Step 1   Read and observe all safety cautions and warnings in "Safety Summary."

Step 2   When you arrive at the site, first verify the ONS 15200 equipment according to the procedures in "Pre-Installation Procedures." If there is a problem with the equipment, contact the Cisco TAC at +1-877-323-7368.

Step 3   If you do not install the equipment when it arrives, store as specified in "Pre-Installation Procedures."

Step 4   Unpack equipment only after preparing the site as described in "Pre-Installation Procedures."

Step 5   When installing equipment at a site, follow the procedures in this chapter in the order presented.

Step 6   Turn up and test the ONS 15200 system as described in "Turn Up and Test."

Step 7   Make connections using the information in "Connectors and Cabling."



3.2 Installation Planning

Based on the system to be installed, determine the size, number, and location of racks, as well as the MCUs and SCUs required. The MCUs and SCUs will fit in 485 mm (19-in.) equipment racks, and can be adapted for 584 mm (23-in.) racks. The racks must be accessible from the front and rear for equipment installation.


Note   If you do not have rear access to the equipment, you must install the ground and power on the equipment before mounting the equipment in a rack.

Plan rack and unit installation based on the following considerations:

3.2.1 Required Items

To install an ONS 15200 system, customary installation and electrical tools are required. The following items are also required:

Chapter 4 lists the items required for turn up and test.

3.5.3 Install the ONS 15201 Fiber Cable


Caution   Always use the supplied ESD wrist strap when working with an ONS 15201.

ONS 15201 SCU client and add/drop DWDM interfaces use SC fiber connectors.

To install fiber-optic cables in the SCU, connect a fiber cable with the corresponding connector type to the transmit and receive ports on the CLIP and the DWDM add/drop interface of the CSM. On the CLIP, the transmit and receive client ports are located on the left side. The receive port is located on the bottom and has an arrow pointing towards the CLIP label.

The DWDM add/drop interface ports are located on the right side of the SCU. The A-side add port is located on the top left and the A-side drop port is located on the bottom left. The B-side add port is located on the top right and the B-side drop port is located on the bottom right. The ports are labeled for the A side and the B side with arrows indicating which is add (towards the DWDM interface in the external filter) and which is drop (from the DWDM interface). See Figure 3-16 for clarification.

Cisco recommends that you label the client side transmit and receive fibers and A-side and B-side add/drop DWDM interface fibers at each end of the fiber span to avoid confusion with cables that are similar in appearance.


Warning Follow all directions and warning labels when working with optical fibers. To prevent eye damage, never look directly into a fiber or connector.

3.8 ONS 15200 System Internal Bus Connection

You can extend the ONS 15200 system internal bus between system nodes by physically connecting CAN bus cables between the nodes.

You can combine the two different network objects as long as the total CAN bus length is less than 22 meters and the following empirical rules apply:


Note   You can obtain one-meter (3.3 ft.) and five-meter (16.4 ft.) bus cables from Cisco (P/N 72-2654 and 72-2790, respectively).

Route the bus cables from one node to another and connect them to the INT BUS ports.

A CAN bus connects CLIP modules on an ONS 15252 MCU, as well as the NCB modules. (No more than two NCB modules are allowed per CAN bus.) You can extend this data bus over several colocated network elements (ONS 15252 MCUs or ONS 15201 SCUs) to a larger logical unit. Normally, one CAN bus connects all ONS 15200 equipment located at one site.


Figure 3-37   MCU CAN Bus Access Points



Figure 3-38   SCU CAN Bus Access Points


When several MCUs are joined on a single CAN bus, they must have different backplane jumpers. The backplane jumpers are located between slots 15 and 16 of the MCU backplane (Figure 3-39).

When leaving the factory, the two jumpers are set to 00. When adding MCUs to a single CAN bus, reset these jumpers to 01, 10, and 11. In an MCU with backplane jumpers set to 11, only slots 1 through 12 will be used because the system will try to assign identical data communications network (DCN) addresses to all CLIPs in slots 12 through 16. Each CLIP must have a unique DCN address.


Note   Before changing the MCU backplane jumper settings, turn the MCU power off. After you have changed the settings, turn the power back on. When the you restart the power, the system assigns each CLIP a new unique DCN address. If you can not change the MCU backplane jumper settings due to live traffic, the firmware will resolve address conflicts as they occur.


Figure 3-39   Jumpers on the MCU Backplane


3.9 Additional Channel Installation

This section describes how to install an additional channel in an ONS 15200 system. To add a channel, two CLIP modules are necessary at different nodes, either an MCU or an SCU.


Caution   Installing a new channel may cause traffic interruption for some configurations. Before adding a channel, verify that protected CLIPs are not set to switch mode "forced_a" or "forced_b."

3.9.1 Channel Installation in an ONS 15252 MCU

This section describes how to set up an additional channel at an ONS 15252 MCU. Because a channel is always between different nodes, repeat the process at the other endpoint of the channel. If you instead plan to add a channel between an MCU and SCU, after completing the procedures in this section, continue with the "Channel Addition Using an ONS 15201 SCU" procedure.

Procedure: Install a Client Layer Interface Port Module at the ONS 15252 MCU


Step 1   Open the ONS 15252 MCU passive optical shelf door.

Step 2   Remove the common cover for the CLIPs, if used.

Step 3   Remove the blank front panel from the first slot on the right side of the installed CLIP modules.

Step 4   Align the CLIP module with the CLIP module slot.

Step 5   Carefully insert the CLIP module into the slot. Be sure that the backplane connector and the CLIP module connector are correctly mated and that no optical fiber is damaged in the process.

Step 6   Tighten the CLIP module thumbscrews.



Procedure: Install a Network Adaptation Module


Step 1   Remove the DNAM from the slot directly below the CLIP module installed in the "Install a Client Layer Interface Port Module at the ONS 15252 MCU" procedure.

Step 2   Slide the new NAM into the slot where the DNAM was removed.

Step 3   Use a slot or Phillips screwdriver to tighten the retaining screws.


Note   Ensure that the NAM fibers are not pinched when you insert the module.



Procedure: Connect the Network Adaptation Module to the Client Layer Interface Port Module


Step 1   Remove the dust plugs from the fiber adapters on the bottom of the CLIP module.

Step 2   Clean and inspect the fiber from the NAM that is labeled A.

Step 3   Connect the fiber labeled A to the A-side DWDM receiver on the CLIP module, or the B-side receiver if this is the intended configuration.

Step 4   If the channel is protected, clean the fiber from the NAM that is labeled B.

Step 5   Connect the fiber that is labeled B to the B-side DWDM receiver on the CLIP module.

Step 6   Clean and inspect the transmit DWDM fiber.

Step 7   Connect the DWDM fiber from the NAM to the center fiber input on the CLIP module (labeled with a down arrow).




Note   For detailed information how to connect the NAM to the ONS 15216 MUX/DEMUX, see the "Install the Network Adaptation Module in the ONS 15252 MCU" procedure.

Procedure: Add a Channel at Another ONS 15252 MCU


Step 1   Complete the procedures described in the "Channel Installation in an ONS 15252 MCU" procedure for a second ONS 15252 MCU.

Step 2   Check the optical power levels and make sure you have the two CLIP modules communicating with each other and not one CLIP module communication back to itself.

Step 3   At each MCU, connect the client-layer fibers:

    a. Remove the dust plugs from the CLIP module client-layer connectors.

    b. Clean and inspect the client-layer optical-fiber jumper cable connectors.

    c. Connect the CLIP module input and output to the customer-specified point.

    d. Guide the fiber through the metal fiber guide mounted over the ONS 15252, in front of the fan unit.



3.9.2 Channel Addition Using an ONS 15201 SCU

This section describes how to complete a channel by adding an ONS 15201 SCU to the ring.

Procedure: Add an ONS 15201 SCU to the Ring


Step 1   Set the switchmode for all protected CLIP modules in the ring to automatic.

    a. At the NCB:> prompt, type con clip clip_xxx (where xxx is the serial number of the CLIP module) and press Enter.

    b. Type cd dwdm and press Enter.

    c. Type list value and press Enter.

    d. Type switchmode automatic and press Enter.

    e. Type exit to quit the CLIP module.

    f. Repeat Steps a to e for all CLIP modules.

Step 2   Install the new SCU (ATO) in the equipment rack.

Step 3   Connect the new SCU power to power connector PS-1 or PS-2 (or both if redundant power supplies are used) and verify that no red LED is lit.

Step 4   Inhibit the board power alarm if you are only using one power source.

Step 5   To break the ring, disconnect the fiber connecting the ONS 15252 MCU to the ONS 15201 SCU A-side IN and OUT ports, or the fiber between two SCUs.

Step 6   Insert Rx A side and Tx B side of the line fiber. This should connect the route from A to B through the SCU (but not the other way around).

Step 7   Ensure that the A side is activated on the SCU by looking at the LED or a management interface.

Step 8   Ensure that all channels are present on the MCU B side.

Step 9   Ensure that only the expected channels are visible on the MCU A side, i.e., the channels between the new SCU and MCU A side.

Step 10   Repeat for Rx B and Tx A.

Step 11   Look at the management interface and make sure you have communication between the two CLIP modules.

Step 12   Connect the client ports of the new SCU to the appropriate client equipment.

Step 13   Make sure you have connection between the client side equipment.
