5 XC10G Card Specifications XC/XCVT/XC10G Compatibility The XC10G supports the same features as the XC and XCVT cross-connects The XC10G card is required for OC-192 and OC-48 any-slot operation Do not use the XCVT or XC cards if you are using the OC-192 card, or if you placed one of the OC-48 any slot cards in a multispeed slot Note A configuration mismatch alarm occurs when a XC or XCVT cross-connect card coexists with an OC-192 card placed in the high-speed slot, or with an OC-48 card placed in the multispeed slot The TCC+ card, Software R31 or higher and the new SA-ANSI shelf assembly are required for the operation of the XC10G If you are using Ethernet cards, the E G or the E100T-G must be used when the XC10G cross connect card is in use Do not pair an XC or XCVT with an XC10G When upgrading from XC or XCVT to the XC10G card, see the Cisco ONS Installation and Operations Guide for more information XC10G Card Specifications Environmental Operating Temperature: C-Temp (15454-XC-10G): 0 to +55 degrees Celsius Operating Humidity: 5-85%, non-condensing Power Consumption: 54 W, 112 amps, BTU/Hr Dimensions Height: in Width: 0716 in Depth: 9000 in Card Weight: 15 lbs, 06 kg Compliance ONS cards, when installed in a system, comply with these standards: Safety: UL 1950, CSA C222 No 950, EN 60950, IEC

6 Installation Procedures Installation Procedures Use this section if you are installing the XC10G card for the first time After you become familiar with ONS card installation and boot up, use this section as a reference Caution Always use the supplied electrostatic discharge (ESD) wristband when working with a powered ONS Plug the wristband cable into the ESD jack located on the lower right outside edge of the shelf assembly and ensure the shelf assembly is properly grounded XC10G cards have electrical plugs that plug into electrical connectors on the shelf assembly backplane When the ejectors are fully closed, the card plugs into the shelf assembly backplane Figure 3 on page 6 shows general card installation Figure 3 Installing a card in an ONS FAN FAIL CRIT MAJ MIN Ejector Guide rail 6

7 Installation Procedures Install the TCC+ and XC10G Cards Although the installation procedure is the same for both TCC+ and XC10G cards, you must install the TCC+ card first and let it initialize before installing the XC10G card This is not the procedure to use when upgrading from XCVT to XC10G cards If you are performing an XCVT to a XC10G upgrade, see the Upgrading from XC/XCVT Card to the XC10G Card section on page 9 Step 1 Step 2 Step 3 Step 4 Verify that power is applied to the shelf assembly Open the card ejectors Slide the card along the guide rails into the correct slot (Slot 8 or 10 for the XC10G and Slot 7 or 11 for the TCC+) Close the ejectors Step 5 Verify the LED activity as described in Table 3 on page 7 Table 3 LED Activity during TCC+ and XC10G Card Installation Card Type LED Activity TCC+ 1 The red FAIL LED turns on and remains lit for 20 to 30 seconds 2 The red FAIL LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds 3 The red FAIL LED remains lit for 5 to 10 seconds 4 All LEDs (including the CRIT, MAJ, MIN, REM, SYNC, and ACO LEDs) blink once and turn off for 5 to 10 seconds 5 The ACT/STBY LED turns on (On the TCC+ card, the ACT/STBY LED may take several minutes to illuminate while the DCC processor boots) XC10G 1 The red LED turns on and remains lit for 20 to 30 seconds 2 The red LED blinks for 35 to 45 seconds 3 The red LED remains lit for 5 to 10 seconds 4 All LEDs blink once and turn on 5 The ACT/STBY LED turns on Note If the FAIL LED is lit continuously on the TCC+ card, see the tip following step 6 about the TCC+ automatic upload Step 6 Verify that the ACT/STBY LED is the correct color for the card (green for active, amber for standby) The IP address for the node, the temperature of the ONS 15454, and the time of day will be displayed on the LCD The default time and date is 12:00 AM, January 1,

8 Installation Procedures Tip When a TCC+ card installed in the shelf assembly has a different version of the ONS software installed than the version running on the active TCC+, it automatically loads the software version running on the active TCC+ You do not need to do anything in this situation However, the loading TCC+ card will not boot up in the normal manner When the card is first inserted, the red FAIL LED stays on for a short period The FAIL LED then blinks normally and all LEDs go dark The FAIL LED and the ACT/STBY LED flash alternately every 30 to 45 seconds as the new software loads onto the new TCC+ card After loading the new software for approximately 30 minutes, the TCC+ card becomes the standby card and the amber LED is illuminated Card Turn Up Follow the steps in this section to verify card turn up If one or more of the LED or Cisco Transport Controller (CTC) software screen conditions are not met, see the Card Boot Up section on page 8 If the problem is not resolved, re-install the card Replace the unit if the FAIL LED persists Note Because all other cards boot from the active TCC+ card, at least one TCC+ card must be installed in order to boot the XC10G card Verify Successful Turn Up of the XC10G Card Step 1 Verify that power is applied to the shelf assembly Step 2 Install the XC10G card in the correct slot (Slot 8 or 10) Step 3 Verify that the red FAIL LED blinks for 30 to 45 seconds Step 4 Verify that after 30 to 45 seconds all LEDs blink once and turn off Step 5 Verify that the ACT/STBY LED is the correct color for the card (green for active, amber for standby) Step 6 Verify that the card appears in the correct slot on the CTC software screen Step 7 Verify that the card is white on the CTC software screen Card Boot Up After you install an ONS card in a valid card slot, the card s software automatically updates to the version that operates correctly with the system software installed on the TCC+ When the TCC+ is writing to the active or standby TCC+, its Active or Standby LED will blink To prevent memory corruption, do not pull the TCC+ out during this time You can use CTC inventory commands to configure the card software See the Cisco ONS Installation and Operations Guide for more information 8

9 Upgrading from XC/XCVT Card to the XC10G Card Upgrading from XC/XCVT Card to the XC10G Card This section explains how to upgrade dual XC/XCVT cards with dual XC10G cards in an ONS with live traffic The procedure is non-service affecting since the upgrade will cause a switch of less than 50 ms in duration Upgrade the XC/XCVT Card to the XC10G Card Upgrading XC/XCVT cards to XC10G requires that the ONS is running CTC Release 31 or later Two XC/XCVT cards must be installed in the ONS 15454, and two XC10G cards must be available for installation An XC/XCVT reset can cause a linear 1+1 OC-N protection switch or a BLSR protection switch Step 1 Step 2 Take the following precautions before performing an XC/XCVT reset to avoid causing a linear 1+1 or BLSR protection switch: a Ensure the working span is active on both the local and remote nodes b Ensure the working span is carrying error-free traffic (no SD or SF alarms present) c Lockout the protection span prior to initiating an XC/XCVT reset In a BLSR, place a lockout on the East and West cards of the nodes adjacent to the XC/XCVT switch node; for example, to switch the XC/XCVT on Node B, place the lockout on the West card of Node A and on the East card of Node C No lockout is necessary on Node B Before the lockout is set, verify that the BLSR is not switched If a lockout is set while the BLSR is switched, traffic can be lost <------East [Node A] West------East [Node B] West------East [Node C] West------> In a 1+1 protection scheme, place a lockout on the protect card and verify Determine the standby XC/XCVT card The ACT/STBY LED of the standby XC/XCVT card is amber, while the ACT/STBY LED of the active XC/XCVT card is green Note You can also place the cursor on the card graphic in CTC to display a dialog This display identifies the card as XC/XCVT: Active or XC/XCVT: Standby Step 3 Step 4 Step 5 Step 6 Physically replace the standby XC/XCVT card on the ONS with an XC10G card: a Open the XC/XCVT card ejectors b Slide the card out of the slot This raises the IMPROPRMVL alarm, which will clear when the upgrade is complete c Open the ejectors on the XC10G card d Slide the X10G card into the slot along the guide rails The fail LED above the ACT/STBY LED becomes red, blinks for several seconds, and turns off The ACT/STBY LED turns amber and stays lit e Close the ejectors In node view, choose the Maintenance > XC Cards tabs From the Cross Connect Cards menu, choose Switch Click Yes on the Confirm Switch dialog box 9

10 Optical Card Protection Note After the active XC/XCVT disengages, the standby slot or first XC10G card becomes active This causes the ACT/STBY LED on the first XC10G card to change from amber to green Step 7 Step 8 Physically remove the now standby XC/XCVT card from the ONS and insert the second XC10G card into the empty XC/XCVT slot: a Open the XC/XCVT card ejectors b Slide the card out of the slot c Open the ejectors on the XC10G d Slide the XC10G card into the slot along the guide rails e Close the ejectors The upgrade is complete when the second XC10G card boots up and becomes the standby XC10G Release the protection lockout Optical Card Protection The ONS supports 1+1 protection to create redundancy for optical cards With 1+1 protection, one optical port can protect another optical port; therefore, in any two high-speed slots a single working card and a single dedicated protect card of the same type (for example, two XC10G cards) can be paired for protection If the working port fails, the protect port takes over 1+1 span protection can be either revertive or non-revertive With non-revertive 1+1 protection, when a failure occurs and the signal switches from the working card to the protect card, the signal stays switched to the protect card until it is manually switched back Revertive 1+1 protection automatically switches the signal back to the working card when the working card comes back online You create and modify protection schemes using CTC software For more information, see the Cisco ONS Installation and Operations Guide Related Documentation DOC = Cisco ONS Installation and Operations Guide DOC = Cisco ONS Troubleshooting and Maintenance Guide Obtaining Documentation and Submitting a Service Request For information on obtaining documentation, submitting a service request, and gathering additional information, see the monthly What s New in Cisco Product Documentation, which also lists all new and revised Cisco technical documentation, at: 10
