DLP-G94 Verify Add and Drop Connections on OADM Node with OSC-CSM
Cards
Note In this task, you will verify add and drop connections in the following order: east-to-west and
west-to-east drop: Steps 1 through 15; west-to-east add and east-to-west drop: Steps 16 through 17.
Step 1 Based on the Cisco MetroPlanner site configuration file, tune the tunable laser or TXP_MR_2.5G card
to a wavelength (belonging to the 100-GHz ITU-T grid) of the channel running on the first add path of
the first west AD-xC-xx.x or west 4MD-xx.x card on the east-to-west direction. Refer to the tunable laser
manufacturer’s documentation or the “DLP-G268 Provision TXP_MR_2.5G Cards for Acceptance
Testing” task on page 4-4.
Step 2 Connect the tunable laser transmitter or the TXP_MR_2.5G card DWDM TX port to the corresponding
15xx.x RX port (on the card front panel) of the west AD-xC-xx.x or 4MD-xx.x card.
Step 3 Verify the west AD-xC-xx.x or 4MD-xx.x (east-to-west):
a. Display the west AD-xC-xx.x or 4MD-xx.x card in card view.
b. Click the Provisioning > Optical Chn > Parameters tabs.
c. Change the Admin State of the CHAN RX port to OOS,MT (ANSI) or Locked,maintenance
(ETSI) for the channel related to the wavelength selected on the tunable laser.
d. Verify that the Power value of the CHAN RX port reaches the provisioned setpoint (VOA Power
Ref).
Step 4 Complete the “DLP-G80 Verify the OPT-PRE Amplifier Laser and Power” task on page 4-41 on the
west OPT-PRE amplifier to verify that the added wavelength turns on the laser.
Step 5 If the add connection uses a 4MD-xx.x card, continue with Step 6. If the add connection uses an
AD-xC-xx.x card, move to Step 10.
Step 6 Verify the west AD-xB-xx.x:
a. Display the west AD-xB-xx.x card in card view.
b. Click the Provisioning > Optical Band > Parameters tabs.
c. Change the Admin State of the BAND TX port to OOS,MT (ANSI) or Locked,maintenance
(ETSI) for the channel related to the wavelength selected on the tunable laser.
d. Verify that the Power value of the BAND TX port is higher than the default no-power value of
–30 dBm.
Step 7 Display the related AD-xB-xx.x card (west-to-east direction) in card view.
Purpose This task verifies the add and drop channel connections for an OADM node
with OSC-CSM cards installed.
Tools/Equipment A tunable laser or eight TXP_MR_2.5G cards covering the 32 C-band
wavelengths (see Table 4-1 on page 4-4)
