This section describes the MIC-A/P and MIC-C/T/P FMECs, which provide power, external alarm, and
timing connections for the ONS 15454 ETSI shelf.
2.6.1 MIC-A/P FMEC
Note For hardware specifications, see the “A.3.5 MIC-A/P FMEC Specifications (ETSI only)” section on
page A-11.
The MIC-A/P FMEC provides connection for the BATTERY B input, one of the two possible redundant
power supply inputs. It also provides connection for eight alarm outputs (coming from the TCC2/TCC2P
card), sixteen alarm inputs, and four configurable alarm inputs/outputs. Its position is in Slot 23 in the
center of the subrack Electrical Facility Connection Assembly (EFCA) area.
The MIC-A/P FMEC has the following features:
• Connection for one of the two possible redundant power supply inputs
• Connection for eight alarm outputs (coming from the TCC2/TCC2P card)
• Connection for four configurable alarm inputs/outputs
• Connection for sixteen alarm inputs
• Storage of manufacturing and inventory data
For proper system operation, both the MIC-A/P and MIC-C/T/P FMECs must be installed in the
ONS 15454 ETSI shelf. Figure 2-6 shows the MIC-A/P faceplate.

Card-Level LEDs Description
FAIL LED (Red) The red FAIL LED indicates that the card processor is not ready or that a
catastrophic software failure occurred on the card. As part of the boot
sequence, the FAIL LED is turned on until the software deems the card
operational.
ACT LED (Green) The green ACT LED provides the operational status of the card. If the ACT
LED is green, it indicates that the card is active and the software is
operational.
