Installing Cisco ONS 15540 ESP Hardware

Installing SM Transponder Modules or MM Transponder Modules

Perform the following procedure to install SM transponder modules or MM transponder modules.

Step 1 Remove the dust covers from the module, and clean the optical connectors. See the “Cleaning Optical Connectors” section on page 2-28 .

Step 2 Lift the latch handle on the transponder module and insert the module carefully into the motherboard slot while guiding the upper and lower edges of the module in the tracks until its connectors come into contact with the backplane connectors. You hear a click when it is connected.

Step 3 Push the latch on the module down to secure the module in place.

Table 2-4lists the LEDs for the extended range transponder module.
