AIGETOA  made an impassioned appeal to the Circle management to prioritize the below employee concerns and take action to clear the long pending issues.

1. Processing of pending Rule-8 requests ( 19 Nos ) who have completed more than 5 years of service in executive cadre in Kerala Circle 
2. Allotment of various financial allowances admissible to recently recruited LICE JTOs who are transferred in the interest of service from other circle to Kerala

This situation not only undermines the trust and confidence of the executives but also negatively impacts their morale and productivity of the organization. We expect that the pending concerns will be addressed and resolved to ensure adherence of commitments made earlier and the Circle   Management will understand the gravity of these concerns and will take the necessary steps to resolve them.

A Major breakthrough in Txmn system configuration

Details

Published on Saturday, 16 March 2024 15:51

A Major breakthrough in Cpan / Txmn system configuration has been achieved by the young engineers of BSNL Kerala. The team members are Sri Dipu Chandran SDE Cpan , Smt Anila KS SDE CNOC EKM , Sri Binu Jose AGM Proj Coordination , Sri Bijoy R SDE BSS , Sri Arun KG SDE BSS and Sri Bijeesh KP SDE OMCR.

Earlier BAs were facing many issues for rolling out new 4G. One major issue faced then was, the old and outdated transmission equipments at BTS locations as well as exchanges. The BTS locations where the end link was CPE, were major bottlenecks. The Tejas CPEs connected to Huawei MADM had access issue, others had bandwidth issue and lack of ports for connecting 4G etc. Tejas eNodeB had integrated transport card, but we were unable to use them because of fiber shortage and E1 issue. E1 issue had become a concern as E1 was needed to continue our 2G for some more time. Tejas eNodeB had 4E1s but extension of E1 through eNodeB was not possible.

The team member Smt Anila of CNOC Ernakulam came out with an idea of cascading Tejas eNodeBs.

Below is the methodology used

One remote eNodeB site was cascaded to one Tejas eNodeB physically. The remote 2G E1 was wired to the remote eNodeB, and dropped at Exchange eNodeB, then routed to BSC as it was working before. This worked and the remote 2G was now working through eNodeB and this eliminated the need of CPE/Anode at remote location.

Also, the team modified the plan and removed the physical cascading of eNodeBs and made it work through logical cascading.

Similarly, there is possibility of cascading another 3 remote locations of an exchange ( maximum 4) and spare the end link equipment. This gave a big relief to the projected requirement and concerns about adequate number of end links.

Sri Dipu Chandran is Asst Circle Secretary AIGETOA Kerala . AIGETOA is proud to have such wonderful people in its fold and we congratulates all the officers involved in this amazing feat and encourages the every young engineers in BSNL to bring about more such accolades and glory to BSNL.
