• All modules can be used to accommodate the ROADM nodes built with the SMR-FS and AD-FS cards.
• A set of photodiodes are included on selected ports of each module for optical power monitoring.
• USB communication channel can be used to retrieve the optical power levels monitored by the photodiodes
and the inventory and insertion loss (IL) data of the optical paths stored in the modules. The USB channel
can also be used to activate electrical actuators or LEDs present on the front panel of the module.
• The xx SMR9 FS, SMR20 FS, or SMR20 FS CV and the 12-AD-FS or 16-AD-FS cards can be
interconnected by the NCS2K-MF-UPG-4=, NCS2K-MF-UPG-4-CV=, NCS2K-MF-DEG-5=,
NCS2K-MF-DEG-5-CV=, NCS2K-MF-MPO-16LC=, NCS2K-MF-M16LC-CV=,
NCS2K-MF-2MPO-ADP=, or the NCS2K-PPMESH8-5AD= module.
• The NCS2K-MF-16AE-CFS= and the NCS2K-MF-10AD-CFS= modules are only used as a passive

The following table lists the MPO cables that can be used with the passive modules from Release 10.6.1:
DescriptionMPO Cables
Fan-out cable with one MPO-24 connector on one
side and 16 LC connectors on the other side.
The cable is two meters long and can be used in
ROADM configurations with the
NCS2K-MF-6AD-CFS module. This cable can also
be used as a fan-out cable to connect the LC interface
directly to the SMR20 FS MPO ports.
