THE SPECIFICATIONS AND INFORMATION REGARDING THE PRODUCTS IN THIS MANUAL ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. ALL STATEMENTS, INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS IN THIS MANUAL ARE BELIEVED TO BE ACCURATE BUT ARE PRESENTED WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. USERS MUST TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR APPLICATION OF ANY PRODUCTS.

THE SOFTWARE LICENSE AND LIMITED WARRANTY FOR THE ACCOMPANYING PRODUCT ARE SET FORTH IN THE INFORMATION PACKET THAT SHIPPED WITH THE PRODUCT AND ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY THIS REFERENCE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE SOFTWARE LICENSE OR LIMITED WARRANTY, CONTACT YOUR CISCO REPRESENTATIVE FOR A COPY.

The following inform ation is for FCC compliance of Class A devices: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio-frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference, in which case users will be required to correct the interference at their own expense.

The following information is for FCC compliance of Class B devices: The equipment described in this manual generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the specifications in part 15 of the FCC rules. These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

Modifying the equipment without Cisco’s written authorization may result in the equipment no longer complying with FCC requirements for Class A or Class B digital devices. In that event, your right to use the equipment may be limited by FCC regulations, and you may be required to correct any interference to radio or television communications at your own expense.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modifications to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

1.1 Overview

Chapter 1 Shelf and FMEC Hardware

documentation. If you are unsure about the requirements or specifications for a fuse and alarm panel, consult the user documentation for the related equipment. The front door of the ONS 15454 SDH allows access to the shelf assembly, fan-tray assembly, and cable-management area. The FMEC cover at the top of the shelf allows access to power connectors, external alarms and controls, timing input and output, and craft interface terminals.

You can mount the ONS 15454 SDH in an ETSI rack. The shelf assembly weighs approximately 26 kg (57 pounds) with no cards installed. The shelf assembly includes a front door and a Front Mount Electrical Connection (FMEC) cover for added security, a fan tray module for cooling, and extensive cable-management space.

All ONS 15454 SDH optical cards have SC connectors on the card faceplate, except the STM-1SH 1310-8 card, which has LC connectors. Fiber-optic cables are routed into the front of the optical and Ethernet cards. Electrical cards (E-1, E-3, DS3i, STM-1E) require FMEC cards to provide the cable connection points for the shelf assembly.

The ONS 15454 SDH is powered using –48VDC power. Negative, return, and ground power terminals are connected via the MIC-A/P and the MIC-C/T/P cards.

Note In this chapter, the terms “ONS 15454 SDH” and “shelf assembly” are used interchangeably. In the

installation context, these terms have the same meaning. Otherwise, shelf assembly refers to the physical steel enclosure that holds cards and connects power, and ONS 15454 SDH refers to the entire system, both hardware and software.

Install the ONS 15454 SDH in compliance with your local and national electrical codes:

• United States: National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 70; United States National Electrical

Code

• Canada: Canadian Electrical Code, Part I, CSA C22.1

• Other countries: If local and national electrical codes, are not available, refer to IEC 364, Part 1

through Part 7.

1.4 E1-75/120 Conversion Panel

You need an E1-75/120 conversion panel if you want to convert the balanced 120-ohm interfaces of the E1-42 card and the corresponding FMECs to unbalanced 75-ohm interfaces.

The E1-75/120 contains eighty-four 1.0/2.3 miniature coax connectors (42 for transmit, 42 for receive) to the customer side and two Molex 96-pin LFH connectors to the E1-42 FMEC 120-ohm side. Each of the Molex 96-pin LFH connectors connects 21 inputs and 21 outputs. The E1-75/120 conversion panel is intended to be used in digital distribution frames (DDFs), ETSI racks, and ANSI racks.

You can install the E1-75/120 conversion panel in the rack of your ONS 15454 SDH or in a nearby rack. If you install the E1-75/120 conversion panel in a place where a longer cable is required, make sure that the total cable loss of the balanced 120-ohm cable and the unbalanced 75-ohm cable does not exceed the maximum allowed value. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Reference Manual for details. To ensure that the E1-75/120 conversion panel is secure, use one or two M6 mounting screws for each side of the shelf assembly. Figure 1-6 on page 1-10 shows the rack-mounting for the E1-75/120 conversion panel.

Note If required, the mounting brackets of the E1-75/120 conversion panel can be uninstalled, rotated

1.7 Cable Routing and Management

The ONS 15454 SDH cable management facilities include the following:

• A cable-routing channel (behind the fold-down door) that runs the width of the shelf assembly,

Figure 1-7

• Plastic horseshoe-shaped fiber guides at each side opening of the cable-routing channel that ensure

the proper bend radius is maintained in the fibers, Figure 1-8 on page 1-12

Note You can remove the fiber guide if necessary to create a larger opening (if you need to route

CAT-5 Ethernet cables out the side, for example). To remove the fiber guide, take out the three screws that anchor it to the side of the shelf assembly.

1.7 Cable Routing and Management

• A fold-down door that provides access to the cable-management tray

• Reversible jumper routing fins that enable you to route cables out either side by positioning the fins

as desired

Note To remove the jumper slack storage reels, take out the screw in the center of each reel.

• Optional fiber management tray (recommended for DWDM nodes)

Figure 1-7 shows the cable management facilities that you can access through the fold-down front door,

including the cable-routing channel and the jumper routing fins.

1.8 Fiber Management

The jumper routing fins are designed to route fiber jumpers out of both sides of the shelf. Slots 1 to 6 exit to the left, and Slots 12 to 17 exit to the right. Figure 1-8 shows fibers routed from cards in the left slots, down through the fins, then exiting out the fiber channel to the left. The maximum capacity of the fiber routing channel depends on the size of the fiber jumpers.

Figure 1-8 Fiber Capacity

Chapter 1 Shelf and FMEC Hardware

1-12

Table 1-3 provides the maximum capacity of the fiber channel for one side of a shelf, depending on fiber

size and number of Ethernet cables running through that fiber channel.

Table 1-3 Fiber Channel Capacity (One Side of the Shelf)

Fiber Diameter

1.6 mm (0.6 inch) 126 110 94

2 mm (0.7 inch) 80 70 60

3 mm (0.11 inch) 36 31 26

Plan your fiber size according to the number of cards/ports installed in each side of the shelf. For example, if your port combination requires 36 fibers, 3 mm (0.11 inch) fiber is adequate. If your port combination requires 68 fibers, you must use 2 mm (0.07 inch) or smaller fibers.

1.9 Fan-Tray Assembly

The fan-tray assembly is located at the bottom of the ONS 15454 SDH. After you install the fan-tray assembly, you only need to open the drawer if a fan fails, or if you need to replace or clean the fan-tray air filter. Do not operate an ONS 15454 SDH without a fan-tray air filter. Refer to the “Maintain the Node” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide for information about cleaning and maintaining the fan-tray air filter.

The fan-tray assembly is a removable drawer that holds fans and fan-control circuitry for the ONS 15454 SDH. Cisco recommends removing the front door of the chassis when removing or installing the fan-tray assembly. The front of the fan-tray assembly has an LCD screen that provides slot and port-level information for all ONS 15454 SDH card slots, including the number of critical, major, and minor alarms. For STM-N cards, you can use the LCD to determine if a port is in working or protect mode and is active or standby. It also displays whether the software load is SONET or SDH and the software version number.

The temperature measured by the TCC2/TCC2P sensors is displayed on the LCD screen.

See Figure 1-9 for the position of the fan tray assembly.

1.9.1 Fan Speed

If one or more fans fail on the fan-tray assembly, replace the entire assembly. You cannot replace individual fans. The red Fan Fail LED on the front of the fan tray illuminates when one or more fans fail. For fan tray replacement instructions, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide. The red Fan Fail LED clears after you install a working fan-tray assembly.

Fan speed is controlled by TCC2/TCC2P card temperature sensors. The sensors measure the input air temperature at the fan-tray assembly. Fan speed options are low, medium, and high. If the TCC2 card fails, the fans automatically shift to high speed. The temperature measured by the TCC2 sensors is displayed on the LCD screen.

1.9.2 Air Filter

The ONS 15454 SDH contains a reusable air filter that is installed beneath the fan-tray assembly.

The reusable filter is made of a gray, open-cell, polyurethane foam that is specially coated to provide fire and fungi resistance. Spare filters should be kept in stock. Clean the filter every three to six months. Replace the air filter every two to three years. Avoid cleaning the air filter with harsh cleaning agents or solvents.

1.12.2 Card Replacement

To replace an ONS 15454 SDH card with another card of the same type, you do not need to make any changes to the database; remove the old card and replace it with a new card. To replace a card with a card of a different type, physically remove the card and replace it with the new card, then delete the original card from CTC. For specifics, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Caution Removing any active card from the ONS 15454 SDH can result in traffic interruption. Use caution when

replacing cards and verify that only inactive or standby cards are being replaced. If the active card needs to be replaced, switch it to standby prior to removing the card from the node. For traffic switching procedures, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

Note An improper removal (IMPROPRMVL) alarm is raised whenever a card pull (reseat) is performed,

unless the card is deleted in CTC first. The alarm clears after the card replacement is complete.

Note The LAN interfaces of the TCC2 card meet the standard Ethernet specifications by supporting a cable

length of 100 m (328 ft.) at temperatures from 0 to 65 degrees Celsius (32 to 149 degrees Fahrenheit). The interfaces can operate with a cable length of 10 m (32.8 ft) maximum at temperatures from –40 to 0 degrees Celsius (–40 to 32 degrees Fahrenheit).

Note The TCC2 card supporst both –48 VDC and –60 VDC input requirements.

2.2.1 TCC2 Card Functionality

The TCC2 card supports multichannel, high-level data link control (HDLC) processing for the DCC/GCC. Up to 84 DCCs can be routed over the TCC2 card and up to 84 section DCCs can be terminated at the TCC2 card (subject to the available optical digital communication channels). The TCC2 card selects and processes 84 DCCs to facilitate remote system management interfaces.

The TCC2 card also originates and terminates a cell bus carried over the module. The cell bus supports links between any two cards in the node, which is essential for peer-to-peer communication. Peer-to-peer communication accelerates protection switching for redundant cards.

The node database, IP address, and system software are stored in TCC2 card nonvolatile memory, which allows quick recovery in the event of a power or card failure.

The TCC2 card performs all system-timing functions for each ONS 15454 SDH. It monitors the recovered clocks from each traffic card and two BITS ports for frequency accuracy. The TCC2 card selects a recovered clock, a BITS, or an internal Stratum 3 reference as the system-timing reference. You can provision any of the clock inputs as primary or secondary timing sources. A slow-reference tracking loop allows the TCC2 card to synchronize with the recovered clock, which provides holdover if the reference is lost.

The TCC2 card monitors both supply voltage inputs on the shelf. An alarm is generated if one of the supply voltage inputs has a voltage outside of the specified range.

Chapter 2 Common Control Cards

Install TCC2 cards in Slots 7 and 11 for redundancy. If the active TCC2 card fails, traffic switches to the protect TCC2 card. All TCC2 card protection switches conform to protection switching standards when the bit error rate (BER) counts are not in excess of 1 * 10 exp – 3 and completion time is less than 50 ms.

The TCC2 card has two built-in interface ports for accessing the system: an RJ-45 10BaseT LAN interface and an EIA/TIA-232 interface for local craft access. It also has a 10BaseT LAN port for user interfaces via the backplane to the port accessible on the MIC-C/T/P Front Mount Electrical Connection (FMEC).

Cisco does not support operation of the ONS 15454 SDH with only one TCC2 card. For full functionality and to safeguard your system, always operate each ONS 15454 SDH with two TCC2 cards.

Note CTC software does not monitor for the absence of FMECs unless the TCC2 card(s) have reached the

Active/Standby state. During transitional states such as power-up or TCC2 card reset, CTC ignores the FMEC inventory displayed in node view.

Note When a second TCC2 card is inserted into a node, it synchronizes its software, its backup software, and

its database with the active TCC2 card. If the software version of the new TCC2 card does not match the version on the active TCC2 card, the newly inserted TCC2 card copies from the active TCC2 card, taking about 15 to 20 minutes to complete. If the backup software version on the new TCC2 card does not match the version on the active TCC2 card, the newly inserted TCC2 card copies the backup software from the active TCC2 card again, taking about 15 to 20 minutes. Copying the database from the active TCC2 card takes about 3 minutes. Depending on the software version and backup version the new TCC2 card started with, the entire process can take between 3 and 40 minutes.

The physical connections are made using the MIC-A/P. The alarms are defined using CTC. For instructions, refer to the “Manage Alarms” chapter in the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Procedure Guide.

LEDs on the front panel of the AIC-I indicate the status of the alarm contacts: one LED representing all the inputs and one LED representing all the outputs. External alarms (input contacts) are typically used for external sensors such as open doors, temperature sensors, flood sensors, and other environmental conditions. External controls (output contacts) are typically used to drive visual or audible devices such as bells and lights, but they can control other devices such as generators, heaters, and fans.

You can program each of the sixteen input alarm contacts separately. Choices include:

• Alarm on Closure or Alarm on Open

• Alarm severity of any level (Critical, Major, Minor, Not Alarmed, Not Reported)

• Service Affecting or Non-Service Affecting alarm-service level

• 63-character alarm description for CTC display in the alarm log. You cannot assign the fan-tray

abbreviation for the alarm; the abbreviation reflects the generic name of the input contacts. The alarm condition remains raised until the external input stops driving the contact or you unprovision the alarm input.

You cannot assign the fan-tray abbreviation for the alarm; the abbreviation reflects the generic name of the input contacts. The alarm condition remains raised until the external input stops driving the contact or you provision the alarm input.

The output contacts can be provisioned to close on a trigger or to close manually. The trigger can be a local alarm severity threshold, a remote alarm severity, or a virtual wire, as follows:

• Local NE alarm severity: A hierarchy of Not Reported, Not Alarmed, Minor, Major, or Critical

alarm severities that you set to cause output closure. For example, if the trigger is set to Minor, a Minor alarm or above is the trigger.

2-18

• Remote NE alarm severity: Same as the local NE alarm severity but applies to remote alarms only.

You can also program the output alarm contacts (external controls) separately. In addition to provisionable triggers, you can manually force each external output contact to open or close. Manual operation takes precedence over any provisioned triggers that might be present.

2.7.3 Orderwire

Orderwire allows a craftsperson to plug a phone set into an ONS 15454 SDH and communicate with craftspeople working at other ONS 15454 SDHs or other facility equipment. The orderwire is a pulse code modulation (PCM) encoded voice channel that uses E1 or E2 bytes in the multiplex section overhead and in the regenerator section overhead.

The AIC-I allows simultaneous use of both local (section overhead signal) and express (line overhead signal) orderwire channels on an SDH ring or particular optics facility. Express orderwire also allows communication via regeneration sites when the regenerator is not a Cisco device.

You can provision orderwire functions with CTC similar to the current provisioning model for GCC channels. In CTC, you provision the orderwire communications network during ring turn-up so that all NEs on the ring can communicate with one another. Orderwire terminations (that is, the optics facilities that receive and process the orderwire channels) are provisionable. Both express and local orderwire can be configured as on or off on a particular SDH facility. The ONS 15454 SDH supports up to four orderwire channel terminations per shelf. This allows linear, single ring, dual ring, and small hub-and-spoke configurations. Keep in mind that orderwire is not protected in ring topologies such as multiplex section-shared protection ring (MS-SPRing) and subnetwork connection protection (SNCP).

2.7.3 Orderwire

virtual wire on external outputs 1 through 4 when the alarm input is an event. You can provision a signal on any virtual wire as a trigger for an external control output.

Caution Do not configure orderwire loops. Orderwire loops cause feedback that disables the orderwire channel.

The ONS 15454 SDH implementation of both local and express orderwire is broadcast in nature. The line acts as a party line. Anyone who picks up the orderwire channel can communicate with all other participants on the connected orderwire subnetwork. The local orderwire party line is separate from the express orderwire party line. Up to four STM-N facilities for each local and express orderwire are provisionable as orderwire paths.

Note The OC3 IR 4/STM1 SH 1310 card does not support the express orderwire (EOW) channel.

The AIC-I supports selective dual tone multifrequency (DTMF) dialing for telephony connectivity, which causes specific or all ONS 15454 SDH AIC-Is on the orderwire subnetwork to “ring.” The ringer/buzzer resides on the AIC-I. There is also a “ring” LED that mimics the AIC-I ringer. It flashes when a call is received on the orderwire subnetwork. A party line call is initiated by pressing *0000 on the DTMF pad. Individual dialing is initiated by pressing * and the individual four-digit number on the DTMF pad. The station number of the node is provisioned in CTC.

The orderwire ports are standard RJ-11 receptacles. The pins on the orderwire ports correspond to the tip and ring orderwire assignments.

3.5.1 DS3i-N-12 Card Functionality

The DS3i-N-12 can detect several different errored logic bits within a DS-3 frame. This function lets the ONS 15454 SDH identify a degrading DS-3 facility caused by upstream electronics (DS-3 Framer). In addition, DS-3 frame format autodetection and J1 path trace are supported. By monitoring additional overhead in the DS-3 frame, subtle network degradations can be detected.

The DS3i-n-12 can also aggregate DS3 and E1 traffic and transport it between SONET and SDH networks through AU4/STS 3 trunks, with the ability to add and drop DS3s to an STS3 trunk at intermediate nodes.

The following list summarizes the DS3i-N-12 card features:

• Provisionable framing format (M23, C-bit, or unframed)

• Autorecognition and provisioning of incoming framing

• VC-3 payload mapping as per ITU-T G.707

• Idle signal (“1100”) monitoring as per Telcordia GR-499-CORE

• P-bit monitoring

3.5.2 DS3i-N-12 Card-Level Indicators

• C-bit parity monitoring

• X-bit monitoring

• M-bit monitoring

• F-bit monitoring

• Far-end block error (FEBE) monitoring

• Far-end alarm and control (FEAC) status and loop code detection

• Path trace byte support with TIM-P alarm generation

You can install the DS3i-N-12 card in Slots 1 to 5 and 13 to 17. Each DS3i-N-12 port features DS-N-level outputs supporting distances up to 137 m (450 feet). With FMEC-E3/DS3, the card supports

1.0/2.3 miniature coax nonbalanced connectors.

Note The lowest level cross-connect with the XC10G card is STM-1. Lower level signals, such as E-1, DS-3,

or E-3, can be dropped. This might leave part of the bandwidth unused. The lowest level cross-connect with the XC-VXL-10G card and the XC-VXL-2.5G card is VC-12 (2.048 Mbps).
