Switch-Connect New EPN to Existing PPN and
EPN (Critical Reliability)
For the following connection examp le, the PPN cabinet is called Cab inet 1, the
first EPN cabinet is called Cab inet 2, and the EPN cabinet containing t he Switch
Node Carrier is called Cabinet 4.
NOTE:
For the following example, add links to PNs in alternating order, for
example: 20 and 2, 19 and 3 , 18 and 4, and so forth.
1. At the rear of the Port Carrier in position C in Cabinet 1, install a lig htwave
transceiver onto Slot 2 (1C02). See Figure 6-17.
2. Connect a 20-foot (6 m) fiber op tic cable to the TX and RX connectors on
the transceiver. Label the c able to make the connections to Cab inet 4
easier.
3. Route the fiber cable to the Switch Node Carr ier in position D in Cabinet 4.
4. At the rear of the Switch Node Carrier in position D in Cabinet 4, install a
lightwave transceiver onto Slot 2 (4E02).
5. Connect the 20-foot (6 m) fiber op tic cable from the Port Carrier in Cabinet
1 to the TX and RX connectors on the transceiver on the Switch Nod e
Carrier in Cabinet 4. Be sure the cab le connected to the TX connector o n
1 transceiver is connec ted to the RX connector on the other transceiver
and vice versa.
6. At the rear of the Port Carrier in position D in Cabinet 1, install a lig htwave
transceiver onto Slot 2 (1D02).
7. Connect a 20-foot (6 m) fiber op tic cable to the TX and RX connectors on
the transceiver. Be sure to label the c able.
8. At the rear of the Switch Node Carrier in position D in Cabinet 4, install a
lightwave transceiver onto Slot 2 (4D02).
9. Connect the 20-foot (6 m) fiber op tic cable from the Port Carrier in position
D in Cabinet 1 to the TX and RX connectors on the transceiver. Be sure to
label the cable.
10. At the rear of the Port Carrier in position B in Cabinet 2, install a 9823A
lightwave transceiver onto Slot 2 (2B02).
11. Connect a 20-foot (6 m) fiber op tic cable to the TX and RX connectors on
the transceiver. Be sure to label the c able.
12. At the rear of the Switch Node Carrier in position D in Cabinet 4, install a
lightwave transceiver onto Slot 20 (4D20).
13. Connect the 20-foot (6 m) fiber op tic cable from the transc eiver on the
Switch Node Carrier position D in Cab inet 4. Be sure the cable connec ted
to the TX connector on 1 transceiver is conn ected to the RX connector on
the other transceiver and vic e versa.
