8. Look at the report, verify that the protection
quad slots to be used do not appear in the
cross-connect column. If a cross-connection is
shown, then traffic is possible at the quad.
Is there a cross-connection shown for any of the
four required protection slots?
If YES, then consult with your supervisor
and make certain that the quad specified in
the work order is correct, is to be used as
the protection link, and that the quad is not
currently supporting traffic. If the quad is
supporting traffic, then – either a different
quad must be selected or the traffic must be
moved. STOP! You cannot re-start this
procedure until this issue is resolved.
If NO, then go to Step 20.

9.
NOTE:
At this point you have determined that the
protection quad slots to be used are
already equipped with an electrical circuit
pack (either a DS3 or STS-1E). You must
still determine whether, or not, the circuit
pack is supporting traffic.
Are coaxial cables already connected to the
DS3/STS-1E circuit pack via the DSX
cross-connect panel associated with this shelf
and slot?
If NO, then it is available, go to Step 12.
If YES, then continue with Step 10.

10. Determine whether the quad already has
cross-connects defined. At the CIT, select the
CONFIGURATION-Retrieve-Crossconnect
ion-All command for this slot.
