2.01This section provides an overview of DWDM systems and the Tellabs
7100/7100N OTS operations.
DWDM and the Optical Layer
2.02Dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) is an optical technology
used to increase the capacity and flexibility of the optical infrastructure. In a DWDM
system, multiple optical signals are transmitted over multiple optical wavelengths
on a single optical fiber. Traditional systems require multiple optical fibers to
transmit multiple optical signals.
2.03DWDM is a multiplexing hierarchy that leverages the optical layer of the
transmission network. The optical layer interfaces the digital layer at the optical
termination equipment, which can be considered part of both the electrical and the
optical layer. The optical layer provides multiplexing schemes and management
that are not present on the digital layer of the network.This optical infrastructure
supports multiple data rates (for example, 622 Mbps, 2.5 Gbps, 10 Gbps),
synchronous optical network (SONET) signal rates, and synchronous digital
hierarchy (SDH) signal rates.
Multiplexing Schemes
2.04DWDM systems are divided into integrated and open systems. In
integrated DWDM systems, the DWDM transmitter and receiver functionality is
integrated into the transmitter/receiver of the digital transmission equipment. In
open DWDM systems, special DWDM transmitter/receiver interface units
(transponders) are used to provide the interface between the DWDM multiplexers
and the adjacent digital transmission equipment.
2.05In DWDM systems, the signals to be multiplexed and demultiplexed are
characterized by different optical wavelengths. The optical wavelengths of the
Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS are chosen in agreement with the International
Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) recommendations specifying up to 44 DWDM
channels with center wavelengths placed in the erbium doped fiber amplifier
(EDFA) gain band with 100 GHz between neighboring channels, and 88 DWDM
channels with center wavelengths placed in the erbium doped fiber amplifier
(EDFA) gain band with 50 GHz between neighboring channels. Wavelengths are
placed from 1529 nm to 1563 nm, where the EDFA gain bands exhibit the most
wavelength uniform gain characteristics.

General Description2. Tellabs 7100/7100N Optical Transport Series
Layer Management
2.06The optical layer is managed as the digital (SONET/SDH) layer is, except
for the physical transport of remote management data. In the optical layer,
supervisory and management data from remote DWDM equipment cannot be
transmitted over embedded digital channels. Instead, this data is transmitted over
an independent optical supervisory channel (OSC) at 1510 nm. The OSC is
terminated, processed, and retransmitted at the DWDM equipment that interfaces
the optical transmission fiber.
Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS Operations
2.07The Tellabs 7100 OTS is a metro, dense wavelength division multiplexing
(DWDM) system based on a parallel architecture that provides scalable,
non-service affecting growth to 88 protected wavelengths without network
re-engineering. The Tellabs 7100N OTS is a full-featured system providing eight
protected wavelength for niche applications within a Tellabs 7100 OTS network.
These systems support ITU-T Recommendation G.709 Optical Transport Network
(OTN)-based transport, enabling transparent high-capacity services. Services
such as Carrier Ethernet, video, Storage Area Network, SONET, and SDH are
carried on a shared infrastructure, scaling capacity as needed.
2.08The Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS is built on unique, multi-patented system
technologies that enable true next generation multiservice delivery. It features an
integrated dynamic optical core combined with an intelligent services interface that
delivers Add/Drop Multiplexer (ADM) capability on a single blade (SMTM-U
module) in client ranges of 100 Mbps to 40 Gbps. The dynamic optical core
enables service providers to meet today’s network needs while supporting the
ability to effortlessly deploy additional nodes for future expansion via a
multi-degree Reconfigurable Optical ADM (ROADM).
2.09The intelligent services interface can replace a currently installed ADM ring
with a simple pair of modules, eliminating the costly implementation of stacked
ADM rings, back-to-back ADM boxes between rings, and multiple rows of
supporting equipment. Linear add/drop, ring, and mesh optical network topologies
are supported on the same base platform. Service is easily changed by equipping
endpoints with specific interface modules.
2.10Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS provides the following benefits:
•fiber relief in fiber-constrained networks
•wavelength and capacity-based services
•deployment of new services without re-engineering networks
•efficient aggregate and transport of different types of traffic in
metropolitan (metro) areas
•variable applications such as mesh, ring, and point-to-point

Embedded Operations Channel Network
2.18The Embedded Operations Channel Network (EON) provides Embedded
Operations Channels (EOCs) to route management traffic using Internet Protocol
(IP) through an internal network among the NEs.
2.19One NE in the EON is provisioned as a gateway NE (PGNE-1) and routes
management traffic between the external DCN and the other NEs (PRNEs) in the
EON. The PGNE-1 manages PRNEs through the Tellabs 7190 EMS and Tellabs
7194 NMS, acting as an entry point from the external DCN and enables packet
routing among the PRNEs after an IP address is configured for each. A secondary
gateway (PGNE-2) provides redundancy so that a single optical link failure does
not cause a communication interruption between the Tellabs 7190/7194
management systems and any NE in the ring.
2.20Tellabs recommends limiting to 30 the number of PRNEs assigned to a
PGNE. When a network exceeds this limit, the EON can be partioned into two
EONs by provisioning one of the PRNEs as a second PGNE-1 and modifying the
traffic paths around that PRNE. Refer to the Tellabs 7100/7100N Craft Station User Guide for detailed procedures on partitioning NEs. Figure 2.2, page 2-7 illustrates
the resulting two EONs interconnected via DWDM links after partitioning.

2. Tellabs 7100/7100N Optical Transport SeriesGeneral Description
Autodiscovery
2.21Autodiscovery is a self-inventory feature that enables the Tellabs
7100/7100N NEs to report their inventory to the Tellabs 7190/7194 management
systems. On system startup, the NE performs a self survey to determine which
hardware components are present. This information is retrieved by the system
manager when it is connected to the NE. If there is a discrepancy between the
configurations stored by the management system and the NE, the NE is assumed
to have the valid configuration.
Performance Monitoring
2.22Performance monitoring is the continuous, nonintrusive collection of
system performance data and is used to determine the operational status of the
network and the quality of service that the network is providing. PM checks for
specific types of signal information and helps identify the cause of network
transmission problems. PM is detailed in Facility Performance Monitoring,
page 2-106.
Control Plane
2.23The Tellabs 7100 OTS Control Plane feature provides rapid circuit
provisioning across mesh architectures in transport networks. Control plane
functionality is based on the ITU-T automatically switched optical network (ASON)
architecture and utilizes IETF generalized multi-protocol label switching (GMPLS)
protocols as extended by the OIF. It is embedded in the SPM and applied at STS
or VC termination points on paired SMTM-U module facilities operating in SPFAB
mode.
2.24NEs are network aware in control plane applications, providing faster
set-up and tear-down of call paths across the network. The call path is established
at the STS or VC layer. The control plane automatically manages a link resource
database in real-time to provide constraint-based routing and traffic engineering.
The Tellabs 7100 OTS control plane application interfaces traditional and
management plane systems to coordinate traffic and network resources.
2.25Tellabs 7100 OTS Control Plane supports calls across multiple domains
and flexible path protection at the STS/VC level. Re-designed protection schemes
in FP5.1.x streamline provisioning requirements while enhancing reliability to
control plane traffic.
2.26Control Plane 1+1 (CP 1+1) protection provides two diverse connections
(working and protected) between the ingress node and the egress node of a
protection domain. This protection scheme is supported on the drop-side and the
line-side between Tellabs 7100 OTS NEs within the Tellabs 7100 OTS control
plane network (I-NNI). CP 1+1 protection is not supported on drop-side or line-side
facilities provisioned between a Tellabs 7100 OTS NE and control plane entities
outside of the Tellabs 7100 OTS network where only LAPS is supported over the
E-NNI.
Page 2-85/09 76.7144FP51/2, Rev B
General Description2. Tellabs 7100/7100N Optical Transport Series
2.27Flexible Path Protection is a protection scheme that removes previous
shelf-slot pairing constraints and enables protection port pairing between any two
ports on the line side, or any two ports on the drop side. It allows any port-side
termination to be protected by any other port-side termination and any line-side
termination to be protected by any other line-side termination within the same shelf.
Protection port pairing with a line-side port and a drop-side port mixed pair is not
supported. A protection port pair constitutes a Path Protection Group (PPG)
supported by STSn/VCn path layer protection. These Path Protection Groups
(PPG) are automatically created when the cross-connect is provisioned. For CP
1+1, two PPGs are created – one at the ingress/source node, and one at the
egress/destination node.
2.28Dynamic re-route supports multiple repair points for a signal path and
permits automatic recovery from node failures with an efficient use of resources
that are used only during route restoration, unlike Control Plane 1+1 (CP 1+1)
protection where resources are pre-allocated. Dynamic re-route is supported in
single domains and across multiple domains. When dynamic re-route restoration
is provisioned, failure indications are propagated to repair nodes to direct an
alternate route connection to bypass the call path. In the event of resource
contention among multiple dynamic calls or simultaneous failures along the call
path, crankback is used to address these conditions and retry failed calls.
Ethernet Packet Support
2.29Packet subsystems are created on Tellabs 7100 OTS port shelves when
packet modules (DPM, SPFAB, SMTM-P, and TGIM-P) are present and
provisioned. Packet subsystems are created on Tellabs 7100N OTS port shelves
when SMTM-P or TGIM-P are present and provisioned. The Packet subsystem
can be managed with the Tellabs 7190/7194 management system or a Command
Line Interface (CLI). Packet-based transponder modules, SMTM-P and TGIM-P,
manage the ingress and egress ports for traffic flow. SMTM-P modules are
equipped with small form pluggables (SFPs) designed to support traffic signal rates
that interface the module. Refer to Table 2.1, page 2-9.

2. Tellabs 7100/7100N Optical Transport SeriesGeneral Description
2.31In Tellabs 7100 OTS applications, the SONET/SDH/Packet Fabric
(SPFAB) module provides a switch matrix for SONET/SDH signaling and Packet
traffic to maximize system integration and bandwidth efficiency. It interfaces
SMTM-U, SMTM-P, and TGIM-P modules to switch Packet and STS/VC-level
cross-connects.
2.32Packet applications support both SNMPv2 and SNMPv3. Quality of
service certifications include Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) services certification:
E-Line service, E-LAN service, and Ethernet Private Line (EPL). Performance
monitoring enhancements include Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED)
congestion management, traffic-shaping queues, and continuity checks.
2.33Improved fault management for 802.3 compliant MAC/PHY interfaces
include Far End Fault Indication (FEFI) for 100FX interface, LOSYNC for NE IEEE
802.3 compliant MAC interface, signal degrade and signal fail conditions detected
on incoming Ethernet traffic based on errored frames, provisionable alarm profiles,
and additional alarms and conditions retrieved via SNMPv2c traps.
2.34Traffic enhancements include tunneling Layer 2 control frames
transparently (spanning tree bridge protocol data units and GVRP packets) at
Provider Edge Bridge points. Ethernet types are filtered at the module port to
reduce congestion. Link aggregation groups are managed by SNMPv2.
SDH Protocol Support
2.35A suite of Tellabs 7100 OTS and Tellabs 7100N OTS features are provided
in SDH signaling formats. Transparent STMnT (Synchronous Transfer Mode)
signals are introduced to multiplex SDH-based traffic onto a single fiber to reduce
fiber exhaust. STMnTs transport Virtual Containers (VC-4, VC-4-4C, or VC-4-16C)
through the network untouched.
2.36This feature also uses VCn grooming to support multiple types of traffic,
including virtual concatenation. This utilizes the capacity provided by DWDM
applications and eliminates the requirement for distinct ADMs. Within the Tellabs
7100 NE, distinct VCs may be individually cross-connected onto different STM-xs,
which are associated to DWDM channels. Cross-connect terminations VC-4,
VC4NV, VC-4-4C, and VC-4-16C are supported. Signals can be concatenated into
groups via VC4NV (Level 4 Virtually Concatenated) facilities for provisioning and
transport.
2.37CRC4 framing format and E1 signaling are also supported. Signal
protection is provided in both 1+1 protection and SNCPRING protection schemes.
Graphical representations of both world maps and actual operating NEs are
provided for visual provisioning.
Note:In SDH standards, it is possible to support either high order VC-3 or low
order VC-3 (TUG3 mapping). The Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS only supports
high order VC-3 path layer entities per ITU-T G.707. Customer
provisioning and use of VC-3 should carefully consider ITU-T
recommendation for Multiplexing of AU-3s via AUG-1 (refer to ITU-T
G.707/Y.1322 12/2003 Figure 7-4) in order to avoid any interruptions in
traffic.

General Description2. Tellabs 7100/7100N Optical Transport Series
Interoperability Features
2.38Interoperability features are built in to the Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS for
seamless integration into multiple vendor network.
Data Communications Channel (DCC)
2.39DCC allows the messaging specific to multi-vendor devices in a Tellabs
7100 network to flow through the Tellabs 7100 NE that is provisioned as the
network Gateway Network Element (GNE). The GNE serves as a conduit for
communication between non-Tellabs management systems and the sub-tending
multi-vendor devices they support, allowing both messaging and software
downloads via an OSI-based Data Communication Network. DCC processing
routes messages between the DCN interface, the SPM, the DPM, and the DCC
interfaces on the SMTM-Us.
IP Over DCC
2.40IP over DCC allows subtended SONET/SDH platforms to access an
IP-based DCN. On the Tellabs 7100 OTS, it allows access to the signaling
communication network (SCN) in control plane applications. IP traffic presented
over the DCC may be locally processed or forwarded to another PRNE or to the
PGNE.
2.41Establishing an SCN expedites traffic processing by directing signaling
and management traffic to different physical ports on the NE. The SCN on the
Tellabs 7100 OTS is established via OCn, VCn, and HDP port provisioning.
OSI Traffic Tunnelled Over EON to Remote NEs
2.42The management functions of GNEs can be extended to SDH/SONET
ADMs that subtend remote Tellabs 7100/7100N NEs by tunneling OSI traffic over
the EON to allow the PRNE to serve as a single GNE in the SDH/SONET ADM
subnetwork. The NE supports up to 64 OSI associations per TCP session and up
to 15 TTD TCP sessions.
Services Between Transponders and External Equipment
2.43The ROADM/SBOADM DWDM optical network components in a Tellabs
7100/7100N OTS application can be decoupled in Tellabs 7100 OTS networks so
that Ethernet, SONET, and SDH capabilities can be deployed without routing
through mutiplexing functions on the NE. This flexibility simplifies provisioning and
reduces start-up costs for smaller applications while preserving the capability to
upgrade to ROADM/SBOADM DWDM services.

System Operation and Growth
2.44This section provides general descriptions of features related to growing
and modifying a Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS.
SPM Operation
2.45The 71114B System Processor Module (SPM) and 71714 System
Processor Module (SPM-N) automatically validate their NE location at each restart.
This ensures that the supporting NE is not reprovisioned with an incorrect
configuration during an SPM replacement.
2.46To facilitate module replacement, the SPM/SPM-N stores module
commissioning parameters and configuration data in the NE database located on
the redundant SPM (and redundant SPM-N when present). This functionality
allows the SPM/SPM-N to automatically restore its commissioning and
configuration data when a module is replaced.
Auto-Negotiation
Seamless Expansion
2.47Auto-negotiation is provided on the SMTM-U to facilitate signal transport
across a network. With auto-negotiation, the SMTM-U can communicate its
transport properties, such as speed and duplex mode, to routers in the network so
the two devices can determine the most efficient transport mode supported by
both. On the SMTM-U, auto-negotiation is managed on the GbE facility.
Performance is monitored through maintenance signaling on the client side.
2.48Additional degrees can be added to expand current nodes without
reprovisioning wavelengths and 44-channel OLA configurations can be converted
to 44-channel SBOADMs.
2.49Amplifiers, RCMM-4Ds, and RCMM-8Ds can be replaced with
corresponding modules of increased capacity or features without impacting
currently provisioned wavelengths, facilities, or cross-connects.

Network Administration
2.50This section provides general descriptions of features related to network
administration on the Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS.
Northbound Interfaces
2.51The Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS supports three northbound interface
protocols:
Tellabs 7194 XML
Northbound Interface
Tellabs 7190 SNMP
Northbound Interface
2.52The Tellabs 7194 XML Northbound Interface uses open standard
TeleManagement Forum (TMF) 854/XML protocol to facilitate communication
between the Tellabs7194 management systems and other operations support
systems (OSS). This feature provides a layer of uniformity for support of other
network management systems by interfacing TMN-layered OSS architectures for
rapid deployment of new services that meet SLA requirements. It supports
HTTP/HTTPS protocols for inventory retrieval and alarm and notification
forwarding features. HTTP/HTTPS capabilities include session and user IDs,
multiple batch response, and server and key records.
2.53The TMF MTOSI standard interface in the Tellabs 7194 XML NBI provides
rapid deployment of new services. XML NBI supports single-port (TGTM-E) and
multiple-port (SMTM-U) transponders in the Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS and the
following services: SONET, GBE, TGBE, ESCON, FC, FICON ISC, and DV. It
provides an end-to-end Sub-Network Connection (SNC) at the DWDM layer in
single mesh networks. XML NBI also supports inventory and fault management.
2.54The Tellabs 7190 SNMP Northbound Interface provides a mediation layer
over the Tellabs 7190 EMS to support SNMP-based network management. This
allows SNMP-based management systems to manage telecommunication
equipment operating the Tellabs 7190 EMS interface via an SNMP communication
link.
2.55The SNMP mediation layer converts SNMP requests into corresponding
commands that are forwarded to the Tellabs 7190 EMS. Responses from the
Tellabs 7190 EMS are converted to SNMP format and sent to the SNMP Manager.
Alarms and events set on NEs and on the Tellabs 7190 EMS are converted to
SNMP notifications and sent via the EMS to configured northbound managers.
This feature supports SNMP protocol versions v1, v2c, and v3.
2.56The Tellabs 7190 SNMP Northbound Interface also retrieves Packet
Subsystem messages and alarms.
DHCP
2.57The DHCP feature provides automatic addressing of Tellabs 7100/7100N
OTSs configured as Remote Network Elements (RNE) on the internal Embedded
Operations Network (EON). Address assignments are managed by the Tellabs
7100 NE that is configured as a Gateway Network Element (GNE).

2. Tellabs 7100/7100N Optical Transport SeriesGeneral Description
Power Balancing
2.58When a transponder is installed, the power balance feature automatically
adjusts the EVOA setting, reducing the time it takes for the transponder to
converge into the network. If an NE detects a fiber span variation, the automatic
power balancing algorithm adjusts the gain of the input amplifier on that span.
Derived Timing Synchronization
2.59When system synchronization is provided by derived timing, a pair of
facilities supply redundant timing to all SMTM-x, SSM-D, SSM-X, OTNM-D and
TGIM-P in an NE. The derived timing sources are OCn, STMn or OCH-P facilities
provisioned on two different transponders. Derived timing is used in place of T1/E1
BITS timing.

General Description3. Features Introduced in FP5.1.x
3.Features Introduced in FP5.1.x
3.01This section describes general system features new in Tellabs
7100/7100N OTS Feature Package 5.1.x (FP5.1.x).
Control Plane Enhancements
3.02Tellabs 7100 OTS Control Plane now supports calls across multiple
domains, flexible path protection at the STS/VC level, and dynamic re-route
restoration with crankback. Re-designed protection schemes in FP5.1.x streamline
provisioning requirements while enhancing reliability to control plane traffic.
3.03Control Plane 1+1 (CP 1+1) protection provides two diverse connections
(working and protected) between the ingress node and the egress node of a
protection domain. This protection scheme is supported on the drop-side and the
line-side between Tellabs 7100 OTS NEs within the Tellabs 7100 OTS control
plane network (I-NNI). CP 1+1 protection is not supported on drop-side or line-side
facilities provisioned between a Tellabs 7100 OTS NE and control plane entities
outside of the Tellabs 7100 OTS network where only LAPS is supported over the
E-NNI.
3.04Flexible Path Protection is a protection scheme that removes previous
shelf-slot pairing constraints and enables protection port pairing between any two
ports on the line side, or any two ports on the drop side. It allows any port-side
termination to be protected by any other port-side termination and any line-side
termination to be protected by any other line-side termination within the same shelf.
Protection port pairing with a line-side port and a drop-side port mixed pair is not
supported. A protection port pair constitutes a Path Protection Group (PPG)
supported by STSn/VCn path layer protection. These Path Protection Groups
(PPG) are automatically created when the cross-connect is provisioned. For CP
1+1, two PPGs are created – one at the ingress/source node, and one at the
egress/destination node.
3.05Dynamic re-route supports multiple repair points for a signal path and
permits automatic recovery from node failures with an efficient use of resources
that are used only during route restoration, unlike Control Plane 1+1 (CP 1+1)
protection where resources are pre-allocated. Dynamic re-route is supported in
single domains and across multiple domains. When dynamic re-route restoration
is provisioned, failure indications are propagated to repair nodes to direct an
alternate route connection to bypass the call path. In the event of resource
contention among multiple dynamic calls or simultaneous failures along the call
path, crankback is used to address these conditions and retry failed calls.
76.7144FP51/2, Rev B 5/09 Page 2-15
3. Features Introduced in FP5.1.xGeneral Description
Packet Enhancements
3.06Packet applications support both SNMPv2 and SNMPv3. Quality of
service certifications include Metro Ethernet Forum (MEF) services certification:
E-Line service, E-LAN service, and Ethernet Private Line (EPL). Performance
monitoring enhancements include Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED)
congestion management, traffic-shaping queues, and continuity checks.
3.07Improved fault management for 802.3 compliant MAC/PHY interfaces
include Far End Fault Indication (FEFI) for 100FX interface, LOSYNC for NE IEEE
802.3 compliant MAC interface, signal degrade and signal fail conditions detected
on incoming Ethernet traffic based on errored frames, provisionable alarm profiles,
and additional alarms and conditions retrieved via SNMPv2c traps.
3.08Traffic enhancements include tunneling Layer 2 control frames
transparently (spanning tree bridge protocol data units and GVRP packets) at
Provider Edge Bridge points. Ethernet types are filtered at the module port to
reduce congestion. Link aggregation groups are managed by SNMPv2.
3.09The Tellabs 7100 OTS now supports MPLS based LAG distribution. When
the distribution criterion of a LAG is configured as a MPLS label, the NE distributes
traffic for this LAG according to the following rules:
•If the packet has two labels and 0 or 1 tag, traffic is distributed based
on these two labels.
•If the packet has three or more labels and 0 or 1 tags, traffic is
distributed based on the next two labels following the most outer label.
•Otherwise, traffic is distributed based on the source MAC address and
the destination MAC address.
3.10The Tellabs 7100 OTS supports IGMP snooping. It allows customers to
efficiently deploy IP multicast services controlled by IGMP messages. Referencing
the TR-101 multicast model, the Tellabs 7100 OTS serves as the Ethernet
Aggregation Node.
•IGMP snooping is the process of inspecting user-initiated IGMP
messages which indicate which multicast groups the subscriber is
joining and leaving. Through IGMP snooping, the Aggregation Node
builds multicast MAC forwarding filters so that it can intelligently
forward IP multicast groups/channels only to the ports connected to
Hosts that request the groups/channels.
•For the IGMP Snooping feature, the NE is responsible for forwarding
each multicast group received on a Multicast VLAN to only those
member ports that have specifically requested that multicast group.
This prevents needlessly flooding a multicast group to all attached
ports. The NE identifies these ports by IGMP snooping. The NE
inspects frames for IGMP messages and maintains Multicast
MAC-address filters indicating which ports have requested specific
multicast groups.
3.11The Tellabs 7100 OTS supports Ethernet End to End OAM. This allows the
service provider to monitor end to end from the equipment that interfaces with the
customer, as well as end to end within each subnetwork and over each link.

3.12Module support is expanded in the Tellabs 7100N OTS to include
OTNM-D, SMTM-P, TGIM-P, and SSM-D/X, and supported traffic options now
include Packet.
88-Channel Configurations
3.13Two 88-channel configurations are introduced for increased capacity in the
Tellabs 7100 OTS. The SBOADM configuration supports add/drop/pass-through of
up to 88 channels. The OLA configuration amplifies and passes through up to 88
channels. Three new 88-channel amplifiers, one new 88-channel multiplexer, two
mux/demux modules, and new main shelves support these configurations.
3.14An 88-channel configuration is introduced for increased capacity in the
Tellabs 7100N OTS. The Tellabs 7100N OLA configuration amplifies and passes
through up to 88 channels. One of three 88-channel amplifiers can be placed in slot
one and slot four of the Tellabs 7100N OLA main shelf to support this configuration.
Expanded Shelf Capacity
3.15Network elements (NEs) in the Tellabs 7100 OTS can now support up to
12 port shelves per NE. Configurations 39 and 40 (with single Main Shelf 1) support
12 port shelves, while configuration 42 (with Main Shelves 1 and 15) supports 11
port shelves.
3.16The Tellabs 7100N OTS can now support up to six port shelves per NE.
Expanded Y-cable Patch Panel Support
3.17The Y-Cable patch panel now provides signal protection on the Tellabs
7100/7100N OTS through paired FGTMs and FGTM-Ms.
DCC Enhancements
3.18DCC functionality enhanced to provide the capability to pass IP traffic over
DCC to support routing of non-Tellabs NEs MCN traffic via Tellabs 7100 signaling
communication network (SCN). The existing control plane interfaces and
provisioning are used to support this feature for non-Tellabs NEs that are
connected to the SMTM-U.

NorthBound Interface Enhancements
3.19The TMF MTOSI standard interface in the Tellabs 7194 XML NBI is
expanded to provide rapid deployment of new services. XML NBI supports
single-port (TGTM-E) and multiple-port (SMTM-U) transponders in the Tellabs
7100/7100N OTS and the following services: SONET, GBE, TGBE, ESCON, FC,
FICON ISC, and DV. It provides an end-to-end Sub-Network Connection (SNC) at
the DWDM layer in single mesh networks. XML NBI also supports inventory and
fault management.
3.20The Tellabs 7190 SNMP Northbound Interface now retrieves Packet
Subsystem messages and alarms.
3.21Tellabs 7194 XML NBI supports using an inner topological link (TL) in
place of an end to end OCH layer SNC to decouple DWDM and SONET/SDH
networks.
3.22The Tellabs 7194 XML NBI uses a Group Termination Point (GTP) to
model STS1CNV and the STS3CNV in order to simplify VCAT service
provisioning. This allows the user to create VCAT service with only one Web
Services Description Language (WSDL) request.
3.23The Tellabs 7194 XML NBI reduces the number of steps required to
provision services using SNC provisioning operations to automatically create
required path layer Connection Termination Points (CTPs).
3.24The Tellabs 7194 XML NBI adds support for provisioning a SNC that
passes through multiple SMTM-U modules on the same SONET ring.
3.25The Tellabs 7194 XML NBI supports network side protected and port side
unprotected service.
3.26The Tellabs 7194 XML NBI adds support for provisioning Y-cable signal
protection for the TGTM-E.

General Description3. Features Introduced in FP5.1.x
71125B Co-Propagating Raman Amplifier 700 mW
3.41The 71125B Co-Propagating Raman Amplifier (CRA) is an external
amplifier that allows the Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS to support traffic over larger
optical span losses than would be possible if only using a Tellabs 7100/7100N
amplifier. The CRA also allows a signal to travel through a larger number of total
spans. The CRA provides post-amplification of a signal after the signal exits the
Erbium Doped Fiber Amplifier (EDFA) of a Tellabs 7100/7100N amplifier. In a
co-propagating deployment, the Raman amplification distributes a high pump
power (700 mW) in the fiber in the same the direction of travel as the traffic.
82.71114B System Processor Module
3.42The 82.71114B System Processor Module (SPM) can be installed in the
main shelf or in the port shelf to replace the Data Processor Module (DPM).
Dispersion Compensation Module
3.43New Dispersion Compensation Modules (DCMs) are equipped with a
Communication port for connection to an amplifier that allows autodiscovery
through the management system, craft station, and TL1 interfaces. When the DCM
is autodiscovered, the fiber type and distance can be viewed and modified. A
positive DCM is also available for applications using dispersion shifted fiber.
71328O-M Optical Transport Network Multiplexer
3.4471328O-M Optical Transport Network Multiplexer (OTNM-D) multiplexes
clients into the DWDM network transparently to provide increased capacity and
flexibility for applications. The OTNM-D is designed with eight, low-speed SFP
interfaces that support client rates from 100 Mbps to 4Gbps. It supports a wide
range of client signals, including SONET/SDH, Ethernet, Storage Area Network
(SAN), OTU1,and video. The OTNM-D has an integrated line-side optical switch
to provide DPRING protection. It can also be installed with the Y-Cable patch panel
for signal protection.
3.45The 82.71423M 40 Gbps, Multi-Port Tunable Transponder Module
(FGTM-M) is a 40 Gbps, four-port tunable transponder module that multiplexes
four 10 Gb client ports into one 40 Gb DWDM port. The FGTM-M accepts
OC-192/STM64, 10G WAN Phy, 10G LAN Phy, or OTU2 client signals. It increases
traffic-carrying capability four-fold and is easily installed in existing networks during
a service upgrade without extensive network redesign or reconfiguration. It can
also be installed with the Y-Cable patch panel for signal protection.
3.46The FGTM-M supports the DQPSK modulation scheme on the line side
facility and provides polarization mode dispersion compensation (PMDC) up to
10 ps.

3. Features Introduced in FP5.1.xGeneral Description
82.71423 40 Gbps Transponder Module (FGTM)
3.47The 82.71423 40 Gbps, single-port Tunable Transponder Module (FGTM)
accepts OC-768 or STM-256 client signals. It increases traffic-carrying capability
four-fold and is easily installed in existing networks during a service upgrade
without extensive network redesign or reconfiguration. It can also be installed with
the Y-Cable patch panel for signal protection.
3.48The 82-issue FGTM supports the DQPSK modulation scheme on the line

to 10 ps.
SONET/SDH Switching Modules (SSMs)
3.49The SONET/SDH Switching Modules (SSM) are available in the following
formats: 71623S-M SONET/SDH Switching Module - 12 SFPs, 1 XFP, 1 MSA
(SSM-D) and the 71623S SONET/SDH Switching Module - 12 SFPs, 2 XFPs
(SSM-X). The SSM-D modules can be tuned to any of the ITU C-band 88
wavelengths (in the 88 channel plan) or 44 wavelengths (in the 44 channel plan)
and support both SONET and SDH facility types.
3.50The SSMs multiplex up to 12 low-speed clients and one high speed 10G
client on its port-side interfaces into a high-rate OC-192/STM-64 interface and
converts it into a DWDM optical channel on its line-side interface for transport over
the Tellabs 7100/7100N OTS. A single channel of the DWDM interface is able to
carry multiple low-speed signals for SONET, SDH, and Ethernet. The SSMs also
support OC-192 and electrical Ethernet Client facilities. Protection schemes
include OCH DPRING, UPSR, APS 1+1, and LAG port-side protection.
3.51The SSM-D (XFP slot 1) has a widely tunable 10 Gb/s interface and
supports OCH DPRING on the line-side or unprotected line-side UPSR.
3.52The SSM-X (XFP slot 1) supports an OC-192, STM-64, or OTU2 line
interface. It performs pass through to another SSM-D for line-side OCH-DPRING
protection or add/drop multiplexing (ADM) functionality and supports unprotected
line-side UPSR and line-side 1+1 APS.
3.53When the SSM-D or SSM-X modules are deployed in the Tellabs 7100
OTS port shelf, they require at least one 82 version System Processor Module
(SPM) or one Data Processor Module (DPM) in Tellabs 7100 OTS port shelf slot
position 17 or 18.
