DLP- E109 Drill Holes to Anchor and Provide Access to the Bay Assembly

c.Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box.

Step 4 Verify that the working slot is carrying traffic (Working/Active).

Note If the slot is not active, look for conditions or alarms that might be preventing the card from carrying working traffic. Refer to the Cisco ONS 15600 Troubleshooting Guide for procedures to clear alarms.

Step 5 When the working port is carrying traffic, clear the Manual switch:

a.In the Switch Commands field, choose Clear.

b.Click Yes in the confirmation dialog box.

Step 6 Verify that the working port does not revert to Standby, which might indicate a problem on the working span.

Step 7 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).

DLP-E109 Drill Holes to Anchor and Provide Access to the Bay Assembly

Purpose

This procedure describes how to use the floor template to locate and drill

 

the appropriate holes that are needed to anchor and provide additional

 

access to the bay assembly at your site.

Tools/Equipment

Floor template (53-2141-XX)

 

Marking pen

 

Concrete drill

 

Reciprocating saw

Prerequisite Procedures

NTP-E1 Unpack and Inspect the ONS 15600 Bay Assembly, page 1-4

Note If the bay will use wide cable routing modules (CRMs) for cable routing, you need to use 900-mm (35.4-in) spacing between bays.

Step 1 Determine the proper location of your bay:

a.For a 900-mm (35.4-inch) wide bay, position the floor template so that corner indicators “B” fall where you want the corners of the bay to reside (Figure 17-1).

b.For a 600-mm (23.6-inch) wide bay, position the floor template so that corner indicators “A” fall where you want the corners of the bay to reside (Figure 17-1).

Note If space allows, Cisco recommends you reserve an additional 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) of space on each side of the bay assembly you are installing.
