The following information 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 ru les.
These specifications are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However , there is no gua rantee
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 o wn 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.

Installation Overview
1.1 Installation Overview
When installed in an equipment rack, the ONS 15327 assembly is typically connected to a fuse and alarm
panel that provides centralized alarm connection points and distributed power for the ONS 15327. Fuse
and alarm panels are third-party equipment and are not described in this documentation. If you are
unsure about the requirements or specifications for a fuse and alarm panel, consult the documentation
for that product.
You can mount the ONS 15327 in a 19- or 23-inch rack. Including the fan tray, the shelf assembly weighs
approximately 15 pounds without cards installed and 27 pounds fully loaded. An ONS 15327 is installed
in a rack using reversible mounting brackets on each side of the shelf.
You can access the ONS 15327 cards, cables, connectors, power feeds, and fan tray through the front of
the shelf assembly only. The CRIT, MAJ, MIN, and REM alarm LEDs visible on the XTC faceplate
indicate whether a Critical, Major, Minor, or Remote alarm is present anywhere on the ONS 15327
assembly. These LEDs help you to quickly determine if any alarms are present on the assembly.
The ONS 15327 is powered using -48V DC power. Positive and negative power terminals are accessible
on the front panel.

Rack Installation
Note In this chapter, the terms “ONS 15327” 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 15327 refers to the entire system, both
hardware and software.
1.3 Rack Installation
The ONS 15327 is easily mounted in a 19- or 23-inch equipment rack. The shelf assembly projects 2
inches from the front of the rack. It mounts in both EIA-standard and Telcordia-standard racks. The shelf
assembly is a total of 17 inches wide with no mounting ears attached. With the mounting ears attached,
the shelf assembly is 19 inches wide.
The ONS 15327 measures 5.1 inches high, 19 or 23 inches wide (depending on which way the mounting
ears are attached), and 11 inches deep (13 x 48.3 x 28 cm). Figure 1-1 shows the dimensions of the ONS
15327 shelf assembly.

1.3.1 Reversible Mounting Bracket
Caution Use only the fastening hardware provided with the ONS 15327 to prevent loosening, deterioration, and
electromechanical corrosion of the hardware and joined material.
Caution When mounting the ONS 15327 in a frame with a non-conductive coating (such as paint, lacquer, or
enamel) use either the thread-forming screws provided with the ONS 15327 shipping kit or remove the
coating from the threads to ensure electrical continuity.
The shelf assembly comes with mounting brackets that can be reversed for use with a 19- or 23-inch rack.
The following steps describe how to reverse the shelf assembly mounting bracket to fit a 19- inch rack.
Procedure: Reverse the Mounting Bracket to Fit a 19-Inch Rack
Step 1 Remove the screws that attach the mounting bracket to the side of the shelf assembly.
Rack Installation
Step 2 Flip the detached mounting bracket upside down. Text imprinted on the mounting bracket will now also
be upside down.
Step 3 Place the wider side of the mounting bracket flush against the shelf assembly (see Figure 1-2).
The narrower side of the mounting bracket should be towards the front of the shelf assembly. Text
imprinted on the mounting bracket should be visible and upside down.
Step 4 Align the mounting bracket screw holes against the shelf assembly screw holes.
Step 5 Insert the screws that were removed in Step 1 and tighten them.
Step 6 Repeat the procedure for the mounting bracket on the opposite side.

1.4 Fan-Tray Assembly Installation
Facing the front of the ONS 15327, the fan-tray assembly is located on the right-hand side. The fan tray
is a removable drawer that holds fans and fan-control circuitry for the ONS 15327. After you install the
fan tray, you should not need to remove it unless a fan failure occurs or you need to replace, inspect or
clean the fan-tray air filter.
The fan-tray assembly has an air filter on the right side of the fan tray that you can install and remove
by hand. Remove and visually inspect this filter every 30 days. For inspection procedures, refer to the
“Air Filter Inspection and Replacement” section on page 12-2. Spare filters should be kept in stock. If
you are replacing the air filter, you must first move aside the cables that cross in front of it. You must
install the air filter with its metal bracing against the fan tray.

1.5 Power and Ground Installation
This section describes how to connect the ONS 15327 shelf assembly to the power supply. Terminate the
chassis ground to either the office ground or rack ground before you install the power. Use the grounding
lug to attach the ground cable to the shelf assembly according to local site practice.
Warning
Warning
Warning
Warning
This equipment must be grounded.
When installing the node, you must connect the ground first and disconnect it last.
You only ground one cable to ground the shelf assembly. Terminate the other end of the rack ground
cable to ground according to local site practice.
If the system loses power or both XTC cards are reset, you must reset the ONS 15327 clock unless the
node has been previously provisioned to use Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) to update the clock
over the LAN.
Do not apply power to the ONS 15327 until you complete all installation steps.
Before performing any of the following procedures, ensure that the power is removed from the DC
circuit. To ensure that all power is OFF, locate the circuit breaker on the panel board that services the
DC circuit, switch the circuit breaker to the OFF position, and tape the switch handle of the circuit
breaker in the OFF position.

Chapter 1 Hardware Installation
Caution Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with a powered ONS 15327. Plug the wristband
cable into the ESD jack located between the top high-speed and XTC slots.
Power and Ground Installation
Warning
Do not mix conductors of dissimilar metals in a terminal or splicing connector where physical contact
occurs (such as copper and aluminum, or copper and copper-clad aluminum), unless the device is
suited for the purpose and conditions of use.
Use the following wiring conventions:
• Red wire for battery (-48V DC) connections
• Black wire for battery return (0V DC) connections
Note Use an external disconnect for service purposes and install it according to local site practice.
The ONS 15327 has redundant -48V DC power terminals on the MICs. The terminals are labeled PWR
A and PWR B and are located on the far right-hand side of the MICs if you are facing the shelf assembly.
Both MIC A and MIC B must be installed to create redundant power connections.
To install redundant power feeds, use four power cables and one ground cable. For a single power feed,
only two power cables and one ground cable are required. Use #12 AWG cable and, to ensure circuit
overcurrent protection, use a conductor with low impedance. However, the conductor must have the
capability to safely conduct any fault current that might be imposed. Do not use aluminum conductors.
The MIC power connector is shipped with the fastening screws inserted but not tightened. The screws
may have tightened due to vibration during shipping. Make sure the screws are loose before attempting
to remove the connector.
Warning
Warning
A readily accessible two-poled disconnect device must be incorporated in the fixed wiring.
Connect the unit only to DC power source that complies with the Safety Extra-Low Voltage (SELV)
requirements in IEC 60950 based safety standards.
Procedure: Install Redundant Power Feeds
Step 1 Terminate the chassis ground to either the office ground or rack ground.
The ground connection point is located on the left-hand side panel as you face the ONS 15327.
Note To ensure that the equipment is properly grounded, use the provided 12 AWG dual-hole
grounding lug and the #10-32 x 3/8 pan head phillips power lug screws to connect the ground
cable to the chassis. Apply 30-36 in.-lbs of torque when tightening the screws.
Step 2 Measure and cut the cables as needed to reach the ONS 15327 from the fuse panel. Use the correct size
fuse for each power lead.
Step 3 Dress the power and ground cables according to local site practice.

1.9 Cable Description and Installation
This section explains how to install fiber-optic, DS-3 (coaxial), DS-1 (CHAMP), and twisted-pair cables.
1.9.1 Cabling Types
ONS 15327 cables use cable guides at each side of the front of the shelf assembly to economize shelf
space and facilitate cable management. The following types of cables are used with the ONS 15327:
• Optical Cables: Optical cables connect to the SC connectors on the faceplate of the OC-12 and
OC-48 cards and the LC connectors on the OC-3 cards (described in the “Fiber Cable Installation”
section on page 1-23). Make sure the fiber cables do not bend excessively; maintaining a proper
bend radius prevents damage to the optical cable.
Cable Description and Installation
• Coaxial Cables: Coaxial cables connect to the MICs on the ONS 15327 using BNC cable connectors.
Coaxial cables carry DS-3 traffic to and from the ONS 15327. The ONS 15327 supports up to three
transmit and three receive coaxial connectors on each shelf assembly.
• CHAMP Cables: CHAMP cables connect to MICs on the ONS 15327 using CHAMP cable
connectors. Each CHAMP connector on the MIC supports one CHAMP cable connection for a total
of two connectors per node. Each CHAMP connector supports a maximum of 14 DS-1s. See the
“DS-1 Cable Installation” section on page 1-25 for more information about the CHAMP cables and
connectors.
• Twisted-pair Cables: Twisted-pair cables connect to the ports on the Ethernet card, the Alarm and
BITS ports on the MICs, and the LAN port on the XTCs. The twisted-pair cables use RJ-45
connectors. The Ethernet card ports and the LAN ports use a standard straight-through cable.
Connecting to either the BITS or Alarm ports requires special cables described in the “Alarm Cable
Installation” section on page 1-27 and the “BITS Cable Installation” section on page 1-28.
1.9.2 Cable Installation Overview
Because the ONS 15327 supports a large number of interfaces on the front panel, proper cable
management and the correct cabling sequence during installation are required.
1.9.2.1 Cable Guides
The ONS 15327 has cable guides located on each side of the front of the shelf assembly. The cable guides
ensure that the proper bend radius is maintained in the fibers and that all other cables are properly routed.
To remove cable guides, take out the screws that anchor them to the side of the shelf assembly.

Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge wristband when working with a powered ONS 15327.
Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located between the top high-speed and XTC slots.
ONS 15327 OC-12 and OC-48 cards have SC connectors and the OC-3 cards have LC connectors. To
install fiber-optic cables in the ONS 15327, a fiber cable with the corresponding connector type must be
connected to the transmit and receive ports on the ONS 15327 cards. On ONS 15327 OC-12 and OC-48
card ports, the left-hand connector is the transmit port and the right-hand connector is the receive port.
Cisco recommends that you label the transmit and receive ports and the working and protection fibers at
each end of the fiber span to avoid confusion with cables that are similar in appearance.

MIC connection point.
Step 3 Gently push the connector down until the notch on the MIC connector slides into the slot on the cable
connector.
Step 4 Turn the cable connector until the notch clicks into place.
Step 5 Route the cables to the nearest side of the shelf assembly through the side cutouts according to local site
practice.
Label all cables at each end of the connection to avoid confusion with cables that are similar in
appearance.
1.9.5 DS-1 Cable Installation
DS-1s support CHAMP connector cabling. This section provides information about the DS-1 cables and
connectors.
Installing CHAMP connector DS-1 cables requires 64-pin bundled cable connectors with a 64-pin
female CHAMP connector. You need CHAMP connector #552276-1 for the receptacle side and
#1-552496-1 for the right-angle shell housing, or their functional equivalents. The corresponding 64-pin
male CHAMP connector on the MIC supports one receive (in) and one transmit (out) for each DS-1 port
for the corresponding XTC.
Because each DS1-14 connection supports 14 DS-1 ports, only 56 pins (28 pairs) of the 64-pin connector
are used. Prepare one 56-wire cable for each DS-1 connection. Ta ble 1-4 shows the pin assignments for
the CHAMP connectors on the ONS 15327 MICs.

Software Installation
Cisco Transport Controller (CTC), the Cisco ONS 15327’s software interface, is stored on the XTC card
and downloads to your workstation each time you log into the ONS 15327. This chapter:
• Describes how Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) software is installed on PCs and Solaris
workstations
• Tells you how to connect PCs and Solaris workstations to the Cisco ONS 15327, including direct
connections, LAN connections, remote connections, and firewall-compliant connections
• Describes the CTC graphic user interface, including the three main CTC views, network, node, and
card
• Explains how to create domains to manage multiple nodes, change the network view background
color and image (map), and add a node to the network map
• Describes the different ways you can invoke commands within CTC
• Explains how to print and export CTC data
2.1 Installation Overview
ONS 15327 provisioning and administration is performed using the Cisco Transport Controller software.
CTC is a Java application that is installed in two locations:
• ONS 15327 Cross Connect Timing and Control card (XTC)
• PCs and Solaris workstations that connect to the ONS 15327
CTC software is pre-installed on the XTC card. The only time you install software on the XTC card is
when you upgrade from one CTC release to another. To upgrade CTC on the XTC card, you must follow
the upgrade procedures specific to the software release. These procedures can be downloaded from the
Cisco website (www.cisco.com).
For PCs and Solaris workstations, CTC is downloaded from the XTC card and installed on your
computer automatically after you connect to the ONS 15327. To connect to an ONS 15327, you enter the
ONS 15327 IP address in the URL field of a web browser, such as Netscape Navigator or Microsoft®
Internet Explorer. After connecting to an ONS 15327, the following installation occurs automatically:
1. A CTC launcher applet is downloaded from the XTC card to your computer’s Temp directory. (If
these files are deleted, they are reinstalled the next time you connect to the ONS 15327.)
2. The launcher determines whether your computer has a CTC release matching the release on the
ONS 15327 XTC card.

Computer Requirements
Note You can also use TL1 commands to communicate with the Cisco ONS 15327 through VT100
Chapter 2 Software Installation
3. If the computer does not have CTC installed, or if the installed release is older than the XTC card
version, the launcher downloads the CTC program files from the XTC card.
4. The launcher starts CTC. The CTC session is separate from the web browser session, so the web
browser is no longer needed. If you log into an ONS 15327 that is connected to ONS 15327s with
older versions of CTC, or to Cisco ONS 15454s, CTC “element” files are downloaded automatically
to enable you to interact with those nodes. You cannot interact with nodes on the network that have
a software version later than the node that you are logged into. Therefore, always log into nodes
having the latest software release.
Each ONS 15327 can handle up to four network-level CTC sessions (the login node and its
DCC-connected nodes) and one node-level session (login node only) at one time. CTC performance may
vary, depending upon the volume of activity in each session.
terminals and VT100 emulation software, or you can telnet to an ONS 15327 using TL1 port 3083.
See the Cisco ONS 15454 and Cisco ONS 15327 TL1 Command Guide for a comprehensive list of
TL1 commands.
2.2 Computer Requirements
To use CTC in ONS 15327 Release 3.3, your computer must have a web browser with the correct Java
Runtime Environment (JRE) installed. The correct JRE for each CTC software release is included on the
Cisco ONS 15327 software CD. If you are running multiple CTC software releases on a network, the
JRE installed on your computer must be compatible with the different software releases. Ta b l e 2-1 shows
JRE compatibility with ONS software releases.

Requirements for PCs and Solaris workstations are provided in Tab le 2-2 . A modified java.policy file
must also be installed. In addition to Netscape Communicator and the JRE, also included on the ONS
15327 software CD and the ONS 15327 documentation CD are the Java plug-in and modified java.policy
file.

Procedure: Set up a Solaris Workstation for Craft Connection to an ONS 15327
Use this procedure to connect your workstation directly to the ONS 15327.
Note This procedure employs the ONS 15327 automatic host detection to allow you to directly connect to
multiple ONS 15327s successively without reconfiguring your workstation’s IP address. However, if
proxy server is not enabled on the ONS 15327, DCC-connected nodes on different subnets will not be
visible.
Step 1 Choose a cable connection method:
• RJ-45 jack on the ONS 15327 XTC: Attach a CAT-5 cable from the workstation’s NIC card to the
RJ-45 jack on the ONS 15327 XTC.
• Hub or switch: Attach a CAT-5 cable from the workstation’s NIC card to the RJ-45 jack on a hub
or switch to which the ONS 15327 is physically connected.
Step 2 Log into the workstation as the root user.
Step 3 Check to see if the interface is plumbed by typing:
# ifconfig <device>
For example: # ifconfig hme1
a. If the interface is plumbed, a message similar to the following appears:
hme1:flags=1000842<BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST,IPv4>mtu 1500 index 2 inet 0.0.0.0
netmask 0. Go to Step 4.
b. If the interface is not plumbed, a message similar to the following appears: ifconfig: status:
SIOCGLIFFLAGS: hme1: no such interface. Plumb the interface by typing:
# if config <device> plumb
For example: ifconfig hme1 plumb
Step 4 Configure the IP address on the interface by typing:
#ifconfig <interface> <ip address> netmask <netmask> up
For example: #ifconfig hme0 10.20.30.40 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
Note Enter an IP address that is identical to the ONS 15327 IP address except for the last three
digits. The last three digits must be between 1 and 254. In the Subnet Mask field, type
255.255.255.0.

Step 5 Test the connection:
a. Start Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer.
b. Enter the Cisco ONS 15327 IP address in the web address (URL) field. If the connection is
established, a Java Console window, CTC caching messages, and the Cisco Transport Controller
Login dialog box display. If this occurs, go to Step 2 of the “Log into the ONS 15327” procedure on
page 2-24 to complete the login. If the Login dialog box does not appear, complete Steps c and d.

c. At the prompt, type:
ping [ONS 15327 IP address]
For example, you would type “ping 192.168.1.1” to connect to an ONS 15327 with default IP
address 192.168.1.1. If your workstation is connected to the ONS 15327, an “[IP address] is alive”
message displays.
Note Skip this step if “Craft Access Only” from Provisioning > Network > General > Gateway
d. If CTC is not responding, a “Request timed out” message displays. Verify IP and submask
information. Check that the cables connecting the workstation to the ONS 15327 are securely
attached. Check the Link Status by typing:
#ndd -set /dev/<device> instance 0
#ndd -get /dev/<device> link_status
For example:
Chapter 2 Software Installation
Settings is checked.
#ndd -set /dev/hme instance 0
#ndd -get /dev/hme link_status
The result of 1 means the link is up. The result of 0 means the link is down.
Note Check the man page for ndd. For example: #man ndd
Step 6 After you set up your workstation, you can go to the “Log into the ONS 15327” procedure on page 2-24
to log into the ONS 15327.
Procedure: Set Up a Computer for a Corporate LAN Connection
Use this task to set up your computer to access the ONS 15327 through a corporate LAN.
Step 1 If your computer is connected to the corporate LAN, go to Step 2. If you changed your computer’s
network settings for direct access to the ONS 15327, change the settings back to the corporate LAN
access settings. This generally means:
• Set the IP Address on the TCP/IP dialog box back to “Obtain an IP address automatically” (Windows
95/98) or “Obtain an IP address from a DHCP server” (Windows NT/2000).
• If your LAN requires that DNS or WINS be enabled, change the setting on the DNS Configuration
or WINS Configuration tab of the TCP/IP dialog box.
