GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE SX2000 LIGHT
The Mitel SX-2000 is a digital integrated
communications Private Automatic Branch exchange (PABX) system. The SX-2000 is called an
Integrated Communications System because it can switch telephone calls and data
connections between terminals and / or computers. The capability to handle both voice and
data is one reason why the SX-2000 is economical and flexible. Only one system is needed
for both tasks, to connect a telephone and a terminal to the same line, allowing rapid
office reorganisation without the need for rewiring.
The SX-2000 consists of the following subsystems and equipment:
- Fibre optic cable distributed equipment cabinets that house the central processor and
common control elements of the system and circuit cards;
- The software that controls the system; An integral hard disc drive that stores the
system software and the working copies of the system data;
- A cartridge tape that is used for loading and making backup copies of the system
software and data, including optional software;
- One or more Superset operator consoles:- These can be screen based or LCD display
consoles offering unrivalled facilities including a powerful programmable telephone
directory. The console can be used to perform Moves and Changes;
- Extension telephones, both standard and the Superset family of digital telephones:-
Whilst most approved telephone instruments can be connected to the system. Feature
telephones not supplied by MITEL may not have access to all features and facilities. MITEL
recommend that telephones that are not supplied by us are tested for use with the SX-2000
prior to purchase.
- Printer to provide the system manager with a record of system data, traffic information,
including calls to and from individual extensions.
- Datasets to enable telephone users to make and receive data transmissions;
- Optional maintenance terminal and printer, which the maintenance engineer can use for
fault diagnosis and reprogramming;
- System Fail Transfer circuits that ensure a telephone service to predetermined
extensions in the event of a power supply failure (beyond the duration of the optional
stand-by power equipment);
- A Test Jack Frame that provides a distribution point for the system wiring.
Note:- the light grey cabinets will not fit into a standard 19 inch rack as
they are wider than 19 inches. The later dark grey cabinets have a reduced
width for the casing, but not the two front doors. The dark grey cabinets
can therefore be installed into a 19 inch rack, on a shelf, but the front doors
will not go into the rack and will stand proud on the frame.
Tailoring the SX-2000
Within the limits of their capacities, every SX-2000 installation is
unique in that the purchaser can specify a system that will meet their needs.
A number of ways of tailoring an SX-2000 are possible, including:
- Providing the required number of telephones, operator consoles and other equipment;
- Distributing and locating equipment cabinets adjacent to telephone communities;
- Selecting system options and features to provide the desired service;
- Provide each telephone user with system features that are most; appropriate to their
function;
- The ability to change numbers and locations of equipment and options and features to
suit organisational change.
- The SX-2000 can accommodate a number of different applications such as, a General
Business system, a Hotel system, an ACD system or a Utilities based system.
- The SX-2000 can be linked with other PABXs to form a network; The network can consist of
analogue private wires and digital DPNSS links.
Technical Description
A Mitel SX2000
LIGHT will consist of a Control Cabinet (single or duplicated processors) which may have
associated Peripheral Cabinets, Digital Service Unit (DSU) Cabinets and ISDN Server
Cabinets.
Fibre optic cables connect each Peripheral Cabinet and DSU Cabinet to the Control
cabinet. The system is over wise known as the SX2000FD, FD for fibre distributed.
Peripheral Cabinets and DSU Cabinets can be located up to 1 Km from the Control Cabinet
allowing peripheral resources such as lines (extensions), trunks and digital service
applications (DPNSS/DASS2), to be physically distributed.
For example, several Peripheral Cabinets might provide telephone services to office
areas, where the SX-2000 fibre cables can share the same routing as that of Fibre LAN(s).
Each Peripheral Cabinet will connect to the Control cabinet via a fibre optic (twin)
cable. Copper cables from extension telephones will terminate at a Peripheral Cabinet
avoiding the need for copper wiring between floors or lengthy cable runs to the PABX room.
Control Cabinet
Each Control Cabinet can support up to 11 Fibre Interface Modules (FIMs). Peripheral
Cabinets require one fibre cable pair, allowing a maximum of 11 Peripheral Cabinets that
will provide a total of 2112 ports. Each DSU Cabinet requires two fibre connections. This
will allow a maximum of 6 DSU Cabinets that will provide 1320 digital trunks. Any mix of
Peripheral and DSU Cabinets is permitted, allowing a range of configurations from a 1320
trunk Tandem switch to a 2112 extension port PAX. The SX2000 LIGHT is a flexible, powerful
system that can meet almost any customer configuration requirement.
OPTION 1 - Redundant
The dual processor SX2000 LIGHT Control Cabinet has back-up
main control redundancy, with independent power supplies. If a component fails, system
operation will not be affected.
OPTION 2 - Non-Redundant
A single processor option provides full system functionality
without the redundancy facilities.
A single processor SX2000 LIGHT Control Cabinet can be upgraded to dual processors at
any time during the life of the system.

| DSU cards |
CEPT Formatter
Interface for 2 x 2 Mbit/s links each of which can be individually software configured for
DPNSS/APNSS, or DASS 2 (ISDN30). Each link comprises 30 traffic channels, 1 signalling
channel and 1 synchronisation channel to CCITT G703 and G734 standards.
Communications Processor card
This is a general purpose processor used for communication between the SX2000 and an
external host computer. It will support Host Computer Interface (HCI) applications.
Conference Card
This card will increase conferencing capability to 64 simultaneous users. (24 channels are
provided as standard).
DS1 Formatter
This is a digital network interface card provided for specialist or overseas applications
only.
Data Transceiver
The data transceiver interprets commands and returns call progress messages to the user of
a data terminal or PC.
SX2000 ISDN Server
The ISDN Server is a unit which connects the SX2000 to the existing ISDN network. The ISDN
Server behaves like a CEPT Formatter Card, providing digital network control of serial
links. All necessary conversion is performed within the ISDN Server, and necessary
interfaces are contained within the ISDN Server.
The ISDN Server offers the SX2000 end-to-end connectivity, this means that analogue
conversion is not necessary and that digital transmission is extended to the subscriber's
premises, enhancing SX2000 services.
The ISDN Server uses Primary Rate Interface (PRI) cables to connect with the ISDN
Public Network. The PRI is a combination of channels creating a specific interface between
the SX2000 and the Public Network. The PRI consists of 30 x B-Channels, 1 x D-Channel and
1 x Synchronisation/Frame channel. The B-Channels are 64 Kbit/s bearer or traffic channels
used to carry voice or data, The D-Channel is a 64 Kbit/s channel used for signalling and
user data. The Synchronisation/Frame channel is used to establish and maintain the
circuit.
The SX2000 ISDN Server operates as a CEPT Formatter connecting calls in a DPNSS format.
ISDN calls are presented to the SX2000 as DPNSS/DASS2 calls. The ISDN Server behaves like
a Digital Service Unit (DSU) running Euro-ISDN/DPNSS software and protocols.
The ISDN Server is connected to the SX2000 by coaxial cables and provides digital
network control of serial links.
