The seven absolute Safety rules are as follows:
1.Always wear your seatbelt while driving & ensure that your co-passengers wear it too (front
seats & back seats)
2.Never exceed speed limits.
3.Always wear a helmet while riding & ensure that the pillion rider wears one too.
4.Never use your mobile phone while driving.
5.Never drive under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
6.Electrical problems should be fixed by qualified workers
7.Always use suitable personal protection equipment and attach safety harnesses while
working at heights. All PPEs should be CE/EN approved & as per VF specifications. All
resources should be trained in CBTHRS (Contractor Basic Training on Height & rescue) by one
of the four VF approved training companies & only trained resources
(riggers/Technicians/Engineers) shall be deployed for all work at heights. All work at heights
shall be supervised by competent supervisors.

Protection for Electrostatic Discharge Sensitive (ESDS) devices.
• Work area:
• It is essential to handle ESDS devices at static-safe workstations. This will prevent yield loss
(through catastrophic damage) or, worse, potential reliability failures in the field (through latent
damage).
• Where it is impractical or impossible to use antistatic wrist-straps or remove items that are
composed of insulative materials at a static-safe workstation, use an air ionizer designed to
neutralize electrostatic charges or apply topical antistats to control generation and accumulation of
static charges.
• Personnel:
• Any accumulated charge on the body of the human operator should be discharged first before
opening the protective container with ESDS devices inside. The discharge can be accomplished by
putting a hand on a grounded surface or, ideally, by wearing a grounded antistatic wrist-strap.
• Packaging and Transportation:

2G/3G Troubleshooting process:-
Outage Criteria:1.BSC & RNC outage:-
Action :-
Please check TX side(Any media outage happened)/Power issue at BSC location.
If problem not resolved Please inform to System support Team.
2. 2G sites/PABIS & Node B:-
Please check TX path if issue not found at Tx end.
Check power related issue at BTS end.
If still reason not found. Check local loop break toward BSC/BTS side.
If still issue not resolved .Please give power reset to BTS/Node B.
Check ping response of M-Plane from BCSU Unit for PABIS site.
Check ping response of O & M plane from RNC OMU unit for Node B troubleshooting.
Minor outage –Less than 5 Sites, Major outage-less than 14 sites. Critical outage:-More than 15Sites.Emergency outage-BSC

MML – Man Machine Language
The MML interface allows you to execute
- Individual MML commands.
- MML Macros.
- Command Calendar Tasks.
For Internal Use | BSC Basic MML Commands | Ver1.0
Macros are often used to execute complicated command sequences repeatedly.
By means of a command calendar, individual MML commands or command sequences can be
executed at a certain time.
41 © Nokia Solutions and Networks 2014
For Internal Use | BSC Basic MML Commands | Ver1.0
To be able to open an MML session, you need a User ID and Password.
Different user’s rights to execute commands in a session are dictated by the authority level
defined in the user profile. The authority level always applies to an entire command class.
Prerequisites for executing MML Commands
If the user’s authority level is different from the terminal’s, the MMI system automatically
restricts the execution rights according to the lower level.
MML Command Syntax
An MML command consists of three letters:
The first letter indicates the command class,
The first and second together form a command group,
The third one indicates the command.

provided to BTSs over high quality packet network (e.g. Metro Ethernet)
- Allows to keep costs low by obsolescing use of GPS or Hybrid Backhaul (simultaneous usage of TDM
and packet backhaul) for synchronization
• Solution includes:
- Timing over Packet (ToP) Master Clock at RNC sending synchronization information to BTSs. RNC site
node can be used to connect ToP Master
- FTIB in Flexi BTS (ToP Slave) for recovering clock signal from Timing over Packet data

Accurate frequency synchronization over Ethernet links independent of the network load
• Synchronization information, needed for running air interface with required frequency accuracy, can be provided to

• Synchronous Ethernet provides SDH like mechanism for distributing frequency at layer 1
• In contrary to packet based synchronization (IEEE1588, NTP), the stability of the recovered frequency does not depend
on network load / impairments
• It is point to point technology, which has to be implemented at all intermediate hops

VLAN Traffic Differentiation
OPEX & CAPEX savings by selective transport QoS treatment
RNC and BTS support tagging of Ethernet frames with VLAN IDs according to the traffic class (e.g. R99 voice, R99 data,
HSPA etc.)
- There can be up to 3 VLAN IDs defined per user plane (high, medium and low priority), one VLAN ID for control plane, one
VLAN ID for management plane traffic and one VLAN ID for Timing over Packet.
• Applications:
- Traffic separation: Ethernet switches do forwarding decisions based on VLAN ID, allowing to use different transport paths
or transmission medias like microwave radios and DSL
- Traffic aggregation: Traffic from multiple base stations can be aggregated on Ethernet level for each traffic class separately
- Traffic marking: Some leased line provider do not support priority bit, but rather require QoS marking via VLAN ID

BTS Backhaul over Multiple IP Interfaces
- Features allows to establish transport solutions for BTS backhaul, which otherwise would be only possible with additional
costs due to external devices (HW, management, outdoor capability etc.)
• Applications:
- Traffic separation: Each port can be used for specific traffic types (e.g. one for low priority, one for high priority traffic),
allowing to use different backhaul technologies (e.g. two DSL variants or MWR/DSL in parallel)
- Load balancing: Iub traffic is evenly split among the two interfaces and paths, allowing to benefit from higher transport
capacities and also as a means of redundancy

IP over ML-PPP on E1/T1/JT1 Interfaces
• Multilink PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) allows to run Iub/IP over exising TDM infrastructure, e.g.
- TDM microwave radios, which do not support Ethernet transport or a “bitpipe” mode
- Installed Flexi WCDMA BTS with transport submodules providing only PDH interfaces (FTEB, FTPB, FTHA, FTFA): They
can be migrated to Iub/IP without swapping the transport submodule and the legacy last/first mile equipment
• ML-PPP allows to aggregate multiple PDH links into a single bundle and to carry IP traffic over it
• It runs between FlexiBTS and next hop IP router, which also terminates the TDM layer

    28 © NokiaSolutions and Networks 2014 Protection for Electrostatic Discharge Sensitive (ESDS) devices. • Work area: • It is essential to handle ESDS devices at static-safe workstations. This will prevent yield loss (through catastrophic damage) or, worse, potential reliability failures in the field (through latent damage). • Where it is impractical or impossible to use antistatic wrist-straps or remove items that are composed of insulative materials at a static-safe workstation, use an air ionizer designed to neutralize electrostatic charges or apply topical antistats to control generation and accumulation of static charges. • Personnel: • Any accumulated charge on the body of the human operator should be discharged first before opening the protective container with ESDS devices inside. The discharge can be accomplished by putting a hand on a grounded surface or, ideally, by wearing a grounded antistatic wrist-strap. • Packaging and Transportation: ESD Protection requirements

    41 © NokiaSolutions and Networks 2014 For Internal Use | BSC Basic MML Commands | Ver1.0 To be able to open an MML session, you need a User ID and Password. Different user’s rights to execute commands in a session are dictated by the authority level defined in the user profile. The authority level always applies to an entire command class. Prerequisites for executing MML Commands If the user’s authority level is different from the terminal’s, the MMI system automatically restricts the execution rights according to the lower level. MML Command Syntax An MML command consists of three letters: The first letter indicates the command class, The first and second together form a command group, The third one indicates the command.
