Step 8 Physically reroute the other protect fiber so it connects the two end nodes. In t he Fi gure 5-38 example,
the fiber between Node 1/Slot 5 and Node 2/Slot 5 is rero uted to co nne ct Node 1 /Slot 5 to No de
3/Slot/ 13.
If you are leaving the OC-N cards in place, go to Step 13. If you are removing the cards, compl ete Steps
