1.12 Card Installation
This section describes the how to install ONS 15454 cards. The procedure for installing ONS 15454
cards is nearly identical for each card. AIC card installation is slightly different from all other cards and
is described in its own procedure. The XC/XCVT /XC10G and TCC+ installation procedures are
virtually identical and are described in one procedure. Installatio n for a ll o ther ca rds is th e same and i s
covered by one procedure.
The order in which you install cards is important. T he p rop er sequ en ce f oll ows:
1. TCC+ cards
2. XC/XCVT/XC10G cards
3. Optical cards
4. Electrical cards
5. Ethernet cards
6. AIC card
Note Because all other cards boot from the active TCC+ card which houses the ONS 15 454 software, you
must install the TCC+ card before booting any other cards. See Chapter2, Software Installation
for information about the TCC+ card and software ve rsion s.
Note Before installing cards, verify that the power is turned on.
ONS 15454 cards have electrical plugs at the back that plug into electrical connectors on the shelf
assembly backplane. When the ejectors are fully clo sed , the ca rd plu gs in to the assem bly backp lane .

directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.
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.
