This chapter describes the Cisco ONS 15200 mechanical components. It also provides electrical, electromagnetic, and safety information about the ONS 15200.

3.1  Modularity and Ancillary Equipment

Equipment in the ONS 15200 system is modular in design. Each system function is carried out by modules located in either an ONS 15252 MCU or an ONS 15201 SCU. Sites in the ONS 15200 system consist of either an ONS 15252 MCU, an ONS 15201 SCU, or a combination of the two. Additionally, a power distribution panel (PDP) may be included in ONS 15200 site configurations.

3.1.1  ONS 15252 MCU

The ONS 15252 MCU communicates with the other network elements (NEs) in the ONS 15200 system on one or several channels. Each channel occupies a wavelength, but in some ONS 15200 system configurations, the wavelengths can be reused. As shown in Figure 3-1, several channels of information, each occupying a wavelength, enter the NE from the DWDM layer. Each channel of information can enter the ONS 15252 MCU from the A side, the B side, or the A side and B side.

The ONS 15252 MCU communicates with the other network elements in the ONS 15200 system on one or several wavelengths. Information originating at the ONS 15252 MCU Client Layer Interface Port (CLIP) module is split by the Network Adaptation module (NAM) and transmitted in opposite directions through two different pairs of Hub Filter modules (HFMs) and a Line module (LM) at a specific wavelength for fiber-protected channels. For unprotected channels, the NAM module directs the channel to an A-side HFM module or a B-side HFM module. The unprotected channel is then transmitted through the associated LM. Information carried on a wavelength intended for another ONS 15200 site will pass through the ONS 15252 MCU without interference except for the insertion loss of the ONS 15252 MCU (Figure 3-1). If the ONS 15252 MCU is equipped with Termination modules (TMs) instead of a BM, the TM will block any wavelength or channel not dropped to the ONS 15252 MCU.


Figure 3-1: Functional view of the ONS 15252 Multichannel Unit (protected version)


Two versions of the ONS 15252 MCU mechanical shelf exist: Release 1.0 and Release 1.01. Cisco currently ships only the Release 1.0.1 shelf and no longer ships the Release 1.0 shelf.

The Release 1.0.1 shelf includes a baffle. The baffle is a partially-perforated, angled metal plate that is mounted below and behind the metal support beam and is mechanically attached to the back of the shelf. It runs the width of the shelf. To view the baffle, look up through the ventilation cavities at the back of the shelf.

The ONS 15252 Release 1.01 includes a fan unit. Before using the Release 1.01 shelf, you must install the fan unit. Do not use the fan unit with a Release 1.0 shelf. See the "Fan Unit" section for more information about the fan unit.


Caution   You must install the fan unit in a Release 1.01 shelf. Running the Release 1.01 shelf without the fan unit may result in equipment damage.


Caution   Do not install the fan unit in a Release 1.0 shelf. Running the Release 1.0 shelf with a fan unit may result in equipment damage.

The ONS 15252 Release 1.01 includes an updated Network Adaptation Module (NAM). The Release 1.01 NAM is designated with a "N3"label on the faceplate, whereas the previous version of the NAM does not have a faceplate label. The Release 1.01 shelf requires the Release 1.01 NAM. You can also use Release 1.01 NAMs in the Release 1.0 shelf. See the Cisco ONS 15200 Module Handbook for more information about the NAM.


Caution   Placing NAMs without the N3 label into an Release 1.01 shelf may result in equipment damage.

3.1.2  ONS 15201 SCU

The ONS 15201 SCU communicates with the other network elements in the ONS 15200 system on a specific wavelength or channel. From the DWDM layer, several channels of information, each occupying a wavelength, enter the ONS 15201 SCU. Each DWDM channel of information can enter the ONS 15201 SCU from the A side, the B side, or the A side and B side.

The specific channel or wavelength intended for the ONS 15201 site will be dropped and transferred to the CLIP module by the Collector Filter module (CFM). The channel will be dropped from the A side and B side for protected channels and from the A side or B side for unprotected channels. For protected channels, information originating at the ONS 15201 will be transferred from the CLIP module to the CFM module, split by the CFM, and transmitted at a specific wavelength or channel in opposite directions on the A side and B side. Unprotected channels are not split, but are directly transmitted to the A side or B side. Information carried on a wavelength or channel intended for another ONS 15200 network element will pass through the ONS 15201 SCU without interference except for the insertion loss caused by the unit (Figure 3-2).

3.1.3  Power Distribution Panel

A power distribution panel (PDP) can be included in ONS 15200 site configurations. The PDP distributes power to the ONS 15200 site and provides current protection. It uses input and output fusing to provide system protection.

3.1.4  Fan Unit

All ONS 15252 MCU site configurations must have a fan unit mounted above the ONS 15252 MCU in the equipment rack. The fan unit contains eight small fans that are run in parallel at constant speed. The fans push air down through the MCU to cool the Client Layer Interface Port (CLIP) modules. The fan unit is powered by its own two -48 VDC power inlets independently of the MCU. If the fan unit fails, it generates an alarm to indicate multi- or single-fan failure. Located on the front panel of the fan unit are three LEDs to indicate alarm status. Table 3-1 lists the LED status and cause of alarm.

The Release 1.01 shelf requires a fan unit, as described in the "ONS 15252 MCU" section. Do not use a fan unit in a Release 1.0 shelf.


Caution   You must install the fan unit in a Release 1.01 shelf. Running the Release 1.01 shelf without the fan unit may result in equipment damage.


Caution   Do not install the fan unit in a Release 1.0 shelf. Running the Release 1.0 shelf with a fan unit may result in equipment damage.

3.1.5  Fiber Organizer

The fiber organizer allocates distribution of the client optical-fiber cables to the ONS 15252 MCU CLIP modules. Additionally, the fiber organizer provides tension relief for the client optical fiber cables. A fiber organizer can also be installed between additional ONS 15252 MCUs or ONS 15201 SCUs located at a site. A fiber organizer is always included with an ONS 15252 MCU.

3.1.6  ONS 15201 SCU Power Supply

Two power supplies are included in ONS 15201 SCU site configurations. The power supplies convert AC to DC and provide a regulated -48 VDC to the ONS 15201 SCU.

3.2  Physical Layout

This section describes the physical configuration of the ONS 15252 MCU and ONS 15201 SCU.

3.2.1  ONS 15252 MCU Physical Configuration

The ONS 15252 MCU physical configuration consists of a Network Control Board (NCB) module, Network Adaptation modules (NAMs), a Communication Interface module (CIM), Client Layer Interface Port (CLIP) modules, Hub Filter modules (HFMs), a pair of Line modules (LMs), and one Bridge module (BM) (see Figure 3-3). A pair of Termination modules (TMs) can be used in place of the BM when all optical signal channels or wavelengths are dropped at the ONS 15252 MCU. Additionally, when multiple ONS 15252 MCUs are interconnected, Connection Module X (CMX) and/or Connection Module Y (CMY) are used in place of the BM. The type of connection module used depends on the specific ONS 15200 system configuration.


Figure 3-3: Configuration of the ONS 15252 Multichannel Unit


The lower portion of the ONS 15252 MCU is referred to as the passive optical shelf. The passive optical shelf has an A side and B side. The A side of the ONS 15252 MCU is located on the left side of the passive optical shelf, as seen from the front. The A-side LM contains one line IN port, one line OUT port, and two line-monitoring ports of either SC (standard) or FC (optional) type. The line-monitoring ports make it possible to monitor the A-side incoming and outgoing DWDM optical signals.

The B side of the ONS 15252 MCU is located on the right side of the passive optical shelf, as seen from the front. The B-side LM contains one line IN port, and one line OUT port, and two line-monitoring ports of either SC (standard) or FC (optional) type. The line-monitoring ports make it possible to monitor the B-side incoming and outgoing DWDM optical signals. Additionally, the passive optical shelf contains the A-side and B-side HFMs and TMs, BMs, CMXs, or CMYs in various combinations. Figure 3-4 shows the typical arrangement of the modules in the passive optical shelf.
