Chapter 4 Perform Node Acceptance Tests
NTP-G45 Perform the Line Amplifier Node with OSCM Cards Acceptance Test
Step 7 If you are using a tunable laser, follow the manufacturer’s instructions to complete the following steps.
If you are using a TXP_MR_2.5G card, continue with Step 8.
a. Set the output power to a nominal value, such as –3 dBm.
b. Set the tuner to the wavelength under test, then continue with Step 9.
Step 8 If you are using a TXP_MR_2.5G card, complete the “DLP-G268 Provision TXP_MR_2.5G Cards for
Acceptance Testing” task on page 4-4 for the TXP containing the wavelength you will test. Refer to
Table 4-1 on page 4-4, if needed.
Step 9 Connect the tunable laser transmitter or the TXP_MR_2.5G card DWDM TX port to the LINE RX port
of the east OPT-BST using a 10-dB bulk attenuator.
Caution Failure to use proper attenuation might damage equipment.
Step 10 Wait 90 seconds, then in node view click the Alarms tab. Verify that the LOS alarms on the west
OPT-BST and OSCM cards have cleared. The clearing of the LOS alarms indicates that the OSC link is
active on the west side.
Note An SDCC Termination Failure alarm will continue to appear due to the OSC signal loopback.
An LOS-O alarm appears on the east OPT-BST card, and an LOS alarm appears on the east
OCSM card.
If the alarms clear, continue with Step 11. If not, perform the following steps:
a. Display the west OPT-BST card in card view.
b. Click the Provisioning > Optical Line > Optics Thresholds tabs.
c. Under Types, click Alarms, then click Refresh.
d. Locate the Port 2 Power Failure Low parameter. Double-click the table cell and change the value to
–30 dBm.
e. Locate the Port 4 Power Failure Low parameter. Double-click the table cell and change the value to
–40 dBm.
f. Click Apply, and then Ye s .
g. Wait 90 seconds, then in node view click the Alarms tab. Verify that the LOS alarm on the west
OPT-BST card has cleared. If so, continue with Step 11. If not, disconnect the OSCM card from the
OPT-BST.
h. Create a loopback on the OSCM card by connecting a patch cable from the OSC TX port to the OSC
RX port using a 10-dB bulk attenuator.
i. Wait 90 seconds, then in node view click the Alarms tab. Verify that the LOS alarm on the west
OSCM card has cleared. If so, replace the OPT-BST card. If not, replace the OSCM card. See
the“NTP-G30 Install the DWDM Cards” procedure on page 3-39.
Step 11 If an OPT-PRE card is installed on the east side, complete the “DLP-G80 Verify the OPT-PRE Amplifier
Laser and Power” task on page 4-41. If not, continue with Step 12.
Step 12 Complete the “DLP-G79 Verify the OPT-BST Amplifier Laser and Power” task on page 4-40 for the
west OPT-BST amplifier.
Step 13 If an OPT-PRE amplifier is installed on the west side, complete the “DLP-G80 Verify the OPT-PRE
Amplifier Laser and Power” task on page 4-41. It not, continue with continue with Step 14.
