Chapter 4 Perform Node Acceptance Tests
NTP-G42 Perform the Terminal Node with 32WSS and 32DMX Cards Acceptance Test
Step 11 Click the Admin State column for the trunk port and choose OOS,Maintenance (ANSI) or
Unlocked,Maintenance (ETSI) from the drop-down list.
Step 12 Click Apply, then click Ye s .
Step 13 Connect a power meter to the DWDM TX port. Verify that the output power falls within –4.5 dBm and
1 dBm. If it does not fall within this range, replace the card or contact your next level of support.
Step 14 Repeat Steps 3 through 13 for all the installed TXP cards.
Step 15 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
NTP-G42 Perform the Terminal Node with 32WSS and 32DMX
Cards Acceptance Test
Note This procedure creates an optical loopback on the OPT-BST line. An optical signal is sent from the
32WSS input (add) to the OPT-BST common RX and back out the OPT-BST TX line. The OPT-BST
line receives the looped signal from the OPT-BST TX. It then passes the signal to the OPT-BST common
TX and into the OPT-PRE common RX. The OPT-PRE sends the signal to the 32DMX. The optical
signal from the tunable laser or TXP_MR_2.5G must pass successfully through the 32WSS and out the
32DMX.
Step 1 Complete the “DLP-G46 Log into CTC” task on page 2-25 at the hub or terminal node that you want to
test. If you are already logged in, continue with Step 2.
Step 2 Display the terminal node in node view.
Step 3 Click the Alarms tab.
a. Verify that the alarm filter is not on. See the “DLP-G128 Disable Alarm Filtering” task on page 8-28
as necessary.
b. Verify that no equipment (EQPT) alarms appear indicating equipment failure or other hardware
problems. If equipment failure alarms appear, investigate and resolve them before continuing. Refer
to the Cisco ONS 15454 Troubleshooting Guide or the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting
Guide for procedures.
Purpose This procedure tests a DWDM terminal node with 32WSS and 32DMX
cards installed.
Tools/Equipment A tunable laser or eight TXP_MR_2.5G cards covering the 32 C-band
wavelengths (see Table 4-1)
An optical power meter or optical spectrum analyzer
1 bulk attenuator (10 dB) with LC connectors
