Cisco ONS 15454 - DLP-G376 Installing Fiber-Optic Cables on the Y-Cable Modules in the Y-Cable Module Tray

When you close the fiber-storage tray, the cables must not be pinched, and the cable bend radius
must be equal to or greater than the minimum radius that is recommended in your site specifications.
As you route each cable through the fiber-storage tray, make sure that adequate cable slack remains.
Caution
Step 3 Install a fiber-optic cable between the client device and the Y-cable module where you just installed a fiber-optic
cable to the TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, or 10GE_XPE card.
Step 4 Repeat Steps 1 through 3 for each Y-cable module you need to use for Y-cable protection.
Step 5 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

Step 2 On each Y-cable module you will connect, use the tab to slide the module up so that it is fully extended and
easily accessible in the tray.
Step 3 Referring to the Cisco Transport Planner Internal Connections Report, install a 4-meter (13.12-foot) fiber-optic
cable (single-mode or multimode, as appropriate) between a TXP, MXP, GE_XP, 10GE_XP, GE_XPE, or
10GE_XPE card and the Y-cable module installed farthest to the left. Proceed according to the port label
affixed to the front of the tray to identify the ports on each installed module.
