SONET/SDH Application xiii
1 Introducing the IQS-8100
Series Transport Blazer
Fully integrated test solution supporting next-generation SONET/SDH,
optical transport network (OTN), Ethernet, and Fibre Channel test
functions.
This user guide covers the IQS-8100 Series of modules including the
IQS-8105, IQS-8115, IQS-8120, IQS-8120NG, IQS-8120NGE, IQS-8130,
IQS-8130NG, IQS-8130NGE, and IQS-8140.
This user guide only covers the “SONET/SDH Application” which covers
DSn/PDH, next-generation SONET/SDH, and OTN test fuctions. Refer to the
“Ethernet and Fibre Channel Application” user guide for more information
on Ethernet and Fibre Channel test functions.
SONET/SDH and OTN Service Turn-up and
Troubleshooting
The IQS-8100 Series Transport Blazer modules offer a wide range of
SONET/SDH and OTN test functions, allowing users to perform tests
ranging from simple bit error rate (BER) testing to advanced
characterization and troubleshooting procedures.
Next-Generation SONET/SDH Testing
The IQS-8120NG, and IQS-8130NG, IQS-8120NGE, and IQS-8130NGE
modules support Next-Generation SONET/SDH capabilities in addition to
providing SONET/SDH test functions.
Available Next-Generation SONET/SDH test functionality include generic
framing procedure (GFP), virtual concatenation (VCAT) and link capacity
adjustment scheme (LCAS).
SONET/SDH Application 1
Introducing the IQS-8100 Series Transport Blazer
SmartMode: Real-Time Signal Structure Discovery
and Monitoring
The Transport Blazer supports a unique feature called SmartMode, which
automatically discovers the signal structure of the OC-n/STM-n line
including mixed mappings and virtual concatenation (VCAT) members. In
addition to this in-depth multichannel visibility, SmartMode performs
real-time monitoring of all discovered high-order paths and user selected
low-order paths simultaneously, providing users with the industry’s most
powerful SONET/SDH multichannel monitoring and troubleshooting
solution. SmartMode is not supported on the IQS-8140.

2 Safety Information
Laser Safety Warnings
WARNING
When the LASER LED is on or flashing, the IQS-8100 Series is
transmitting an optical signal.
WARNING
Do not install or terminate fibres while a laser source is active.
Never look directly into a live fibre, and ensure that your eyes are
protected at all times.
WARNING
This product may employ a Class 1M SFP or XFP. Check pluggable
transceiver label for laser classification. Applies to IQS-8115,
IQS-8120, IQS-8120NG, IQS-8120NGE, IQS-8130, IQS-8130NG, and
IQS-8130NGE modules only.
WARNING
Use of optical instruments with this product will increase eye
hazard.

Safety Information
Installation Instruction Warnings
Installation Instruction Warnings
This unit is designed for indoor use only.
For IQS-8105/15/20/30: Except for the Dual Bantam connector and
the RJ-48C port, all telecom (electrical) interfaces are SELV (Safety
Extra Low Voltage) circuitry intended for intra-building use only.
To reduce the risk of fire, use only No. 26 AWG or larger
telecommunication line cord.
For IQS-8140: The AUX (BNC) interface employs SELV (Safety Extra
Low Voltage) circuitry intended for intra-building use only.
No user serviceable parts are contained inside. Contact the
manufacturer regarding service of this equipment.

CAUTION
Keep all ventilation openings clear and unobstructed.
IMPORTANT
All wiring and installation must be in accordance with local building
and electrical codes acceptable to the authorities in the countries
where the equipment is installed and used.

Safety Information
Installation Instruction Warnings
CAUTION
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Equipment:
Plug-in modules can be damaged by static electrical discharge. To
minimize the risk of damage, dissipate static electricity by touching
a grounded unpainted metal object
³ before removing, inserting, or handling the module.
³ before connecting or disconnecting cables to/from the module.
³ before inserting or removing SFP/XFPs to/from the module.

3 Getting Started
If the IQS-8100 Series Transport Blazer has been purchased at the same
time as the IQS-600, the IQS-8100 Series module is pre-installed with the
appropriate IQS Manager software version.
IQS Manager Installation
The IQS Manager is the baseline software and thus needs to be installed on
the IQS-600 before using the IQS-8100 Series module.
Note: Refer to the IQS-600 platform user guide for more information on IQS
Manager installation procedure.
Inserting and Removing Test Modules
CAUTION
Never insert or remove a module while the controller unit and its
expansion units are turned on. This will result in immediate and
irreparable damage to both the module and unit.
Note: Refer to the IQS-600 platform user guide for more information on how to
insert a module into the IQS-600 or to remove a module from the IQS-600.
For IQS-8140, use respectively the retaining screw number 2, 3, or 4 (from
bottom to top) depending if the module is inserted in slots 0 to 5, 1 to 6, or 2
to 7.
Turning the Unit On
Turn on the IQS-600. Refer to the IQS-600 platform user guide for more
information.
