Configuring the BTS3012 S8/8/8

This describes how to configure the S8/8/8 for the BTS3012 using the DTRU.

Scenario	BSC initial configuration and BSC capacity expansion
Mandatory/Optional	Optional. The BTS3012 S8/8/8 is configured if required.

NOTE:

The procedure for configuring the S8/8/8 for the BTS in TDM transmission mode is the same as that for configuring the S8/8/8 for the BTS in HDLC/HUB transmission mode.

If the BTS3012 S8/8/8 is configured by using only the DTRU, 12 DTRUs are required. A fully configured cabinet holds only six DTRUs. Therefore, another cabinet is required to form combined cabinets. In addition, more site chains should be added to guarantee sufficient bandwidth.

Prerequisites

Procedure

1. Start the wizard for adding a BTS.
   • When adding a BTS for the first time, you can start the wizard for adding a BTS only on the GEIUB/GOIUB in the GMPS or GEPS. On the BSC6000 Local Maintenance Terminal, right-click a GEIUB in the GMPS.
   • If a BTS already exists, you can add a cascaded BTS under this BTS. On the Management Tree tab page, right-click a BTS.
