Warning Do not reach into a vacant slot or chassis while you install or remove a module or a fan. Exposed circuitry could constitute an energy hazard.
Caution Removing any active card from the ONS 15454 can result in traffic interruption. Use caution when replacing cards and verify that only inactive or standby cards are being replaced. If the active card needs to be replaced, follow the steps below to switch the XC/XCVT/XC10G card to standby prior to removing the card from the node.
Note An improper removal (IMPROPRMVL) alarm is raised whenever a card pull is performed, unless the card is deleted in CTC first. The alarm will clear after the card replacement is complete.
Note In a UPSR, pulling the active XC/XCVT/XC10G without a lockout will cause UPSR circuits to switch.
Step 1 Log into the node where you will perform the XC/XCVT/XC10G card replacement:
a. From your PC, start Netscape or Internet Explorer.
b. In the Netscape or Internet Explorer Web address (URL) field, enter the ONS 15454 IP address. For initial setup, this is the default address, 192.1.0.2. Press Enter.
Note If you are logging into ONS 15454 nodes running different releases of CTC software, log into the node running the most recent release. If you log into a node with an older release, you receive an INCOMPATIBLE-SW alarm and the IP address of the login node will display instead of the node name. To check the software version of a node, select About CTC from the CTC Help menu.
A Java Console window displays the CTC file download status. The web browser displays information about your Java and system environments.
c. In the Login dialog box, type your name and password (both are case sensitive).
d. Each time you log into an ONS 15454, you can make selections on the following login options:
•Node Name—Displays the IP address entered in the web browser and a pull-down menu of previously-entered ONS 15454 IP addresses. You can select any ONS 15454 on the list for the login, or you can enter the IP address (or node name) of any new node where you want to log in.
•Additional Nodes—Displays a list of login node groups that were created. To create a login node group or add additional groups, see the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.)
Note Topology hosts that were created in previous ONS 15454 releases by modifying the ctc.ini file are displayed as a "Topology Host" group under Additional Nodes.
•Exclude Dynamically Discovered Nodes—Check this box to view only the ONS 15454 (and login node group members, if any) entered in the Node Name field. Nodes linked to the Node Name ONS 15454 through the DCC are not displayed. Using this option can decrease the CTC startup time in networks with many DCC-connected nodes.
e. Click Login.
Step 2 Ensure the working span is active on both local and remote nodes:
a. In node view, click the Maintenance > Ring tabs.
b. Locate the applicable span.
c. In the West Line and East Line columns, the working/active span is identified by (Work/Act).
Step 3 Ensure the working span is carrying error-free traffic (no SD or SF alarms present). Display the network view and click the Alarms tab to display alarms.
Step 4 Lockout the protection span according to the specific protection scheme:
a. Lockout the protection span in a BLSR protection scheme:
–In node (default) view, click the Maintenance > Ring tabs.
–Locate the applicable span.
–In the West Line and East Line columns, the working/active span is identified by (Work/Act). Place a lockout on the East and West cards of the nodes adjacent to the XC switch node; for example, to switch the XC on Node B, place a lockout on the West card of Node A and on the East card of Node C, no lockout is necessary on Node B. Before the lockout is set, verify that the BLSR is not switched. If a lockout is set while the BLSR is switched, traffic can be lost.
<------East [Node A] West------East [Node B] West------East [Node C] West------>
b. Lockout the protection span in a 1+1 protection scheme:
–In node (default) view, click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
–Choose the affected 1+1 protection group from the Protection Groups window.
–In the Selected Group window, the working and protect spans appear. Choose the protect/standby card and choose Lockout from the inhibit switching row.
–Click Yes on the confirmation dialog box.
Note An XC/XCVT/XC10G reset can cause a linear 1+1 OC-N protection switch or a BLSR protection switch.
c. Lockout the protection span in a UPSR protection scheme:
–In network view, right-click the span where you want to switch UPSR traffic. Choose Circuits from the shortcut menu.
–On the Circuits on Span dialog box, choose FORCE.
Caution The FORCE command overrides normal protective switching mechanisms. Applying this command incorrectly can cause traffic outages.
Step 5 When the protection span has been locked out, determine the active XC/XCVT/XC10G card. The ACT/STBY LED of the active card is green. The ACT/STBY LED of the standby card is amber.
Note You can also place the cursor over the card graphic to display a pop-up identifying the card as active or standby.
Step 6 Switch the active XC/XCVT/XC10G card to standby:
a. In the node view, click the Maintenance > XC Cards tabs.
b. Under Cross Connect Cards, choose Switch.
c. Click Yes on the Confirm Switch dialog box.
Note After the active XC/XCVT/XC10G goes into standby, the original standby slot becomes active. This causes the ACT/STBY LED to become green on the former standby card.
Step 7 Physically remove the new standby XC/XCVT/XC10G card from the ONS 15454.
Step 8 Insert the replacement XC/XCVT/XC10G card into the empty slot.
The replacement card boots up and becomes ready for service after approximately one minute.
Step 9 Release the protection lockout(s) applied in Step 4:
a. Log into the node where you will clear the Lock Out.
b. Click the Maintenance > Protection tabs.
c. Under Protection Groups, click the protection group that contains the card you want to clear.
d. Under Selected Group, click the card you want to clear.
e. From Inhibit Switching, click Unlock.
f. Click Yes on the confirmation dialog box.
The lock out is cleared.

Step 2 See the "Replace the Fan-Tray Assembly" section to replace the fan-tray assembly or the "Inspect and Replace the Disposable Air Filter" section to replace the alarm interface panel.
3.5 Replace the Fan-Tray Assembly
To replace the fan-tray assembly (FTA), it is not necessary to move any of the cable management facilities. You can remove the fan-tray assembly using the retractable handles and replace it by pushing until it plugs into the receptacle on the back panel.
Caution The 15454-FTA3 fan-tray assembly can only be installed in ONS 15454 Release 3.1 and later shelf assemblies (15454-SA-ANSI, P/N: 800-19857). It includes a pin that does not allow it to be installed in ONS 15454 shelf assemblies released before ONS 15454 Release 3.1 (15454-SA-NEBS3E, 15454-SA-NEBS3, and 15454-SA-R1, P/N: 800-07149). Equipment damage can result from attempting to install the 15454-FTA3 in a non-compatible shelf assembly.
Caution Do not force a fan-tray assembly into place. Doing so can damage the connectors on the fan tray and/or the connectors on the back panel of the shelf assembly.
Note The 15454-SA-ANSI shelf assembly and 15454-FTA3 fan-tray assembly are required with the ONS 15454 XC-10G, OC-192, and OC-48 any slot (AS) cards.
Step 1 Open the front door of the shelf assembly:
a. Open the front door lock.
The ONS 15454 comes with a pinned hex key for locking and unlocking the front door. Turn the key counterclockwise to unlock the door and clockwise to lock it.
b. Press the door button to release the latch.
c. Swing the door open.
Step 2 Remove the front door (optional). If you do not want to remove the door, proceed to Step 3:
a. Detach the ground strap from either the door or the chassis by removing one of the Kepnuts.
b. Place the Kepnut back on the stud after the ground strap is removed to avoid misplacement.
c. Secure the dangling end of the ground strap to the door or chassis with tape.
Step 3 Push the outer side of the handles on the fan-tray assembly to expose the handles.
Step 4 Fold out the retractable handles at the outside edges of the fan tray.
Step 5 Pull the handles and slide the fan-tray assembly one inch out of the shelf assembly and wait until the fans stop.
Step 6 When the fans have stopped, pull the fan-tray assembly completely out of the shelf assembly. Figure 3-4 shows the location of the fan tray.
Step 7 If you are replacing the fan-tray air filter and it is installed beneath the fan-tray assembly, slide the existing air filter out of the shelf assembly and replace it before replacing the fan-tray assembly.
If you are replacing the fan-tray air filter and it is installed in the external bottom bracket, you can slide the existing air filter out of the bracket and replace it at anytime. For more information on the fan-tray air filter, see the "Replace the Air Filter" section.
Step 8 Slide the new fan tray into the shelf assembly until the electrical plug at the rear of the tray plugs into the corresponding receptacle on the backplane.
Step 9 To verify that the tray has plugged into the backplane, check that the LCD on the front of the fan tray is activated.

Caution Do not use a 2A AIP with a 5A fan-tray assembly; doing so will cause a blown fuse on the AIP.
Caution There is a risk of Ethernet traffic disruptions. Contact the Cisco Technical Assistance Center (TAC) at 877-323-7368 when prompted to do so in the procedure.
Caution Always use the supplied ESD wristband when working with a powered ONS 15454. Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower-right outside edge of the shelf assembly.
Note Perform this procedure in a maintenance window. Resetting the active TCC+ can cause a service disruption of less then 50 ms to OC-N or DS-N traffic. Resetting the active TCC+ will cause a service disruption of 3-5 minutes on all Ethernet traffic due to Spanning Tree Reconvergence.
Step 1 Ensure that all nodes in the affected network are running the same software version before replacing the AIP and repairing circuits:
a. Log into CTC. See Step 1 in the "Switch Traffic and Replace an In-Service Cross-Connect Card" procedure for instructions.
b. In network view, click the Maintenance > Software tabs. The working software version for each node is listed in the Working Version column.
c. If you need to upgrade the software on a node, refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 Software Upgrade Guide for software upgrade procedures. No hardware should be changed or circuit repair performed until after the software upgrade is complete. If you do not need to upgrade software or have completed the software upgrade, proceed to Step 2.
Step 2 Record the MAC address of the old AIP:
a. Log into the node where you will replace the AIP. For login procedures, see the Cisco ONS 15454 Procedure Guide.
b. In node view, click on the Provisioning > Network tabs.
c. Record the MAC address shown in the General tab in Figure 3-5.
Figure 3-5 Find the MAC address
Step 3 Call Cisco TAC at 877-323-7368 for assistance in replacing the AIP and maintaining the original MAC address.
Step 4 Unscrew the five screws that hold the lower backplane cover in place ( Figure 3-6).
Step 5 Grip the lower backplane cover and gently pull away from the backplane.
Figure 3-6 Lower backplane cover
Step 6 Unscrew the two screws that hold the AIP cover in place.
Step 7 Grip the cover and gently pull away from the backplane.
Note On the 15454-SA-NEBS3E, 15454-SA-NEBS3, and 15454-SA-R1 (P/N: 800-07149) shelves the AIP cover is clear plastic. On the 15454-SA-ANSI shelf (P/N: 800-19857), the AIP cover is metal.
Step 8 Grip the AIP and gently pull away from the backplane.
Step 9 Disconnect the fan-tray assembly power cable from the AIP.
Step 10 Set the old AIP aside for return to Cisco.
Caution The type of shelf the AIP resides in will determine the version of AIP that will replace the failed AIP. The 15454-SA-ANSI shelf (P/N: 800-19857) currently uses the 5A AIP, (P/N: 73-7665-01). The 15454-SA-NEBS3E, 15454-SA-NEBS3, and 15454-SA-R1 (P/N: 800-07149) shelves and lower currently use the 2A AIP (P/N: 73-5262-01).
Caution Do not put a 2A AIP (P/N: 73-5262-01) into a 15454-SA-ANSI shelf (P/N: 800-19857); doing so will cause a blown fuse on the AIP.
Step 11 Attach the fan-tray assembly power cable to the new AIP.
Step 12 Place the new AIP on the backplane by plugging the panel into the backplane using the DIN connector.
Step 13 Replace the AIP cover over the AIP and secure the cover with the two screws.
Step 14 Replace the lower backplane cover and secure the cover with the five screws.

Step 1 To remove the lower backplane cover, loosen the five screws that secure it to the ONS 15454 and pull it away from the shelf assembly ( Figure 3-6).
Step 2 Loosen the nine perimeter screws that hold the backplane sheet metal cover or EIA in place. Do not remove the interior screws.
Note If you are removing an AMP Champ EIA, remove the fastening plate before proceeding. To remove the fastening plate, loosen the two thumbscrews.
Step 3 If a backplane cover is attached to the ONS 15454, lift the panel by the bottom to remove it from the shelf assembly and store the panel for later use.
Step 4 If an EIA is attached to the ONS 15454, lift the EIA handles and gently pull the EIA panel away from the backplane.
Note Attach backplane sheet metal covers whenever EIAs are not installed.
Step 5 Line up the connectors on the new EIA with the mating connectors on the backplane.
Step 6 Gently push the EIA until both sets of connectors fit together snugly.
Step 7 Replace the nine perimeter screws that you removed while removing the backplane cover.
Step 8 If you are installing an AMP Champ EIA, attach the fastening plate with the two thumbscrews.
