronics (Q); the construction of the enclosure.

ITU-T L.70 (11/2007) 5 For underground nodes, a similar model is applicable, however, there will be no direct solar exposure to the enclosure, while the dissipated heat is transferred via the hand-hole and the surrounding soil.
