1.2 Cyan Z33 Shelf
The Cyan Z33 Industrial Temperature (I-Temp), 400 Gbps packet-optical transport shelf is a compact,
cost-effective member of the Z-Series multi-layer transport networking platforms. The system provides
multi-layer add/drop multiplexing (MADM) and transport functions in one fully integrated system. The
system’s shared mesh protection provides full protection and sub-50 ms restoration for all services.
The Z33 shelf is a smaller version of the Z77 chassis intended for lower capacity and more cost-sensitive
edge applications. Z33 deployments enable service providers to scale packet services, leverage existing
services and infrastructure. It also optimizes their networks with multi-layer networking using 2.5G CWDM
and 10G DWDM transport.
A Z33 system equipped with Z-Series interchangeable trunk-side modules can be configured to support a
variety of network functions, including:

1.2.3 Common Equipment Module (CEMi)
The CEMi I-Temp controller card provides the timing subsystem, telco alarms, inventory management, fan
control, active/standby arbitration, and an integrated DCN for the Z22 and Z33 shelves.
• Power: 8 watts typical, 10 watts maximum
• Weight: 0.96 lbs. / 435 grams
• Height: 5.8" / 147 mm
• Depth: 11.5" / 292 mm
• Width: .9" / 23 mm
• Timing: Stratum 3
• Four Ethernet interfaces:
Craft: 1 x 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45
iLAN: 2 x 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45
DCN: 1 x 100Base-FX SFP
The Data Communication Network (DCN) 100Base-FX SFP port provides an optional method for
supporting DCN management connectivity to the node.
The iLAN Ethernet interfaces provide DCN connectivity and make use of OSPF routing (iLAN to iLAN
connection). The ports are typically connected to an Ethernet switch used for management networking. The
iLAN ports can also provide IP access to secondary shelves (Z22, Z77, and other Z33 nodes). For a
description of the Z77 iLAN ports, see BOSS Termination Module starting on page 131.
Figure 4: CEMi Controller Card
Note: A CEMi I-Temp controller card and a standard CEM C-Temp controller card can be
co-located in the same Z33 shelf.
Important! – Multiple connections from a single CEMi controller card to different
far-end CEMi controller cards is supported in both point-toHowever, multiple connections between the Ethernet ports (fiber or copper) of two
CEMi controller cards in the same shelf should be avoided as this can result in an
inadvertent Ethernet loop that could severely impact the performance of the system.
CEMi iLAN, DCN, and MSE-1482 Connectivity Options
The CEMi iLAN and DCN ports, in combination with the MSE-1482 line card, provide several connectivity
options and features depending on the application requirements and system configuration. Two example
configurations are described below.
When used with MSE-1482 line cards, the CEMi controller cards can provide management transport
connectivity instead of installing LAD modules which are typically configured to provide the shelf
connectivity. The CEMi controller card iLAN port provides the transport connectivity between MSE-1482
line cards installed at adjacent node locations.

1.3 Cyan Z77 Shelf v2
Equipped with an optimized-mesh Optical Transport Network (OTN) switching fabric, the Cyan Z77
platform provides high performance for multiple traffic types. Z77 systems support real-time, streaming and
large bandwidth services by optimizing optical and packet layers for flexible multi-service transport ranging
from Metro Ethernet, to SONET/SDH, and wavelength services. The Z77 shared mesh protection provides
full protection and sub-50 ms restoration for all services.
The Z77 chassis utilizes a mid-plane architecture and provides sixteen line card slots. All chassis
components (including the Operations Panel) are modular and can be removed or replaced in the field. This
provides full serviceability and a simple upgrade path for future expansion. Line cards for management,
DWDM, CWDM, and client services insert in the sixteen front slots. All Z-Series modules are
hot-swappable.
Up to three Z77 shelves can be installed into a typical seven-foot equipment rack. All system functionalities
are modular so that each node has the optimal mix of optical bandwidth, service interfaces, and service
aggregation/grooming.
Z77 shelf v2 configurations range from dense optical-optical-optical (OOO) all optical junctions, to
optical-electrical-optical (OEO)-based aggregation and grooming nodes and small flexible OOO/OEO
hybrid nodes at access locations. The Z77 platform can scale from small spurs and access rings to dense
optical thoroughfares and head-end locations.
Figure 7: Z77 Shelf v2 – Front and Rear Views
The Z77, with a WSS-402 or WSS-404 module installed and paired with a passive AWG-40 optical patch
panel, provides a full ROADM with Optical-Optical-Optical (OOO) switching and optical pass through.
The WSS-402 provides 2 degrees and the WSS-404 provides 4 degrees of 40-wavelength cross-connect
capacity in a single shelf. Each WSS module provides optical add/drop multiplexing capability in the
1550nm band across pre-defined ITU channel designations with 100 GHz spacing.
RCMs or the XC-2800 switch fabric are required for PME-412, PME-216i, and/or 2.5G-LME4
applications. For example, ODU1 express cross-connects between a pair of 2.5G-LME4 line cards
or LAG member ports between a pair of PME line cards. RCMs are required for MSE-1482 (MSE
cross-card connections, pass-through traffic, and SONET/SDH protection groups) applications. For
additional information on the RCMs, see Ring Closure Modules starting on page 135.
MSE-1482 line cards can be installed in a Z77 shelf supported by the XC-2800 switch fabric. The
XC-2800 switch fabric module provides supports the MSE-1482 in a standalone muxponder
configuration. However, the XC-2800 switch fabric module does not support MSE-1482
card-to-card backplane cross-connections or protection.
To support the TSW-10G10, PSW-10G10, and PSW-618 line cards, the Z77 shelf must be
configured with XC-2800 switch fabric modules. For additional information, see XC-2800 Switch
Fabric starting on page 135.
Z77 shelves should be installed in accordance with the Cyan Z77 Installation and Safety Guide. This
ensures correct installation of modules, all associated wire management, power and grounding
requirements, and related components.
Note: The Z77 s helf v2 requires CyOS software Release 3.0 or higher. A Z77 shelf configured with
XC-2800 switch fabric modules requires CyOS software Release 4.0 or higher.

1.4 Cyan L-AMP Shelf
The Cyan Z-Series Lambda Amplifier (L-AMP) is a fully self-contained 1RU module that functions as a
bi-directional mid-span optical amplifier / repeater. Each L-AMP shelf supports bi-directional physical
layer amplification of multiple DWDM wavelengths where node-to-node optical spans are greater than
80 kilometers.
Traffic enters the L-AMP shelf from an East or West Cyan node, is appropriately attenuated, and processed
through a high performance two-stage Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) for transmission to an
upstream Cyan Z-Series platform.
The shelf also provides a 1510nm add/drop port to support an Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) carrying
Ethernet traffic for OAM.
The L-AMP shelf has all access on the front. It is designed to fit into 19-inch equipment racks, but has
extension mounting brackets for 23-inch rack installation.
Figure 8: L-AMP Shelf – Front View
Connectors on the L-AMP shelf include four types:
• System alarm outputs
• Environmental alarm inputs and outputs
• Ethernet ports (2)
• RS-232 port (reserved for future use)
The following table shows the L-AMP connection types, number / detail, and physical connectors:

Chapter 2: Z-Series Line Cards,
Modules, Optics, and Optical
Protection
This section describes each Cyan Z-Series line card, related XFP/SFP transceivers, Z-Series modules,
optical protection groups, and the Optical Protection Switch.
Cyan Z-Series systems provide an effective and economically efficient approach to scaling network
capacity while simplifying planning and operations. Optimized for packet and the transition of TDM to
packet, the Z-Series platforms support advanced Ethernet switching and transport over connection-oriented
Ethernet (COE), SONET/SDH, or wavelengths.
Recognizing the continuing role of TDM in many networks, the Z-Series platform optionally supports
advanced SONET/SDH aggregation and transport functionality. Rounding out support for wholesale,
wavelength services and the need to muxpond and transpond certain services, the Z-Series supports a
complete range of transport requirements. Driven by IPTV, VOD, 2/3/4G wireless backhaul, carrier
Ethernet and scaling Internet services, the Z-Series grooms services into discrete high-capacity 10G
wavelengths. As services scale, the Z-Series platform provides the option to transport multiple 10G
wavelengths per fiber using Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM). The Z-Series DTM-100G
module provides 100G transport services. The DTM-100G is fully compatible with existing Z-Series
DWDM components including LAD modules and WSS ROADM modules. This allows the mixing of 10G
and 100G waves over the same fiber.
Addressing the multi-layer aspect of evolving networks, the Z-Series provides multi-layer add/drop
multiplexing (MADM) and transport functions in one fully integrated system, supporting:

• Line cards and modules provide all functionality for the Z-Series nodes. By varying the line cards
selected for a node, a Z-Series shelf is configurable to support a wide range of site requirements.

2.1 LAD Modules
The 2-channel, 4-channel, 8-channel, and 40-channel Cyan Z-Series Lambda Add/Drop (LAD) 100 GHz
modules provide DWDM connectivity using thin film filter technology and optional EDFA amplification.
The modules utilize standard ITU 100 GHz channel spacing. An environmentally hardened 8-channel
module (LAD-8i) is also available for deployments in remote cabinets with the Cyan Z33 I-Temp shelf.
LAD modules provide an Optical Supervisory Channel (OSC) 100Base-FX Ethernet management channel.
The purpose of the Ethernet management channel is inter-node communication, but it can also be used to
carry other management traffic from third-party systems if an out-of-band DCN network is required.
Note: The LAD-2P and LAD-2G modules, deployed in Z22 systems, do not provide an OSC. In Z22
configurations, the PME-216i line card has an in-band management channel to provide inter-node
communication.
Several versions of the optical LAD modules are available:
• LAD-2P: 2-channel (I-Temp)
Note: The LAD-2P module provides East and West DWDM add/drop channels and standard
1310nm add/drop ports for the Z22 shelf.
• LAD-2G 2-channel (I-Temp)
Note: The LAD-2G module provides three long-reach wavelengths; East and West DWDM
add/drop channels and standard 1550nm add/drop ports for the Z22 shelf.
• LAD-4: 4-channel
• LAD-4A: 4-channel with booster amplifier
• LAD-8: 8-channel
• LAD-8i: 8-channel (I-Temp)
• LAD-8A: 8-channel with booster amplifier
• LAD-8E: 8-channel with pre-amp and booster amplifier
• LAD-8X: 8-channel with pre-amp and booster amplifier (40dB reach)
• LAD-40: 40-channel
• LAD-40E: 40-channel with pre-amp and booster amplifier

Note: LAD-8 to LAD-8A links are not supported.
LAD-40 and LAD-40E Modules Paired with the AWG-40
LAD-40 and LAD-40E modules require an associated AWG-40 Array Wave Guide module for add/drop
traffic. Individual wavelengths are added and/or dropped using the passive AWG-40 2
RU module. The
AWG-40 provides the ability to multiplex and de-multiplex any of the 40 channels supported by a LAD-40
or LAD-40E module. The AWG-40 module is connected to the LAD-40 or LAD-40E COM port through a
fiber jumper. The individual channels on the AWG-40 module are then connected to the appropriate
Z-Series line card DWDM XFP transceiver using a fiber jumper.

are housed in a standard LGX module, allowing three DCMs to be installed in a 1
RU, 19-inch rackmount
shelf/frame. The DCMs are connected to the LAD-40E Mid-stage port using a fiber jumper.
Note: If a DCM is required with a LAD-40E module, you must use a Fiber Bragg Grating DCM. If a
DCM is not required for your configuration, a 3dB loopback attenuator must be connected to the
LAD-40E Mid-stage port. The loopback attenuator is provided as part of the LAD-40E Fiber Jumper
Kit. For additional information on available DCMs, see Dispersion Compensation Modules
starting on page 151 in this guide.

2.2 DTM-8 and DTM-8G Transponder Modules
The Cyan Z-Series DTM-8 is a quad transponder module. DTM-8 modules encode Ethernet and
SONET/SDH client-side signals into a standard G.709 OTN optical channel (OTU2 DWDM) for DWDM
drop-and-insert services in the Z-Series multi-layer transport networking platforms. You can independently
provision each of the four DTM-8 transponders as 10GbE, OC-192/STM-64 SONET/SDH format, or as an
OTU2 or OTU1e regenerator.
The DTM-8G module supports two OC-192/SDH and two 10GbE drop interfaces when functioning as a
transponder. When functioning as a regenerator, it supports four wavelengths of any signal format
(OC-192/10GbE). The module is capable of encoding Ethernet and SONET/SDH signals into OTN optical
channels for DWDM drop-and-insert services in Z-Series multi-layer transport platforms. The DTM-8G
module also functions as a quad OTU2 regenerator, and supports express traffic.

2.4 PME-412 Packet Multiplexer Module
The Cyan Z-Series PME-412 module is an Ethernet Layer 2 switch with integrated OTN functionality. It is
used in the Z-Series multi-layer transport platforms. The transport module supports connection-oriented
Ethernet transport with Provider Backbone Bridging with Traffic Engineering (PBB-TE) functionality.
Each PME-412 module provides 80 Gbps of Ethernet switching capacity and supports up to four 10G XFP
interfaces, of which two have optional OTN functionality, plus twelve SFP interfaces for Gigabit Ethernet
(GE) connectivity. It is connected to another PME-412 line card across the backplane via a 20G interface to
form a protection pair of line cards supporting Link Aggregation Groups (LAG) and sub-50 ms restoration.
The PME-412 module provides an in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
A single module supports a 10G ring configuration with two 10GE and twelve GE tributaries. Two
PME-412 modules provide a protected ring configuration for 2x10G rings with 10G and 1GE tributaries.
The physical interfaces support four XFPs and twelve SFPs. The SFP ports support both optical SFP and
copper SFP modules. In optical SFP mode, it supports 1000Base-F and 100-FX mode. In copper SFP mode,
it supports 10/100/1000Base-T. You can disable auto-negotiation and provision the port speed to 10, 100, or
1000 Mbps. Line sensing of Media Dependent Interface (MDI) and Media Dependent Interface with
Crossover (MDIX) in copper SFP port connections is automatic.
Ring Closure Modules (RCMs) or the Release 4.0 (or higher) XC-2800 switch fabric modules are required
and must be installed in the Z77 horizontal Electrical Fabric Module (EFM) slots to support the following
PME-412 applications:
• Link aggregation using multiple ports between a pair of PME-412 modules
• A TESI Express connection using a pair of PME-412 modules
• An unprotected Ethernet drop over a protected TESI using a pair of PME-412 modules
Note: For PME-412 applications, the Z77 shelf is typically configured with four RCMs or the Release
4.0 (or higher) XC-2800 switch fabric. All four RCMs or XC-2800 switch fabric modules must be
installed in the Z77 horizontal EFM slots. RCM cards and the XCrequired for the Z22 or the Z33 shelf.
For additional information on the RCMs, see Ring Closure Modules starting on page 135.
For additional information on the XC-2800, see XC-2800 Switch Fabric starting on page 135.

The next graphic shows the PME-412 block diagram.
PME-412 In-Band Management Channel
The PME-412 module provides an optional in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
If the Z-Series shelf is configured with PME-412 line card and the shelf does not have a LAD or WSS/AWG
module or the traffic-carrying PME interfaces are not fiber patched to an installed LAD or WSS/AWG
module, set the 10G ETH/OTN Fiber Port Signal Type parameter (General sub-tab) to “10GE LAN”
(default). If you have a Z22 shelf with a PME line card (the Z22 LAD-2P and LAD-2G do not provide an
OSC), set the 10G ETH/OTN Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to “10GE LAN.” When the PME 10G fiber
port is provisioned with a signal type of 10GE LAN or 10GE WAN, the Topology Discovery and Routing
parameters are automatically enabled (default) and the system will use the PME line card in-band
management channel to provide node-to-node communication.
Cyan Z-Series Engineering and Planning Guide Release 5.0
If the PME-412 line card is installed in a Z33 or Z77 shelf and a LAD or WSS module is providing the OSC
and the traffic-carrying PME interfaces are fiber patched to a LAD or WSS/AWG module, Cyan
recommends that you set the PME 10G ETH/OTN Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to “OTU-2” (General
sub-tab). When the PME fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of OTU2, the Topology Discovery and
Routing parameters are automatically disabled and the PME line card 100 Mbps of bandwidth that was
reserved for the in-band management channel is returned to the PME 10G fiber port for payload. Disabling
Topology Discovery also prevents the system from displaying a topology line in addition to the OSC line to
the adjacent node in the Network view tab.
2.4.1 Synchronous Ethernet
PME-412 and PME-216i line cards support Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE). SyncE provides the following
features:
• Ability to recover timing from PME 10GE ports to be used as timing references for the system clock
generation and/or derived T1/E1 timing.
Note: PME 1000BASE-F (1G) ports cannot be used as timing references for the system clock or
derived T1/E1 timing.
• Ability to terminate the Ethernet Synchronization Messaging Channel (ESMC) to transmit and
receive Synchronization Status Messages (SSM).
• Transmit Ethernet signals that are synchronous to the system clock.
SyncE must be enabled on a per-Ethernet port basis. SyncE is disabled by default. When SyncE is enabled
on any given Ethernet port, 1GE or 10GE, its ESMC channel is activated, which allows the transmission and
reception of SSM. Additionally, if it is a PME 10GE port, it is available to be used by the timing subsystem
as a timing reference for system clock generation and/or to generate a derived T1/E1 signal to be used by the
Building Integrated Timing Source (BITS) equipment.
Although a PME 1GE port cannot be used to recover timing references, it is capable of providing a timing
reference to external equipment.

PSW-10G10 In-Band Management Channel
The PSW-10G10 module provides an optional in-band management channel of up to 100 Mbps in
bandwidth. If the Z77 shelf is configured with a PSW-10G10 line card and the shelf does not have a LAD or
WSS/AWG module or the traffic-carrying PSW interfaces are not fiber patched to an installed LAD or
WSS/AWG module, set the 10GE/OTU2 Fiber Port Signal Type parameter (General sub-tab) to "10GE
LAN" (default). When the PSW 10G fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of 10GE LAN or 10GE
WAN, the Topology Discovery and Routing parameters are automatically enabled (default) and the system
will use the PSW line card in-band management channel to provide node-to-node communication.
If the PSW-10G10 line card is installed in a Z77 shelf and a LAD or WSS/AWG module is providing the
OSC and the traffic-carrying PSW interfaces are fiber patched to a LAD or WSS/AWG module, Cyan
recommends that you set the PSW 10GE/OTU2 Fiber Port Signal Type parameter to "OTU-2" (General
sub-tab). When the PSW fiber port is provisioned with a signal type of OTU2, the Topology Discovery and
Routing parameters are automatically disabled and the PSW line card 100 Mbps of bandwidth that was
reserved for the in-band management channel is returned to the PSW 10G fiber port for payload. Disabling
Topology Discovery also prevents the system from displaying a topology line in addition to the OSC line to
the adjacent node in the 3D Network view tab.

2.8 TSW-10G10 Packet Aggregation and Transport Module
The Cyan TSW-10G10 module, designed for Z77 (Z77 and Z77 shelf v2) deployments, provides grooming
and aggregation of TESIs across 10G rings and add/drop capabilities. The TSW-10G10 serves to eliminate
existing fiber patches between PME (PME-412 or PME-216i) line cards used for aggregation; freeing up
multiple PME ports for Ethernet services.
The TSW-10G10 provides four XFP ports and six SFP+ ports. OTU2 and OTU2e with FEC are supported
on every TSW-10G10 port, as well as 10GbE LAN. The TSW-10G10 provides an optional in-band
management channel of up to 100 Mbps in bandwidth.
Working in conjunction with the XC-2800 switch fabric in a Z77 shelf, the TSW-10G10 and the switch
fabric interface supports connection oriented transport for TESI cross-connections. The XC-2800 switch
fabric is fully non-blocking across all 14 Z77 line card slots. For additional information on the XC-2800, see

2.9 LAC-8 Lambda Aggregator Module
The Cyan Z-Series Lambda Aggregator CWDM (LAC) terminal multiplexer module provides up to eight
CWDM wavelengths for use in the Z-Series multi-layer transport platforms. Each LAC module provides
optical multiplexing and demultiplexing capability in the 1470nm to 1610nm band with 20nm spacing.
Each LAC module is available with standard 8 – 20 dB link budgets that typically support up to 80-km spans
(0.25 dB/km).
The primary application of the LAC module is to increase effective fiber capacity by multiplexing multiple
optical signals over a common fiber for multiplexed CWDM transmissions or regeneration. This is achieved
through the optical add/drop capability for up to eight 2.5G wavelengths at each node on a ring or a linear
network. The LAC-8 module provides transponding and muxponding in conjunction with SFT-8 modules.
LAC modules support multiplexing and demultiplexing of wavelengths associated with Cyan Z-Series
transponders, muxponders, Ethernet switch/transport modules, third-party system or third-party CWDM
systems. Cyan LAC modules also support integrated management through an in-band Optical Supervisory
Channel (OSC).

external module is housed in an industry-standard LGX
®
form factor. The LAC-4 module is a passive
module that provides a 4-port CWDM optical mux/demux capability. It works in conjunction with the
SFT-8 module.
Channel spacing is at 20nm, following the standard CWDM wavelength grid. There are two versions of the
LAC-4P module:
• LAC-4P, 1610nm – 1550nm
• LAC-4P, 1530nm – 1470nm
The LGX-compatible form factor allows for simple installation with snap-in mounting. The LAC-4P
modules are installed without tools into any LGX-compatible shelf. You can mount up to three units into a
single LGX passive shelf.
The LAC-4P CWDM modules is deployable in incremental steps. Operators can start out with a 1x4
CWDM multiplexer and, as demand grows, add an additional 1x4 LGX packaged CWDM module to reach
8 wavelengths. Add Additional modules by simply daisy-chaining the units using the LAC-4P Express and
Common ports.
