9.1.2 Terminal Node
A terminal node is a single ONS 15454 node equipped with two TCC2/TCC2P cards and one of the
following combinations:
• One 32MUX-O card and one 32DMX-O card
• One 32WSS card and either a 32DMX or a 32DMX-O card
• One 32WSS-L card and one 32DMX-L card
• One 40-WSS-C or 40-WSS-CE card and one 40-DMX-C or 40-DMX-CE card
• One 40-MUX-C and one 40-DMX-C or 40-DMX-CE card
Cards in the terminal nodes can be installed in Slots 1 through 6 or Slots 12 through 17. The side where
cards are installed is always assigned as Side A. Figure 9-4 shows an example of a terminal configuration
with a 2MUX-O card installed. The channel flow for a terminal node is the same as the hub node
(Figure 9-3).
