Network Interfaces[edit]

eNB interfaces with the System Architecture


Evolution (SAE) core (also known as Evolved Packet
Core (EPC)) and other eNB as follows:[1]
eNB uses the S1-AP protocol on the S1-MME
interface with the Mobility Management Entity (MME)
for control plane traffic.
eNB uses the GTP-U protocol on the S1-U interface
with the Serving Gateway (S-GW) for user plane
traffic.
Collectively the S1-MME and S1-U interfaces are
known as the S1 interface, which represents the
interface from eNB to the EPC.
eNB uses the X2-AP protocol on the X2 interface with
other eNB elements.
