Procedure
Step 1 Referring to the Cisco Transport Planner Internal Connections Report, install a fiber-optic cable between a
TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, 10GE_XPE, AR_MXP, AR_XP, or AR_XPE card and a Y-cable
module.
If you want to protect one client signal or protect two client signals using a single Y-cable module, connect
the fiber-optic cables according to the following tables.
Table 5: Cable Connections for Y-Cable Protection of One Client Signal
To (Y-Cable Port Number)From
10Client 1 TX port
5Client 1 RX port

Step 2 As needed, route slack fiber-optic cable around the round cable retainers in the fiber-storage tray as you install
cables between the Y-cable module and the TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, or 10GE_XPE cards
(Figure 2: Fiber-Storage Tray, on page 29).
