DLP-F300 Install Fiber-Optic Cables for SNCP Configurations

Purpose	This task installs the fiber-optic cables to the SNCP ports at each node. See
	Chapter 5, “Turn Up a Network.” to provision and test SNCP
	configurations.
Tools/Equipment	Fiber-optic cables
Prerequisite Procedures	NTP-F119 Install the STM-N Cards, page 2-4
	NTP-F231 Clean Fiber Connectors and Adapters, page 14-16
Required/As Needed	As needed
Onsite/Remote	Onsite
Security Level	None

Caution To avoid loss of traffic, do not create an SNCP using two ports on the same card. You can create an SNCP on different ports on the same side of the shelf, but Cisco recommends using one port on one side of the shelf and another port on the opposite side.

Note See Table 16-1 on page 16-19and Table 16-2 on page 16-19for OGI connector pinouts of STM-16 and STM-64 cards.

Step 1 Plug the fiber into the transmit (Tx) connector of an STM-N card at one node and plug the other end of the fiber into the receive (Rx) connector of an STM-N card at the adjacent node. The card will display an SF LED if the transmit and receive fibers are mismatched (one fiber connects a receive port on one card to a receive port on another card, or the same situation with transmit ports).

Step 2 Repeat Step 1 until you have configured the ring.

Step 3 Return to your originating procedure (NTP).
