BTSM TIE(terminal endpoint identifier), as the abr says tie is normaly used as a way o addressing or diffrentiating beween all the sites in the BSC, it does the same thing as SALUNAME. for signaling slot it is time slot that the bts/bsc will use to communicate with the BSC/BTS, it must be the same as the one you set on the BSC side or else there will be no comms between the NE’s. as for cabinet config can you elaborate?
