Figure 34—IDSL Service Provisioning

Grooming and Concentration in Cellular Networks

Figure 35 shows how a remote cell site uses an IMACS, trademarked “CellDAX” for all cellular environments, to transport cellular voice and data traffic to the Mobile Switch Center (MSC). At the MSC, a DCS directs the CDPD traffic (typically, a single DS0) from each of the 96 cell sites to the IMACS at same MCS. Because CDPD uses HDLC framing the traffic from the 96 DS0s can be encapsulated by the two Frame Relay server cards located in the IMACS. Each Frame Relay server can take in 64 DS0s directly into ports. Typically the CDPD traffic is bursty and often less than one full DS0 and so can be groomed and concentrated by the Frame Relay server down to 48 or 24 DS0s depending upon the level of concentration needed. This results in a net savings of two or three T1/E1 spans across the regional MSCs respectively. The MD-IS (Mobile Data Intermediate System) then processes the traffic and routes it to the appropriate destinations.
