Important:
Do not place an electrical card (of
another type) to the left of any
10/100BaseTX-inclusive card.
In a 1:1 equipment protection scheme with a
2-slot Ethernet Protection ECM, either the
left- or right-adjacent card from the protection
card is the working card.
In an unprotected scheme, place cards in any
valid slot. The 2-slot Ethernet Protection ECM
provides access to only the right-most card, so
place an optical card in the left-most slot.
Use one of the following options when placing
any 10/100BaseTX-inclusive cards in a
Traverse shelf with DS1, DS3/E3/EC-1 CC,
DS3/EC-1 Transmux, or E1 cards:
•
Place 10/100BaseTX-inclusive cards
directly to the left of DS1, DS3/E3/EC-1
CC, DS3/EC-1 Transmux, or E1 cards. An
OC-N/STM-N card or 1-slot wide blank
faceplate is not required if the
10/100BaseTX-inclusive cards are placed
to the left of electrical interface cards.
or
•
Place an OC-N/STM-N card or a 1-slot
wide blank faceplate between the
10/100BaseTX and an electrical interface
card if the 10/100BaseTX-inclusive card is
placed to the right of the electrical interface
card.
