9.3.3 Optical Side Configurations
Table 9-9 shows another eight-degree mesh node. In the example, Sides A through H are assigned to
Slots 1 through 6 in all shelves (Shelves 1 through 8). 40-WXC-C cards in line termination mode are
installed in Sides A through H.
Table 9-10 shows a four-degree mesh node with a user-defined side. Because the software assigns sides
consecutively, and because the mesh node is four-degrees, the side assigned to Shelf 5, Slots 1 through 6
is “Unknown.”
