Step 1 Verify that two TCC2 cards are installed in Slots 7 and 11.

Step 2 Verify that the green ACT (active) LED is illuminated on one TCC2 and the amber STBY (standby) LED is illuminated on the second TCC2.

Note If the TCC2 cards are not installed, or if their LEDs are not operating as described, do not proceed. Repeat the “DLP-D332 Install the TCC2 Cards” task on page 2-7 , or refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Guide to resolve installation problems before proceeding to Step 3.

If you are provisioning the ONS 15454 for DWDM only, continue with Step 16. Otherwise, continue with the next step.

Step 3 Verify that cross-connect cards (XC10G, XC-VXL-2.5G, or XC-VXL-10G) are installed in Slots 8 and 10. The cross-connect cards must be the same type.

Step 4 Verify that the green ACT (active) LED is illuminated on one cross-connect card and the amber STBY (standby) LED is illuminated on the second cross-connect card.

Note If the cross-connect cards are not installed, or if their LEDs are not illuminated as described, do not proceed. Repeat the “DLP-D333 Install the XC10G, XCVXL 10G, or XCVXL 2.5G Cards” task on page 2-9, or refer to the Cisco ONS 15454 SDH Troubleshooting Manual to resolve installation problems before proceeding to Step 5.

If you are provisioning the ONS 15454 for DWDM and TDM (hybrid node), continue with Step 16. Otherwise, continue with the next step.

Step 5 If your site plan requires an AIC-I card, verify that the AIC-I card is installed in Slot 9 and its ACT (active) LED displays a solid green light.
