Table A-2 Description of Node Icons on Network View Map
Node Name Icon Description
SONET
SDH
Hybrid OADM
Hybrid line amplifier
Hybrid terminal
Passive hybrid terminal
Amplified TDM
A SONET, SDH, hybrid, or amplified time-division
multiplexing (TDM) node icon is represented as a cylinder
with crossed arrows.
• A SONET or SDH node can include OC-N cards,
electrical cards, cross-connects, Storage Access
Management (SAM) cards, and Ethernet cards.
• A hybrid optical add/drop multiplexing (OADM) node
contains at least one Channel OADM (AD-xC-xx.x) or
one Band OADM (AD-xB-xx.x) card and two Advanced
Timing, Communications, and Controller (TCC2/TCC2P)
cards. TDM cards can be installed in any available slot.
• A hybrid line amplifier node contains amplifiers and both
TDM and dense wavelength division multiplexing
(DWDM) cards.
• A hybrid terminal node contains at least one 32-Channel
Multiplexer (32MUX-O) card, one Double-Slot
32-Channel Demultiplexer (32DMX-O) card, amplifiers,
two TCC2/TCC2P cards, and TDM cards.
• A passive hybrid terminal node has the same equipment as
the hybrid terminal node, but does not contain amplifiers.
• An amplified TDM node is a node that increases the span
length between two ONS 15454 nodes that contain TDM
cards and optical amplifiers. Amplified TDM nodes
contain either Optical Booster (OPT-BST) amplifiers or
AD-1C cards.
Hub A DWDM hub node icon is represented as a three-dimensional
cylinder with amplifiers. A hub node contains at least two
32DMX or 32DMX-O cards and two 32MUX-O. No OADM
cards are provisioned.
OADM A DWDM OADM node icon is represented as a
three-dimensional cylinder with arrows. An OADM node
contains at least one AD-xC-xx.x or one AD-xB-xx.x. No
32MUX-O, 32DMX-O, or 32DMX cards are provisioned.
ROADM A reconfigurable OADM (ROADM) node icon is represented
as a three-dimensional cylinder with two amplifier symbols
that have arrows between them. An ROADM node contains at
least one 32-channel Wavelength Selective Switch (32WSS).
A single-slot 32DMX or double-slot 32DMX-O can be
installed, but is not required. Transponders (TXPs) and
muxponders (MXPs) can be installed in Slots 6 and 12. If
amplification is not used, TXPs or MXPs can be installed in
Slots 1 and 17. If OPT-BSTs are not installed, Optical Service
Channel and Combiner/Separator Module (OSC-CSM) cards
are installed in Slots 2 and 16 and Slots 8 and 10 are empty.
