Chapter 6 Cabling the GBE Line Ports and Completing the Installation
Cabling the GBE Line Interface Ports
Step 1 Take the fiber optic cable (see SFP Module Cabling and Connection Equipment, page 6-7) from the
subscriber or network element and plug it into the appropriate port on the external bypass module.
Step 2 Using a cable with LC connectors on both ends, plug one end into the appropriate port on the external
bypass module and the other end into the appropriate line interface in slot #3 of the SCE8000 GBE
chassis.
Step 3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 for all traffic links.
Step 4 Using the control cable provided, which has RJ11 connectors on both ends, plug one end into the CNTRL
interface on the external bypass module (see Figure 6-4) and plug the other end into the External Bypass
interface on the SCE8000-SCM-E in slot #1 of the SCE8000 GBE chassis (see item #1 in Figure 6-5
below).
If using only two external bypass modules, use one ‘’Y’ control cable. Plug the short ends of the ‘Y’ into
the CNTL ports on the two bypass modules and the long leg of the ‘Y’ into the External Bypass port #1
on the SCE8000-SCM-E in slot #1
If using four external bypass modules, use two control cables and both External Bypass ports on the
SCE8000-SCM-E in slot #1.
Step 5 Complete the installation and powering up of the SCE8000 GBE.
By its nature, the optic bypass module will not connect the link to the SCE8000-SIP module until the
entire SCE8000 GBE system is fully functional. It is necessary to bring the SCE8000 GBE to fully
operational, non-bypassed status, in order to confirm correct functioning of the link through the optic
bypass module to the SCE8000-SIP module.
Step 6 Verify link connectivity by checking that the link LED on the GBE interface is green, or by using the
show interface GigabitEthernet command (see How to View the Gigabit Ethernet Port Status,
page 6-11).
