34 Meridian SL-100 general functions• At sites that have a Dual Plane Common Control (DPCC) SuperNodewith JNET, but that do not have Link Peripheral Processor (LPP) or FLIS,an upgrade to up to a 32K ENET and up to two LIS shelves with EIU,CCS7 and other advanced applications is executed.• At sites that have a Dual Plane Combined Core SuperNode with up to a32K ENET, but that do not have LPP or FLIS, a field upgrade adds upto two LIS shelves into the 32K ENET cabinet.Some of the features available with the MCNI are as follows:• non-blocking network matrix supporting up to 32,000 redundant ports• up to 24 Application Specific Units, including— Link Interface Unit (LIU7) supporting CCS7— Ethernet Interface Unit (EIU) supporting 10BaseT interface— Network Interface Unit (NIU) supporting Channelized Accessdelivery of CCS7 services— Enhanced Link Interface Unit (XLIU) providing X.25 packet handlerservices— Frame Relay Interface Unit (FRIU)Link Peripheral ProcessorThe Link Peripheral Processor (LPP) is a multipurpose platform thatserves as a strategic tool for economically introducing an array of networksimplification applications. Provisioned with appropriate "personality cards"(referred to as interface units) and software, the Link Peripheral Processorsupports the following:• Common Channel Signaling #7 (CCS7)• Synchronous Digital Network (SDN) Packet Services (XLIU)• Ethernet Interface Unit (EIU)The Link Peripheral Processor allows a variety of interface units (up to 36) tooccupy the same cabinet, and in many cases, the same shelf. Enterprisescan introduce and administer new applications with minimal expense,mixing and matching as necessary to meet the requirements of eachindividual switch. The single-shelf Link Peripheral Processor, resident onthe SuperNode SE, ensures low startup costs for applications that require12 or fewer personality cards.Communication Server 2100Meridian SL-100 Product Guide555-4001-103 20.01 StandardSE09 20 October 2006Copyright © 2006, Nortel Networks Nortel Networks Confidential.
