Note To simplify subnetwork connection protection (SNCP) to multiplex section-shared protection ring

(MS-SPRing) conversion and node addition, install optical cards according to an east (Slots 12 and 13)
to west (Slots 5 and 6) configuration. This configuration is not mandatory.

Note If you install a card incorrectly, the FAIL LED flashes continuously.

Note During the boot process, a Locked-enabled, disabled STM-N port will output a line alarm indication

signal (AIS-L) to any Unlocked-enabled far-end receivers. See the Cisco ONS 15310-MA SDH
Troubleshooting Guide for further information about the AIS-L condition.

Step 1 Install higher-capacity cards first; for example, install an STM-64 card before installing an STM-12 card.

Let each card completely boot before installing the next card.

Note “OC192SR1/STM64IO Short Reach” and “OC192/STM64 Any Reach” are the titles that appear

on the faceplates of the STM64-XFP cards. In CTC, the cards are abbreviated as STM64-XFP.

• The red FAIL LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds.

• All LEDs blink once and turn off for 5 to 10 seconds.

• The ACT or ACT/STBY LED turns on. The signal fail (SF) LED can persist until all card ports

connect to their far-end counterparts and a signal is present.

Note The booting STM-N card will send an AIS-L to the far-end receiver as long as it is

Locked-enabled, disabled.

Step 6 If the card does not boot up properly, or the LED activity does not mimic Step 5, check the following:

• When a physical card type does not match the type of card provisioned for that slot in CTC, the card

might not boot. If an optical card does not boot, open CTC and verify that the slot is not provisioned
for a different card type before assuming the card is faulty.

• If the red FAIL LED does not turn on, check the power.

• If you insert a card into a slot provisioned for a different card, all LEDs turn off.

• If the red FAIL LED is illuminated continuously or the LEDs behave erratically, the card is not

installed properly. Remove the card and repeat Steps 2 to 5.

Step 7 The MRC-12 card requires SFPs and the STM64-XFP cards require XFPs to provide a fiber interface. If

you installed any of these cards, preprovision the SFP/XFP using the“NTP-H161 Preprovision an SFP

Slot” procedure on page 1-31.
