Chapter 3 Turn Up a Node
NTP-G34 Install Fiber-Optic Cables on DWDM Cards and DCUs
• Unit-2—The ONS 15454 DWDM card (unit) that is installed in the Position-2 slot.
• Port #2—The port identifier shown in CTC for the first Position-2 connection.
• Port ID-2—The port identifier shown in TL1 for the Position-2 connection.
• Port Label-2—The name of the physical port printed on the card’s front plate and shown in CTC
card view for the Position-2 connection.
• Manually Set—Indicates whether you must create the connection manually in CTC. A Yes
appearing in this column means that you must create the connection manually.
Caution Failure to create the required manual connections will prevent the node from turning up properly.
Step 3 Verify that fibers are available to complete the connections shown in the Internal Connections table.
Step 4 Complete the “NTP-G115 Clean Fiber Connectors” procedure on page 13-25 for all fiber connections,
even new fiber. Dust particles can degrade performance. Put caps on any fiber connectors that are not
used.
Step 5 If you will not perform node acceptance tests for this site, complete the “DLP-G65 Install Fiber-Optic
Cables for OSC Link Terminations Between Two Adjacent Nodes” task on page 3-51. Otherwise,
continue with Step 6.
Step 6 On the front of the fiber-storage tray (usually installed below the node you are fibering), push the tabs
on the left and right sides inward to release the lock on the tray.
Step 7 Pull the fiber-storage tray away from the shelf until it is fully opened.
Step 8 Open the fold-down door that at the bottom of the shelf assembly to expose the cable-routing channel
(Figure 15-35 on page 15-37).
Step 9 Using the Cisco MetroPlanner Internal Connection table, install the fiber-optic cables. Steps provided in
the following tasks can be used as general guidelines; however, the fiber-optic cabling at your site will
probably differ from the examples shown in the tasks.
• DLP-G66 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for a Hub Node, page 3-54
• DLP-G67 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for a Terminal Node, page 3-56
• DLP-G68 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for a Line Amplifier Node, page 3-58
• DLP-G69 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for an OSC Regeneration Node, page 3-60
• DLP-G70 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for an Amplified or Passive OADM Node, page 3-63
• DLP-G71 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for an ROADM Node, page 3-68
Step 10 To close the fiber-storage tray, push the tray back toward the rack until it locks into place.
Stop. You have completed this procedure.
