Multiband OMC-R With Software Release 8.0, an single OMC can mange and control EBTSs in more
than one frequency range. If muli-national, a single OMC may be connected to
EBTSs that use frequencies in different RF spectrum ranges. Limitations are:
• All EBTS sites must use the same spectrum at one site
• All neighbor list candidates of a site also may the same spectrum.
OMC-R
Interconnect
The OMC-R controls and monitors the radio network elements, including the:
• Dispatch Application Processors (DAPs)
• Base Site Controllers (BSCs)
• Enhanced Base Transceiver Systems (EBTS)
• Mobile Data Gateways (MDGs)
• Advanced Packet Duplicators (APDs)
The scope of responsibility for the OMC-R is the Fixed Network Radio Equipment
(FNE). The OMC-R does not control:
• Mobility Management of the subscriber within the network
• Mobile Switching Center
• Telco Transmission management.
• Inter-region administration and control
Each of the radio network elements can be managed remotely by the OMC. The
OMC supports connection to the other network entities through:
• X.25 packet network (BSCs and EBTSs)
• Frame Relay Permanent Virtual Circuits (PVCs) (MDG)
• Ethernet networks (DAP and APD)
The general interconnection of network devices is shown in Figure 2-15
